Anyway, it tasted OK and as any dog will tell you if it tastes OK it must be OK.
Wait a second, now that I think about dogs and their vile licking, I'm not so sure. I could be dead to me now.

Waiter, there is a fly in my coffee ?
Don't worry sir that spider on your toast will soon get him !

It's much more fun to watch gnats get drunk when they backstroke through a glass of cabernet. I guess if the coffee is hot enough it might sterilize anything the fly added to it.

DSX, don't worry. That bug will take the hair you've accumulated on your chest over the eons, and return it to your scalp.

andyffer · #**1907** 06-28-2011, 02:58 PM

youre not playing enough games then

So that's how it works.

Are you shaving yet? I noticed during CtoC3 that the stubble was kind of filling in.

jocamryn · #**1912** 06-28-2011, 10:08 PM

PS3.... I suppose it's all subjective, but I've been with PS since the original PSOne... No use in switching over now, I'm committed...

andyffer · #**1913** 06-28-2011, 10:14 PM

Well played! Pretty sure I heard his voice crack at one point too.

Same here. I have had PS1, 2 and 3. My only disappointment is that the new final fantasy games have been boring and onerous. For example, you can't "explore" the open world until you BEAT the game. Sorry, after beating the game I couldn't care less about exploring. Then the rest of the game was literally a linear path. "Go down this mountain pass that you have to take this specific route" "Go down this forest that forces you to take this specific path". I really enjoyed FFI where you could walk in any direction!

Sweet! My wife took a tour of a sub in Pensacola earlier this year and had a good time. I'd second Furby's request for a personal tour!

DSX, don't tell me you don't have one of these!

I don't spend time outside when grilling without one. Usually too dark by that time to clearly ascertain WHAT all has gotten in your drink. Sure, the alcohol provides some disinfecting properties, but I'd rather play it safe.

jocamryn · #**1917** 06-29-2011, 01:11 PM

I've seen enough. Pure SEX! I'd take this over AR and Gia at the same time.

Who wants to take a stab at how much this is going to cost?

That's a VA class sub, not as cool sounding as 'Seawolf'. Not sure you are cleared to see much more than the head.

Not crazy about the front. It looks a toothless smile,

so how many of us are "corporate jet owners"

corporate jet owner = you make over 250k lol

Typical charter–$3,000 an hour

It is possible, of course, that someone earning $250,000 a year might spend 5% to 10% of their annual income on a single flight by chartering, in which case we could call them "corporate-jet fliers." But it is unlikely. Even more unlikely is someone earning $250,000 a year paying $500,000 to $1 million a year to operate a jet–even if they received it free.
