And all he has is his 2 Super Bowl rings to console himself with. ;-)
I’m really surprised they let him have those rings Dave - the entire world is against him. I bet they make him return them
Today is HDO btw
My three kids went to noon mass w/o me even telling them to make sure to go. I’m proud.
You assumed I didn’t know that? ;-)
Just printed an itemized invoice so I can take it to the customer a little later and get paid-
Often when I read an article
I laugh at the awful grammar-
It is as if the writer used
Not a keyboard, but a hammer
Wouldn’t online publications
Be enhanced if they employed
A usageaster to proofread all
So credibility isn’t destroyed?
After all-do you ever read
A paragraph without a laugh
If every serious sentence
Contains at least one gaffe?
That is a major pet peeve, and I don’t care if I’m being pedantic-if you don’t know the meaning of the word, or the proper usage-LOOK IT UP!
1980 T. Clark in Amer. Speech LV. 132 We can help such people overcome their insecurity by making a clear distinction between usageasters and usage experts. Useageaster is my term, formed on analogy with poetaster.
There is no Mass being said today closer than 25-30 miles, but I figured out some time ago that the Archbishop pays little attention to anything that is much outside the SA city limits...
That was outstanding.
Many a usageaster in the Population Control crowd maintain that “useless eaters” should be eliminated for the health of the Planet ....
That’s silly. Who wants to taste a poet?
My buddy and I went Canadian Goose hunting. I had double barrel ten gauge and he had a 12 gauge with magnums. I fired twice and got my limit. He shot twelve times and got nothing. I said let’s go, I’m wet and cold. He said “I don’t understand. I’m a good shot.” I said next “Next time, usageaster.” Thank you, thank you. Don’t forget to tip me.
Thank you! I see that I’m not the only one here who believes their children and pets could write better articles than many journalists...
Most people work and pay taxes until death here-in rural areas that has always been so-but now in the cities, older people work and pay taxes, while many young people sit around and whine, collect some form of government assistance and don’t pay a dime in taxes-making that a counterproductive solution. But then no one ever accused the Population Control crowd of an overabundance of logic or good sense...
I’m sure they pay taxes on their beer and cigarettes. ;-)
Only because they can’t get out of it unless they shoplift the stuff...
Speaking of deadbeats-
The few stores out here-general store, dollar store, ice house-stopped taking any EBT cards/food stamps, etc when the deluge of mojados at the border began. There are signs on the doors in both English and Spanish proclaiming they are not accepting that stuff until further notice...
I’m surprised the state doesn’t make it mandatory. Tied to some license or other.
Maybe in cities, but not out in rural areas-nearly every business is a small and locally owned one, with maybe 4-5 employees who are usually family members. Those processing machines cost money-only the gas station even takes credit cards.
And you don’t need a license for anything except to sell or haul propane-a state license-or if you own a gas station, to sell gasoline and diesel.
Full hour long mass lotsa singing including in the vernacular. They baptized a Hawaiian baby boy with the name Mauna Kea which I’m pretty sure is a volcano on the big island. He was cute, lots of indigenous fam. Christ on the cross had the physique of a Polynesian - stocky!
