I mean, every time one of the dodgy detectors failed the test, presumably the evidence was destroyed along with the operator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lewd_Squirrel 331 Posted June 8, 2010 US actress Rue McClanahan, star of TV show The Golden Girls, has died following a stroke at the age of 76, her manager has announced. Neat, that makes it 4 for me this year, so far. . :/ & isn't weird how, this year, last year, & the year before that, the Golden Girls have slowly been dying? O.O next year doesn't look too good for Betty White. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godot 149 Posted June 8, 2010 'Experts' in bomb disposal. You shouldn't laugh, but..............this scam borders on genius. I mean, every time one of the dodgy detectors failed the test, presumably the evidence was destroyed along with the operator. In so doing it would demonstrate irrefutably that the bomb had been detected, i.e. they're doing their job. It doesn't say they're bomb disablers. I move no case to answer m'lud.

maryportfuncity 10,684 Posted June 11, 2010 With all the focus on Derrick Bird we didn't properly mark the fact that Garry Purdham was a decent rugby league player, and well respected for his talents. Funeral was quite an event. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geronimo 3 Posted June 15, 2010 Jimmy Dean of sausage fame has died at 81. PLEASE tell me someone got a DDP hit from him! Jimmy Dean's Lyrics to Big John: (Big John, Big John) Ev'ry mornin' at the mine you could see him arrive He stood six foot six and weighed two forty five Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip And everybody knew ya didn't give no lip to Big John. (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) Nobody seemed to know where John called home He just drifted into town and stayed all alone He didn't say much, kinda quiet and shy And if you spoke at all, you just said "Hi" to Big John. Somebody said he came from New Orleans Where he got in a fight over a Cajun Queen And a crashin' blow from a huge right hand Sent a Loosiana fellow to the Promised Land-Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) Then came the day at the bottom of the mine When a timber cracked and men started cryin' Miners were prayin' and hearts beat fast And everybody thought that they'd breathed their last-'cept John Through the dust and the smoke of this man-made hell Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well Grabbed a saggin' timber, gave out with a groan And like a giant oak tree he just stood there alone-Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) And with all of his strength he gave a mighty shove Then a miner yelled out "There's a light up above!" And twenty men scrambled from a would-be grave Now there's only one left down there to save-Big John With jacks and timbers they started back down Then came that rumble way down in the ground And then smoke and gas belched out of that mine Everybody knew it was the end of the line for Big John (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) Now they never reopened that worthless pit They just placed a marble stand in front of it These few words are written on that stand At the bottem of this mine lies one hell of a man big john (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) (Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
