I'm fairly certain that, thanks to Hank and his excessive use of the term in a wide variety circumstances, many of which have little or no commonalities, has rendered the term about as useful as tits on a bull.

Consequently, you may feel free to use the term "whiff" in any and all circumstances, as it means everything and nothing at all.

Thank you for getting me. I may forgive you for not complimenting me on the board's best Frisky Dingo reference ever.

It is a gay bull? Because I hear they're fascinated by TITS!

Re: General discussion - Mom and Dad Esq.

" A 6-year-old wielding a light saber can be awfully intimidating to a boy who still sleeps with his teddy. "

NYTimes

Since when are light sabers and teddys incompatible?

Trick or Treat

So this year I've got a 10-year old Artemis and a 6-year old Dorothy. Of course, it will likely be cold and rainy, so those-with-candy probably won't know what costume lurks beneath the raincoat.

Happy Halloween, y'all.

ty it's nice you've apologized to penske and me, but there are a half dozen others you need to contact now that you've accepted your mistakes. maybe that's a better thing to work on than your "jokes?"

Re: General discussion - Mom and Dad Esq.

So I have this friend -- let's call him Joey Joe Joe Junior Shabadoo -- who travels some for business, often out of the country. His wife just got offered a terrific job, except that it involves working nights. Any suggestions about how to find someone who will provide childcare for the twelve-hour shifts when Ms. Shabadoo is working and he is out of town?
