  1. hmm.. I don’t like this one anymore

  2. much better

  3. Setting up a free 8 year old TiVo is a flaming pain in the ass.

  4. She has a bump on the inside of her elbow….
    Andy what is different with “autism-friendly performances”.

  5. Teeth….too big.

  6. Mare, the first batch burned. Then the next one steamed and wilted before crisping, instead of just going brittle dry right off the bat. So it was tough and fibrous and near inedible.

    I think my oven door should have been open a little to let the moisture out. The oven seemed to be steamy inside instead of bone dry.

    The ones I did last week that came out great were a small batch in my toaster oven. It probably vents better.

  7. huh? what?

  8. lauraw, would a dehydrator work better? I saw Kale chips at the store today. They were pricey.

  9. so I don’t get dinner?

    THIS IS FUCKIN WRONG

  10. >> She has a bump on the inside of her elbow….
    Andy what is different with “autism-friendly performances”.

    The house lights are up a little, the speaker volume is lower and they warn you (by people holding up glow-sticks) when there is about to be a loud noise.

    But mainly they don’t kick you out for raising a ruckus in the audience. It would be perfect for a meat-up.

  11. I think this pic has been recycled from the mothership.

  12. THIS IS FUCKIN WRONG

    You should have found a shirtless picture of Tim Tebow instead.

  13. shut up I like her

  14. She’s gorgeous. If she has a decent personality and can wash dishes, I’m in love.

  15. But we do have baseball and the Stanley Cup playoffs. But your right.

  16. The train just went across whatever river that is that runs by Essex. That was a fun time, despite the service or lack thereof.

  17. Jewstin FTW!!!!

  18. The mussels came out great though.
    Got the PEI ones, big and nice. 50 for $5.

    I simmered the tomato sauce all day and stewed some chicken in it too.

  19. *tummy rumbles*

  20. Red Wings got knocked out, so hockey’s over, really.

  21. >> I think this pic has been recycled from the mothership.

    It has, and if he’s gonna do that, I wish he’d use that UGA one.

  22. Andy, thanks for the info. I’ve been relaying ti my cousin. My Godson is autistic.

  23. Cool. They do this a couple of times a year for different shows.

  24. I like the blue mussels better than the green ones. Although, honestly I doubt I would know the difference if it weren’t written on the label.

  25. CT River Andy. It’s tidal all the way up here in Hartford.

  26. find your own goddamn cheerleader pics

  27. Most people don’t know our river has a low and high tide. Good comedy at the boat launch parking lots.

  28. Dave is grumpy. His lumbago must be acting up.

  29. I thought that was the CT river but wasn’t sure.

    I told the Mrs. we were in the “swampy” part of CT but amended that to “marshy”.

  30. I just lit the grill.. which kinda makes all grumpy go away

  31. Very nice, Dave. What’s going on that puppy?

    *Notes the lack of a comma for our SCOAMF*

  32. We live in swampy.

  33. We’re in a swampy part of MA right near the Charles (as my formerly flooded basement will attest to).

  34. It kinda sucks. However, when the zombies come I only have to worry about 2 sides.

    Traffic and snapping turtles have our flank.

  35. or flanks.

  36. These mussels are very clean, meaty, and tender. I don’t know if they’re green or blue but they are very good. I wouldn’t hesitate to choose the PEI ones over the Maine mussels again any day. Last time I got Maine ones they tasted fine but they needed a LOT of cleaning. I had a pile of barnacles in the sink strainer and a cut thumb. Pain in the ass.

  37. *…over the Maine mussels again any day.*

    Careful laura, I’ll send a plague of barnacle zombies upon you. (They’ll be there in about 5 years)

  38. Three porterhouse steaks, and some foil wrapped asparagus with butter, olive oil and fresh parmesan cheese

  39. It saddens me that real zombies wouldn’t last a day.

  40. Barnacle zombies are not all that terrifying.
    *crunch

    Oops
    didn’t see ya down there lil’ fella

  41. >> real zombies

    ?

  42. scot, as a kid i lived in Naugatuck, Ct

  43. >> real zombies

    If zombies were real, there would be no apocalypse, just a tiny outbreak at worst.

  44. Naugatuck…….mad hatters.

  45. I like the ONT, though I never comment on it any more.

  46. my sister, to my eternal shame, is a copperhead – born in waterbury CT

  47. I would never ask me to give hand signals to back the SUV up, so why did my hubby? Not like you can’t kick dents out of a garage door. Am I right?

  48. http://tinyurl.com/79a23fo

  49. Overheard at the Loco household:

    Oso: Go up.

    Oso: NO! I said GO UP!

