Gravity is awesome....and there's a whole lot of it around when you've had too much to drink

Isn't it amazing how alcohol affects the gravitational vortex? Simply fascinating.

Also good news: Our a/c works fantastically. In fact, I don't even know how hot it is outside! I'll know in approximately an hour and 26 minutes when I go out to my black SUV, though.

What's so great about gravity? I'd get where I needed to be a lot faster if I could fly.

But flying wouldn't be so fun when you're burning up in the atmosphere and being torn to shreds by the sheer velocity of the planet.

Well, yeah, there's that but that's why you fly low.

Not to nitpick or anything.... but I will anyway.... how do you suppose you'll fly low if there's no gravity?

Well if you can fly then presumably you can fly in whatever direction you wish -- including down.

I bought two 1.75 quarts of Breyers ice cream at a "Buy one, get one free" sale!! Saved $5.99!!!

That's good news for ice cream fans! One Coffee and one French Vanilla.

If you mixed them, would it be "Cappucino" or "Latte?" flavor? Or would it still just be Coffee flavor mixed with French Vanilla flavor? These are the types of questions I often ponder...

“Hey buddy, what’s the matter?”, one of the two atoms said to their buddy. “You been reading the CivDeb page of TSG?”

Their buddy replied, “Oh woe is me, woe is me. The end is near; this is just terrible. Yeah, I saw those threads, but that’s the good news. The bad news is that I’ve lost an electron.”

The two atoms gasped in horror. “Are you sure?”, they asked him.

“Yes, I’m positive.”
bump... I guess the joke bombed?

I'm absolutely impressed, however.
