QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 08:21 AM) the stankin' Lankin' of course sunrise or sun set? I'm on the Texas coast, so sunrise over the Gulf. Natural or Synthetic

Besides watching the game and not standing up and going to the bathroom during play, what other stuff so you like to do? I always enjoyed playing mound ball. The rules are simple. Have everyone hand a dollar to the person sitting on the end. After the conclusion of that half inning, if the baseball winds up on the dirt part of the mound, the person holding the money wins. If it doesn't, he adds a dollar and passes it to the next person. It is generally understood that the position of rest occures at the point a player tosses the ball towards the mound, however, if an umpire catches the ball before it stops moving and tosses it towards the mound, or drops it, we will count that. Of course, Steff feel free to substitute pocket portraits of Ben Franklin to keep your friends interested

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 07:49 AM) I'm aware of what they are, thanks. Draw 10 lines, folks pick their line, then after it's filled have another person shuffle cards Ace to 10 and flip them over assigning a number to each line. Of if you'd rather have the #'s done first, use the cards to assign numbers, them cover them with medical tape (it doesn't stick to paper), have folks pick their line, then remove the tape once it's filled. I should have known, you would know of which he spoke Great suggestions by the way.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 08:02 AM) FLIP FLOPS MLK or Malcolm X ? MLK Abe Lincoln or Lincoln Towncar

I have to believe there will be a response from the Family Guy Camp. This could be great comedy if an Anime World War erupts

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 07:33 AM) Why buy them..? Make them yourself. These are the ones where you pick a line and then the covering is stripped away and you know what number you have. Usually it is the combined team single digit points. It isn't the 100 square pools, instead it is 0-9.

Baby updates? Please. And yes I know there is a blog but my computer is stuck here, I can't go anywhere else.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 07:08 AM) Yeah, banned people and deleted names take up the poster numbers, but as for an "offical" member total they don't count. Still a cause for celebration here. With the World Title, Sports Illustrated, and the expansion to the new sites, The Soxtalk family has a lot to be proud of, and it is basically all because of you people. You're such a lovely audience, we'd like to take you home with us, we'd love to take you home! :cheers Better check with Ang first, that's a lot of food to prepare . . .

http://instantwinpromotions.com/ Search Scratch and Win Card Printers. http://www.scratchoff.com/scratchandwin.htm There are hundreds, since this type of gambling is generally illegal, you have to think of the legal use for the cards, and seach that phrase.

Words are fun I was thinking Words of the Day would be a fun. What word or phrase should everyone know? What word have you heard recently of interest? I liked the 12-gauge vasectomy that Nuke mentioned in a thread. I used quaffing to describe why Miller could be in my brand loyalties.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 06:48 AM) And the first beer you drank with enemies would be??? Footwear, I'm about to go exclusive creepers, and probably TUK. The shoes I'm wearing now are almost dead, and TUK seems to now have an affordable style finally. I have one pair, but they get worn very rarely. Nothing more comfy than a good creeper. Oh, but in the summer I wear Converse Chuck's for my tenny pumps. LOL. My first beer, was with my grandfather, dark and at room temperature. There are so many situations where you need to choose from cheap, uninteresting stuff. Ball games for one. Of I have a choice between Bud and Miller, I go Miller. If I have a choice of Miller products, Miller High Life, the Champagne of Beers Now if you happen to find yourself in South Texas and looking over the selection, *you* would be offered something much better, or at least something much more interesting. In entertaining and betting on the golf course, the local and people determine the bets and drinks. Good friends at a great course, let's play $5 wolf or $50 a side and look for their best stuff at the bar. Local Muni with guys you tolerate, let's play .50 wolf and grab a can of beer at the turn. And how about kudos for quaffing?

