Sent her to Scotland, didya? That'll put things in the balance, sure......[:D]

11. W. E. Coyote now works for the city government and spends much of his time wasting tax payers dollars. Probably works for Mayor R. Runner.

State government. I waste everyone's money while working for Governor "I got mine-screw the rest of you" Corzine. [:)]

When I am not honoring the Thread I am busy convincing people that jail isn't so bad and they should just tell me what they did. In 3016 days (not that I am counting or anything but it is August 14th 2014 and a Monday) I am going to use this same skill to sell used cars.

This will not be a problem. If I can sell people jail I can sell freezers to Eskimos. [:'(]

Fellow Threadians,

I note that the Thread has prospered much the last several months. As we approach 10,000 posts I find myself reflecting back on the knowledge and wisdom gleaned from the many words of sagely advise. I have learned that:

1. The Thread is good [&o]
2. Don't eat fish vandaloo unless you're prepared for the consequences [:@]
3. The bunny is a heretic and needs to repent his evil ways [:-]
4. Robert is smarter than his company's firewall and security system
5. Martians have a sense of humor
6. Mike is being brain washed every day at work [X(]
7. Terminus is Danish for Spam
8. Speedy is a nice guy, but has no luck invading islands that start with W or with foreign women.[;)]
9. A certain penguin we know leads a double life as overlord and professional salsa dancer
10. Don't seek Robert's advise when buying a house [;)]
11. W. E. Coyote now works for the city government and spends much of his time wasting tax payers dollars. Probably works for Mayor R. Runner.
12. And last, but not least Niceguy still can't spell worth a d$#@. [8|]


You keeping a list? Hell, I forgot most of it (must be the brainwashing).

Not to get too political, but I heard (from a very reliable source) that Rupert Murdock hosted a fund raiser for Sen. Clinton and FOX has hosted her a couple of times. Prepare to be brain washed heavily during the next presidential election.

Gasp! Do you mean you got this from actually recognizing the clues??[X(][X(][&o][&o]

i had thought you went to iTunes and put in "BAN" for the group and saw what popped up... (or googled it).

Nope, not with that one...[:D]

You've still got a ways to go. A Danish company has found a way to sell sand to the Saudis...

One word -

Concrete

The sand in Saudi is so fine it's like flour, and makes for poor quality concrete. We, on ze other hand, have very good sand and loads of experience in making very high quality concrete. Thus, selling sand to people who live in a desert. Clever, neh?

Sell people jail??[X(][X(] You're not getting into my living room.[:-]

You would be suprized how easy it is. You get some 2 bit burglar who has been a criminal all his life and you explain to him that 3 hot meals a day and a roof over his head is better than the life he is living now. Throw in a weight room and drug rehab (which is what forced him against his will into a life of crime in the first place) and it starts to look good. I've had them start confessing to crimes I did even know about yet.

Sincerity is everything and now that I can fake that getting confessions is easy. I have convinced rapists that I understand that it wasn't their fault and that they need help. They just have to tell me what really happened and what "Made" them do it. Add some bluffing and BS and they all end up in jail.

Everyone has the right to remain silent but few people have the ability.[:D]

Ok. This actually makes sense. Although you would think that they could find it closer than Denmark...OH! That reminds me!!

I remeber just prior to the Gulf War in 91, I was watching news of a clip from Baghdad and I saw in the background a gas station selling gas for 2 cents a liter (I did the conversion).[X(]

Of course, we COULD start adding some of Nik's foibles to the list, (i.e. Nik has a fetish about punting cats; Nik prefers Doc Martins for punting cats) - however, if we did that, the List would be as long as The Thread!![:'(]
