Ah, yez. Pedro and friends have a very high cheese factor, and (given the general desolation of the surrounding area) monopolize quite effectively the attentions of the North-South travelers between NY and FLA on 1-95, through buying space on about 100 consecutive billboards on each side of the damn thing.
Sadly, the humor in the billboards is stronger than the attractions of the attraction.

I dunno, but SS's throat giving out aside, I blame the offense for the whole debacle. I mean, a blocked field goal, a sack on the 4 yard line AND two opportunities inside the New England 40 yard line all in overtime and yet somehow we still manage to lose the game? And that's not counting the blocked punt and two interceptions in regular play.

Is "shouting" a euphemism, kinda like "deposition"? Maybe next time he should get some assistance rather than trying to take care of the whole team himself.
Edited to fix spelling error.

She figures since she already degraded herself so much that she might as well get into the torturing. Eventually she releases one of the prisoners and sends her maid off with a confession. Everyone else is put to death and she is walled up.

Huh. Sounds a lot sexier than the real thing, though apparently she got around. I think some of the records of her trial still exist, and are supposed to be interesting. It does sound like she just got bored out of her skull and turned to witchcraft killed about 600 girls for fun, skincare and cuisine. But the whole thing, with her lovers, and turkish torture implements, and evil dwarf sidekick, does make for good gothic reading. But it is still an interesting story in light of the local politics. She was Hungarian, after all, and the region was slavic. And the reason she got arrested in the end was because the king owed her money and she was trying to collect.

Is "pencil dick" a side-effect of steroids? I always thought it was an overstatement, but the repeated references to funnels is making me think maybe it's really just descriptive.

All of this funnel talk is making me hungry for funnel cakes. Which in turn makes me hungry for corn dogs. Dammit.

I've read that 98% of the time, a block field goal or punt is caused by a failure* of the kicking/punting team. In other words, it's difficult to create a blocked kick, unless creation involves taking advantage of a blocking error.
*includes kicker/holder/snapper error.

No. Or if it is, it's subconscious or sublimated or whatever.

The shorter the distance of the attempt, the more likely it is to be the kicker's fault -- longer FGs require a lower trajectory and therefore are more dependant upon good blocking.
Of course, if the center bounces the ball back or the holder drops it, you pretty much know whose fault it is.

Good lord, I can die now.
As I have posted in the past, my first ever sexual crush, at the age of six, was Dick Gautier of game show guesting and hairy chest fame.
My favoriite When Plastic Surgeons Attack Celebs photo of all time is this:
But how could I have known that Dick, who is alive and well after all these years seeing me from precocious child to shriveled ovary bag has become a caricaturist (second only to mimes in the annoying artist category)? and that he gave the world this?
My life has come full circle.
