It's not FAIR! I'm UNBALANCED!
Been listing to the left for years now. I think it's that my left arm weighs slightly more than the right one (which gets the benefit of more regular exercise).

It's not a problem, though, really, unless I'm in the passing lane, or happen upon the local Klan rallies.

4. I'm just not
Charles Shackleford "amphibious" enough to pull that off. Cheers to the Pack fans who remember those good old days.

8. Our four person GGO plays by the modified Charles Shackleford system
GGO=Greater Geek Open

We needed a set of rules and scoring system to FAIRly and accurate resolve disputes and scoring so we have established the Modified Charles Shackleford scoring system.

7. Sounds like "My Cousin Vinny"
But, you could have been bragging too! :P

I had a 66 Chevy Impala with a 396, 390HP Turbo-Jet. No Posi, though. ;-)

11. But you do know the movie now, right?
"Dazed and Confused." If you've not seen it, I highly, highly, highly, highly, highly recommend it. You can brag to the world how you've been favorably compared to Matthew McConaughey...

13. She may live there now,
but Sandra B's a local girl from way back here in NC.

I'd prefer to get close to that Joey Lauren Adams, anyway - grrrrrrrowl!

14. They say that if you shop in the grocery store out where she lives...
...Sandra, that is, that you'll run into her. Almost makes me want to drive out there to go shopping, but my ice cream would melt before I got home.

mmm...Joey Lauren Adams...she looked GOOD during all the reunion stuff. I mean, better than I remember. :D

16. Honestly
her voice is the most attractive feature of JLA. Talk about melting! I'm just about hypnotized by it.

3. Unfair and unbalanced
Hay, that phrase is NOT a trademark (or copyright or whatever) and just happens to describe FAUX News better than the one they have. So we can can all rejoice. Unfair and unbalanced. Unfair and unbalanced. Unfair and unbalanced. Say it all you wnat.

15. since you put it that way
Edited on Wed Aug-13-03 11:01 AM by QuietStorm

and I do take my hat off to it. Best one reserves progressive opinions for when one is truly embraced by a progressive crowd. Although, even once one is embraced by any pack, will always come that time when one must also conform to the definition that defines any given pack.

Eventually this always leads one to have to compromise one's individuality and one's free thought can become restricted by any group's imago. Once something is defined it runs the risk of becoming restrictive. Definitions can be binding, even the most progressive one.

As one grows, overtime any labeling system falls short. Best to stand close to the exit. It makes for a swift escape, in the event a stampede should arise. If major differences are preceived. Well. You know those pack mentalities.
