I think she was 90 you heathen. A little more biblical knowledge might be beneficial, but kind of useless if your heart isn't in the right place admittedly.

So many other good music services that play under bridges and parking garages, and they still do this.

I guess my confession though is that I hate anything in a car not working as it should and it bugs me that I can't select Sirius and have it work, so it's easy for them to take advantage of me unless I keep my guard up.
I literally just finished reading the same offer from todays mail. My free subscription with the new lease expires in August.

I'll probably do it. Now without a CD player and me being old school without playlists or other music sources, Sirius is my go to.
Pretty sure they will give you the same discounted rate if you call them and threaten to cancel when your year is coming to an end.
They definitely will, but you've got to remember to call them which isn't really on my life priority list. They got me once and never again.

I've got a ton of music on my phone, a memory stick with my top 300 favorite songs, Apple radio, Spotify, Amazon music, so there's never a shortage of music, but it bugs me my car is equipped with this but I can't (won't) use it

Actually, you got her son's name wrong (it's spelled Isaac), but I was willing to let that go until you decided to go toe to toe with me you "Nerd in the 'Nard".

Nard-core don't need nobody's name spelt right, you grammr-k-nigit


Wait, you understood all that, right? I can't be playing to crowds that don't catch my drift.

I prefer "Nerd in the 'Nard"...just feels somehow more accurate than "Nard-core".

But I got y'alls.

I have no idea what you're talking about, and am not going to ask for clarification since I'm sure this topic falls under several categories in our mandatory annual discrimination and inclusion training at work.

The only well-known IT tidbit that I know of is that most cops type with only two fingers.....

I don't have any kids. But dad had a huge influence on how I live my life and the person I have become. He taught me to be humble, to treat others they way I want to be treated, to lead by example and gave me a great work ethic. His nine grandchildren were also lucky to have him around. He'll live on.

Bet you would've made a great mom. Especially because of how your dad raised you.

My dad was a shithead, but my mom was the best person I knew. I like to think I am influenced by her.

Every man should know for his own safety that you should NEVER suggest or ask a woman if she's pregnant...unless you see a baby's head protruding from her birth canal.....

But isn't that only if you see them in person and ask? Because if they're not pregnant, you're suggesting they're fat, and then you're taking your life in to your own hands.

And you'd better run.

I did this once. I made the huge mistake of asking a sales rep that came to see me when she was due. She then told me her daughter was 1 year old. I almost died. I felt so bad. But she really did look pregnant.

So you send me pics of a diamond ring? LOL. I’m old, and you have a hottie attorney.

Ironically I just bought a nice stone. I need to decide on a setting.

Left hand is “We” but right hand is “Me”.

I confess that I ordered parts from Aliexpress

In my defense: I wanted these parts for months, and got turned away at my main dealer to come back mid/late June. So I did, today - and they told me to come back in August. Went to another dealer today, they also said August.


So I ordered the 50th Jahre roundels (front & back) off Aliexpress
