See? Here's your mistake.

Yeah, well I had second thoughts about it. I may still do it. But it's not like you need any encouragement to slam me.

How about fluffy bunnies are cool to look at?

Are you sure you aren't thinking of "Lucky You," by Carl Hiaasen? Hiaasen, if anyone is looking for a light read, is one of the best fiction writers in the action/comedy/caper genre these days.

I read one of his books and thought it sucked. I would remember its name if prompted but its probalby circa 1994. Talk about overrated.

I have taken to rereading books I own that I love and havent read in awhile over rolling the dice and buying new stuff after the Kavalier and Clay recommendatios. Hello? Itsa bout comic book charactres. boring.

With age, and gravity, does the way one measures cup size change, or do you just remember previous size? I know most of you wouldn't know yet, but perhaps your mothers might.

Total volume would stay the same, wouldn't it? Only the shape would change? So the cup size shouldn't change.

Shut up. You're killing the buzz.

P.S. With age, and gravity, does one's penis gain length, but lose girth?

I got an extension, (went from 3" to 4.25") so I don't know.
PS I didn't mean my question to be mean. You already claimed no droop earlier.

Given sequels another year or so and you can find out firsthand. no pun. its like a long segueway from an orange to a banana. I know this from seeing copies of Natinal Geographic

Concur, granddad. Hiaasen rocks.

Confidential to Bilmore:
given some of the trivial knowledge you have gained and evidence on Politics, it is a shocking revelation of mis-spent study time that you lacked this basic tittie info.

Time others spent measuring, I spent . . . not measuring. They were all nice, in their own ways.

Reread all Vonnegut you have.

Reread some Scott Fitzgerald/Hemingway once every two years. It will make you think you don't drink enough. It will make you want to drink more. In a good way.

Yes, it may be the right time to trade her in.

I had three free days recently, and reread every Travis McGee book written. That made me want to drink more, too.

I just rerad the greatest comic (not comic book) jnovel of all time- one that I picked up freshman year of college at a supermarket. i have had to replace it more than once since I wear it out. And its out of print. I cant reveal its name bc there are only a couple more out of print editions left on amazon.

i am currently rreading an old favorite that I cannot put down. I havent watched tv in a coulple of days. Cant say what it is bc its on my desk but I hear they are making a movie out of it unfortunately. If Gwyneth was cast in the lead, it would be really unsacred.

EDITED to say that since I cant reveal this stuff, the only way I can keep this from being a post just to post is by saying, PM me and I will share the name of the latter. If you agree not to post about it sijnce its outable as its on my desk.

Then perhaps this discussion should be conducted in Bilmore Handspans(R). Send us the conversion table, and we'll go from there.

Are you wearing the right bra size? (Extra credit if you post it.)

Note on measuring your tits in the office - close the door. No, actually, I just wanted to say you don't need a tape measure - use a scarf or something to measure around, and then you can use the straight ruler you found in your desk on the first day and haven't used since to measure the length of the fabric.

Yes. 34B (although the bra I have on now is just "medium" -- it's sort of stretchy, so not as "technical").

I knew that trick! (I use dental floss instead of a scarf, though -- not as warm in winter, though.)

Some Boodles on ice?

The new editions have forwards by Hiasson. It really captures the John D./McGee essence and informs the reader how John D. was WAY ahead of his time environmentally.*

*which is/was useful for me since I didn't read any of the Mcgee books until after John was dead.

Speaking of the size of your python...

It turns out the purported longest snake in the world at 49 feet was only about 28 feet short of that length. I've heard of shrinkage before, but it doesn't get THAT cold in Indonesia.

Quote from the article:

“I have no idea why the snake has shrunk,” said one keeper when asked about the discrepancy...

Bet that line's been used before.
