  • Up Front: What Sixteen Is,

    That's a downside, surely?

    That was from my point of view - also why I put "can" into italics, "can" don't mean "will".

    I just want it made absolutely clear that no artisans were minced in the making of these sausages.

    BTW - it strikes me that the biggest difference between us (then) and them (now) and feel free to disagree with me, is the whole txting thing.

    Teens are now in constant contact with each other, day & night, with all that entails - comfort, friendship, bullying & threats. The upside is that they can be in constant contact with their parents too.

    I'm not sure if the pros outweigh the cons.

  • Up Front: What Sixteen Is,

    by the time you're parenting teenagers you can no longer remember what it's like to be a teenager

    I don't know about that, but I think you don't necessarily know any better how to deal with things.

    Would a farmers' market on Saturdays do?

    The bacon sandwiches: A higher form of food. OMG. Go there for breakfast when you arrive, take another one with you for lunch when you leve.

    Woo - that got my attention.

    For real? Who knew? I was expecting fruit & veg & home made jam. Will have to go take a look at the local then. Soon.

    Nice -- then again, I regard Chapman Tripp as a pustular mass filled with over-paid blood-sucking parasites

    Trots the old lawyer joke out once more:

    Q: Why are researchers performing experiments on lawyers these days?

    A: Because there are some things that rats just will not do.

    Perhaps in a few years we'll be reduced to 'Which Presidential Candidate would you like to watch doing your wife?"

    Or your dog? (Say if it had lipstick on).

    And on that note....

    Tooling down the highway doing 79

    I'm a twin pipe papa and I'm feelin' fine

    Hey man, dig that was that a red stop sign-

    (scrreeech-BANG!!tinkle)

    Transfusion, transfusion

    I'm just a solid mess of contusions

    Never never never gonna speed again

    Slip the blood to me, Bud



    I jump in my rod about a quarter to nine

    I gotta make a date with that chick of mine

    I cross the center line, man, you gotta make time-

    (scrreeech-BANG!!tinkle)

    Transfusion, transfusion

    Oh man, I got the cotton pickin' convolutions

    Never never never gonna speed again

    Shoot the juice to me, Bruce



    My foot's on the throttle and it's made of lead

    But I'm a fast ridding daddy with a real cool head

    I'ma gonna pass a truck on the hill ahead-

    (scrreeech-BANG!!tinkle)

    Transfusion, transfusion

    My red corpsuckles (sic) are in mass confusion

    Never never never gonna speed again

    Pass the crimson to me, Jimson



    I took a little drink and I'm feelin' right

    I can fly right over everything everything in sight

    There's a slow poking cat I'm gonna pass him on the right-

    (scrreeech-BANG!!tinkle)

    Transfusion, transfusion

    I'm a real gone paleface and that's no illusion

    I'ma never never never gonna speed again

    Pass the claret to me, Barrett



    A rollin' down the mountain on a rainy day

    Oh, when you see me coming, better start to pray

    I'ma cuttin' up the road and I'm the boss all the way-

    (scrreeech-BANG!!tinkle)

    Transfusion, transfusion

    Oh, doc pardon me for this crazy intrusion

    I'm never never never gonna speed again

    Pump the fluid in me, Louie



    I'm burning up the highway early this morn

    I'm passing everybody, oh, nothing but corn

    Man, outta my way, I don't drive with my horn-

    (scrreeech-BANG!!tinkle)

    Transfusion, transfusion

    Oh, nurse, I'm gonna make a new resolution

    I'm never never never gonna speed again

    Put a gallon in me, Alan



    Oh, barnyard drivers are found in two classes

    Line crowding hogs and speeding jackasses

    So remember to slow down today

    Hey, daddy-o
