I’m against the war on afghans. Sometimes my wife wears an afghan and there’s nothing wrong with it. We’ve had two or three of them over the years. So why all of a sudden is this an issue? Instead of a war on afghans, let’s have a war on something that will do some good, like a war on drugs or something.
I, too, am miffed by this war on afghans. My grandmother makes them, and I have never found anything wrong with them. In fact, they keep me warm and are nice and snuggly. Hmmph.
My brother once had a friend with a couple Afghans. They were weird - snapped at you when you tried to pet 'em, and looked more like weird camel things than dogs. You have to brush them a lot, too. I don’t particularly like them, but no reason to wage war on them, IMO.
I don’t know why they put shampoo and conditioner in the same size bottles. You don’t use the same amount of shampoo and conditioner when you wash your hair. They should make different size bottles for the shampoo and conditioner. Humph.
[sub]I swear, I overheard this in the grocery store one time[/sub]
That one really makes me laugh. You’d think they only sold them in sets or something.
I don’t know why people go into those restaurants with signs that say, “No Shirt. No Shoes. No Service.” I don’t expect restaurants to offer shirts or shoes, but if you’re not going to get any service, why not just eat at home?

I think A.J. is the cutest one of them all. Or Nick. Or Howie. OOOoooh they’re all so cute. I gonna go kiss my Backstreet Boys poster.
I think its wrong that the highway department picks on the family of stupid kids by putting those “Slow Children” signs in front of their house. What if those kids can read well enough to find out how stupid everyone thinks they are? What will that do to their fragile self-esteem. I hate dumb kids as much as the next guy and I know that they have a habit of running out in the middle of the road and chasing cars but come on. Most drivers would be able to stop in time to keep from hitting them even without the signs. Just the other day, I took a walk down the street and saw that one of my neighboors had one of those signs put up in front of their house. I had no idea. I mean, their kids are certainly no future Nobel prize winners but they seem sweet enough and can function somewhat normally. Last night I snuck out with my hack saw and cut that thing down so the parents don’t have to go through this ostracism any more. That was just wrong.
This is similar to the Stop Children Crossing scam.
It works like this. At the busiest time of the morning, you are driving along without a care in the world when someone In Uniform steps out into the middle of the road with a sign that says Stop Children Crossing.
You are meant to think that it’s a protest march against people under a certain age crossing the road. But you’d be wrong.
Because, in complete contravention of the sign’s message, they stop all the cars to allow the children to cross!
Like those youngsters who followed the Pied Piper of Michelin all those years ago, they all disappear into a large building originally erected for educational purposes.
The same thing happens at exactly the same places at the busiest time of the afternoon, only this time the children cross the road in the opposite direction.
In my opinion, it would save a lot of time and trouble if children stayed on their own side of the road until they are old enough to leave home and start a family.
Any thoughts?
Obviously, no.
Did you hear about the older woman who tried to get on the plane with knitting needles and yarn?
They wouldn’t let her on…
They were afraid she was going to make an afghan.
I don’t think we should all be that worried about Amtracks. Why are so many people afraid of Amtracks in their mail. First of all, Amtrack wouldn’t even fit in your mailbox and B), couldn’t you see the Amtrack before it entered your lungs?
I’m all for the Telly ban. I mean of all the muppets on Sesame Street, he was the worst. Now Grover, he’s the best.
Wow. It’s deja vu all over again.
So if I go into one of those places with my shirt on and my shoes on, and no pants, I will get service? Hmmm… mebbe a kind of service I don’t want. If anyone else want to volunteer to test this theory, be sure to let us know what happens.
My neighbor keeps saying “Imagine whirled peas”
How dumb is that!
Was the Big Bang a naked singularity?
[sub]actually this is my favorite bumper sticker ever[/sub]
Ahhhh…me thinks me has found me tribe.
When I am driving in my car and I come upon a street sign that says “STOP AHEAD;” I always immediately stop my car, but I never can find A HEAD. I’ve gotten out of the car looked on the road…no head…looked in the median…no head…in the swale…no head…and I’ve even looked behind me and above me…still no dang head. What the heck is up with this sign? Anybody have this same trouble?
Also folks remember, it’s not the ASPHALT; it’s the PAVEMENT. Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

What about “SLOW MEN WORKING”? Well, yeah they are slow, but no need to rubber-neck to see them. That just backs up traffic, which is really unnecessary.
And why exactly are we bombing cable? I like cable…I am watching it right now. But destroying apartments and open-markets on cable? Get rid of stupid programming first, please.
