I used to love playing street hockey. I had a wicked hard wrist shot with one of those little hard plastic hockey balls. My shot was pretty inaccurate though, so everyone was afraid to get hit in the face or the crotch with it.

I used to get a lot of uncontested goals beacuse I'd wind up from the point and the goalies (who usually weren't wearing much in the way of padding) would step out of the way and I would just tap it in!

My goal is to have this thread reach 100 pages

Sometimes I lurk, sometimes I post, but I always love coming here.

I'm in a lurking habit these days and looking to get out of it!

I smoke like a chimney. That's probably my worst habit. I've never seriously tried to quit, but I'm contemplating it ever since they changed the type of paper the tobacco is rolled in. This new paper is supposed to keep them from burning your house down if you drop a lit cigarette on the couch in a drunken stupor, but all it's doing for me is tearing my lungs up.

Smoke, Smoke, Smoke That Cigarette Written by Merle Travis and Tex Williams

Now I'm a feller with a heart of gold
And the ways of a gentleman I've been told
The kind of guy that wouldn't even harm a flea
But if me and a certain character met
The guy that invented the cigarette
I'd murder that son-of-a-gun in the first degree

It ain't cuz I don't smoke myself
And I don't reckon that it'll harm your health
Smoked all my life and I ain't dead yet

But nicotine slaves are all the same
At a pettin' party or a poker game
Everything gotta stop while they have a cigarette

Smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette
Puff, puff, puff and if you smoke yourself to death
Tell St. Peter at the Golden Gate
That you hates to make him wait
But you just gotta have another cigarette

Now in a game of chance the other night
Old Dame Fortune was a-doin' me right
The kings and the queens just kept on comin' round

And I got a full and I bet 'em high
But my bluff didn't work on a certain guy
He just kept on raisin' and layin' that money down

Now he'd raise me and I'd raise him
I sweated blood, gotta sink or swim
He finally called and didn't even raise the bet

So I said "aces full Pops how 'bout you?"
He said "I'll tell you in a minute or two
But right now, I gotta have me a cigarette"

Smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette
Puff, puff, puff and if you smoke yourself to death
Tell St. Peter at the Golden Gate
That you hates to make him wait
But you just gotta have another cigarette

(Ah, smoke it! Hah! Yes! Yes! Yes!)

The other night I had a date
With the cutest little girl in the United States
A high-bred, uptown, fancy little dame

She loved me and it seemed to me
That things were 'bout like they oughta be
So hand in hand we strolled down lover's lane

She was oh so far from a cake of ice
And our smoochin' party was goin' nice
So help me cats I believe I'd be there yet

But I give her a kiss and a little squeeze
And she said, "ah, Marty, excuse me please
I just gotta have me another, cigarette"

And she said, smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette
Puff, puff, puff and if you smoke yourself to death
Tell St. Peter at the Golden Gate
That you hates to make him wait
But you just gotta have another cigarette

I recently re-started smoking after nearly two years without....

I couldn't do without a guy for that long.... two weeks and I'm busting!

People at work keep busting the copy machine and we can't get it fixed. Our Accounts Payable people are in some kind of a big dispute with the company that services the copier and won't pay the bill until it's cleared up. Meanwhile the people that service the copier won't come out and fix it until they get paid. So our copier has been down now for two weeks, and it's become incredibly hard to function without it. We've had to resort to making all of our copies off of a little fax machine in the back office that takes forever, and because of all of the recent abuse is now on it's last legs.

I hate my job...

People who bust other people's knee caps are just mean. I hate them.

Now, shin-kicking is A-Okay.

Ouch, your words hurt my knee caps.

Hurt - John Hurt

Knee - Bee's knees

Caps - Stylish headwear

My - Oh my!

Ouch - Boo-boo

Words - Words can hurt. Be careful

Definitions and lots of words remind me of Writing Communications class.

Are spin doctors the lowest form of life?

I thought lawyers were the lowest form of life

Known as "the lowest point on Earth", the Dead Sea is continually getting lower. According to The Jordan Times the surface of the Dead Sea, which stood at 392 meters below sea-level as early as 1920, now stands more than 420 meters below sea level.

The decrease in the Dead Sea's size can be attributed to a number of factors, including high temperatures in the Jordan River valley which causes the salt water from the Sea to evaporate and a decreased flow from several tributaries which feed the Dead Sea. Over the years water from these tributaries, which include the Jordan and Mujib Rivers, have been increasingly diverted for use in agricultural irrigation in Jordan, Syria and Israel.

I wonder if they ever will find water on Mars?

Working too many hours sucks, even if the money is great!

Vacuum cleaners suck. Hey, it's their job!

I like cheesecake, it's so yummy.

Do I have the Cheescake or the ice cream for dessert?

The cheesecake, it's more money but it's yummy for your tummy.

Come one people...keep the topic moving...

I have to take my truck into the shop in the morning. It's stalling out now when driving at highway speeds. That's not good. The last time I had it in they couldn't find a problem. Let's hope they find something this time, and that it doesn't cost me a whole lot of money to get it fixed.

That sucks, I thought our topics were allowed to drift?

The worst part of a blizzard isn't so much the snow, it's the drifts. Tons of snow falls, but the high winds that make a large snow storm a blizzard causes the snow that falls to blow around, which reduces visibility to next to nothing!

I like winds.
