A Christmas Story Serial RV Annie Hall What About Bob? Porky's Slapshot Rocky Horror Picture Show Wayne's World Stripes The first five were ones I nominated the second half are ones I wish I had listed. How could we not have Slapshot?

Fast Times not on the list? I guess I'll just have my gf over, put on side two of Zep 4. Over? Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

QUOTE (kevo880 @ Apr 25, 2008 -> 02:06 PM) Why don't they give a rip at bears games if there's underage drinkers tailgaiting? It could be who owns the lots.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Apr 25, 2008 -> 02:01 PM) Just a question...but aren't the Sox libel of something happened to an underage person drinking in some way, shape or form since technically it's on their "property". Not sure how that works...but you really can't get mad at guys just doing their jobs and the White Sox orginization merely protecting themselves. If their liquor license works like a store, restaurant, bar, etc. they could have it suspended or revoked. No big deal. IIRC some team did have it yanked for a game a few years back.

This is the Sox worst PR nightmare. Crede playing up to his potential.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 25, 2008 -> 01:44 PM) So its OK when you break the rules, but not the underage drinkers. That's a pretty big bowl of hypocrisy you are serving up there... Are you really comparing calling the manager's name to underage drinking? I'm not even certain their is a rule about it, I imagine it's more etiquette and common sense.

I'll read it. My cousin played indy ball for a lot of years. He had fun, but without any real expectation of playing beyind that, he was able to stay level headed and have fun.

We all have time, talent, and treasure that some organization can use. Most people who give one or more of the three to a worthy cause they believe in, are rewarded ten fold. Thank you for helping in this fight Rex.

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Apr 24, 2008 -> 03:26 PM) However, if it was something like a school trying to make it be recited in both languages to appease bilingual students thats another story. Interesting. If there was a group of people who wanted to pledge allegiance to this country, you would say no if they wanted to do it in another language?

I feel like thye old man who walks by some young guy who is gazing longingly at a very hot chick. And I say, son, enjoy the moment, you can have a couple (more) good times with her, but in the end she's going to break your heart. Crede

Harry gets home late one night and, Jo, his wife says, 'Where in the hell have you been?' Harry replies, 'I was out getting a tattoo.' A tattoo?' she frowned. 'What kind of tattoo did you get?' I got a hundred dollar bill on my privates,' he said proudly. What the hell were you thinking?' she said, shaking her head in disgust. 'Why on earth would a retiree gets a hundred dollar bill tattooed on his privates?' Well, one, I like to watch my money grow. Two, once in a while I like to play with my money. Three, I like how money feels in my hand. And, lastly, instead of you going out shopping, you can stay right here at home and blow a hundred bucks anytime you want. Harry is recovering in room 233 at the local hospital.....

QUOTE (vandy125 @ Apr 24, 2008 -> 12:01 PM) Heck, a nice long 2x4, golf club, hockey stick, or something like that would work too. There are a lot of things that you could use. I wouldn't be getting that close to it with a knife. Knowing Gerry. The golf club is probably his worse tool. He's about the only Canadian without a hockey stick. What he should have done was grab his ropin' gear and try to rope that critter. Of course getting his ropin' horse into the house would have been a challenge.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Apr 24, 2008 -> 10:17 AM) No, what Steve means is that at that size the snake would have had a well-developed rattle. It didn't have a rattle according to Tex's friend, ergo, not a rattlesnake. I agree, I did learn that a gang down here initiates their members by having them cut the rattles off a live snake. It's suppose to represent their gang being deadly, but never giving a warning. I'm raising the and thinking urban legend.

IIRC we used a variety of similar exercises back then. Lord's Prayer was one a recalled.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 24, 2008 -> 10:13 AM) The honorary "Athomeboy" thread. what a great idea! Thanks Soxy

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 24, 2008 -> 08:52 AM) That story is why I come to Soxtalk. Good stuff. It's not a rattler at that size though... bull snake. I've seen bigger. The size was well within the range.

For 99.99% of the students that recite the pledge, it is a mind numbing rote exercise that means zero. So say it in any language. In fact, I think saying it in your non native language actually makes you think about the words and perhaps will break through the rote recital. And which is more important, pledging allegiance to America, or what language it is spoken in? We do not want your allegiance if you can not say it in English?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 24, 2008 -> 06:55 AM) Tex's scary snake story? I almost asked if this thread was safe for work, but then I thought about it, and I figured it would be a shortstory anyway. Ziiiiing
