At a 7th floor in an Akiba-Building, it was quite a long shaker. The 'earthquake-proof' building…

That's a pretty name: Sear-sha. My family went to see this movie and said to skip it. Weird ending.

Do these drug rallies do ANY good at all? It's probably better than doing nothing ... or is it? Marijuana is a gateway drug for some users, but not all. Once you're an avid smoker and you have friends who also smoke, sooner or later one of them is going to be smoking something else, or they'll bring someone to your house who's into something harder. This is what I've experienced so far.

You guys are funny. I can't count on the well-trained Mr. S-Girl for an honest answer anymore, but I suspect in his natural state, when I'm not watching, he's like you. He'll head to the auto show with his brother to look at the cars AND the girls, and talk to the girls if at all possible. If I ask him he'll say, "Oh no, I hate it when they have the girls standing in front of the cars. It just ruins the view." Sure.

Actually, there's a funny bit on Fail Blog where someone took the synopsis for the animated Pocahantas movie, changed a few names here and there and it turned into Avatar, lol :)

Not all females. You'd have to be a pretty serious attention ho to want to ride around in that. It is interesting to look at for a few minutes. Wouldn't have wanted the job of placing all those crystals on there with some hot glue and a tweezers, howevs.

I actually wouldn't mind seeing more of the CAR, but ... they're in the way. What's their purpose, anyway? Are they trained sales professionals, or do they work on the male subconscious, in effect saying, "If you buy the car, you'll have me tooooooo ..." ??

I'm sorry my dears, but: LOL. I must be desensitized. First of all, a 33yo posing as 16. Second - the girl buys it? Yes, the police said she looked like she'd be easy to fool ... and then there's his family. This is just all kinds of crazy. You can't make up this kind of crazy, someone has to actually go out and do it.

This is so crazy. I'll admit it, my first thought was, "Who the H would want to take a 1-mo. old baby??!" But, yeah -- it's bad to leave the baby in the car. Just not a good idea, even if the car's running. Bad, bad. What ever happened to daycare or the babysitter?

“the Indian woman leads the white man into the wilderness, and he learns the way of the people and becomes the savior.” LOL. If I ever talk you guys into letting me lead you into the wilderness, count on us all dying, probably the next day. And I did marry the white guy, but he couldn't save a squirrel in a chipmunk fight. I still love him. Not because he's white, but it does help me find him in the semi-dark. Racism! We've got to start taking ourselves less seriously or life's going to get harder. All of this will go away once we mix and mix and mix and mix until we're one color and we can call ourselves earthling or something. The last movie I took major issue with was the old French movie Jules and Jim - the female lead is characterized as a dimwit who constantly needs tending to and saving. I couldn't even watch that. I might come back after I see Avatar. Or not. I'll probably be wowed by the special effects.

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to keep food on the table. At least they're not sitting in a cubicle (ppl cage) all day.

Like I wouldn't guess they were riot police if I saw one of em coming at me with a big shield ... and if I'm really in the mood to riot -- would I care? "Ohhhh, it's the popo ...," drops sign and goes back home.

Oh, the things royalty must do - and smile while doing it. Those of us who are part of the regular citizenry can say, "Y'know what? I think I'll pass on that and let YOU go. See ya on the other side."

We have venison, fresh water fish, wild rice, potatoes, corn and fry bread, which is like a puffy naan. However, one of my fambly members discovered turducken (a turkey stuffed with a duck stuffed with a chicken stuffed with stuffing), so we may be kicking the traditional foods to the curb any moment now. I think this is still less calories than a KFC meal. I can't stand their breading, which tastes pretty much like straight up salt to me. My own fried chicken tastes much better.
