Total Recall

This just in...
Calif. recall blocked
Court postpones gubernatorial election
Federal appeals court rules historic vote cannot proceed as scheduled because some votes would be cast using outmoded punch-card ballot machines.

With Cash dead, we'll never know the answer to the eternal question of how the narrator wound up in a California DOC clink when he shot a man in Reno. We'll all have to come up with our own explanations now.

Personally, I'm going with the law school hypo about dual venue when the bullet crosses state lines.

Oh no, say it ain't so. First Bennifer calls it off and now this? I'm going to have to start watching reality TV for entertainment now.

Heard a story on NPR this weekend that was playing excerpts of Ah-nold speeches and I couldn't get the visual image of the Terminator out of my head. "Vote for me, or I'll be back".

No, no, no. I meant, someone was calling those lyrics slop, or even a post ABOUT those lyrics slop? I was agreeing with you. I was saying, that ain't slop.

Question

I just bought an enormous 16 ounce bag of Swedish Fish. On the bag, in huge red letters, it reads "2 oz FREE!". This is not right.

Didn't I pay for all 16 oz. Perhaps I paid less per ounce than I might have prior, but it's not like there's really 2 ounces in there that I didn't pay for...

This is twisting my brain.

On another note, why are said fish Swedish?

Bn(really didn't sleep enough last night)B

Alternatively, this could prove that James Lipton is the biggest suck-up sucker who ever sucked; who will say anything to fawn all over his guest.

The red color is symbolic of their commie underpinnings. Just like the fucking swedes.

Past probation violation.

What about the ones that aren't red? I like the green swedish fish. But I hate gummi bears and most other gummi candy. Strange.

And that is a lot of swedish fish. Did you have a healthy meal today? Don't eat them all in one sitting. You could get sick!

:shame:

As far as the free thing, if the normal swedish fish amount is 14 oz, and they added 2 oz, of course, you got 2 oz for free, or if they lowered the price so that you are only paying for 14 oz and not 16, you got 2 for free.

That or its you know, a gimmick.

Umm, in what way does Screech make Gandhi look like a child pornographer?

Anne
What the heck was Screech doing on Actor's Studio in the first place?

I think they are made (or originally made) by a Swedish company. Now they may be made here - I have not had them in a while. What does your bag say?
