  1. Sheesh! You know nothing about me! I don't want beer with alphalfa and wheatgrass. I want beer with oatmeal, soy, and fiber! You're just a whore who'll drink anything, so you just shut you mouth! I should start a soy beer company! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  2. But you call Miller Lite beer???? I am very confused. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  3. You are a hottie! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  4. That keycard is gone! It's somewhere on it's way to the sewage treatment plant! I don't think it will work after that! I don't know how I could accomplish that. Should I throw a beer in there and see if he chases after it? This is rough. I have to borrow other people's keycards to go anywhere, and no one trusts me with their keycard right now! People are still laughing at me. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  5. And, never try to take my beer....otherwise, I may try to flush you down the toilet next! You, too, Smooth! But, the weather is going to suck, and I'm going to mope. The word around the office is that they're going to buy me a wallet. I still don't have a new keycard. I wonder if they're busy putting an inflatable thing around my new one?

  6. and all of my coworkers. They all think it's pretty funny, but the joke's on them. I decided to not tell them which toilet it fell into. If they clog it up and get a keycard as a surprise, it's not my fault! (That'll teach them to laugh at me!) My boss laughed (at me) and referred me to the lady who hands out keycards. I told her my sob story, she laughed (at me), and she told me she'd get me a new one. I don't have to pay for the new one given the circumstances (I didn't lose it. I know where it's at.) That made me laugh! It all moved by in slow-motion. I felt the clip come loose. I saw the keycard go straight for the center of the already flushing toilet. I saw it float around in there for awhile. Nobody here trusts me with anything now, since they think I'll flush it down a toilet. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  7. that I flushed my keycard down the toilet on accident, and I need a new one now? Right after I flushed, the clip came off my pants, and there went my keycard swirling its way down the drain. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  8. I'm just upset you don't read everything I write on here There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  9. Beat ya to it! http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=641148;search_string=pirate%27s;#641148 There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  10. I never padded my jump numbers. If you can't fly like you have X amount of jumps, then you'll just look slow and behind the curve. If you can fly like you have X amount of jumps but have significantly less, than you'll impress everyone. Padding jump numbers to get ratings is silly. You can get that rating later, and I never understand why people rush to do things in the first place. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  11. I can agree with that. Also, if you are in a better physical condition, you'll probably recover faster, too. However, you started this thread by saying that you've noticed cutaways due to hard pulls, and that you think that strength in one's arms could alleviate this problem. Basically, you're saying that the 100 pound girl who is in great shape is in danger because she doesn't have as much arm strength. The fact is, she shouldn't need that much arm strength to pull. (Try once, try twice, then go through your emergency procedures. No one ever says, "Try once. Your second time keep pulling at it for awhile, becuase your arm strength should help you.") I'll agree that if you eat right and exercise, you'll do better in every aspect of life. You won't get fatigued as easily. If you started this thread by saying, "I noticed that a lot of people have cutaways after using packers. If you get in shape, you won't be so worn down after packing 7 times in a day, I may have been slightly more inclined to agree with you. I won't go to a gym and do bicep curls thinking it's ever going to help me in case of a hard pull. I go to a rigger and talk to them about how to prevent a hard pull.

  12. I'm really good at being an aunt. I love spoiling my nephews, and I love not being the one having to quiet them down! My nephew Robby did the cutest thing tonight. He likes it when people pretend to sleep. So, he handed me a pillow, I laid down on his bed, I pretended to snore, he handed me his small toy trucks, a book, and a stuffed bear, he rubbed my knee, and then he went out in the living room and told my brother, "Shhhh! V!!!! Ny ny!"
  13. I love Chicago! I'll never leave! Well, I'll leave for the winters once I'm rich enough to do so. Like Smooth said, you can never get enough of the free stuff to do around here! That's my kind of town! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  14. God my workout routine is half-assed.... I run 3 miles 3-4 times a week. I will attempt to lift weights 2 times a week. I'll do all muscle groups. I usually do 2 sets, 8-15 reps (second set always has less reps!) Yeah, it's half-assed. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  15. Yup! We just learned that on the boat tour a few weeks ago (although, I had heard it a few years ago as well.) They also talked about the origins of the nickname "Second City." We also learned how Lincoln became president! One more tip...please don't call it "Chi Town" while in Chicago! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  16. Not do to the wind...it originated from people here talking too much! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  17. Given today's events, I would have to say that I'm really bad at keeping secrets (unless they're serious.) There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  18. Unless it's sexual favors and you were just looking for any answer, not exactly... The nickname "Second City" refers to Chicago's population: it is the second largest city in the U.S. That's the most popular theory, but there are others (some which make "more sense.") Another theory behind the nickname is that we were always second in architecture to New York. Also, the nickname has been around longer than 50 years (you could ask my grandpa!)

  19. Oh! And ding ding ding! We have a winner! I know what you won! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  20. Hey...I've traveled a bit. It's a great "all around" city. You won't find the best food (for me, that was Boston), scenery, theatre (although, the ballets here are some of the best I've ever seen..but I've never been to Russia.), etc. But, you won't find too many places that rank pretty high in all aspects.

  21. I got famous for being the only kid to ever cry during the taping of the Bozo Show. (Okay, I'm not the only kid to ever cry during it...) There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  22. Sigh....don't use your knowledge from a boat tour for evil! Yes, (not that I keep up with sports too much) but another football team tried to recreate the magic that was the Superbowl Shuffle. You are more than a country bumpkin. You're a country bumpkin who has obviously been to a big city with tall scary buildings if you know that jingle. It doesn't?

  23. I have to understand it! If I wake up late, miss my train, have to drive in, and the Dan Ryan is 35 mins from 95th to the circle, I'm taking the Skyway! If you have the ability to block out what you don't need finely tuned, traffic reports are helpful. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  24. Sigh...I wish I could do 85 on the Dan Ryan....stupid traffic. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
  25. Yes, three times this summer I pointed to that really tall, black building and said, "That's the Sears Tower." Also, for people coming into Chicago to do the touristy thing...take public transportation! Only if their car is worth more than yours! Your damn right!