    Oso: Okay, now left.

    Oso: No, no! Your OTHER left.

  50. A cheerleader pic at H2? WTFITS?!

  51. you need top post your pix Cyn

  52. Okay

  53. wow I make the best steak and shrimp fajitas in the world.

    *pats myself on the back*

  54. ‘Sup, cool kids?

  55. Anyone want to tell me what I am doing wrong with Zeke?

    Every day I take him out 4x a day to play. It goes something like this. I throw the ball Zeke gets it and brings it back to within 10′ of me and puts it down.

    Bring it here.
    *blinks pant pant*
    Bring it here
    *Pant pant*
    Bring it here butthead!
    *picks up ball drops it 6″ closer to me*
    Hey that is not here!
    *moves it 6″ closer*
    ZEKE!
    *picks up ball moves it to within 5′ of me*
    THAT IS NOT HERE!
    *blinks*
    Repeat the 6″ thing once or twice
    ZEKE!!!!HERE!
    Manages to bring the ball to within 3′ or less.

    Anyone?

  56. Sounds like he’s trying to teach you to fetch.

  57. Zeke is related to my MaryAnn?

  58. Have you tried ‘treating’ him to bring it and drop it? It worked with our pup.

  59. Oh, happy day!

  60. S’up, Chief.

  61. Look, it’s a new poat Cyn. Plus, I like her.

  62. The little douchebag male “feminist” got my account suspended on Twitter. What a dick!

  63. He is dumber than a box of rocks Cyn, but that is worth a try.

  64. Iz just poking a bit, Dave; she’s loverly.

  65. What choo talkin’ ’bout, Chief??? Suspended?!? The fuck.

  66. He did it the first throw tonight. I told him to bring it here and waited 20 min then went inside. He did not play much tonight.

  67. MCPO, ask for it back. @DicksTrash had his Twitter account suspended for “spamming” and got it reactivated.

  68. Try using a very special treat, like that freeze dried liver, and only use that treat for your ball training. We did that with Sparky for him to do his “business” to make sure he “went” before bedtime and it worked like a champ. He will now pee on command… those treats are magic.

  69. Whiny little liberal shits. Some free speech advocates!

  70. Roamy – Yeah, did that already. Just pisses me off to no end!

  71. My golden does the same thing v. The only thing I have found that semi-works is to ignore him until he brings it to me. He developed the same attitude as zeke…part of the game is to get dad to chase you when you have the ball. Retriever my ass.

  72. …part of the game is to get dad to chase you when you have the ball

    Bingo. Dogs are smarties.

  73. If only I had some freeze dried liver treats to train Pupster to bring me a beer.

  74. A friend of mine taught his golden to give up the frisbee by never letting him play with it unless he was in the yard and returned every throw. The toy stayed on top of the fridge until it was time to play, and if he didn’t bring it back one time, back out of reach it would go.

  75. Vman, this is the “special” treat we use for Sparky for super special training dealies: http://is.gd/HRdgPy.

    I now have to give him allergy shots weekly and I give him a few pieces of these after the shot. Now, when he hears me getting these out, he races over and sits to wait for me to give him his shot. There might be doggie-crack in here or something.

  76. Sorry x

    *belch*

    Beers all gone.

  77. **puts Pupster in doggie crate**

    **straps crate on top of car**

    Don’t make me drive this fucker to the White House!

  78. He is not trying to have me chase him Pups, but I think it is a game, or ADD.

  79. Mmmmmmm … doggie crack.

    /Barack Obama

  80. Thanks Cyn!

  81. When will you know if you’re going to get your account reinstated, MCPO?

  82. Vmax, with a big dog like Zeke, proper spatula selection is key.

    I suspect you’ve been beating him with one of those inferior rubber bowl-scrapers. That was fine when he was a puppy.

    Now, you still need something flexible and whippy, but more substantial and with a sturdy handle. This is the only way to overcome the thick coat and, er, reach the emotions of a larger dog.

    *slides Chef’s catalog across table*

    You should look at page 64.

  83. Pupster,
    I found a 98 Mustang GT up your way I am thinking of buying. Looks very nice and clean but needs a tranny. (not that kind Xbrad) $3k

  84. Cyn – Since this is a “1st offense”, they reinstate almost immediately.

  85. Oooo, those are some nices ones, Laura. Very whippy.

  86. of course Laura, he needs a bigger treat spatula!

  87. I hate the pantywaists that think they’ve won their argument by shutting you up.

  88. Liberals would prefer to “win the argument” in the manner of their heroes like Stalin, Lenin, and Mao. They settle for silencing opposition in a temporary fashion. For now.

