  1. So... @xyz48B responds to my falling and injuring myself with laughter? Isn't that against the site rules? I certainly think it should be! Way to show compassion for your elders, young man.
  2. I slipped in my bathroom Dec 5th & fractured 2 ribs and my spine. The man in the next bed in the ER (who wound up being my roommate once we were both admitted) had fallen on his stairs and broken his replaced knee. Did your dog get calls from your grandma's insurance company looking for sources of liability to cover the costs? If so, did he/she answer them or let them go to voicemail?
  3. She must win the three-legged race at the family picnic every year!
  4. But do they know shorthand? Don't you know email is considered passe, too? Ah, the joys of aging! My best friend loves the fact that she has medical appointments on almost every day she's off from work.
  5. Wait until your generation all has arthritis in your fingers. That probably just means they've attained a no-knock warrant and will be busting down your door momentarily. Hey, @marylander1940 is of of an earlier generation when there were no phones. He had to go to the telegraph office to retrieve his messages. Poor guy! 😁🤣😇 I'm surprised you need an explanation, but the purpose of a car is to transport you and your passengers/cargo quickly and comfortably. You're welcome for this clarification, btw.
  6. I watched the movie again and there's no indication Gheorghe is an alcoholic. When he has his first meal at the farm he's offered a drink (or to go to the pub) but said no thanks. When he & Johnny do go to the pub, Johnny gets buzzed, but Gheorghe nurses his drink and doesn't even finish half of it. I know this pic was used in all the advertising, but I don't recall a corresponding scene in the movie:
  7. I'm in a don't give a damn mode, and getting more so with each passing day. And I'm in no hurry for spring training (which bores me to tears) or to see what penny-pinching Hal will allow Cashman to do when (if?) the lockout ever ends. I can think of few things stupider than baseball doing this and risking alienating fans who have little patience or concern to spare after 2 years of covid.
  8. BOYS WILL BE BOYS... A 12-year-old boy and two teens are facing murder charges in the savage beating death of an elderly man during a carjacking in Philadelphia, authorities said. The trio of young suspects are accused of attacking Chung Yan Chin, 70, during a violent carjacking in the city’s Mayfair section on Dec. 2, police said. Prosecutors allege the youngsters walked up to Chin and knocked him to the ground as they started punching and kicking him to the face, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported. Police said “unknown offenders” then took off with Chin’s Toyota Camry. Chin was rushed to a hospital in critical condition with a brain injury and facial fractures, court documents show. He died from his wounds weeks later on Dec. 21. “Justice has to be done,” Mayfair resident Amy Ford told WPVI. “It is just not fair. It is sickening. It is terrible. It is too close to home.” John Nusslein, 18, of Northeast Philadelphia, was charged last month in Chin’s slaying, while an arrest warrant has been issued for Qiyam Muhammad, 16, police told The Post. The 12-year-old boy, who has been charged with murder as an adult, is not being identified by The Post due to his age. Both Nusslein and the 12-year-old are being held without bail and attorneys representing them did not return calls seeking comment, the Inquirer reported. Philadelphia police announced the murder charges against the 12-year-old Tuesday during a briefing on gun violence and carjackings. More than 800 were tallied in the city last year — or double the amount recorded in 2020, according to police statistics cited by the Inquirer. Some 71 homicides have occurred in Philadelphia thus far in 2022 as of Thursday, which matches the figure from the same time a year ago, police data shows. The figure on that date in 2015, however, was just 29 slayings. Philadelphia ended 2021 with 562 homicide victims, statistics show, the most in the city’s history. https://nypost.com/2022/02/18/philadelphia-teens-boy-12-charged-with-murder-in-carjacking/ AS IF I NEEDED ANOTHER REASON NOT TO LEAVE THE HOUSE...
  9. "Fahrvergnügen" means "driving enjoyment" in English Thousands of Porsches, Audis, and Lamborghinis were marooned on an unmanned burning cargo ship in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean Thursday. Crew members of the 650-feet-long Felicity Ace were evacuated from the transport ship to a hotel in the Azores Islands, as the ship was adrift 100 miles away from the Portuguese archipelago. None of the 22 sailors were harmed. Felicity Ace was likely too large to be towed to a port in the archipelago, which is more than 900 miles from the European mainland. The ship had been en route to Rhode Island from Germany. There were 3,965 Volkswagen AG vehicles on board, including 1,100 Porches. Volkswagen’s parent company manufactures its Volkswagen brand, as well as Porsche, Audi, and Lamborghini models, all of which were on board. “Our immediate thoughts are of relief that the 22 crew of the merchant ship Felicity Ace are safe and well,” a spokesperson for Porsche said. Anyone concerned by this incident and the implications on the car they’ve ordered should contact their Porsche dealer,” the statement read. One man tweeted that his custom-ordered Porsche Boxster Spyder was on the doomed ship. Base models of the vehicle sell for $100,000. In 2019, $300,000 Porsche models were among two thousand vehicles that sank with an Italian cargo ship near France, The Sun reported.
  10. Not much has changed. I still find Susie more interesting and likable than Midge. Joel's mother is still one of the most annoying characters in TV history. Sophie Lennon had one scene in the two episodes, and that was one scene too many for my liking.
  11. What happens if he grows a third ball or regenerated foreskin?
  12. Before season 4 of THE MESHUGANAH MRS. MAISEL begins came word season 5 would be its last. 🤑😱🤡
  13. Date of birth: 7 August, 1972 Eye color:Brown Height: 182 cm (5 ft 11 inch) Weight: 83 kg (183 lb) What makes this hot-assed Aussie so appealing, besides the baby face, the smooth body, and the rippled abs is his devotion to detail. When Brad Patton takes his mind to task and puts his red rocket to rump, the results are both astounding and incredibly sexy. Born Joel Mangs in Melbourne, Australia, but spending most of his formative years in Sweden, Patton was discovered by adult film director Chi Chi Larue. It wasn’t long before this Homeric hunk was dazzling the big screen in sexy, sweaty working-man fashion, honing his top-wise tricks of the trade. But, despite his success, Brad recently put the world of adult film on ice…literally. A talented figure skater, Brad took two silver medals in the 2006 World Outgames in Montreal, Canada and has wowed crowds during his stint with Disney on Ice. Currently, Brad is one of the professionals in the second season of Dancing on Ice on Dutch television. Though Brad’s life has gone through a metamorphosis and though he has for now left the industry, be sure to check out his body of work…and what a body it is! 28 March, 2016
  14. Every time I see or read about the strife in Canada, I hear this in my head and smile. I still have my old 45 somewhere.

  16. I read that this was the first English-speaking role for the actor that played Gheorghe, which is amazing, since he was by far the easiest to understand of all the actors in the film. He worked on a farm for 2 weeks before the filming, which makes his realistic scenes with the animals that much more impressive. One question... how did he manage to keep his facial stubble so perfectly sexy out there in the fields?
  17. I couldn't care less, but thought one of y'all might.
  18. I finally watched it and enjoyed it. I don't know how it wound up on XVideo.com, but I'm glad I found it there.
  19. Sending you all my personalized wishes for a happy day...
  20. ...which I serve on the backs and/or stomachs of firm, naked young men acting as coffee tables...
