To the moon, troll, to the moon!

[CHR]

During the cold war, JFK claimed to have gone to the moon. He got congress to spend billions on his moon landing and pretended america landed there, convincing congress to give him billions, the fakeness of the landing is well documented.

It seems to me that this liberal moneybags, that he took these billions for personal use, or maybe gave them to the USSR (we all know he was soft on communism)

Perhaps his death was similarly staged in order to keep his billions or keep congress of his case.

I wonder if under an obama administration we will see more moon landings.

"Who did you steal it from?"

My boss. I was making change from the till. A customer had purchased $173.01 worth of merchandise, and paid with two hundred dollar bills.

I gave him $27.00 even in change, and told my boss what I was doing.

I was being lazy. Rather than count out $26.99 to give him, I did it the easy way.

Link to lights in the southern US.

That's what we all might get this weekend. Send Pat out to check on Sunday.

We won't here. It's winter, which is the season of perpetually cloudy skies. As opposed to spring, summer and fall which are also seasons of perpetually cloudy skies.

Well okay, maybe not summer.

Do you have a BBQ? Cake is good on the BBQ.

Cake on the barbie -- hmmm... gas or charcoal, and if charcoal then direct or indirect method?

I keep asking LoM for BBQ eggs but never get any.

Balderdash!

You provided an extra service to the customer!

"I keep asking LoM for BBQ eggs but never get any."

My nephew fed his chickens cayenne peppers. He claims they laid boiled eggs.

Not to mention to his employer! It takes a while to count out 99 cents...

99 pennies to come from the till,
99 pennies to go,
pull one from the drawer, make sure there's still more,
98 pennies to come from the till.

98 pennies to come from the till,
...

This way he's on to the next customer much sooner.

I’m glad you approve. Next week I’m borrowing his checkbook.

[sionnsar]

Will you be returning it filled up?

[ThomasThomas]

You do mean filling up the registrar found in the back of some check books?

[ThomasThomas]

Would it be wrong of me to have an inflatable “Achmed the Dead Terrorist” yard decoration?

I think Achmed would leak.

[sionnsar]

I’ve never found a registrar in the back of a check book. Usually she’s sitting behind a table.

Would it be wrong of me to have an inflatable "Achmed the Dead Terrorist" yard decoration?

Yes it would.

The proper transcription of the name is "Ahmed."

[AnAmericanMother]

Oh, what a pretty dog!

I do like the color, think it's red brindle but the greyhound folks will have to correct me if I'm wrong.

Is she settling in o.k.?

(at least your slippers (almost) match her collar!)

[ThomasThomas]

I think I have a table in my checkbook.

[NicknamedBob]

"I think I have a table in my checkbook."

That must make it difficult to carry.

[NicknamedBob]

The proper transcription of the name is "Ahmed."

Nobody would recognize that. Did I mention that it's a blow-up decoration?

[Tax-chick]

The description that came with her just said “Brindle,” which sounds better than “mottled” :-). I heard her whining in her crate this morning around 7:00 and sent DP to make Anoreth get up. She’s lived with gnawing gerbils so long that she can sleep through anything!

[AnAmericanMother]

LOL!

Our younger dog barked until she got a bark collar, now she whines.

Here's the color chart for Greyhounds:

We had a gerbil that chewed PVC plumbing pipe. If the door was open, it echoed through the whole house.

It looks like Ash is just “brindle.” Although the colors aren’t perfectly clear in those illustrations, she looks darker than red brindle but lighter than dark brindle.
