    Yeah, same here. I recollect that ads would have their own history, coming in waves, but those times are long gone. Now I am utterly acknowledgeable in advertisements. What a shame


    That said, why do you only have two PMs, Reverend Joe ? Do you delete them? Or do you not receive many? I need to send you one ASAP .

    Cackle?

    I guffaw, chuckle, laugh, snort, snicker, and have been known to giggle like a little girl, but I do not cackle.

    Maybe the ads vary for different countries or something, because I only ever get ads for online games and sometimes holiday deals.
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    Well, I haven't seen it since, so no worries, all.

    Maybe I made them realize their "mistake".

    Beirut, do you fit all the requirements in that song?

    suspenders and a bra in a bar?

    All I know is I'm gonna be careful in the bars if I ever go to Canada.
    Also, he's talking about a British Columbian lumberjack, despite the mounties!

    Hey Beirut, since you're a pro, I wonder if you could critique my work here. Wife says "disaster," I say "overreaction."

    First off - never let the wife watch (especially film). Prospective girlfriends, other guy's wives, or any other woman you want to bed, fine, but never your own wife. It's a curse from the Gods.

    Second - destroy the whole house, not part of it. Your deductible will kill any fun you might have had with the insurance money on a claim that small.

    Third, your saw looked (and sounded) a bit small for the job. A proper sized saw for the job allows better control of your cuts.

    Fourth - hard to tell from the video, but your notch looked too deep. You lose a lot of control over the drop that way.

    Fifth - hire pros.

    Sixth - you have snow?

    Seventh - sell your saws and buy beer.

    Eighth - how come you wife sounds like my grandmother? Is your wife my grandmother? Grampa, is that you?

    Uh, yeah, sure that video was of me. What, do you think I would just post some hilarious video that I found and claim it was mine to provoke our resident lumberjack? How dare I! I mean, how could I possibly do that?

    No, that video was taken this morning. We, uh, had a late, uh, snow.

    Aw, man, why does he have to choose between saws and beer? Why not both at once? Who knows what wonders will arise from such a beautiful combination?

    Edit: I tried to find a funny chainsaw sculpture but apparently chainsaw sculptors have no sense of humor (ooh, you made a mermaid... fascinating.)

    Edit 2: good enough.
