Don't forget the chili on both the burger and and cheese fries.

Our condo pool was supposed to be done with repairs in February. It is almost September.

 

The air conditioning gave out in our unit.

 

It is 90 degrees out at night.

 

Life sucks.

Colo. School Bans Tag on Its Playground

By Associated Press

5 hours ago

 

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - An elementary school has banned tag on its playground after some children complained they were harassed or chased against their will.

 

"It causes a lot of conflict on the playground," said Cindy Fesgen, assistant principal of the Discovery Canyon Campus school.

 

Running games are still allowed as long as students don't chase each other, she said.

 

Fesgen said two parents complained to her about the ban but most parents and children didn't object.

 

In 2005, two elementary schools in the nearby Falcon School District did away with tag and similar games in favor of alternatives with less physical contact. School officials said the move encouraged more students to play games and helped reduce playground squabbles.

Tag? Banning tag?! That game is universal, and I fear for our future. What're they gonna ban next? Freeze tag? Kick the Can (I was never good at this, but my cousin was - the guy got the can every time). Geez - anyone ever play "Wall Ball" or "Suicide" (lovely game - whoever drops the ball has to touch the wall before some one nails them with the ball. Duck!) - my gosh, if that school bans tag, I guess Wall Ball is to be considered an act against humanity or something.

Welcome to the "Nanny States of America", where the lawsuit holds sway over the land, because we can't decide what to do; we have to have a law to "protect" us. Dodgeball will be next, Kansas, if hasn't been yet.

 

On a similar note, I'm sitting in one of the dining facilities on Keesler AFB this morning eating breakfast, when an ad regarding a class-action lawsuit against Bayer AG for side-effects resulting from Baycol comes on not once, but twice right after the first. On CNN Headline News of all channels.

 

I swear, the Founding Fathers must be looking down on us and wondering if breaking away from the British Empire was the right thing to do.

So will, I was watching a movie and it involved the military and they were trying to look up this weapon, and they looked it up in Jane's and it occured to me that that's actually a real military reference guide and not just something hilarious that you made up. There was some other reference that STSFers make and I just got it recently, but I can't remember it, I'll have to save that for another random post. Seriously DA, this is my favorite forum topic...randomness rocks.

Over in Britain: I'm sick and tired of stupid news reports on this being the tenth anniversary of Diana's death. Everyone I know feels the same. Just for hearing some of the Diana jokes I've heard recently I am so going to hell! Put this way, you don't want to hear the punchline to the joke "what was the last thing to go through Lady Di's mind?".

 

Its bad. ;)

although that IS a pretty funny punch line too.

you know, that reminds me of this article in the national enquirer where even the tabloid news was so slow that the front pages had a photo of jon benet ramsey, and a little starburst with the caption "the jon-benet murder, day 1437" or something ridiculous like that. i mean seriously, who could possibly care?!??! certainly not front page material anyway. and moreover, after 100 or so days, you dont refer to it in the 'days' term, move on to at least months or years.

 

 

 

oy! just had to vent a little there.

Both incidents now fall into the "beating a dead horse" category. No disrespect intended to those passed on.

Okay, just an update. The ceremony for it happened today and it took up TWO out of the FIVE terrestrial channels we get over here. Two channels? There wasn't even a body. What could they possibly have been filming?

 

But more importantly, the queen's hat was so cool. Whats the coolest hat in the world do you think?

Tricorner hat.

 

Arrrr!

The old flying helmets from WW2. Leather or canvas, doesn't matter. And the Snoopy hats the astronauts wear.
