I guess a “mohelty” is when the rabbi cuts off way too much?

I see that and raise you a Fayette county story. (OK, they’re from Butler county, but it has “Fayette” written all over it.)

I don’t know how $18 makes a big difference. Gets you a bottle of Crown, maybe.

Oh, they didn’t have the video on the KDKA site. Dude was on the TV news last night shirtless.

It was 71 yesterday. Nice, but hardly shirtless weather.

Good obscure word! The first (and just about only) time I encountered it was when I was in my teens and it was in a book-Robert Heinlein’s “Citizen of the Galaxy”-moiety was used to describe the tribal customs/divisions of a bunch of people in a sort of space traveling colony-kind of like a caste system in India, as I recall...

Rats howl about the moiety
Of the House as it is today-
No doubt because their puppets
Can no longer have their way

I only hope the Senate, in 2012
Will follow their lead in kind
So the IRS, EPA, and others
Will no longer rob us blind

But if their mafia boss, Obama
Gets impeached and loses his job
All the Solyndras will be SOL
Just a green and greedy blob

Some women can get really bad when they get cutoff.

As a younger man, I had my storm door kicked in, a rock thrown thru my bedroom window, physically assaulted, my car damaged,a father at my door asking if I was marrying, and my name and ph number written on the ladies room wall at a movie theater (though I guess that was an endorsement,I found out when my my mother saw it) as well as a couple things I don’t like to talk about.

All after cutting the ties.

All by different chicks.

(And I didn’t cruise mental institutions)
