I wish I could take credit for thinking of Gilbert and Sullivan, but I was actually refering to "The Princess Bride". Nice recall, though!

You're assuming yaah has even seen this classic movie. yaah has lived quite a deprived childhood 😉 I was surprised when I found out that he's even seen one of the Monty Python flicks.

Is anyone else amazed by the fact that Robin Wright married Sean Penn?

Inconceivable. What I wouldn't give right now for a Holocaust cloak.

Blasphemy!
I assumed that all witty people w/ a sense of humor knew and loved Monty Python Movies.
It took me so long to reply 'cause I passed out in shock when I read that Yaah hasn't seen any of them. I just can't imagine not knowing the song "always look on the bright side of life".
I'm going to go cry for Yaah now.
 
You can't be serious. I have seen all the Monty Python movies, and in fact have the entire Flying Circus on DVD. So I think I'm probably safe.

(sniffles and wipes eyes)
Oh thank god.
 
yaah, did you go to that pathetic michigan game today? i was very disappointed...fortunately, seeing iowa getting spanked and ohio state losing made me feel a little bit better.

i remember last year around this time, i had predicted that michigan would lose 5 games last year...my prediction was wrong.

however, after observing today's ludicrous performance, i think michigan will lose 5 games this year. they will lose to wisconsin, minnesota, iowa, and ohio state.

penn state s gonna spank yo ass....
 
Definitely a bad day for the Big 10. I couldn't believe Iowa got blown out so badly.

At least my beloved Huskers won. 😍

That was a brutally bad game. The Michigan offense looked like a high school team. Notre Dame didn't play that well offensively either, except on their first series, and they tried to give the game back with a few really untimely fumbles (one of which was overturned by replay). Despite their suckitude, michigan had a chance to tie, had the ball with 2+ minutes left, and went four and out, culminating in a 4th and 15 where they tried a 5 yard out to the tight end who was covered by 3 guys. 🙄 A lot of the time I think the Michigan coaching staff calls plays regardless of the game situation.

It was the worst I have seen them play in person since a Rose Bowl against UW about 10-15 years ago. They were flat, they looked unprepared, they were uninspired, and they have no one to blame but themselves.

nah, michigan's not that bad.

Just showing some team spirit that 's all.....

I'm called Little Buttercup — dear Little Buttercup,
Though I could never tell why,
But still I'm called Buttercup — poor little Buttercup,
Sweet Little Buttercup I!

I've treacle and toffee, I've tea and I've coffee,
Soft tommy and succulent chops;
I've chickens and conies, and pretty polonies,
And excellent peppermint drops.
When yaah gets into these moods I always imagine him prancing along in green baggy pants, a flowered top hat and a striped umbrella in hand, singing at the top of his voice - a little hop, skip and jump!

But having actually met yaah, I could not think of anyone less likely to "prance" 😀

I've snuff and tobaccy, and excellent jacky,

I've ribbons and laces to set off the faces
Of pretty young sweethearts and wives.

Then buy of your Buttercup — dear Little Buttercup;
Sailors should never be shy;
So, buy of your Buttercup — poor Little Buttercup;
Come, of your Buttercup buy!

what in the... 😱

Guys seem to, overwhelmingly.

There are passages from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince which have me laughing fit to die, but I don't particularly "luuuurrrrve" the Monty Python series. Most of the Holy Grail has me going "What the - !?"

Well, except for...

MONKS: [chanting]
Pie Iesu domine, dona eis requiem.
[BONK!]
Pie Iesu domine,...
[BONK!]
...dona eis requiem.
[BONK!]
Pie Iesu domine,...

oh god, don't get me started on the conservative playcalling by lloyd carr. it seems like michigan's plays are so predictable.

1st down - run the ball for 2-3 yards.
2nd down - play action pass --> incompletion
3rd down - some assclown jumps early for a false start penalty
repeat 3rd down and long - hey, let's do a screen play!
4th down and 8 - punt.
 
Yeah, at one point I just started yelling out plays. Hey, let's try a screen play here! etc and more often than not was correct. They tried one end around which gained about 45 yards, and I think they only really tried one or two deep passes, and one of them was very close to a completion.

On the other side was Charlie Weis who started the game in a 4 wideout, one back set and promptly went 80 yards for a TD. Even when UM was in 3rd and long they still do a double tight end, two back set and send one guy deep.
 
....with the immunizations nurse...

"So you're here because of your immunizations status?"
Yup. They didn't accept the 2nd date because it was before my first birthday.
"Oh. Well then let's do a titre, that'll spare you a needle."
We've actually run into this situation in the past - this is what is going to happen. We'll do the titre, and since I've had the shots before, it's going to come back equivocal or something. And then you'll have to call me back in anyway and give me the shot. So can you just give me the shot?

...

"This is going to sting a little. Ever had a bee-sting?"
No.
"Or a burn? Ever burn yourself on the stove?"
*Ow.* No. But I've had shots before.

You've never had a bee sting? Cripes, I've had like 5 and I consider myself lucky.
That depends on your definition of a bee.
Plus, there is more of you than me 😉

Well okay. My history-giving skills fall out the window under stress.

I'm almost positive I've stepped on a bee once. However as I did not have my glasses on at the time (it was on getting out of a swimming pool) I cannot say for sure.

In the eye?? What happened? Did it heal by itself or did you have to see an ophth?

Never had a bee sting .....touch wood!

Never had a wasp sting......touch wood!

Never saw a live snake.......thank god! (Can't get myself to see TV programs on snakes either)

I was pretty little, so I don't remember very well, but I know I had to go to an opthalmologist a few times. I couldn't see out of that eye for quite some time, but it healed up all fine. 👍

When I was 3 I got my first bee sting. There was a bee trying to sting me, so I stomped on it to kill it. I was barefoot. Oops. 😳

The foot is an awful place to be stung.
 
A bee once stung my dingus. It was swollen shut, my sphincter said "no mas", and I couldn't **** for weeks.
 
Hey Andy - why are you up at 4:10 AM?

How is surg path going - as painful as you expected?

I'm not even going to ask how the bee got access to your dingus. 😛

That must have been interesting. Please share the story. It can't be a good as sh*tting in a fountain though.
 
I have no terrible stories like those - worst I had was a hornet stinging the back of my knee when i sat down on a wooden bench that happened to have a small hornet's nest hidden from view. I was about 7 at the time, and it took me awhile to be able to sit on a wooden bench without examining it first.

I was up at 5 am this morning, not 4 am. I got slammed on surgicals so I had to get into work at 6 am to cut things in.

Like I said, "Bring the pain!" Well, the pain's been broughten. I worked for 15 hours today, partly because I saw some new and interesting specimens that I'm not accustomed to grossing in. Fortunately, I was able to leave around 9 pm today and drink massive amounts of alcohol before coming home.

There was a yellow jacket on the water fountain who was clearly unhappy that was I unloading an S-bomb on the fountain.

I love getting in at 6am. Isn't it great? No one around, and everyone rolls in at 7:30 or whatever with bed head or wet head and glassy eyes and complaining and you're like, "I've been here for almost two hours, so you better stop being a whiny bitch!"

I love coming back after dinner at like 10pm. Isn't it great? No one around and you can play whatever music you want as loud as you want.

😛

I had sushi for breakfast this morning. It was the best breakfast I've had in a long while.
