I know this whole "stamina" thing is tongue in cheek, but do any of you actually believe that athletic stamina translates into sexual stamina? If so, please stand up. Please stand up. Please stand up.

I used to have more of both than I do now.

from the cnn report on Bobby Brown's recent court appearance on battery charges --

""We're still together," Houston told reporters as the couple left the court house with their arms around each other.

As they drove away, the song "You Make Me Feel (Like a Natural Woman)" blared on the stereo as Houston sang along and Brown kissed her bruised cheek."


So natural women enjoy getting beat? I'm unclear on the message here...

I think you would be clearer if you weren't a battered woman. Perhaps you should seek therapy.

I get plenty of attention IRL. You, too, fail to understand my needs.

Alas I've already maxed out my $10 copay. Maybe after the New Year.

Oy veh... this subject again...

1. Dialect is not an indicator of wealth anymore. I know plenty of patch folks with thick accents and bank accounts far in excess of the (insert east coast landed gentry family here).

2. Poor people do tend to fixate on class. But so do rich people. The easiest way to spot the kid who's family lost all its old money is to look for the most outdated alleged badges of old money (slightly tattered clothes, out of style shoes, Lands End jackets, etc..). A lot of ex-rich jerk offs play the reverse snob gig to hold credibility. But more and more, its becoming accpetable to flaunt what you've got a bit. Ain't too many rich folks driving beat up station wagons anymore. That's a legend of the past.

3. One sign of not being rich is ordering the most obscure liquor in the bar. If you've got any cash, you can afford to drink, which means you drink a fair amount, which means you do it for effect, not to 'savor a fine single malt.' Well off folks seem to cut through the Starbucks/Microbrew/Single Malt/Cigar horseshit. The enjoy good shit, but don't have to impress you with how much of an afficianado they are, or how much they pay for their drinks.

4. Of course, if you're Ivanka Trump rich, that's different. You don't care about money do you ddo whatever you like with abandon. But I'm not talking about Ivanka Trump type freaks. I'm talking the average rich folks you know.

I am not reading this bc I have a headache but will take a liberty here and say Whiff.

If there are any tour de forces buried in these foul truths, will someone please tell me?

Concur. It's the combination of those legs like tree trunks, that rock hard ass, and the stamina that comes from sixty minutes of running up and down a field. That, and lacrosse players universally party like rock stars and choose not to wear underpants.

In my single days, nothing could turn my head faster than a USLA, STX or MILL sticker on a jeep wrangler.

The best sex (from a purely physical, rather than psychological or romantic, level) was with a lacrosse player I once knew. He made me understand what Milan Kundera meant when he wrote "There are things that can be accomplished only by violence. Physical love is unthinkable without violence."

Sigh.

You forget one thing. They always had great hair and wore levis perfectly. barely legal can confirm my love of the lax players. It truly amazes me how unbelievably alike we are. You should get me a job at your firm and I can move to your neck of the words, bust out a paigette and our girls can do the senior prom together while we reminisce about our glory days. Oh, and I would need a husband too if you know anyone.

He was apparently too busy chatting up a lady friend of mine last night and didn't notice.

New award and this is the first recipient. Congratulations. You have really outdone yourself with this not so cryptic, not so funny but definitely pointless post. Someone buy this man a Lestertini.

In that case, drop the athletes altogether and go with a wind musician.

So you did bang Lester. I didn't know you drank.

They've got agile lips and tongues that'll keep going for hours and amazing breath control.

Ah, nevermind.

Word from the wise.

Hooch is booze. I drnk it with gusto

Cooch is cooter, or cootie, in the parlance of Burger's times. Leagl drinks this with gusto, and Sebby apparetnly does while envisioing a salty roast beef sandwich. Ouch sebby! Don't bite! That movement you are bitcing about? That's the wife trying to hightail her cooter out of chomping distance.

Best paigow post ever. An instant classic and my new sig line.

I'm just having trouble deciding between "Ouch sebby! Don't bite!" and "That's the wife trying to hightail her cooter out of chomping distance."

Wow thanks. I didnt knwo people were putting posts in sig lines. Maybe i should stop ignorning them? I would like to put that mostly correct/foul truth post in my sig line as it is really the greatest post of all time. but not in the way sebby understands.

On the other hand, gay people like Musicals.

Well, the music geeks at Corporate Rock Central (aka Rolling Stone) have come out with their 500 greatest album list.

http://www.rollingstone.com/features...n.asp?pid=2164

Feel free to discuss or ignore entirely. I'll start.

Just off the top of my head, I'm surprised that Sgt. Pepper's is at number one. It isn't even the best Beatles album. Revolver should take the #1 slot. I've never understood why Sgt. Pepper received the hype it does, other than that it was the Beatles response to Pet Sounds. It's a great album, but frankly there are better albums out there.

I'll have to look at the list in more detail later.

Confidential to Paigow: The Dead first shows up around 250 or so, and it's the live album. American Beauty is the first studio album to show up at around 258. I'm sure you have issues with this.

Edited to add link -- Sorry.

I have no issues bc music is totally subjective and the fact that you cannot go two seconds without seeing yet another list of the greatest whatevers in a magazine or tv channel doesnt really enhance my faith in such things.

That said, I think the Dead are underated for studio albums. American Beauty is a great album (Candyman haunts me), and Working Man's Dead is killer. The Here Comes Sunshine on Wake of the Flood is one of the greatest tunes ever recorded and so is Alabama Getaway from Go to Heaven (an album widely derided as schlock on a new label as I recall). Very few records put out in recent years could hold a candle to any of this. Jerry Garcia was an absolute musical prodigy, as shown in the wide range of musical styles that the Dead covered, wrote and innovated. I don't think I would know anything about jug music (and I dont mean the Bob Seger tunes that the strippers rub themselves to at tittie bars) were it not for the Dead. And I dont think a RS defintitive list is gonna change my mind. Just remember when you were growing up and they had these countdowns of the Greatest Rock N Roll Song Ever and the number one tune was always Stairway to Heaven? Exactly.

I would agree with this, which is why these things are usually so much fun to discuss and dissect.

What's in the water you're drinking? You've been on fire today, and this is without a doubt, one of the best things you've ever posted.

You are incorrect. It was Freebird with Stairway to Heaven a close second. But thanks for playing.
