If you can steal a modern car without the keys (it would be REALLY stupid if he left the keys in there), the fact that it's locked isn't really going to slow you down.

It looks like her Lee Press-ons could be stuck in her braces.

And chicks don't dig the General Lee, chicks dig John Schneider.

We don't care. We're not looking at her teeth.

Because all of the baseball team's gear was in it.

Plus, usually all you need is a screwdriver - or what Bilmore said.
You'd think a man with that kind of money would have paid for the OnStar.

Play your cards right, and I'm sure he'd be all over your sake squirter. I don't think he's very busy these days.

I think lavendar is a variant of purple, not pink, so this may be my color sense more than anything.

On a different note, can someone explain the difference between tracheostomy and tracheotomy?

"-stomy" is derived from the latin for "hole" - so, you cut a hole in something. "-tomy" means, cut. Slice. Like, "vasectomy".

That's not doing it for me. Can you use them each (not vasectomy, but the trachea ones) in sentences that show the difference?

A tracheostomy is when they have to remove a portion or all of the thrachea, e.g., when you have throat cancer. A tracheotomy is an emergency procedure where they slice a hole in the trachea to insert a breathing tube, usually performed when there is an obstruction or swelling closing off the esophagus and the patient can't be intubated, or performed when there is not means of intubating, for instance in the woods.

Which one would they do to someone who has been intubated? The only time I've been privy to one was for a person who was intubated, and they were waiting to do the trache____my until the person was stable. Apparently being intubated for a long time is bad, and having the breathing thingy go in below the vocal cords is better. The health issue did not have anything to do with the throat at all, it was a lung thing.

Understood -- I was thinking of it more as an occasional thing, rather than a permanent change. You know, something like this:



instead of this all the time.

Actually, I was going to say he's too old for me and hasn't aged all that well, but this picture says otherwise sortof - except for the chest hair.



Plus, he says his schedule's too full for me.

Schneider stars in Smallville as Jonathan Kent, father to a teenage Clark Kent. Recently, Schneider directed and starred in the original television movie Mary Christmas, with Cynthia Gibb. He also has appeared in numerous other original television movies, including Michael Landon, the Father I Knew, True Women, Night of the Twisters, The Legend of Ruby Silver, Texas and Desperate Journey. He can also be heard as the voice of the lead character in Kids' WB!'s animated series The Mummy.

On the big screen, he stars in the upcoming Lightning: Storm of Destruction and also appeared in Snow Day, with Chevy Chase, and Garry Marshall's Exit to Eden.
A respected singer and songwriter as well, Schneider did 487 performances of the Tony Award-winning musical Grand Hotel and has released 11 solo albums, including a No. 1 album and four No. 1 singles.

They do a tracheotomy in such circumstances. The only time they do a tracheostomy is when they actually have to remove part of the throat. This would generally be limited to cases of cancer, severe burns, that sort of thing.

Yeah, it was stupid to leave unlocked and it's easy to steal a car. The tools are easy but the skill is not; I don't think a layman can easily do it just because someone told him what to do. Likewise slimjimming it without experience.
