OOPS!
Looks like it’s a bad day to be hiding money in a Swiss Bank account.
UBS just agreed to turn some 4000 names over to the IRS (Wouldn’t it be fun if some of those were Congressmen?).
The IRS is recommending that this might be a good time for other US citizens who are hiding money there, to voluntarily turn themselves in … because they have another 5000 tax evaders in their sites for the next round. The estimate that these folks will represent another 12 BILLION in hidden money.
Sorry Jack, looks like you’ll have to come clean.
;)
My mom use to squirrel money in off shore accounts.
I got really mad at her the first time I found out and basically went up one side of her and down the other. She’s since stopped.
TEB – Tell him it’s time to get up and get to work!
I wish I had the kind of money that warranted squirreling.
J0e, it’s the lack of a body in my bed that I’m complaining about. Hubby left for Halifax last night and won’t be back until Saturday.
So what you are saying is that you are having an “Out of body” experience?
Joe (again), my mother is a hoarder. She’s the type that will buy second hand clothes, only repair her home when she has to, etc so she does have money to squirrel.
She’s not a sharer, though. Even though I’m an only child, I very rarely see any of the money she hoards (which is part of the reason I got upset with her. As her only heir, I didn’t want the headache of dealing with her off shore accounts when it passed on to me).
I, however, am the complete opposite. I love to spend. Savings? What’s that?
I could be worse, I could be a necromantic and love every body
I could crash my car and have an auto-body experience
Ok, I have work to do.
Just avoid the student body experience. Oh, it might seem like a good idea at the time but if they are under 21 the local gendarme tend to get grumpy.
Age of consent is 16 here, J0e.
Ack!
The Horror
the horror
the horror
Student Bodies was a movie that my other brother and I use to make our parents rent so we could watch it over and over … on Betamax.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083133/
It had amazing dialogue like this telephone call:
Murderer (Breather): I’m gonna kill next at the football game. Click.
Principal: Did you hang up?
Murderer (Breather): No. I just said, “Click.”
Conversation with my husband this morning:
Dan: Have you seen this link?
Me: Yes.
Dan: You see all the cool links before I do.
Me: Deadpan
I suppose Deadpan could be the body in TEB’s bed, but I doubt the iPod would be that comfortable.
Replace the iPod with an “Oh My Bod”
*cough*
I’ll grab Van’s coat…
This didn’t work the first time (stupid WP) so will try again.
Got this from Evo on FB. Thought it was funny

I for one am interested in talking to my table. It might result in a more intelligent conversation.
Everybody has something to hide…
… except for me and my monkey.
I talk to my mirror… but that conversation is pretty one sided.
Look at picture 2 and tell me what’s wrong with her sign

I am a product of the pubic school system…
Things could get pretty hairy without a pubic option.
what?
cool bed (for that pubic option)
http://www.motoart.com/beds/747-jet-liner-bed
Ah the pubic cube, when you solve it, you get arrested.
True but she enjoyed it…
Time for lunch with my Boo. East Indian buffet is the meal du jour.
I think that her failure to receive a pubic option is what is making her such a bitch.
oops
did I just post that?
OK. Since we’ve wandered into health care again.
=======================
Former Industry insider describes the Insurance companies efforts to stop reform.
http://tinyurl.com/qqabsu
(excerpt)
“So the next time you hear someone warning against a “government takeover” of our health care system, or that the creation of a public health insurance option would send us down the “slippery slope toward socialism,” know that someone like I used to be – wrote those terms, knowing it might turn many of the very people who would benefit most from meaningful reform into unwitting spokespeople for the industry.”
I can’t claim to have a full, deep, thorough understanding of ALL of the facts in the healthcare mess, but I’d REALLY love to see a reporter walk through one of those crowds and ask the protesters to define the terms on their own signs. Let’s see if the woman who objects to Pubic Option even knows what the Public Option entails.
The knee-jerk anti-everythingnotRepublican industry AND the insurance industry lobbyists are demonstrating just how easy population mind control can be, given the proper resources.
Sorry – I only posted on a serious topic because the best “body” jokes I could come up with all involved Governor Jesse “The Body” Ventura.
Heading back from seeing the new Taranatino flick.
Not as gory as the trailer suggests.
Some great scenes that build up the tension (at the beginning and the bar scene).
Oh and a silly plot.
Sniff on the show notes.
ZP declares his love for Slient Hill 2:

Err that’s Silent rather than Slient
So I didn’t want to spell the name of the film wrong, so instead I spelt the surname of the Director wrong.
groan
*holds out coat for Van*
It’s just occurred to me that the position of “Coat Check Girl” at the Deadpan Bar could be very lucrative.
Jj Are you applying for the position?
What was that about the director’s wong?
Van, you can be so dirty sometimes.
That is an “equal gender position” but the Job Title is the same regardless.
he he he
two of us just said “position”
he he he
… and yes, I’ll comment about WNDR’s “position” but I am not touching Ed’s “wong”.
Cos two wongs wouldn’t make it…
A wong in the hand is worth two in the bush?
Wong again.
Naturally..
Re: Rhettro – ouch!
I’d say this conversation has taken a wong turn.
“wong way” Carrigan
A certain Blondie song springs to mind.
[Barbara Walters] There’s something very wong about these comments [/Barbara Walters]
Now he only eats guitars.
Wong Way or Another
The tide is high, but I’m going wong.
This has been a really wong day.
Wongly Accused.
Sorry gals, there are no wong answers, only “un-asked” ones.
Some women seem to prefer guys that treat them wong.
Some seem to enjoy a wong distance relationship.
But T-Rex may have summed it up best,
“Get it on, bang the wong , get it on.”
Or as Percy Sledge’s Chinese brother sang: “If Lovin You is Wong, I Don’t Want to Be White.”
^LOL
Once I had a love and it was a gas,
Soon turned out had a heart of glass.
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust.
Love’s wong behind.
Do you know you can’t find steel hoop boning anywhere in this city?!!!?
Everybody wants to sell me this polyester stuff but I don’t think it’s strong enough. Any sewers in Deadpan land? do you think a strong gauge craft wire would work instead (for a hoop skirt)?
Boning not a mistype?
cough
Ah yes. Should have seen that coming. No Van, not a mistype. Boning is what you use in corsets and hoop skirts. Impossible to get here in Calgary
So making a costume?
“Boning is what you use in corsets and hoop skirts.”
I’m failing to see how that is different than Van’s definition.
Yup. Ultimately it’s going to be a civil war era ball gown. Right now working on the corset and hoop skirt undergarments, though.
So Neil Gaiman’s ‘The Graveyard Book’ arrived from Amazon today..hope it’s a good un.
CP: Ruby Fruit Radio 176
Rhett, I don’t think there’s anything else I can say that would help the situation
Can you order it from here, TEB?
http://store.corsetmaking.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=CMS&Category_Code=HB
enjoyed Graveyard book. It’s also a Hugo winner. Neil Gaiman gives an excellent reading of it on Audible
Pity you can’t get the wire. Would come in useful if you turned into MacGyver bunny and needed a lockpick.
..or a garotte if you were in a QT film.
Okay, I’ll go and have a quiet read now..
I always like to do my boning in conjunction with corsets. White, lacy, corsets.
Which in itself is a silly expression.
That’s a quiet read and not Rhettro’s inuendo.
Rhett, it’s possible. However I’m the type who likes to feel before buying or at leat have had someone els feel or use it (yes, yes insert another boning joke here). Do am looking to see if anybody has had any experience with it since it’s still not exactly what I’m looking for
With all the typos can you tell I’m on my touch?
I can’t think of anything witty while I’m so fricken ill.
Anyone wanna come be me for the day so I can go back to bed?
*hug* Cj. Hope you feel better soon
Virtual hug Cj, hope you get better soon
I just thought you had a good sniff of the barman’s apron TEB.
… Speaking of boning, Van? ;)
Where is this bar??
Count me in!
I need to bone up on what’s going on. Or was that just wong?

Night Pan, early start in the morning.
Night Van.
Here … you almost forgot your coat.
;)
Sleep tight. Don’t let the wongs bite.
I’d like to apply for the coat-check girl job. Is that still open? I promise not to go through the pockets. The idea never even occurred to me.
Dammit. I’ll never be as good of a coat-check girl as J0e.
I abdicate the job to you CJ but only if you wear a JUST a raincoat, stockings and heals whilst doing so.
hmmm
I’ll be in my bunk.
Will fishnet do? Those are the only type of stockings I actually own at this time.
Yet another entertaining themed picture site:
http://thereifixedit.com/
found a solution to my boning problem
*dramatic pause while people get the comments out of their system*
Apparently a good substitute is aquarium hose.
Go ahead, I dare you to make comments about boning and fish…
Chinese food for one and a Jack Rabbit. Not very healthy, but a good meal when you’re alone.
So, where is everybody?
A Jack Rabbit?
You want to de-boning is always good prior to eating fish.
psst!
we’re over here in the coat check closet.
“You want to de-boning” Sometimes I really wish the comments page had an edit button. *sigh*
Did you mean you want to do de-boning in the coat check closet?
De-boning prior to eating the fish … I’m at a loss as to how to continue my train of thought on this.

Well, I see Deadpan went deep down the rabbit hole this afternoon. But, I’m still a little confused. Who’s the one in the corset boning wong in the coat closet?
My money’s on Joe, but maybe I’m wong.
You may be wong for all I know, but you may be wight.
“the one in the corset boning wong in the coat closet?”
Some how, I don’t remember that from my “Clue” game. I’d be willing to be it was Colonial Mustard though.
With the candle stick?
