Speed Racer - huge crush on Racer X

Gadgets:
Mr. Microphone - "hey good lookin' we'll be back for you later."

Any K-Tel record.

Has anyone mentioned "Operation"? What a great game. Although it's a gateway game to strip poker.

Rubiks cubes? I was the first one in my class to solve it. (I also had thick glasses, a bad haircut and sucked my thumb until Grade 5, so little things like solving rubiks cubes ahead of the other nerds in my class meant a lot to me)

(I have not read many of the posts, so these things might already be mentioned - if so, forgive me)

Guys who say this aren't getting blown often enough.

ps; I'm going out for a veggie burrito, can I get anyone anything?

There's a stage at which the legal position is so dire that the returns on wordsmithing drop significantly. I'm sure you remember the Austin case, no? I could've written that thing in crayon and still won in the closing argument, had you not shown up to court in a fucking racing suit.

And we've come to the conclusion that $10,000 PenskeBucks buys just as much as $1million PenskeBucks.

(OK -- a threesome on the FB, perhaps, but not much more than that.)

A guy who says this is a gay, although he may not know it yet.

And to think that the phrase "thong around your feet" triggered that.

You think I PM exclusively with you?

It seems like a good time to mention that the first time I remember hearing this was from a guy I was dating in college.

But I think I've read people saying this on the FB as well (old board? new board? don't remember)

Not at all. Actually, Wonk was just trying to impress me by passing along some of his better lines, and I thought I saw the connection here.

If that's true, I hope the Board will remind me not to invite either you or Wonk to my wedding to Jack.

Wasn't there a board game that involved a plastic door that had different guys behind it? Something about dating. I coveted it, but my out-of-town cousins had it, we didn't -- hence the fuzzy memory on the name of the game.

Tony Parker is sick and missed the shoot-around. So, Speedy Claxton may be starting at point.

Quote from Pop: "I hope he just ate something bad," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said of Parker. "He probably ate some American food instead of French food and it screwed up his system."

And, the kid from Dallas (an 8th grader at St. Mark's) won the spelling bee.

Edited to add detail.

Kind of sounds like the reality series "Guy Meets Guy", the home game... Plastic closet door, perchance?? NTTAWWT.

Ha, no, but that would be a good recreation -- we were the girls dating the guys. There was a jock-type, a nerd, a rich guy, etc. etc.

We had a record high 109 yesterday, but it reached 115 in our neighborhood. Well into the "fucking hot" range (>107). 100 isn't even "damn hot" (>102). Just hot.

But it's a dry heat.
