Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Message From Bird Dog

New England is suffering power outages from a severe storm, so most of our posters are out in the cold.


However, Bird Dog is making the best of it.

Hee-hee...I understand that this works for summer power outages too. And then there's a mini-population explosion nine months later.

i just hope when the snow melts, there's not two frozen people laying on that hood.

That would be "lying", Buddy.

Here's something for ya:

GRAMMAR IS IMPORTANT.

The boss had to fire somebody and he narrowed it down to one of two people,

Mary or Jack. It was a tough decision because they were both decent workers.

Rather than flip a coin, he decided he would fire the first one who used the water cooler the next morning.

Mary came in that day with a horrible hangover after partying all night. She went to the cooler to take an aspirin.

The boss approached her and said, "Mary, I've never done this before but I either have to lay you or Jack off."

"Could you jack off?" she said. "I feel like hell this morning."

Very droll. But...what if that "laying" were taken as a transitive, in the sense that "to lay" means to, well, you know, another person? When that activity is under way, who is laying whom, or is it mutual? If it's mutual, then "each other" is not needed in Buddy Larsen's comment, and the sentence is correct, if clumsy. Whether one can still be engaged in that act while frozen is to be debated, of course. Must there be visible motion? I doubt it. As with real estate, location is what matters. -- Yikes, I can't go on like this.

Advisory: lame joke dredged out of free association follows...

Girl to taxidermist: My rabbits died.

Taxidermist: Would you like them mounted?

Girl: No. Holding hands would be fine.

And yet someone here got banned for using a 'bad' word.

Hypocrites. The lot of you.

Woman to dairyman: "Can I buy enough milk for a milk bath?"

Dairyman: "Sure --want it pasturized?"

Woman: "Naw, just up to my tits'll do."

That picture reminds me of the time when the Mrs and I....

On second thought, never mind.
