THe ***OFFICIAL *** Weekend singles thread. (Apr. 21-23

OK, GUYS, LET'S S ROLL!!

I thought Maybe a good way to begin tonight's discussions would be for us to share about some of the best pranks and jokes that we either played on someone,(or someone played on us) when we were younger(or nowadays, for that matter)

Also, we could share about some of the crazy things we used to do, when we were younger(or perhaps still do) that were seen as fun at the time, but look foolhardy to us today.

I'll start things off, and share about one thing I did about 20 years or so ago, when I was 18-19. I would go on little "scenic routes" as I used to call them. (keep in mind that in 1986-87 gas was WAY less than $1.00 a gallon). Now, I did not just drive around aimlessly, but I had a friend named Paul with me. And Paul was a LOT more daring than I!! while I drove, Paul tossed bottles, cans, eggs and fireworks out of the car, mainly at road signs, but also at a few mailboxes. I egged him on, and thought it was a LOT of fun!! Paul conned me into believing that I was not doing anything wrong, since I was "just driving". (I just have to chalk that up to youthful stupidity...) In reality, I would had been the ONLY one to get into trouble had we been caught, because PAUL WAS ON HOUSE ARREST at the time, for a B&E that he and some others had been involved in , AND he was only 17!! SO, had we gotten caught,(and in early '87 we ALMOST did!!) I would had gotten the book thrown at me, for vandalism, littering, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and who knows what else!!

I'll reserve the stories about me messing with gunpowder, acid, gasoline,lighter fluid and fireworks for another time!!! (He....He... He..)

SO... Does anyone else care to share anything(that the statue of limitations has expired on !!) LOL!!

Nobody can use a turn-signal anymore, but they sure know how to drive around with a phone jammed into their ear.

They get in their car at home and start dialing a number as they are pulling away from the curb. Can't they make their calls before they leave home?

A show to TV did a test and found no difference between driving legally drunk or talking on a cell phone while driving.

Not to mention people walking around in stores talking on them, talking on them in restruants, etc.

Those people who have them must consider themselves to be mighty important people with such pressing business that is can't wait a few minutes.

I really hate those things. I get hung up behind more poor drivers who inavariably have a cell phome jammed into their ear.

I incorrectly called it Razor LOL yes heard of that but not the SLVR.

I have a Siemens A55 and a Sony Ericsson 500i which is a camera phone but I rarely use that feature.

Sounds like someone who needs a good dose of stuff from FR!

I'll let you do the choosing.

That's OK--there's enough times I've left off the /sarc tags...;)

I'm fine with the current system. Not too late, and not too early.

Just out of curiosity--what college?

They sell Laserdisc players on Ebay all of the time. You could get one for less than $50. The one I got was a freebie. It is an old, top-load Pioneer model.

I am not sure about that Peter Gabriel disc. I do recall hearing something like that, though.

**Well, shoot the horse and slap me silly**

Um...that's a cute phrase. Didja come up with it by yourself or does someone else use that too?

Ideas...I'll think about it. I'll probably be in bed a lot this week so sometime between watching TV and writing my papers, I'll try to think of something.

You must be much better quality blank CDs than me then because mine would only be about 30 - 40 cents, the same as I pay for blank DVD-Rs.

I have a Nokia 2115i.

You should see people on my campus! There are people who can't go from one class to another without calling someone on their cell phone. I don't even take mine to class with me. It's not like I can talk to someone during class. And that way I'm not one of those annoying people whose cell phone goes off in the middle of class.

If I can find one for, say, 20 bucks, it might be worth getting, just so I could transfer the discs to DVD using my 'puter. After that, I can use the disc as frisbees, perhaps.

I'll take full creative liberties if you want (watch out, singles thread!).

I just need to figure out how they make those big giant graphics.

And those hand-free things are no good because it looks like you're talking to yourself!
