And that the locals in your area know you hate the redsox and their whiney fans, and lately you have been getting swamped by the sunami waves, passing cars have generated whenever they see you making another beerrun on your bicycle.... Those winter time slush sunami's have to be some cold heavy waves ..... Lookout for those 18 wheelers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap Throwing Monkey Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I did not understand the rolling eyes smilie. I do my part to help out. What do you do to help out the energy crisis? BTW girls love my legs and hotties pick me up all the time("I see you biking everywhere- you have the nicest calves" is a typical pickup line) - so yeah, I am pretty damn special 474655[/snapback] Yeah, I used to bike 80 miles a week before my knee went all to hell. But I never pranced around on a message board like a damned idiot thinking I was special for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UConn James Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 BTW the Connecticut rivers runs about 50 yards behind my backyard 474875[/snapback] I live on a lake (has a dam runoff tho) and it's the highest it's ever been, and with whitecaps to boot. Want some help filling sandbags? Or does he expect the government to just pay to rebuild his house when it eventually flood. 474938[/snapback] Why not?

UConn James Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Those aren't the conservatives. 474949[/snapback] Yup. When money is dangled before conservatives when natural disaster strikes, be it in La., Missouri farm flooding subsidies, and a thousand other examples, they don't take it. There aren't very many conservatives in this country, if you go by deeds rather than belief. Belief applies only to Other People. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
