Ever notice how irons have a setting for permanent press? I don't get it.

Everywhere is within walking distance if you have the time.

For my birthday I got a humidifier and a de-humidifier... I put them in the same room and let them fight it out.

George is a radio announcer, and when he walks under a bridge... you can't hear him talk.

Hermits have no peer pressure.

How young can you die of old age?

Sorry about the Rush Radio link

I probably could have found another link/quote somewhere else, but I didn't want him to be able to say "The Libruls are afraid to even admit they read my website, brr bar bur..." ;)

McCrory running?
