A handful? He ate a freaking handful?
He would have been better off reading a book.
the author is too young to know about “flying”
But it was a GREAT parking place.
My fear of tall buildings is easily explained; I was in the World Trade Center in 1993 when it was bombed.
Tripsitter. Sheesh. Kids these days.
Old Man: You worry about yourself. Are you ready for him?
[refers to Calvera]
Old Man: What if he comes now, huh?
Vin: Reminds me of that fellow back home that fell off a ten story building.
Chris: What about him?
Vin: Well, as he was falling people on each floor kept hearing him say, “So far, so good.” Tch... So far, so good!
—Steve McQueen (as Vin Tanner) in The Magnificent Seven
I guess you could say the guy had a bad trip-and he’s definitely a Darwin nominee...
Only did mushrooms once-at a party at a college friend’s apartment-on the ground floor-and that was enough of a trip for me-several people went out and wandered around in the courtyard-two got into the pool naked and had to be dragged back inside by those few of us still thinking straight-I never did them again...
Or Lenny Kravitz “I’LL FY AWAY...”
31st & Lex is right near National Review hq. Perhaps he was really depressed over the magazine’s wretched disintegration.
Or the Rocky theme, “Gonna Fly Now!”
My son’s assistant lacrosse coach years ago was about 45-50 years old or so. Drove a Masaratti. I asked my son what the coach did for a living. My son said he was a teacher! I laughed and said - “I doubt it!”
Well, turns out he had retired from Microsoft. Graduated from High School and went to Alaska and started a bank at the age of 19. Was recruited by the feds and ran some department for them in his early 20’s. Then went to Microsoft in their financial department for awhile, retired, likes kids so he taught and coached, etc.
He ran for local office here and is real conservative. Which doesn’t work well in the Seattle area.
He was heard to yell something like "shiitake".
LOL!
Play stupid games....
Sheesh! Glad I am not the unfortunate neighbor who had to find this on the balcony in the morning.
Prayers up for the dead fellow’s family.
I smoked some hashish laced with what I later learned had been laced with some psychedelic drugs, then went to the theater to see “2001: A Space Odyssey” (this was 1970 and I was a High School Senior).
I just about freaked out during the “Star Gate sequence”; I swore I was falling out of my chair (for all I know, I did). Don’t remember much of the movie experience after that. On the way home I remember staring at a dumpster and thought it was two old women arguing.
At no point in history has any government ever wanted its people to be defenseless for any good reason ~ nully's son
Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
I remember the story of the one banker/investor who decided to play with a train.