  89. That’s good to hear, MCPO, and yes, Roamy, you are right on.

    Why is it that so many sites you go to now, there is a button “right there” for you to click if you think someone is offensive or if something should be flagged? To me, that’s akin to calling the police for your neighbor’s barking dog. Just freaking walk next door and handle it, how hard is that?

    *(this is of course assuming that your neighbor is not a dickweed)

  90. I’d rather fly on a plane with you anyhow Cyn.

    Cheerleaders. How’s I get that job? They’re all children.

  91. I suspect you’ve been beating him with one of those inferior rubber bowl-scrapers. Now, you still need something flexible and whippy, but more substantial and with a sturdy handle.

  93. MJ is a dubstep junkie. . . just sayin’.

  94. Plane Buddy™!

  95. the pussification of ameriKKKa continues

  96. Cyn is my QT™ Bud
    except when i have cooties

  97. Beating people with utensils reminds me of my HS/college girlfriend.

    Stick with me here.

    She was Hungarian, and her grandmother used to hit the kids with a wooden spoon. The translation is fakanal.

    It’s pronounced Fuck Anal.

  98. Did anybody check in to see what condition anybody else’s condition was in today?

  99. sean, im sober and the heart is still clicking

  100. Good to hear, Krow.

    On a completely unrelated topic, congrats to Treacher!

  101. That wooden spoon thing… I saw it once or twice in my day. (SYWM)

  102. Did anybody check in to see what condition anybody else’s condition was in today?
    —————-
    I checked Kenny Roger’s condition. It was either surprised or just bad plastic surgery.

  103. Great for Treach! It is nice when one of us wins, feels good.

    Off to dinner. Please keep your hands and feet in the ride at all times while I am gone.

  104. That wooden spoon thing… I saw it once or twice in my day. (SYWM)

    I’m aghast. I believed you to be the paragon of virtue.

  105. keep telling you guys, she WANTS us to think she is all innocent and such

  106. Let me know if I can do anything for you on the mustang v. I’m not expert but i can kick tires with the best of them.

  107. We used to get it with the wooden-spoon, or, if it was closer, the 18″ piece of extension-cord.
    I preferred the spoon. Less mass, more surface-area.
    The cord could draw blood, and often did.
    My 5 siblings often say that if that had happened today, we would have been in foster-homes, and she would have been in jail.

  108. Thank you Pups

  109. I’m aghast. I believed you to be the paragon of virtue.

  110. Never EVER laugh when Mom breaks the yardstick.

    She’ll double it over, and really beat the crap out of you!

  111. My tiny mom could wield a willow switch like fuckin Zorro

  112. Sounds like the Aunt Jemima treatment.

    /Pvt. John Winger

  113. I really hated it when Mom sent me to choose which willow switch she was gonna beat my ass with.

  114. I’ve gotten the shoe, the belt, the garden hose, and a 2×2 with a nail in it.

  115. That is a classic Andy

    Barnakey! He owes me money!

  116. My Kindle, it is dead. Tried resetting, but anytime I try to charge it, the light goes out after a couple of minutes, and the thing is hot.

  117. I broke one Romy, and do not change pages with wet fingers it takes days to get back to normal. Next one is getting the warranty.

  118. It’s lasted for 2.5 years.

  119. Where is it hot Romy?.
    Bottom Center of the back is the battery

  120. My books still work just fine.

    And I don’t have to prug them in, or jiggle the prug.

    Curious, that.

  121. Currently reading “The Rise and Fallof the Third Reich” on my kendall. Been meaning to read it for years. Cost me $2.99. Hell, I’m making money with that thing.

  122. kindle kendall ken doll, candle wtf?

  123. I had the best blackened chicken for lunch today.

  124. Auto correct PG?

  125. Racist!

  126. If only Space Pens™ lasted as long

  127. Vmax, it has to be the battery, but the whole keyboard gets hot.

    BiW, you are dissing someone with over 2,000 paperbacks and hardbacks. I would have never finished Atlas Shrugged if it hadn’t been on my Kindle. Too heavy. Plus I like all the freebies, like Sherlock Holmes.

  128. Roamy, I have that Space Shuttle show I mentioned the other day. Just need to burn it to DVD.

  129. On my DX Romy pull down below the top inch and the back comes off. 2 screws and the battery is out. A little binging and you can buy a new one for under $5

  130. I’m not dissing anyone.

    I just have a deep and abiding love for holding a book in my hand…the feel of the paper, the smell of the ink, the variation in font, and the crack of the binding…

    And the ability to write notes in the margin, and highlight or underline portions.

  131. Maybe you should get a shock collar for the dog, they work great! ;-) My wife wouldn’t let me use it on our boy. Sure was tempting though.

