Not playing around

Ok. I love discourse as much as the next person. But despise strongly pointless inflammatory discourse. Pointless discourse I have no problem with. I don't care how many lols, rofls, omg, kit or whatsoever self pity we use to hide. Marking it offtopic isn't strong enough. Deletion is the keyword of this particular musing.

Random yes. Silly video? Check. Pictures of significant others? Affirmativo. Don't think it will pass? Type it and test the mods lol. NOT. This will most likely be skipped over and started anew when Grandpa Zabel gets back but for now Papa has taken off his belt. Play nicely on the playground and share the slide....

Surfing around Monster, I just saw a job ad for "Religious Opportunities" with the "US Navy" listed as the employer.

theremin thereminOG 2002 ·

hahaha. yeh, I remember seeing that Ad, ages ago. Pretty messed up. I guess some of the duties they have in store is to "bless the tanks" and pray with the troops. So messed up.

this reminds me of high school and army recruitor singled me out and asked me to enlist. i told him i was one of Jehovah's Witness and he was like "that's not going to be a problem, young man. we accomadate all dietary restrictions."

i almost laughed.

theremin thereminOG 2002 ·

hahaha. You shoulda said in reponse: "Oh... serve a lot of cannibal meals and bloody food stuffs, do ya? That's my dietary restrictions these days. At any rate, I only shoot to kill what I will be eating and since I'm not fond of human flesh sandwiches, I'm afraid I have to decline your incredibly attractive offer of people murderer for hire." That'd shut him up quick.

Where can I get a good price on the newest TomTom for Palm Treo 650? Besides eBay.

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001 ·

tigerdirect.com has good stuff

theremin thereminOG 2002 ·

Thanks. Looks like they only have the TomTom standalone units unfortunately. Thanks anyway.

No not rollerskates, they are different than that. They have wheels in the heels which only work when you lean back on the heels.

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004 ·

These got real popular after I was out of school.
I remember thinking how great these would've really come in handy when late for class.

They made such a big deal about kids rolling around and potentially injuring adults that they've been banned in local schools.

superhero superheroOG 2004 ·

dane cook uses these in Employee of the Month - he stole my idea

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002 ·

rollerskates?

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 ·

heeleys are shoes with wheels in the heel that you can roll around on

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002 ·

heeleys? what are heeleys?
I though lauren was posting under your name talking about high heels. i'm confused. unless you wear high heels.. thats cool. If you're into that sort of thing. good for you

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 ·

i totally believe stuff like this happens. my bro-in-laws mom is mixed in w/the mexican mafia and she would tell him what boxing matches to bet on...i guess she had the insight...its insane.

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004 ·

Is there any group that doesn't have a mafia? It might sound odd but, I always felt as though the only real mafia is The Mob...like The Family Business. The whole concept still fascinates me 'til this day.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

theres mafia for every race....russian, asian, irish, mexican, italian...tonz of em.

one thing NOT COOL about CA

Quake jolts San Francisco Bay area

SAN FRANCISCO - An earthquake jolted San Francisco Bay area residents awake early Friday, breaking glass and rattling nerves, although there were no immediate reports of injuries.
ADVERTISEMENT

The earthquake was recorded about 2 miles east of Oakland and had a preliminary magnitude of 4.2, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It could be felt for up to 10 seconds on both sides of the San Francisco Bay after striking shortly after 4:40 a.m.

More than 1,000 customers in the Oakland area lost power, a Pacific Gas & Electric Co. spokesman said. Crews were investigating the outages.

A dispatcher at the Oakland Police Department said police were getting calls about alarms going off. In Berkeley, an employee at a Safeway grocery store said two large windows broke but there were no injuries.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

we're SO due for one...we've been having small 2.0 ones in LA

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 ·

Yet another reason whe NJ rocks!

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

um ONE uncool thing out of a zillion cool things doesnt make NJ better...TSK TSK

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 ·

But it does, because that ONE uncool thing can destroy Cali and NJ will always be here :)

NJ will just kill everyone with the air. It's ranked one of the worst for air quality.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

HMMMM you got hurricanes? snow and w/snow there can be an avalanche?? lol

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 ·

HAHAHAHA Avalanches in NJ HAHAHAHA... Hurricanes?! not likely....

katiedid katiedidFounder ·

Well actually in the past three years we had two bad storms as a result of hurricanes in the Atlantic. But compared to earthquakes, mudslides, smog and the worst traffic in the county (per an AOL article), NJ rocks :) Plus Giacomo, WE'RE here.

