Ever hear of The Lady of the Lake - King Arthur - Excalibur etc.

Short-term thinking. Drugs make me feel good now.
I have made the deliberate decision to explain to my kids that people take drugs because drugs make them feel good. It was a hard decision to make. "Hey kid, these things will make you feel great, but don't do them anyway." But I've gone on to explain they make you feel great in the moment, but screw up everything else in your life, until the only way life is bearable is to stay in that moment.
Drugs won't solve problems, they make things better until they make them worse.
I hope that's a better way to approach the subject than just saying that people take drugs because they are stupid, are wanting to take a risk.
The Holy Grail.
hehehe
That’s gotta be about the best one-liners in a movie, ever.
I told my kids similarly, but, my own brother was killed by police when he was 19 (I was 18), due to drugs...cocaine sales and an armed weapon, to be specific.
That was harped into their minds from a young age.
As was the fact that I loved my brother ALWAYS, I miss him, and wished he was ALIVE to have been able to be their uncle.
Tragically, I think that my sad story hit home much better than just saying “don’t do it, even if it makes you feel good.”
They are both drug free and have no intention, from what I can see, to get involved with it or people who do it.
You have private mail.
Stephen Baldwin, when asked the Ten Commandments, can usually come up with three or four. Let's not lionize the guy. He's a little bit smarter than a bag of hair.
Yeah, it is. But he was busted for driving drunk in a convertible. Anyone who's driven a convertible at high speed, drunk or sober, knows that it feels really good, but makes you look terrible.
No excuse for driving drunk. But if I were pulled over for speeding on the PCH, stone cold sober, back when I had long hair, I'd probably look just as ruffled
lol!
Moral of the story: don’t drive drunk; and don’t drive in a convertible with long hair. : )
just got it, thanks.
Pilot to bombardier!
Pilot to bombardier!
We’re nearing the target!
Bombs ready, buddy!
Baldwin residence...
no, this is Billy Baldwin.
If you want Daniel Baldwin, call his extension...
stupid!
Hey Alec, do you know what sucks about being a Baldwin?
No, what?
- Nothing!
* Bombs drop on Baldwin house *
Ha!
Ha!
You missed me!
* Bomb drops on Alec *
Ask a simple question, get a smart-ass answer.
I hope you’re just talking about tear bombs, lol!
There’s hope for these Baldwin brothers.....isn’t there?
Best celebrity mugshot ever. I laugh every time I see it. The crazy hair, the wacky shirt and the drunken stare...priceless.
Monty Python & The Holy Grail.

It's one of the most hillarious movies of all time. Be sure to read the opening credits in the movie... It explains a lot of what goes on around here!

Another important rule for driving a convertible... Never eat white powder donuts while driving with the top down... You'll have some very interesting explaining to do...
