Due to my advancing age (only coming on 40, but it's been a hard 40), I can only drink around 1.5 before needing to "See a man about a horse". Unfortunately, also due to my age, when I get there, I often find that I can't actually fufill the purpose of my visit. Damned if I do, damned if I...

Re: wooo

.. I'm kinda goofing off at work right now... Unless you are a white guy in white shirt, tie, bidness suit and some of those constipated 10-lb. wing-tip shoes, you are probably underpaid and are therefore entitled to as much goofing off as you can scrounge. (Same goes for office supplies and loose ...

P.S., Paul, have you ever used tinyurl.com? It keeps you from having to post incredibly long URLs that keep the forum fro...

It's been a long time coming

Well, three years ago, year-round bouts of allergies destroyed my breath control and my ability to play my much-beloved whistles.