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Apr 9, 2006 -> 10:15 PM) And you seemed so cool. For cheap quaffing, it's the first beer I drank with friends . . . Justin boots are coming close. Most comfortable footwear, ever.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 9, 2006 -> 08:35 PM) I got carded at the Cell the other day (funny, I know) and my finger was covering part of the date on my I.D. The beer guy barked at me to move my thumb so he could see the date. I thought to myself that if I was under 21, the entire ID card would have that red border around it and there would be no need to look at the date. I didn't say anything back to him because I wasn't sure if they still made them that way. Held your tongue, damn, I'd have helped the guy out. Maybe is was colored blind

Coke, Nalgene, BSA, White Sox, Republican, Sierra Designs, Miller

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 9, 2006 -> 07:17 PM) Although I thought Soxtalk had already passed this milestone, the counter on the main site is saying that the 3,000 member just registered. Cool milestone, I guess. We have trimmed out inactive screen names so we sometimes pass milestones and then pass them again. We understand being the best isn't post counts or member numbers.

Until convicted, I feel it is a sad day when voters in Districts outside his, determined who would represent Sugarland, TX.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 8, 2006 -> 03:05 AM) Just don't pin it to a quote of mine because I didn't say it. Sorry, I just looked back at my post and can't figure out why your post was there. Your post should not have appeared in my response. Sorry for implying that you supported a speak English provision. There must have been a different post I wanted to quote and would go back and correct but I doubt anyone really cares.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 9, 2006 -> 09:05 AM) Thx. Opening up a ID studio?

I wonder how many are dubbed in or if they are legit. I can't believe you can get that many to admit some of them, and that includes the first female I ever heard of that likes C*** as a word, I've met a few that liked the object

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 05:11 PM) no, it is illegal and he/she should be fined. it's a huge drain on our government. we can't afford to school all the illegals kids, we can't afford to pay all their hospital bills. pay more, mechanize or find a new job. Why we want to take an existing labor pool, trained, ready, and willing to do the job and replace them with people who have not been willing to do the job is beyond me. Let's dump all the trained workers for more expensive, untrained workers who are not familiar with the industry. Huge drain? So if they are documented, we can then pay for all that? How much in taxes do you think people earning at or near minimum wage would contribute in taxes? That's the financial difference. The other difference will be, once legal, they will be eligible for more government programs for the working poor, the same benefits anyone working those jobs would have. First off, the work is temporary and seasonal. You have to find people willing to live out of their cars for 9 months, following the crops, or have thousands of people available for a month and then they go do something else. Come up with a plan to find those workers, the country needs you. Currently people are risking their lives to work and imprisonment and huge fines to employ them. You can not mechanize all jobs in agriculture. They are developing new processes all the time, but it is still labor intense. Visit a packing shed, and with all the high speed computerized sorters there are still hundreds of workers needed. The farmers should find new jobs? Some people are not concered that we cannot produce enough food in the US to feed ourselves, yet they are concerned about not having enough gas for their cars. Pay more? How much would you want to work three weeks at a time from Idaho to Texas? Funny that during discussion about raising the minimum wage, businesses couldn't possibly pay more, owners would close shop, etc. Now conservatives believe we can increase wages and everything will be fine. Poor people are a drain on the economy. Interestingly we can afford to pay the medical bills and educate people earning minimum wage who are also not paying much if any in taxes. But we can't for other workers. And of course, business owners cannot pay much in taxes because then they will close their businesses and go do something else so they can pay less tax. YAS, the learn English thing comes up all the time. Yes, you would learn the language for the country you are in, but if you and I met in a restaurant, we would converse in English. If the shopkeeper speaks English, you would be more comfortable speaking English and he would get more of your businesses. Yet, the language thing always comes up, and I find it rather silly. I wonder if deaf and mutes (is there a better term?) should be allowed to use sign language?

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 03:11 AM) When posting about a recent book, movie or TV show and your post may spoil it for someone that hasn't seen or read it yet, always precede your post with a definitive spoiler warning. That's because YAS was so upset when he found out the ship sank in Titanic
