All fine and dandy, but it is entitlements that are devouring our budgets.
So she knows obam is a disaster, but wouldn’t vote Cain if he was the nominee. What an idiot.
The phrase has nothing to do with any body part/section.
Did you all see my new birthday/Christmas present?
My daughter an I were playing last night and she really took to it, like I was hoping.
Cool! Happy Merry Birthday Christmas! Is that bumper pool and how do you play?
i think whyisa met her husband on a pool table! ; ) LOL!
whoa!
True about the entitlements. I’d let Paul Ryan handle that. He’s already got a fine plan on the table whih has ben blocked by the Senate. I don’t know where you live, but I live in Wisconsin, and Ryan’s “Da Man” IMHO. I wish that Ryan would run for President. I’ve vote for him, donate to him, and work my rear end off for him.
Yes, it’s bumper pool. The playing surface is about 4 feet by 2.5. The object is to get your 5 balls into the pocket on the other side of the table before your opponent can do the same. There is no cue ball, you shoot each ball directly. There is a marked ball that you have to sink first before you can play any other balls.
We are playing “nice” for the time being, but playing defensively is part of the strategy as well. Meaning I use my shot to hit my ball to knock your ball out of scoring position.
Oh, my goodness.
poor joepa
Good for you!
Actually he rescued me from a group of hungry eyed illegals, but I wooed him at a pool table. Oh wait, I mean we met in church.
That sounds cool - I love pool - wish I had room for a table. We have an air hockey table in our garage
Well, next time you need a dining room table, get one of these!
No, it’s typically used of adults.
Susie was butthurt because Jenny wouldn’t loan her money.
It’s called butthurt because the person “suffering” from the condition, acts as though he/she literally (*ahem*) “took it” in the rear.
This is the first time I’ve heard the term too.
I watched Glee the first season - really enjoyed the talented musicians but the story line included just horrible bullying at school that was totally tolerated - an out of control PE teacher who openly threatened students, teachers and administration and toward the end of the season began to show a lot of sexual situations as expected among high school students. It went downhill from there.