    My mom broke a piece of PVC on my sister once.

  132. Roamy, i am a fiend for Mr Holmes’ Adventures

  133. my mom once beat my ass with a plastic frankenstein

  134. I use a shock collar Pepe
    Just not for bringing the ball to me.

  135. Andy, thank you.

    Saw your pics on FB – are those noise-cancelling headphones, and do they really help your son?

  136. I had the belt and crutches. I think the belt was worst.

  137. Phaaaa.

    All these instrumentalities. My Daddy’s Pimp Hand was STRONG, dammit.

  138. They’re regular old shooting range headphones, and they help him a lot. He’s going through this phase where he’s really sensitive to certain sounds. If he wasn’t wearing them, he’d have his fingers in his ears, which is pretty debilitating.

  139. Vmax, I can’t find one for $5, but I did find one for $10. This is a Kindle 2.

  140. Yeah, belt was the worst.

  141. He really had a great time on the trip, and we got some excellent pictures, considering we only had the iPhones.

  142. Andy,
    Did he make it through the whole play? That would be cool. How about the train-ride? Even I would like that! Beats the hell out of driving!

  143. He made it to intermission, which was actually better than I expected. Loves, LOVES the train.

  144. The worst?

    Hot Wheels track.

    Orange PITA.

  145. You ain’t been belt beat ’til you’ve been beat with this: http://tinyurl.com/cwbpswq

  146. xbrad, i got the hot wheels treatment once

    THE HORROR

  147. Coat hanger.

    /Christina Crawford

  148. if only I could last as long as a Space Pen™

    Did I say that out loud?

  149. The pics of him were awesome, Andy.

  150. Roamy,
    The belt was easy. The cord with 3 #12 wires(stranded 1/2″dia) was really bad. The spoon, or ruler was easy-peasy.
    It got to be, when the cord came out, I’d make it out the back-door so she had to chase me down the block, in front of the neighbors.
    I was faster than she was. I just stayed a little bit ahead, so she thought she had a chance. It was cool.
    She NEVER caught me.

  151. Thanks, Cyn.

  152. Hot Wheels track.

    I like the way your mom thinks.

  153. DON’T MAKE ME COME IN THERE!

  154. Hot wheels track stung like a mo-fo. The sound was pretty impressive too.

  155. fuckin 12 ga. shotgun was a bit much mom.

    A BIT MUCH

  156. Rub some dirt on it, son.

    /Dave’s mom

  157. Dave’s Mom and my mom must have been related.

  158. fuckin 12 ga. shotgun was a bit much mom.

    Com’on, it was only #7 birdshot!

  159. Seriously. I listen to some of the crap the 13 year old girl 12 year old boy says to me sometimes, and I think “WTF am I doing wrong? I NEVER would have thought it ok to say this kind of shiznit to my Dad. I’d have to count my teeth after I woke up, and peeled myself out of the wall.”

  160. . . . She NEVER caught me.

    Holy crap. RUNNING? Had I come home after running I probably would have ended up with brain damage.

    Never run unless you don’t plan on coming back home.

  161. I sure do miss that woman.

    the willow switch, not so much

  162. More brain damage, I should say.

  163. I am out see yous in the morning.

  164. ” I probably would have ended up with brain damage.”

    We thought you did…….

  165. Running was always a HUGE no-no at my house. Or else!!11!1

    ————
    Nighty night, Vman.

  166. I’m going to see Mom tomorrow night. I’m going to bring her a bag of dandelion greens ripped out of my yard and make her very happy.

    We will have a nice visit and we won’t talk about that light blue house slipper she went all ninja on my ass with when I was a kid.

    Terrycloth upper.

    White vinyl sole.

  167. Laura, does your mom make dandelion wine?

  168. Laura’s my sister?

  169. After the running, I would wait for my very reasonable, logical father to come home, from one of his 3 jobs. He would make everything okay.
    The old “Wait ’till your father comes home” was my escape clause. He knew she was “Off the rails” and would calm it down.
    She was “Bat Shit Crazy”.

  170. No, she enjoys the bitter greens, Jewstin.

  171. I love how the leftists got a lot of us suspended on Twitter for “spam”, when it was really for ridiculing their stupid #UAWOW hashtag.


  172. I never heard that one before, BiW.
    That was, interesting.

  173. Gord ain’t everyone’s cup of tea.

    I’m more partial to the Canadian Railway Trilogy, Sundown, the Ballad of the Edmund Fitzgerald, but it was a hit for him.

  174. I must be confused about what dandelions are cause around here I thought they were spiny.

    Maybe Russian thistle?

