Just for Fun

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

st. louis can do ribs

and lexington "style" may very well be better than lexington genuine - I was really looking forward to my week there and did try nearly every place in town

btw - the slaw was very good and I also like the fried scrapple like stuff they all serve for breakfast

I'm not what you would call a BBQ connoisseur, but I do agree that the best ENC BBQ is found in and around the Rocky Mount/Tarboro area.

What about Little Pigs in Asheville? They are now or recently celebrated their 50th year. Are they any good? I've been eating it now and then. Hate to think I've been disillusioned like some poor white redneck who always votes Republican because the people he admires do so. I think it's pretty good, but don't really have much to compare it to. They use big cleavers down there, and I have gotten a bone chip in the past, which makes me do this. :shock:

If he was man enough to punch GB in the mouth, he'd be man enough to pay his own way. He's doing it the Democratic liberal way, expecting someone else to pay his way. And naturally he would expect someone to come along and offer him more. He wouldn't buy a ticket though, $257.38 + whatever would buy one hell of a lot of Thunderbird.

It's obviously a mini drone from the NSA that has suffered battery failure. Tough shit, I guess.

I knew what it was when I saw the photo; didn't know it was a cane toad though! :lol:

"....the bat actually got away." This means that moments before, the bat pretended to get away, then he "actually" got away...actually.

Mr.B, whom if I recall, frequently wrote in dialect, is now the language usage arbiter. Like, we'll have to be careful of what we say, I know, right? Or he'll, like, literally have a cow.

I suppose I'd really be scolded because sometimes I speak in tongues (sort of like Robert de Nero did in the "Cape Fear" movie, but at a much higher pitch and intensity). I realized it's wrong to end a sentence with a parenthesis, so I fixed that.

Shame on you!

He needs to be cast in the next Expendables movie. The only problem is he would probably lose his super powers if removed from India. Apparently they have a different set of laws of physics over there from the rest of the world.

This video did teach me one thing though. If I yank my steering wheel up hard enough my car will jump 50 feet in the air. I'll have to give this a shot next Monday on my morning commute.

At least it looks like his computer is not in his basement.
That's a good thing.
