Huh, that’s what I was thinking. He went with a guy who did the ‘honey dipping’ one time, cleaning out septics from schools and restaurants. Looked exactly like this stuff, gray cement-y stuff they had to shovel and brush off the walls of the tank. He said the grease debris smelled worse than anything else they had cleaned out.

Fun fact:

The apostle Paul, best known for his 13 letters in the New Testament, talked about the Dispensationalist rapture/second coming of Christ scenario, long before Tim or Russell.

Beware of the blob . . .
It creeps and leaps,
And glides and slides across the floor.
Right through the door,
And all around the hall,
A blotch, a splotch,
Be careful of the blob!

—Burt Bacharach and Mack David, 1958.
Recorded by The Five Blobs (Columbia Records), and the Zanies (Dore Records), 1958

You are incorrect, but it’s past midnight and I don’t feel like rehashing the reasons why for the 78th time. Pax vobiscum.

McQueen had an unusual reputation for demanding free items in bulk from studios when agreeing to do a film, such as electric razors, jeans and several other products. It was later found out that McQueen requested these things because he was donating them to the Boy's Republic reformatory school for displaced youth, where McQueen had spent time during his youth. +++++ 'Towards the end of his life McQueen became a Christian in part to the influence of his flying instructor, Sammy Mason, and his wife, Barbara Minty. He regularly attended his local church, and was visited by the famed evangelist Billy Graham shortly before he died. +++++ 'McQueen learned the martial art Tang Soo Do from ninth degree blackbelt Pat E. Johnson. McQueen served as one of the pall bearers at Bruce Lee's funeral in 1973.+++++ 'McQueen was quite conservative in his political views, and often backed the Republican Party. He supported the Vietnam War, was one of the few Hollywood stars who refused numerous requests to back Presidential hopeful Robert Kennedy in 1968, and turned down the chance to participate in the 1963 March on Washington.' ============================================================ Image and video hosting by TinyPic

I worked in an office behind a Denny’s just after college. The days they had the grease truck come we could barely stay at our desks for hours after.

It’s one of Rosie O’Donnell’s discarded feminine hygeine products.

What's your take on this, luv? Something sinister, or just the usual Maine pols reverting to their true selves?

No bets, but a very probable first line of defense seems to me to be blowing ciggy smoke at this odd whatzis. Reasonable?
