My grandfather retired from the Navy, at one point earning a Silver Star at Guadalcanal during one of several wartime deployments. He was my hero, both for his service to his country and for the family he raised during that stretch. And while not a veteran, I have to be thankful also for my grandmother, who raised all those kids, frequently alone, while moving from post to post and even overseas. While the families our service members leave at home may not exactly be in harm's way, the support work they do deserves recognition. My uncle served in the USN for 8 years. He later died of mesothelioma, most likely contracted as a result of his work constructing the USS Denver. While he and I didn't always see eye to eye, there were several times during my tour on the Denver that I was glad he'd done his job well. While the veterans in my family get special recognition in my heart, my thanks go to all veterans, including those here who are currently serving and who have served in the past. Your sacrifices are appreciated. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Sunday there should be some Nascar . . . Fuck Sunday, the birthday wishes were today and there was a race on the Speed channel about an hour ago! I don't suppose you've seen how she dressed for our Halloween party... Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Hey, share the wealth, brutha. I'm getting tired of all the fat dudes. All ya gotta do is come do tandems with me a couple weekends a summer. I'll share the little ones with ya and already told ya the deal on >190 lbs. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Because my penis is only average size. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I don't think I gawk per say, but Erin and I point hot chicks out to each other, and when she's assigning tandems, she usually gives the spinner types to me. She rocks!

Wow...it's Steak and Blowjob Day again already? Wouldn't THAT be nice! What's this "wouldn't" business? It IS nice! 50% down, and tonight I think we'll go with the Stubb's Texas Steakhouse marinade. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Her response to the grin I've been wearing ever since was an accusation that after this I'm going to start posting my own fake birthday threads. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Thank you for the fantastic birthday blowjob Nick, it was great!

Absolutely. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

OK, forget the cream, sugar, and vanilla. Instead, using hydrogenated lecithin as a surfactant, whip an emulsion of buttermilk and cod liver oil. That should be sufficiently complicated and have just the beautiful texture you're looking for. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Several years ago, 4 of us local skydivers competed in local pool league tournaments during the winter. One such evening, after the beer had begun flowing at a somewhat alarming rate, I told this joke and one of our guys got his mouth out in front of his brain by piping up "Hey, I like the mayonnaise!" His girlfriend who would soon become his wife, mother of his third child, and ex-wife, in that order, confirmed...he like to eat at the Y after contaminating the environment. Not a particularly wise thing to admit in front of skydivers, and yes, we still give him shit about it whenever the opportunity arises. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

"Access denied" For some reason, my work won't let me get to that page. What's the gist of it? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Ummm...Clint....I know for a fact that you've actually seen J. That motherfucker has gotta be coming up on a decade since he was eligible to join POPS! (and when was the last time he "parachuted "anyhow?!) Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Here's hope that you get to spend your evening with a redheaded stripper from Alabama who will leave when you're done with her and never contact you again. Happy birthday! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

That worked for me when I was younger, but now I can't seem to finish it. I can get all the way to my brain, but then get the rapid, random thoughts thing going. I pieced together an incredibly comfortable bed set-up though, and it, combined with the self-hypnosis method, can make a night of no sleep comfortable and reasonably restful even when nothing will put me to sleep. If I'm up too late to take an ambien, at least I know I can lay there comfortably. Quality pillow-top mattress covered with a novaform pad, covered with down pad, covered with 1200 TC sheets, down pillows, and a nice comforter....comfy shit! Blues, Dave We have a $2000 mattress 1000ct sheets the whole nine yards. It does help but when you have stress, the brain has a weird way of waking you up. You know some of the shit i have dealt with dave. No matter what you do, medication is sometimes the answer. Yeah, I wasn't saying the comfortable bedding will turn the brain off, I was just saying that spending a night awake in a very comfortable environment is much more restful than spending a night awake in something less comfortable. Relaxation drills/self hypnosis help too. It ain't sleep, but it's about as close as you can get without sleeping. I can dream in that state while still being awake, and that seems to really help.

I've posted this one before... Sooo...little Johnny goes to his dad one day and asks, "Dad, what does a vagina look like?" His father is taken aback, as he wasn't prepared for questions of this nature so early in Johnny's development. He thinks for a moment, then replies, "Uh, I suppose that depends, son. Er, are you talking about before a woman has intercourse or after?" Johnny doesn't get the question of course, so he says, "Well, before, I guess." His dad exhales, smiles, and responds, "Have you ever seen a beautiful rose, first thing in the morning, with the petals all splayed out perfectly, and tiny drops of dew on them? That's what a vagina looks like." Johnny isn't particularly satisfied with this metaphor, so he continues his line of questioning, "Well, that's all fine, I suppose, but then what does it look like after she has intercourse?" His dad was fearing this would happen...he takes a deep breath, exhales, then responds, "Have you ever seen a bulldog eat mayonnaise?" Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

Really? I have no drowsiness 8-9 hours later. What kicks my ass is Nyquil...that shit fucks me up till the NEXT night. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I use Ambien. Everyone talks about building a resistance and growing dependent on ever increasing doses, but a half a pill a night is usually good enough for me and has been for a couple of years. I'll occasionally take a whole pill if I have a full 8 hours available and feel like splurging (happens maybe once a month). If this is a short-term problem (the crunch at work), I wouldn't worry too much about addiction. If it's a chronic state, keep the concern in the back of your mind and watch your habits. The thing is our problems differ. I can't shut my brain off to get to sleep, but once I'm asleep, I generally stay that way. You on the other hand can go to sleep but not stay there, so you'd need something with more of a delayed/timed release. I'm not sure that such products are made in a form amenable to reducing your own dose. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

It depends. Generally I'll vote my preferred candidate, even though it may be a throwaway. However, in a particularly tight race with one candidate substantially less abhorrent than another, I'll use my vote to try to minimize the damage. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

That's one thing he's saying. Another thing he's saying is that he introduced legislation that would have the government define life as beginning at conception. These two statements are at odds with each other, as the latter is not staying out of it and leaving it up to the states. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
