Geoffy do we have to hear about your thongs?

I love to hear about JG's thing, I mean THONG.

Why? You get to see his thongs when he cleans your pool.

Fat people don't have to "take it." They are perfectly capable of throwing their weight around.

BOLINGBROOK, Ill. - Drew Peterson, a former Illinois police sergeant long suspected in the disappearance of his fourth wife, was arrested Thursday on a murder charge in the death of his third wife.

Peterson, 55, was taken into custody Thursday evening during a traffic stop in Bolingbrook, according to Will County state's attorney's office spokesman Chuck Pelkie. An indictment accuses him of murdering Kathleen Savio.

well thats good he is arrested, but unless they have tough evidence that can prove it he will be a free man.

I just heard this story. Honestly, I can't say I'm surprised. It's hard not to jump to conclusions because the guy is such a jerk (that's not really fair is it? No law against being a jerk), BUT I had a feeling he'd get arrested sooner or later. He always seems so arrogant and cocky to me.

Speaking of Peterson, did I hear the other wife-murdering scumbag Scott Peterson is being asked to do some reality show or something? Anyone hear anything about that? How can he do that?


TIS

i did hear that, but why or how idk.

Maybe Blib knows. Isn't Scotty from his neck of the woods in Nothern Cal? We have no murdering scumbags in SoCal. Well, maybe Manson

Seriously, I think he's in San Francisco.

Actually, being a jerk in the form of testimony could find its way into a courtroom. Perterson on TV - I don't know about that. I don't think the penal system allows it except as an informational documentary. In any case, it might injure his appeal.

In Australia, we also have thongs that go on your feet. I think you call them, Flip Flops???

Holy Cannoli...you talk about thongs and San Francisco in the shoutbox...then you open this thread and find the same stuff...creepy

Anyone heard Lebron James talking about his mother while receiving the MVP award? I know he's not the first athlete to mention his mother, but that was very emotional. As far as I'm concerned, he's a true champion whether he wins this championship or not. (and I'll be rooting for the Celtics)

I love my job.

This is mostly for Beth.

Tonight I was at a 50th birthday party for a friend. One of her guests was Glenn Ressler, who played for the Baltimore Colts as a starting left guard in the mid-60s to mid-70s. Now in his 60s he still looked like he could play. I was embarrassed that his name was unfamiliar to me, and even more embarrassed when I learned after the party that he won the 1964 Maxwell Award for the nation's best collegiate football player when he played OL and DL for a young Joe Paterno in Penn State. He was wearing his Super Bowl V ring, but it was interesting to hear him talk about Unitas, Namath, Bubba Smith, Don Shula, Chuck Noll and Vince Lombardi.

Have you heard of him, Beth. He's before your time.

I have just spent a lovely Saturday morning buying new trainers(sneakers) for my 3 boys. I seriously can't think of a more hideous,patience-testing exercise in the world. To cap it off it started raining when we were out and i had no coat on,it being bright and sunny when we left the house!!

This afternoon i was going to take the same 3 suspects for hair cuts but i may postpone that till next week-end and drink beer in the house instead

Off to my best friend's wedding... cya!

That sounds like a plan

Kill two birds with one stone. Drink beer, then give the kiddies a hair cut yourself.

That's a great idea, Beth. Yogi, if you do a thorough job you won't have to give them another haircut for about 3 months!

"more hideous,patience-testing exercise..."? Try shopping with daughters like I did several times. It doesn't matter - shoes, jeans, dresses, jewelry, even food. It is the ultimate exercise in patience, forebearance, and hopelessness. You commit to maybe an hour and end up spending most of your day.

Yogi, Olivant has you beat ten fold. He is absolutely correct - shopping with women and or girls is the ultimate in frustration...and God help you if you are asked for and actually voice your opinion! The wrong response could result in another two hours of hell! If Bush really wanted to torture terror suspects, he would have sent them to a mall with a mom, her daughter, three no limit credit cards and two of the daughter's BFF's!

That's how I feel when I go with the Col. to stores like Gander Mountain, Cabela's etc. It's a pain trying to get him out of the store.

My niece went shopping with her mom for her prom gown. No matter how many stores they went to, they couldn't agree on a dress. There were fights, tears, the usual nonsense. They returned from another pointless shopping trip, when my brother grabbed my niece and a book and headed to the mall. He sat on a bench outside Lord and Taylor and told my niece, "I'm going to sit here and read my book. Here's my credit card. The store closes in one hour. Either you come back with a dress before the store closes, or you don't go to prom."

She came back with a beautiful dress, and with 10 minutes to spare, no less.

This should be followed by "And that's a true story, Kay"

SB, that is a great story! I will remember that one next year when prom time rolls around!

svsg, I never realized that it sounded like the Luca story until you pointed that out!

I wish I had followed it last year when I was shopping with my daughter. I actually made the mistake of thinking we would bond and have fun.

Luckily for me Nicole was in a wedding the year of her prom. She wore that dress for her prom, so I lucked out bit time.

Wait a minute! You actually expect us to believe that you got a teenage girl to wear a USED dress? It would be easier to believe that Michael Corleone only sold olive oil.

It actually was her idea. The prom was before the wedding, so in fact the Wedding dress was used. I paid for it so it was justification for paying so much money for a dress. She got more than one use out of it.

She's actually thinking of taking it to a tailor's to get it cut to a regular dress length.

I got a business card cuz I wanna win some lunches... That's what my business card says, ‘Mitch Hedberg: Potential Lunch Winner.’ Give me a call, maybe we'll have lunch... if I'm lucky.