    Anyway, I wouldn’t eat those fuckers.

  175. I saw a picture of what you call a dandelion, and no, it’s not the same plant we have here, Dave.
    http://is.gd/sg7ROq

    Some people love bitter flavors. Mom is one of those. Boiling chicory and dandelion weeds is kind of an old timey ginny/fronch thing. It is very healthful. I’m not one for the bitter greens, but the cooled pot liquor is very refreshing on a hot day.

    They sell cultivated european dandelion greens in the grocery stores now, but they’ve bred out the bitterness that characterizes our native weed.
    So…I planted some of the real deal in my garden for Mom.

  176. Dave, this is dandelion:

    http://tinyurl.com/6s2wu4w

    I rarely see them here. I don’t think the climate agrees with them.

  177. AHH.. yes, we have those, but they aren’t what we call dandelion.

    We’re retarded.. We have every weed known on the planet.

  178. My younger brother [God rest his soul] stole dad’s belt once and threw it in the trash. Pops was pissed.

  179. OK, what the fuck does Dave call a dandelion?

  180. Some big spiny thistle, xbrad.

  181. Yeah, it flowers with those little white things you blow away *to fuck up your neighbor’s yard* but I’m misnaming pure dandelion,, that thing with the soft weed leaves and yellow flower… we gots those

  182. Unchecked they grow up to five feet or so before they collapse of their own weight, bull thistle maybe. I don’t know, fuckin vulture weed maybe

  183. I think it might be too hot here for dandelions. Hell, it’s too hot here for people, who am I kidding.

  184. From someone at FB, too good not to share: Do You Have A Dirty Mind? http://youtu.be/nYRQFVSvSPc

  185. these fuckin weeds are tough..

    aiyee.. need sleeps

    much love.. many wrong touches.. night kids

  186. Nighty dreams, Dave.

  187. Cyn – Cute video.

  188. It only took me 8 hours to set up my new (to me- it’s 8 years old) TiVo.

  189. Eight hours? Were the instructions in Taiwanese or something?

  190. More Dirty Mind Stuff
    (I swear, this is totally accidental that I’m stumbling across this stuff):
    http://www.popcrunch.com/29-accidentally-sexual-logos/?img=158419

  191. No, just really crappy old Toshiba box. Had to powercycle about 30 times!

  192. “Powercycle”? Is that was you call it these days?

  193. I saw that tonight too, Xbrad. Looks like NiceDeb was taking up the cause as well; she had a list of almost 10 that had been suspended as of maybe 45 minutes ago. It is just too easy to push a button to “flag” someone.

  194. If they can’t win the argument, they’ll shut you up.

    And they are the tolerant ones.

    *spit.

    G’nite!

  195. **Bans J’ames from H2**

  196. I wanna know what derp is. I want you to show me.

  197. wakey wakey.

  198. If my dogs don’t bring it to me, I don’t play. They chase each other around for toys, though, so I don’t think they mind too terribly much.

    Zelda’s pretty good at fetch, and she’ll play for hours and hours. I’ve NEVER begged her to give it to me. If she doesn’t bring it back, I go do something else.

    OR, another way is to have two balls and just throw the other one- keep rotating. They drop the one when the take off for the second. At least my dogs did.

  199. Michelle’s schedule for today, note an official event paired with every fundraiser:

    Colorado Springs, CO
    1:20 PM MDT Speaks to Obama campaign volunteers and supporters.
    3:00 PM MDT Delivers remarks during the Opening Ceremony for the 2012 Warrior Games. More than 200 wounded, ill and injured service members and veterans will compete in the third annual Warrior Games.

    Tucson, AZ
    5:40 PM MST Arrives at Tucson International Airport where she will be greeted by youth volunteers at Tucson Village Farm, a working urban farm built by and for the young people of Tucson.
    6:10 PM MST Delivers remarks at a fundraiser.

  200. “If my dogs don’t bring it to me, I don’t play.”

    Bubba does this in water. When fetching a stick from a lake he will release it just before getting back to shore. I think it’s his way of saying once is enough.

  201. Don’t know if you caught it upthread, Car in, we lost our first chicken. Looked like she broke her neck somehow, probably jumping and hitting her head or tripping. Buried her a couple of feet deep out in our woods.

    New poat in 10 min.

  202. I didn’t see that. Yea, dead chickens is kinda how it goes.
    I thought I had lost them ALL yesterday, but we found them way deep in the woods.

  203. Sometimes they’ll just start pecking one.

  204. OhHi!

  205. Yeah, we got more than we needed. Better an accident killing one than a racoon or disease killing 10. Still a little sad, though.

    New poat.
