Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.
The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.
The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....
you said penile...
flight originated in DC. i don't know where the lasers are originating from. i read those threads and someone claiming to know acted like it would be easy for a KID to do it with a toy. i find that impossible to believe.
Well, she did one good thing. My evil stepmother made the GREATEST gingerbread cookies (less ginger than usual) and I found out recently that the recipe was Martha Stewart's.
i make gingersnaps, from a recipe in Joy of Cooking. wonder what your stepmommy's recipe looks like.
The figure the beam came from Warrensville Heights Ohio. An east side burb about 15-20 miles from the airport. I used to work in Warrensville Heights, it's not a place I'd like to have car trouble at night.
hmmmmm.... did you see how Al Queda is now supposed to be in cahoots with Latin Gangs? especially mentioned was MS13, which is HUGE in DC and a huge problem. any latin gangs in that area?
55 here, but overcast and gloomy-I've got to go to the grocery store, too, and since I'm going to have to make a 40 mile round trip to do it, I'm taking a camera along to snap a picture of a cute sign in front of a tavern on the highway.
See Martha Stewart's recipe, that's precisely what she uses.
beauty is in the eye of the beholder arghy and i think you are beeyootiful : )
It's almost like "LOSER" has become a good thing, in their silly little minds.
The future of our Country? God help us !
a martha stewart in training is in the kitchen. she is baking the dog dish that she painted for Loosh. apparently you have to bake it to get the paint to set.
I don't hate Martha Stewart, either-even though I used to get pissed when I'd try a recipe I saw her make on her show and it didn't turn out looking like hers at all...
Isn't this your recipe book, I mean it is you on the cover.
You are FAR too kind, missy. If I got into your beholder's eye, you'd sing a different tune, but thank you.
Not that I have heard of. I would be suprised if Warrensville Hts doesn't have some members of Farakahan's cult the Nation of Islam.
Lucky Loosh. How's the little tyke doing these days, anyway? Give him his Uncle Arghie's best wishes.
But Children's Hour is long over,
And yet you are still bright eyed.
Youve had your bath and your story,
And now youre a pain in my back side.
Mommys wearing a diaphanous nightie,
And my favorite black lacy thong,
But youre here resisting your bedtime,
And something is horribly wrong.
Do you think, O blue-eyed Banditti,
That youll deprive Daddy of nookie?
Im putting bourbon in your warm milk,
And Qualuudes into your cookie.
Happy New Year!!
As we approach the final weekend of the NFL season, many of us still hold diaphonous hopes that our team will be playoff-bound come Monday morning. (the Bills for yours truly)
[After all, it's live a fan-us, die a fan-us...]
You know the rule Arghy - picture please...........
