Snerk. Reference yesterday's post on ethics... back on September 4, 2007, Mike Shelton was channeling his Inner Armorer.
On a related note - did anyone about die laughing when Congress was lecturing the CEO's of the Big 3 about hubris, poor financial management and bad planning? -the Armorer

Sometimes, I think that Sergeant Tobacco's real name is... Yossarian. But I would be wrong. That said, how can you not click on a link to a post that will give you this?:
Honestly, how many Jewish construction workers have you ever met? We are talking about a religion that killed their best carpenter. I would trust a Jew with a power tool as much as I would trust a Korean veterinarian with a dog.
I mean, really? How can you *not* click on that lnk. CLICK THE DA*N LINK! CLICK IT!
Oh, um,sorry 'bout the pic that BT put up for his banner. -the Armorer

That should put Sly off her feed long enough to forget all about thong snarks.
Becareful of getting hair in your eyeballs. I hear they're floating around Charlotte.
Of all our major industries, the auto makers have been the most abused by Congress. Time and time again, Congress has forced them to swallow bad business decisions in the interest of preserving a voting base. They did it to our mortgage lenders, too. And now they want to blame the business people for failing to cope with their lunacy when the readily foreseeable consequences hit.
Loved the BT post, but I had a weird moment when I thought the pic was the point, and I was seriously worried about you, John. BT does have a way with words :-)
Please, the entire congressional hearings remind me of the most bizarre of our history: witch hunts.
It's like, "Confess that you are a witch and we will kill you. Don't confess, we will torture you first and then we will kill you."
Good choices, heh. The whole time the judges of the witch trials have been known to strip naked and dance in the woods under a full moon after embibing too much holier than thou water.
Gotta love'em.
Well, there was a young lady I knew (way-back-when) named Charlotte who used to give *me* the hairy eyeball whenever I'd plunk down in a certain "O" Club after work.
And helicopters don't float.
When you get back to CONUS. Will you spend any time in NJ? I can get you a round at Trump National. My brother
worksplays there. He's in charge of something or other.RE: "And helicopters don't float."
Didn't I just see a picture of a Chinook floating on this very site?
Bill remains in denial........
Fishmugger -- I'll be over here for a while, yet, but I'll be taking a few days' leave sometime before next August. Gotta get my *koff* Driver's License renewed...
...but it doesn't happen in brazil.
Ahhhh -- the Moat Princess waxing poetic...
It was.
Just not *this* BT's.
More angular, fewer freckles, less padding. And I don't smoke see-gars in bed -- although I've been told I could eat crackers there...
Not to worry...it's an open invite. Either the one in Bedminster or the club they just bought in Colts Neck. It's too cold to play now anyway.
And with that Princess Crabby crack, Bill sinks into hairy territory.
On the other hand, when Tobackee is Cracked, eew. Almost as tasteless as Aaron's Flan.
Ummmm -- unfamiliar with the concept of a Brazilian, huh?
*waving hiya to the gang at The Corner*
*The Corner. Like, that's a surprise.
I'd bet anything Fishmugger is not out to get you, dear Armorer......his tastes run more toward the denizennes.
****waves back to my Darling Chief who is always on the ball****
And what are dinizennes anyway? Is that a good thing?
As for the rest, I'll leave that to Princess Crabby, Werekitty, and Fuzzybee to explain.
As for the Jewish Construction worker, I resemble that remark!! I'm damn good with power tools, and I'm jewish. Of course, I'm like BT, in that people were surprised that I joined the Army and wasn't an O-type. You'd think Jews never fought wars, eh. Also, my entire family was blue collar, electrical, masonry, carpentry, oil delivery business, etc.
So many puns, so little time. Not to mention The PG-17 Monitor Mark I...
