Ha ha! I forgot about that, but it was for swimmers. People would swim or tube in it, and get sucked down into eddies and undertows. Many times the bodies weren’t found for months. As far as I know, the death count wasn’t for vehicular deaths.

Hwy 178 between Bakersfield and Lake Isabella is known locally as the Kern Canyon Road. I drove it 2x a week all through high school (early eighties) and never felt endangered by falling rocks, unless it had just rained. But that part of Cali just doesn’t get that much rain, so not wasn’t much of a concern. Fun road…

I was more reminded of Mathew 7:21-23:

Thanks! I'll give it a spin....

In my stripper-pole fantasies, “Sex-type Thing” is my song. Thanks for making me rethink that.

I make my dog’s food, because she has a bad reaction to any kind of poultry. It’s hard to find food in my budget that doesn’t have poultry in it. So, once a month I makes big pot of brown rice, hamburger, green beans and potatoes for her. She absolutely loves it. I’ve never seen her refuse ANY kind of potato; she…

Exactly. My daughter went from 6 lbs 9 oz to 5 lbs 11 oz in a week. We went to formula, stat. I was lucky, tho - there were no mommy bloggers then, so I was able to skip the shaming part. Oh, and she was born via c-section, was never “seeded” and yet still has the best immune system in the family. Never got a cold…

For me, it’s split: the verb is “come” (oh god oh god oh god...) and the noun (jizz) is “cum.” When I “O” it’s with an o, babes. With a u feels less celebratory.

When I was about five years old, and my cousin was about 20, she saw my confusion because my sister was just starting her period and I didn’t know was going on and she thought it was a travesty that I didn’t know what it was all about. So, she pulled me aside and said, “do you want to see me pull my tampon?” I was…

That concert last night was broadcast live worldwide via HBO. So, the most public and highly produced venue possible was given to highlight EoDMs return to the stage. Also not noted in the OP, after the Patti Smith song, U2 left the stage and let EoDM close the show. Classy and gracious, no matter what egos are…

I just showed her your response and she howled with laughter.

My 16 year old daughter would catch it, name it, and tame it within a week. She's like a young Steve Irwin.

I remember when she was starting out and it was a huge plus for her that he was her famous brother in law. Good times.

This thread is so long, I haven’t had a chance to go through the whole thing yet and see if someone else is posted this same thought. However, if the restaurant is using a commercial rotating toaster (you know, the kind that has the chain driven mechanism that pulls the toast through like a pizza oven) it’s actually…

I thought she was perfect in Drive Angry, which is by far the best Nic Cage movie in terms of insane Nic-cage-iness. Never found a reason to hate.

Loooooooooooove this gif. Stealing now.

I think the saddle back jeans need to make a comeback. Remember Dittos? In every color? And sometimes the saddle back stitching would be a rainbow.

Less than 24 hours after my father’s death, my family was siiting in a booth at Chili’s laughing our asses off. Really, really silly-stories, memories (and a touch of hysteria).

Wow.

Thank you. I recently went from 155 to 130 because my blood pressure was off the charts, the stress was overwhelming, and heart disease is a thing in my family. Yeah, I got more bangable, but that was not my motivation to lose weight, at all. And when I gain a few pounds, I feel it in my energy and bp, so yes, I do…
