One of my sons once rented an apartment in SLC from Roseanne's mother. He says she was nice.“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

One of my missionary companions walked up to her at an Independence Day firework show and asked for her autograph (we weren't comps at the time). Then she realized she had just signed a BOM, got extremely mad, grabbed it from him and tore it up.Originally posted by LA Ute View PostOne of my sons once rented an apartment in SLC from Roseanne's mother.

She apparently didn't share her mother's sweet demeanor or sense of humor.

Best comeback for a Ute fan when confronted with BYU's 1984 National Championship.
1984. Yes. An excellent book by George Orwell about a dystopian society ruled by an oligarchical dictatorship. Very fitting.Dio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia

Knock it off. This board has enough problems without a dose of middle-age lechery.

A friend pointed me to this site and the rest of the site isn't quite as good as the name and this animated gif, but it's worth posting this part here.

I have nothing else to say at this time.

Do you mean that weird commercial with the parents opening the door when the kids are about to kiss on the porch swing, and then the whole family singing about jeans to the tune of Salt N Pepa's "Let's Talk about Sex" song? It's got the kids, the parents, the grandparents, "Let's talking about jeans, baby."Originally posted by Babs View PostI cannot get the Old Navy jeans commercial jingle out of my head, which is really disturbing in part because the jeans are so dang ugly.

No, it's the "only in my jeans" song about their new flared jeans. As if people haven't been wearing flared jeans for fifteen years now.Originally posted by wuapinmon View PostDo you mean that weird commercial with the parents opening the door when the kids are about to kiss on the porch swing, and then the whole family singing about jeans to the tune of Salt N Pepa's "Let's Talk about Sex" song?

Watching the yellowjacket trap fill up with the carcasses of those little bastards fills me with more joy than I care to admit.There's no such thing as luck, only drunken invincibility. Make it happen.

I once ran a push mower past a nest under a railroad tie in a yard I was being paid to cut. The little bastards stung me about 20 times. On the drive back from Morgan's Ace Hardware with the "Shoots 20 feet" can of liquid yellow-jacket pogrom I had purchased, I thought to myself, "Mac, they brought this on themselves, and you will feel nothing but tiny darts of pleasure as you unleash your stream of righteous insecticide upon their hive." And, I did.Originally posted by landpoke View PostWatching the yellowjacket trap fill up with the carcasses of those little bastards fills me with more joy than I care to admit."Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action.

Late last night Flash and I were driving around on the interstate when my VERY MOST FAVORITE OU HAT EVER blew off. I was nearly beside myself, but at 70 mph and in pitch darkness, there was no hope of finding it.
Well, we went back this afternoon, and it was still there!! Right by the side of the road where it blew off. yay!
