Dallas County meeting turns racial.

"Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield, who is white, said it seemed that central collections 'has become a black hole' because paperwork reportedly has become lost in the office.

Commissioner John Wiley Price, who is black, interrupted him with a loud 'Excuse me!' He then corrected his colleague, saying the office has become a 'white hole.'"

And as I continue my posting splurge on the stupid and unbelievable, this may be the most stupidly unbelievable thing I have ever witnessed:

"Car Swing"

(Odds are the gene pool will be protected from these bright bulbs before too much longer...   "Niiiice!")

Man sentenced in slaying over roommate's foot odor.

"A Houston man was sentenced to 35 years in prison on Tuesday after prosecutors said he fatally stabbed his roommate during an argument about foot odor.

...

Police said another roommate, a woman, told investigators that she heard the men arguing about foot odor. She said she saw Serrano stab Quintanilla-Vaquero. Vinas said Quintanilla-Vaquero was stabbed 16 times."

I realize that I have a sick sense of humor, but I found that article to be down right funny.  +k thanks for the laugh!

My guess is that this is someplace in Texas (sorry, Ralph).

Is there some service in Oz-land that collects this stuff?  Or do you go out and find it on your own? 8)

Most balls lost:  Veek with over 20
Most Hamm's drunk - Not TDT who came with zero
Shortest drive - finsleft with a whiff and another whiff where the ball fell off the tee 6 inches.

Many years ago, when he was in his prime, Arnold Palmer was on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.  Johnny asked Arnold what his wife did to help him with his golf game.  Arnold replied that his wife "kissed his balls."  Without skipping a beat Johnny followed up with:  "I bet that makes your putter flutter."

Racquel Welch appeared many times on the Tonight Show.  She once brought her pet cat out on stage.  During the conversation Racquel asked Johnny is he'd like to pet her pussy.  Again, without skipping a beat, Johnny replied:  "I'd love to, if you move that cat."

I suspect the winners of categories 2 and 3 would be the same, especially given the description of the winning effort in category 3.

Congratulations, Fins.

Good story but apparently urban legend.

Same for Johnny, Racquel and her cat.

I even found that my favorite Groucho Marx quote is no quote at all.

I hate Snopes.

Shut up Frank, that was a practice swing.
I always remember the words of my golf instructor: "Swing really hard in case you hit it."
Here's one:

Not sure I've ever seen anyone line up his ball so close to his back foot for a drive.  Trying to deal with a duck hook?

Separated at Birth?



My 8 year old girl is in a 3 week children's theatre camp where they will ultimately perform "Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory."

She came home bummed out that she was cast as an Oompa Loompa. 

So, in costume she will be Separated at Birth with channel 11's Sven Sungaard.

An oompa loompa isn't a bad thing to be BDB. My middle son had his 1st role at age 4 as an oompa loompa. He auditioned for a non-speaking role because, of course, he couldn't read yet. They called him in with the part and handed him a script. Huh? So I read the OL parts into a tape recorder so he could listen to it over and over and over...
I still remember most of it, 15 years later.

Augustus Gloop, Augustus Gloop,
the great big greedy nincompoop.
How long can we allow this beast,
to gorge and guzzle, feed and feast
on everything he wanted to?
Great scot, gadzooks, that wouldn't do.....
