Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 128: The Search for Wenches

The weather guessers have now upped the forecast to 6-10". It is now flurrying, although it isn't expected to really hit until tonight.

99 and a wakeup until I get to walk across that stage and kiss college goodbye.

The groom comes in on a full grown elephant.

He doesn't need to steal ideas from Nicole Ritchie.

Howdy folks. Waiting for the Storm of the Century of the Week tonight. I am so over winter.
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 128: The Search for Wenches

Good morning Lodge. Tried to go for a run this morning and my head kept pounding, so I turned around and walked home. :mad:
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 128: The Search for Wenches

Good morning.:)

Hey SB, Good thing you listened to your body and didn't try to run through the discomfort of a pounding headache. There'll be other days for running. Hope you feel better as the day progresses.

Actually, the groom on an elephant thing is a Hindu custom. And I was kinda suggesting it more to diva to see if dork there was paying attention to any of the plans for the wedding.

Personally though, I would take the elephant along to ride during the bachelor party. Everybody does limos or party buses, but showing up to a strip club on an elephant or in an elephant drawn cart, that would be pretty dang cool to me.

Awesomeness. I plan on running around 4 tomorrow, 3 on Thursday, and then 6 on Saturday.

Good afternoon, Lodge.

Sounds like a decent plan. I'm on a rest day today, then going 4 tomorrow, 5 Friday, and 3 Saturday.

Things like this make me hate being lumped in with this generation.

What worries me most is not that this generation has never mailed a letter, it's that they can't take 5 seconds and think out how to do it! Heck, I never had to write a check until I was 25. But it's not exactly bloody rocket science to figure out. And with the Internets at their disposal you'd think they'd be able to figure it out pretty quick.

That's my feeling as well. Although I was 'lucky' I guess to have been given a good education and being brought up by some pretty good parents who taught me some important life lessons on how to be a (fairly) functional member of society. I learned how to do checks and whatnot I think in middle school, maybe even elementary, and mailing a letter was definitely done in elementary.

I never had any kind of lesson on writing checks, I figured it out watching my mom write them for years. I never had to write one until I was 18, and that was at work. I know we did a letter writing unit in English every year from 2nd through 7th grade.
It's really sad when you look at the simple, commonplace things that aren't being taught anymore, not by parents or in the schools. I worked with a girl at the arena who didn't know how to use a mop, and had only ever used a dishwasher instead of washing things by hand. She was a real treat to close with. :rolleyes:

I think every place setting should have an origami hockey player sitting at the place setting.

The thing is, I think he'd actually want to do that. If he does, then his family can pay for it.

I love it when a cash register goes down and the clerk stares dumbly at the thing thinking it will magically tell them how much change to give. :D
When my daughter said she didn't need to know how to read a map because she'd buy a GPS my wife almost lost it.

My kid can read a map better than my wife can. I remember the first road trip I took with my wife and I asked her to look at the map to see where we should turn and she had no idea what to do. She knew how to get places by "turning when you get to the big tree."

That would work in places like North Dakota, where there is only one. :D

Looky what the cat dragged in..:p

Were you absent when everyone was writing about that a few yrs back in the grinding thread at the time?

Suggest something completely outrageous and be serious about it. that usually gets some sort of half azzed opinion.

I heard the screech from many mouths after I read this...

and this made me LOL

Hopefully, she turns a bit before she gets to the big tree. :)
