Silly you, If I were in your area, I think I'd get a cop costume and have a blast!


Impersonating a law enforcement officier is illegal and likely to get you shot.

Hey all - sorry I missed hanging out last night. Hope everyone is doing well.

[Dashing Dasher]

someone at FR told me the other day that women only go to college looking for a husband.

Apprarently, you and I failed our real college objectives. We came away with MBAs and Careers instead of husbands.

Just Darn.

;-) ;-)

About bad gifs and jpgs.

What I do is save the pix to my hard drive and then post them in my photobucket.

Works for me.

[Dashing Dasher]

This time, I got myself a farmer instead of a cowboy.

He's still a Skoal guy.

;-)

Thanks for the giggle.

[Dashing Dasher]

Depressed about being Single?

NO WAY!!!

[RosieCotton]

I need ta get a photobucket account. I've used York, but they're changing their policies so you can only store pictures briefly, and also they don't allow you to upload anything but jpegs.

Thanks for the tip!

[Dashing Dasher]

Anything for a FReeper!

Actually - try being an Atheist, Female, Pro-Life, Conservative. ;-)

Should be too hard, sometimes you cannot fit a single label. Myself, I'm very conservative religiously, socially, on the family and militarily but I tend to be moderate economically. Economically, I'm closer to Tony Blair than Ronald Reagan. If you place me on the "Red-Blue Scale," I'm very red on most everything else but an nice shade of purple or maroon on the economy. I guess growing up in Pittsburgh, you have your Archie Bunker types yet they tend to look upon FDR favorably along with generally being pro-labor. Even though I'm registered Republican, I fall into that category the most. I admit, taken on average, economically, I lean a little to the left of the average Freeper. There are times I was on the short end of the economic ladder so that helped shaped my populist beliefs, another idol of mine is William Jennings Bryant. I guess overall, I'm a right-wing populist. B-) So sometimes you cannot fit everybody into the general labels of Republican, Democrat, Liberal, Conservative, Middle of the Road, you have subsets of everyone. In essence, there is no truly monolithic system in whatever "ism" you're talking about.

Dang, I've gotten to serious, time to go to the jukebox and put on "The Pina Colada Song" (1979) by Rupert Holmes.

[Nowhere Man]

Hmmm, I think I'm a bit lame here. Prank, well, I never really pulled any that could be mentioned as being stupendous. I did go out devil's night one time and one of the group, Danny, did put dog crap (well, there goes the being clean part B-)) in mailboxes. Let's see, I was 14/15 at the time, 1980/1981, yeah, the statue of limitations has run out on him. B-D He was the class nut, he used to do weird things, one time he took home chicken bones so he could build a "bionic chicken," never found out how successful he was though. B-) I remember with him we did other things of that nature too like cutting a Weebil ("Weebils wobble but they never fall down") once using a hacksaw just to find out it was a ball bearing in wood. The magic went out soon after that. B-D

Costumes, I did dress up as a witch/warlock once and the last time I went trick or treating in 1976, my buddy was Superman and I was Batman.

[Nowhere Man]

BTW, Sloth rules. Wish I could hang here all day but I gotta run some errands and go food shopping. B-P

The security stickers thing reminds me of another thing that I did: Once, about 9 years ago, I was with some coworkers , and we went into a store, Best buy or such. There were a good number of VCR's on display. So, quite discreetly, I went over, and placed about 3 of the new VCR's in the "child lock" mode, this is where you set the VCR ,so it CANNOT be used. ALL of them had been working before. Then, we all left. I wonder how long it took the sales guy, to "unlock" them, as most salespeople do NOT know how to do so!!!

Oh mean, you did remind me of something! I had a friend in high school, he told me a story once where he went into a computer store once to where he reprogrammed the demo Apple ][+ computer to say (with voice synthesizer) from saying at 12:00, "Happy afternoon, it is 12 O'Clock" to "Oh sh^&, it's Noon!." So I had a similar idea to where I would type in a short BASIC program on the demo computers, run them and leave. I would type in short one-liners, everything from "Where's The Beef" to "E.T. has V.D." where it would scroll up in a sine wave motion (if I had the time) on the screen. It was hilarious!