But seriously, I can't hate California; I've never even been there. Maybe I'll live there someday...

katiedid katiedidFounder ·

haha I meant countRy

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

mudslides are only on the hills....after a torrential downpour and we dont get THAT much rain.

tesoro tesoroOG 2001 ·

yea, and the highest gas (what, about $4/gallon) and most outrageous real estate prices. Friends of ours just sold their little 3 bedroom house in the Bay area (and according to them a pretty "ghetto" area) for $400,000. No thanks.

I love CA to visit, but i'd shoot myself in the foot before moving there.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 · tesoro

oh yeah. its super expensive. our 4 bedroom house is worth over $700K. there are new condos being sold and they are starting at $450k and thats for 2 bedroom one bath...in an ok neighborhood

B
brothermanOG 2004 · socalgal

So basically CA is a joke to live in unless you are loaded.

theremin thereminOG 2002 · socalgal

I would love to sell real estate in Cali. I guess they canceled the show, "Million Dollar Listing," but when that show was on, I'd watch and just wish to be in Cali selling real estate instead of NJ. We got amazing homes in NJ. But it's exaggerated in Cali loads more. Plus, I think the real estate work ethic is much more fun and extravagant. And, least it was represented in that light. Plus, how fun would it be to sell real estate in Malibu, Hollywood, Beverly Hills? Very! ahhh, dreams.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 · theremin

seriously...its like you dont know who you'd be selling too..could be a celeb, entertainment figure...BUT right now the market is bad. but when its good...its REALLY good.

theremin thereminOG 2002 · socalgal

Exactly. And I rather sell in a "bad market" in Cali, than a "bad market" in NJ. hahaha

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 · theremin

yeah there are condo's even right here in LBI going for $399K - TINY condo's not even on the beach

so really Cali is not THAT far off

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 · juicymango

hey the girls are going more for the pin up style. lol

theremin thereminOG 2002 · juicymango

I was curious, I checked my MLS... This active listing of a lower level condo.. 3 bed/1 bath/880 sq ft - $470,000. Crazy. To Gina that sounds cheap tho, I'm sure. The prices at Seaside, Lavalette, Ortley Beach always amaze me. I've been inside this ultra tiny 1 bedroom condo (that is on a private beach, but still) last year, and it was listed for over $800,000. And it didn't even look special at all. You're paying for the private beach basically, but still... is Seaside worth it? And this place looked more like an apartment complex than condos.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 · theremin

that is def good for a 3 bedroom condo. but the important question....what city? and location...ya know.

theremin thereminOG 2002 · socalgal

That condo's (so-called) in Long Beach Island, NJ. Which I'm not keen on. Decent area, but I'd rather spend that money in another city if I had it. I'd never buy anything in NJ for that much actually.

gizmoEst. 2006 ·

It must not have been that bad. This is the first I've heard of it. I'm waiting for us to get hit with a 7+. Like you said, we are _so_ due.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

yeah seriously...but we're getting the smaller ones more so lately and thats what happened the last few times we've had a larger one.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002 ·

moving from OA2 to MIE2 - not fun

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

My sister and I are going to make a comic using the conversations we have because we crack ourselves up. Example from last night when Sammy was driving home on route 80 from the bookstudy:

Sammy: EAP!
Lindsay: Are you okay? -thinking she was choking-
S: There was a dead squirrel on the road and I don't like to hit those out of respect for the dead.
L: If the squirrel was trying to cross ten lanes of route 80, it deserves to die.
S: Maybe someone threw it there.
L: Dead or alive?
S: Alive?
L: Why would someone do that?

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004 ·

You guys crack me up to! We gotta get together again =D
What book study are you in is Ahler's still there??? The man is just not right lol!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Haha no we're with the Chesleys now, they changed everything up on us.

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 ·

This is Coco. I call her COCOPUFF. She is a dog that I walk when her owners go away. She's so crazy looking right!??!?! She totally has the crazy eye.

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004 ·

Awww it's cute it add character. I want a little dog sooooo bad but, most developments in the area aren't pet friendly. So depending on where I end up I'll see whether or not I can get a furry friend :)

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 ·

and this is Vegas and Shelby. Shelby is a boxer, and Vegas is.. boston terrier? i think? Super cute. I walk them twice a week but this week their owners had off and I didn't get to see them. I miss themmmm
