My brother's been dyslexic all his life, (or at least we noticed it when he was learning to read), and when he first read the bumper sticker that said, "Lysdexics of the world UNTIE," he saw it as "lydsexics." That's just the way I've seen it in my head since then, as sort of a tribute to him.

Strange... I always thought of it as "lysdexics".
Don't know why, though.

Down with the puppet dictionary dictatorship! Phonetic and Dyslexic Spellers unite! No more shal we be put down by these things called words. We shall rise above communications and regress back to the days of 'Ugh' and 'Gruh!' as viable forms of communication!

Unite my brethren! Unite and take back the .... um.... er.... Ugh!

And, in a moment of irony, Ben misspells "explanation," which only adds to his humiliation.

And it was still funny, Ben. I just would've changed the ingredients instead of adding that second bit.

I want peppers and tomatoes on my tombstone.

Note: interestingly you can't make the same post twice - even on two different threads, which decreases the humor of this post by forcing me to write an explination

Yiddish.... If you're forced constantly into the company of an if-only person (as in, "if only I had more money," or "if only I had the same lucky breaks as that guy"), here's an old Yiddish saying to get you through:

Az di bobe volt gehat beytsim volt zi geven mayn zeyde. (If my grandmother had balls she'd be my grandfather.)

Okay, so that was out of the clear blue sky. But it's the only Yiddish I know, and I was reminded of it recently, and Joe set me off so it's all his fault anyway.

I, too, have noticed that these threads seem to be degenerating into a sex-fest. I am pretty sure we can blame steff.

Not that I am complaining.

*sigh* ok, i'm alone for the rest of the week... i'm off to call all the pizza places in town and ask if popcorn is one of their toppings. or perhaps, slightly more constructively, i'll collect odd sayings at the hobo festivities. i won't be as good at it as eve, but imitation-flattery and all that. =)

I just noticed that myself. We have become oddly sexual, haven't we? Makes me wonder how many folks we're alienating--or titillating.

So...how about them pickles?

Here's a game to keep yourself amused at those sardine clubs with your 19-year old blondes, Monk.

Start using internet acronyms in spoken conversations, and tell your date that it's Yiddish.

I apologize if I convoluted characters. I don't much care at this point, but I know someone out there does. ...Didn't Dusty Bottoms shoot the Invisible Swordsman? I'd much rather be Ned Niederlander, although I'd want to be him with half the Effeminate Factor.

Tom, I think there was actually something on Entertainment Tonight (or some other show like that) about how the show's producers gave Anna Nicole all sorts of uppers before sending her out so they actually had something to tape. Otherwise, she just sat around the house and did nothing all day. My general take on the show---How Sad.

agreed. mayo (hellman's) is way better than miracle whip...

the anna nicole show was disturbing, yet i somehow couldn't turn away! i think she is on some serious meds during most of the show. her speech is slurred and she is staggering. she actually appears to be quite lucid for the scenes where she is sitting on her porch wearing a white tank top. kind of bizarre. it's like they drug her up and send her out on the road with a film crew!

hey, i was watching conan o'briend a while back and Charlie Sheen was on. he recommended the following recipe. according to charlie it's a "taste explosion". i haven't had the ingredients around the house to try it yet.

1 box of Life cereal
1 quart of haagen daz (or ben & jerry's) chocolate ice cream

Add layer of life cereal in big-ass cereal bowl. Add layer of chocolate ice cream.

Repeat until bowl is full. Wait 10-15 minutes. Enjoy!

lemme know if anyone tries this!

peace,
tom

Can't get out of it that easily, steff... there can be more than one Mistress! Besides, with tim all you have to do is write, and he's tormented.

Ah, Spider Robinson, how your books educated me.

1 college point - probably can find it on the "Friends" show website, but the answer's still correct. Vassar is so beautiful, but it's in the middle of P-Town... which suffered when IBM pulled about 80% of its staff out.
The song about about throwing stuff in the Hudson is apt, in that it's one of the most carcinogenic water sources in the country. Made me feel good about drinking the water there, it did. (It's so famous it's in-famous)
