What One Book Have You Read The Most Times
Thornton Melon replied to BunnysBastatrds's topic in The Geek Club
My 2nd favorite Clancy book, after Without Remorse. I think the only book I've read twice is Hunt for Red October -
No apostrophes?

You mean "regerts", right?

Jack's been losing it the last couple of years. You're right, he has trouble keeping up with the action. He also has developed some kind of slurring speech where he just can't enunciate simple words properly. You'd think he had a stroke, but he claims he hasn't, and no doctor can figure out what's wrong with him. He was replaced for a few game stretch a couple of times this season, but the guy who replaced him was boring as hell. Jack may have lost it, but at least he gets people talking

March Madness does nothing for me any more. Likely will not watch a single game
Thornton Melon replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
I posted that from the sh!tter at work. I was drawing a blank, and remembered as I was washing my hands. -

Thornton Melon replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
I don't think I've really paid attention to it since the early '90s. The only college basketball player I could name right now is that chick from Iowa. What's her name again? -
You Can Vote For Any President In The Last 50 Years (Who Gets Your Vote ?)
Thornton Melon replied to BeenHereBefore's topic in The Geek Club
I went with Ford. He didn't get any votes to be President, so I might as well give him one. -

I'm deathly afraid of heights. I couldn't do that for all the money in the world.

I never considered sunscreen as "skin care", it's just a necessity when I go to the beach or if I'm working outside or hanging around the pool in the summer. Other than that, my hands get extremely dry and cracked this time of year, and I use whatever hand cream I have handy. In fact, I just used some CeraVe healing ointment about 10 minutes ago.

Scott Mitchell is Tired of Being a Scapegoat
Thornton Melon replied to Voltaire's topic in The Geek Club
Scott Mitchell was my first fantasy draft pick ever, in 1996, after his one good season in 1995. The guy right after me picked Brett Favre -
People in wheel chairs have tremendous upper body strength

I didn't steal the Plan B. I wanted to..... -
It's only available in the Northeast, but Second Fiddle, a double IPA from Fiddlehead Brewing, is great. In my local store I'll see 4-packs of 16oz Second Fiddle cans for typical craft beer price of $16. Then occasionally, right next to that will be 12-packs of 12oz cans for $18, same price as Sam Adams or Corona. Gee, let me think...64oz for 16 bucks, or 144oz for 2 bucks more....

Unfortunately, it won't matter in November. The state will be forever Blue. -
I read the thread title as "Tard wife". I wasn't sure how to answer that

At what age do you plan to retire/have already retired?
Thornton Melon replied to Pimpadeaux's topic in The Geek Club
At 62 and 4 months, I'll have enough age and years of service to retire from my company and get the health insurance subsidy. I figure I'll round it up to 63, plus that way, I'll get one more yearly bonus. That's a little over 3 years from now. I'd probably still work part time to delay taking SS, but I'll be done with my professional career (I hope ) -

Yeah, that's true. But, I don't think anyone here is new to the internet. -
The Final Play Of Every World Series (1990–2023)
Thornton Melon replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
I stopped at 2004. At that point, I saw the 4 I care about. Did anyone notice the asterisk for 2017? -

Good thing you explained the meaning of the term "butterface", or we would've been completely lost. -
