Sir Creep

Paradigm. And I love business speak as discussed elsewhere. Deliverable (work product), rightsizing, throughput, outsource, sourcing, efforting, footprint etc etc. Legalese too. Insofar, Heretofore, Henceforth, Thus, and I especially love ‘said’ for ‘the, as in ‘Sir Creep entered the DL website and left said website 5 minutes later.’ How does one not adore that stilted crap?

So sad Alzheimer’s robbed him of any recollection of his final round 66 at the U.S. Open at Oakland Hills CC.

Sorry to hear about your 4-legged friend, Ice.

Only took him 4 years after the crash to take care of business. So on top of a shite pilot, he was a procrastinator.

"He played his first and only NHL game with the New York Rangers on March 13, 1948 against the Montreal Canadiens at the Montreal Forum." He really shattered some barriers there. Can't count all the Chinese in the NHL since. OTOH, I'm sure in his one and only game he exposed the chink in the armor of the Montreal defence.

Not 1 not 2 not 3..... But THIRTEEN Kenyan politicians being treated for cancer in India! Nine MPs and four Senators are among thousands of Kenyans being treated for cancer in Indian hospitals, a legislator who was successfully treated for brain cancer says.

If only we accepted the Latin Grammys.............

So he has at least 3 years and probably more. Whoever he is.

It would be nice to hear someone say ‘post-coital’ once in a while.

Go to court to prove you’re alive......and lose.

I reiterate Tony Kleese the organic farmer can’t possibly be acceptable so what other Tony Kleese is there? TIA.

It’s a fair cop. For the record you DO have the power to simply post ‘so and so will not be accepted from this point’, my Liege. Was unuaware of WAG rule but now I am, many thanks. SC

What did Pink Panther say when he stepped on an ant?Dead Ant, Dead Ant....Dead Ant, Dead Ant, Dead Ant... Which quickly led me to this list of Ant jokes. Enjoy. SC

Nigerian Senator Ali Wakili slumped over and died while being rushed to hospital. The lawmaker representing Bauchi south senatorial district was 58. He was also the chairman of the senate committee on poverty. SC

Interesting the CBC (biggest news agency in Canuck land) has him dead at 62, everyone else says 63. SC

A package to be delivered to "a farm near situated up a long drive with cows opposite Cust pub or there abouts" actually made its way to its owners. It was enough to baffle the postie, but with a little help from small town New Zealanders, an unusually-addressed package reached its destination. Cust is a rural North Canterbury village, about 15 minutes west of Rangiora. It is home to about 450 people. Kay Forrester said the package sender was "almost blind" and couldn't remember their address or surname, so described from memory. SC

New York Times as well but I won't mention it cuz it'll make me look passive aggressive.

A few of you keep saying that about Mitzi Shore, I find nothing to support it (including yesterday), but I don't do Twitter so assuming it's totally Twitter-related research. My loss.

You truly are the biggest dolt on this site
