"FLAGstaff, Arizona...DON'T forget Winona...KINGman, BARstow, SAN Bernadino..."

Good!

I’m so sorry. Were your parents supportive of you? And is Ativan a Wonder Drug or what? I’m glad you found it.

High school was one of the 2 happiest extended periods of my life, probably because it got me away from my parents. Mygod, I loved it, but not-so-much the nuns, although they generally left me alone. Never did get caught starting (just a little) streamer-paper fire along with Bob Haberkorn & Dan Buckley in the back of…

Damn, Ruby, get out of my head! How can they not be read in Billy’s voice? :-)

I’d like to get a look at Shrayber’s answers, except not. {Shudder.} ETA: Make no mistake, this is in NO way a slam at Shrayber; what would we do without him?

I imagine Farrah’s already done practically everyone.

The Bo one is excellent, as is he!

And I always save the basketball ones for last!

Have you ever seen an uninteresting/badly-done/just meh “30 for 30?” because I sure haven’t. They’re absolutely consistently riveting, imho.

I honestly don’t think I have any degrees of separation from anyone who might want to. Plus, hanging with either one of those women obviously puts one right in Madonna’s line of fire. No one is safe!

Best Steely Dan ever? "When Josie Comes Home."

Damn Kinja.

Though not nearly as noteworthy as your Oscar-winner, one of my ancestors is Bartholomew Gedney, one of the magistrates at the Salem Witch Trials (he later apologized) and who used to hang with John Alden. On my maternal grandpa’s side, I’m descended from a couple who, along with their 11 children, boarded a ship for…

ETA: Dogs, dogs...always something to add! I came off sounding like some sort of idiot Dog Expert. I may be an idiot but I’m no Dog Expert. I was merely relating my experience with this young GSMD lady, although I do think she’s fairly representative of her breed. They’re family dogs and they need their people!

Oh, lord...I’m really a Rottweiler person, so “patience and training” barely enter into what’s going on with this GSMD! Not that they don’t need those things...it’s just that dealing with this girl is nothing like dealing with the Rotties, although they’re all from basically the same stock. The Rotts are just so much…

"...what's the restriction on what we're allowed to like?"

I think you and I are around the same age! A Flash Tat is, when you're walking down the street, pass a parlor, walk in, see something and say, "I want that." Although the kids on my lawn may have changed things up while I was looking for my walker.

Yep. Every time I see some poor schlub with a tribal I think, "Thank god the _Presents dodged that bullet."

Also a function of world wars. The ideas, music, methods of artistic expression, countless wonderful things that American soldiers brought back with them from the wars and that greatly enriched their lives and ours ... are people trying to say that all this was a matter of them saying, "Oh, this is nice. Let's take…
