BLOEMFONTEIN, South Africa (AP) - A South African zoo wants a chimp to go cold turkey.

Posted by: yhbc on May 6, 2005 07:55 PMCareful, man. You get carpal tunnel syndrome and there's no chance for worker's comp.

Well, that whole "get a computer tech diploma instead of a law degree" thing is starting to look a hell of a lot smarter now, I tell you.
Posted by: Crash on May 7, 2005 07:59 PMOK, I have a question which is also, I suspect, sex-related.
The guy who is painting my house showed up this morning with a giant hickey on his neck. So I'm like, "Nice hickey, Ben." And he says, "I earned it."
Back in my day, hickeys were bad. But now you earn them? I don't get it.

Depends on how you look at it. Getting caught with one by, say, your parents or your boss was bad, but the process of recieving a hickey is quite nice.

Posted by: ColdChef on May 7, 2005 11:58 PMSpeaking of evil heads, would someone please stop all the pounding in mine?
Oh, sure, it's a self-inflicted hell I live in, but I would like someone else to fix it. Thank you. (I'm too old to party like a rock star any more. Ugh.)
Posted by: aine42 on May 8, 2005 02:29 PMAh. Knew I was forgetting something.
Ooh. And suddenly a bloody mary sounds really, really tasty.
Posted by: aine42 on May 8, 2005 05:12 PMI'm lucky that way. Today's laundry day, but my laundromat is right across the street from a nice hole-in-the-wall bar. I spent an hour sucking down Buds and palavering with the Venezuelan bartender. When I put "Suspicious Minds," on the juke both he and the Maltese (I found out later) senior citizen two stools down started singing along. Nice moment.
Posted by: jonmc on May 8, 2005 05:21 PMWhether or not you sing along to Suspicious Minds happens to be my litmus test for being my friend.
Posted by: jpoulos on May 9, 2005 10:22 AMAnd you come down on which side -- to sing or not to sing?
Posted by: aine42 on May 9, 2005 12:09 PMFigured so, but just wanted to be sure you weren't one of the weirdos. ;)
Posted by: aine42 on May 9, 2005 03:28 PMOK, everybody, 1 and a 2 and a 3:
We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out....
Today they've got me working on the Lords Of Dogtown soundtrack album.
I'm in my own personal heaven right now.
Posted by: jonmc on May 10, 2005 01:50 PMWhy does anyone needs a fictionalized Z-Boys movie? They should have just spent half that money promoting and distributing the real thing.
Posted by: jpoulos on May 10, 2005 03:39 PMColdChef! 14 Tony nominations for Spamalot! You have your finger on the pulse of the American musical theatre, my friend.
Posted by: tizzie on May 10, 2005 03:43 PMI agree with you on the movie, but the soundtrack is pretty fuckin' badass, you have to admit.
