    dogs are only okay.

    favorite edited movie lines vol. "it smell like bacon in this muthalover..."

    I think NT needs a little levity right now. ...so I'm watching a broadcast of "Friday" in which Smokey informs Craig that he had "to be a stupid young brotha to get fired on his day off." I lost many, many life points in the ensuing hilarity. here's a little of what I'm talking about: am I...

    NT, what have you gotten away with?

    --DISCLAIMER: I am not the feds, feel free to tweak names and circumstances where necessary to protect the guilty.-- I'm no angel. I suspect few of us are. in fact, I believe the world is heavily slanted against the indiscriminately truthful and altruistic. with this in mind, this thread...
