I swear when I see tats all up and down someone’s arm like in that photo, the first thing that comes to my mind is he/she is wearing a flowered blouse, or sleeves....

Seriously. In 1976, first and second year residents were permitted to belong to the union. Once I became a third year, I was considered a supervisor and no longer eligible.

looks like he WORE sleeves to cover his arm since his sunburn is more severe in the belly and chest region! yuck! saw way too many disgusting people in revealing garb at the amusement park. you seriously have to wonder what some of those women are thinking when they leave the house looking like that!
oh there was someone similar to the pictured rednecks, at hersheypark, with his girlfriend, wearing a t-shirt that said on the front of it “i’m a keeper”... upon catching sight of him, the kids and i exchanged glances and started to ROAR! they couldn’t wait to tell their father how mommy didn’t even wait til the guy was past to basically laugh in his face. Of course, xshub, who wasn’t with us, didn’t GET IT, thinking that the guy was indicating he was a member of the “promisekeepers” RME!

You two (three) Pittsburghers.... Willie posted about a local sandwich the other day - his Mom took shaved ham and made a sort of sloppy joe with it....Did either of you experience that local quisine growing up?

Oh and XS, I buy Mrs. T's pierogies (frozen) here...

No. Just a generic politician. And Obama will surely come to hate the media by the end of his term. They all do.

isly’s chipped ham fried up with ketchup, yessirree bob, that was a sammich of my youth! i am not surprised you buy mrs T’s that is what i buy also. not bad for storebought. the best part of homemade is the dough is more delicate and not so rubbery.

Most are happy with TO at first...he does have talent, but quickly his temper tantrums and attitude begins to show and he becomes an embarrassment

There is some kind of disconnect in some people - anorexics look at themselves and see fat, where we see skin and bones.... and women who wear revealing clothing with all sorts of body parts/rolls falling out and think they look good are almost like the opposite end of the spectrum... both types are mentally ill

Well some of the folks on the Texas board were attacking Willie regarding the sandwich but it sounded interesting to me - he did say chipped and couldn’t find it here and I suggested he request “shaved” ham thinking that might get closer to the consistency. His mom made some sort of sauce with pickle relish and catsup - sort of like a bbq sauce - so of course I’ve been craving some kind of ham/bbq sauce sandwich since then... lol

Well you know my fetish of chopped meat - twice ground beef, chicken - so the chopped/chipped ham sounds cool to me!

I think they really don't realize that some curves are NOT really attractive.
