Obama Judgeship Bribery Joins Louisiana Purchase and Cornhusker Kickback
Are you a member of the U.S. House of Reps or a Senator that needs some "convincing" that selling out your constituents and implementing a socialist take over of healthcare is a good idea? Well, President Wheeler-Dealer has a deal for you.
You've heard of the Cornhusker Kickback where a Senator from a western state can get all sorts of freebies from the government for a "yes" vote on Obamacare?
How about that ever popular Louisiana Purchase where a nice southern lady was paid off for that "yes" vote?
Well now comes Obama's newest backroom deal in an effort to payoff a member of Congress for a "yes" vote.
Obama has now bribed a member of Congress with a judgeship to the brother to a member of the House of Reps in hopes that he will vote "yes" on Obamacare during the now upcoming reconciliation phase of the bill.
Scott Matheson, brother of Congressman Jim Matheson (D, Utah), was suddenly nominated to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit today. Obidiently, Congressman Matheson went from a "no" vote on Obamacare to "undecided."
As Matheson's office told the Weekly Standard:
"The Congressman is looking for development of bipartisan consensus," Matheson's press secretary Alyson Heyrend wrote to THE WEEKLY STANDARD on February 22. "It's too early to know if that will occur." Asked if one could infer that if no Republican votes in favor of the bill (i.e. if a bipartisan consensus is not reached) then Rep. Matheson would vote no, Heyrend replied: "I would not infer anything. I'd wait to see what develops, starting with the health care summit on Thursday."
So, what do we call this payoff? I don't know, maybe the Great Salt Lick Judgeship? What ever we call it, it stinks.

About the Teleseminar
Family Limited Partnerships and Family LLCs are among the most effective planning tools for transferring family businesses from generation to generation while reducing federal estate and gift taxes. Among the many keys to successfully using FLPs is transferring control and obtaining a correspondingly steep discount on the valuation of the company. But the IRS frequently and aggressively challenges the use of FLPs and their valuations, which have made their use fraught with more risk. Led by two of the nation's foremost experts on FLPs/FLLCs, this program will provide you with a practical guide to sophisticated planning techniques using these vehicles, structuring and drafting tips, a real world assessment of the risks involved, and recent trends in audits of FLPs.

README_ami.txt for version 7.0aa of Vim: Vi IMproved. This file explains the installation of Vim on Amiga systems. See README.txt for general information about Vim. Unpack the distributed files in the place where you want to keep them. It is wise to have a "vim" directory to keep your vimrc file and any other files you change. The distributed files go into a subdirectory. This way you can easily upgrade to a new version. For example: dh0:editors/vim contains your vimrc and modified files dh0:editors/vim/vim54 contains the Vim version 5.4 distributed files dh0:editors/vim/vim55 contains the Vim version 5.5 distributed files You would then unpack the archives like this: cd dh0:editors tar xf t:vim60bin.tar tar xf t:vim60rt.tar Set the $VIM environment variable to point to the top directory of your Vim files. For the above example: set VIM=dh0:editors/vim Vim version 5.4 will look for your vimrc file in $VIM, and for the runtime files in $VIM/vim54. See ":help $VIM" for more information. Make sure the Vim executable is in your search path. Either copy the Vim executable to a directory that is in your search path, or (preferred) modify the search path to include the directory where the Vim executable is.

Double trouble: Orioles now two back in Wild Card
Held to two hits by Lackey, Baltimore off to Tampa for critical series
BOSTON -- The Orioles' aggressiveness at the plate was a close-to-perfect ingredient for John Lackey's no-hitter cocktail.
Lackey pounded the strike zone with fastballs on Thursday night and the Orioles kept swinging. But the hits weren't falling.
Lackey carried a no-hitter into the seventh inning before Adam Jones hit a homer, but the O's offense was lifeless for much of the Red Sox's 3-1 win that clinched a playoff berth for Boston. The Orioles leave town having taken two of three in the series and nine of 16 overall this season,
"After you win the first two you'd really like to see [if you can sweep]," manager Buck Showalter said. "They have a good pitcher on the mound, we have a good pitcher on the mound and usually there's a small margin of error. Our guys aren't satisfied with [winning two of three]. Mathematically over a long season it bodes well, but we're in a different spot. Every game is either a gained opportunity or a missed one."
And this was a costly missed one. The Orioles fell from one to two games back in the Wild Card. On Friday, they will start a four-game series with the Rays, who are tied with the Rangers for the two Wild Card spots, with the Indians a half-game behind.
The Orioles had just two baserunners, both coming on walks, until the seventh inning, and four all night. A naturally aggressive team forced to attack by the strike-throwing Lackey, the O's finished with just two hits -- J.J. Hardy singled in the eighth -- as Lackey needed 113 pitches for his first nine-inning complete game this season.
"With their lineup, that can get out of hand pretty quick," Lackey said. "You've got to just try to make pitches."
Jones said the Orioles wanted to stay aggressive against Lackey, and they did. But they didn't see any 3-0 counts and had 14 at-bats end in three pitches or fewer.
The Orioles have seen fewer 3-0 counts (249) and 3-1 counts (425) than every other team in the American League but one. It's hard to fault their aggressiveness when, for much of the season, it had been working.
Until September, the runs were in surplus.
But the fourth-best offense in the Majors has fallen to the middle third during the season's final month, and it's anchored a pitching staff that ranks near the top of the big leagues with a 3.17 ERA since Sept. 1. They've gone 16 games without scoring more than five runs.
"I don't think anybody is trying to do anything different [offensively]," said Brian Roberts. "You come in here to a place like this and we're going to get three good pitchers. We're going to go to Tampa and get four good pitchers. So I don't think anybody expects to go out and score 10 every night. We've got our work cut out for us and we're just trying to get wins at this point. We have to score more than the other team."
Chris Tillman pitched another strong game, holding the Red Sox to three runs in seven innings.
Tillman struggled through the first two innings, allowing three runs on two walks and five hits, including a two-run homer by Stephen Drew. But he found his groove after that, allowing just two baserunners through the next five innings.
It was just too late.
"That's the way these games go at the end of the season," said Tillman. "You have to be on top of it from the get-go all the way through. I made some mistakes and they were big."

I searched for a blue chevron rug for my dining room for a few weeks with no luck. Everything I found online was very expensive, even for the smaller rugs. Then I stumbled upon this 5x8 rug on Overstock. It's decent quality for the price and it rolled out flat within a few minutes. The blue color is accurate to the website. It's low pile, yet soft so it should hold up well to my cat who tends to scratch up my longer pile rugs. Standard shipping arrived within three days, which was a nice surprise. I would reccomend this to anyone who is looking for a stylish well priced rug.
Good product for the price,however I would suggest spending the extra money for the one that is available in wool. I felt it needed a carpet pad under it so it would feel more plush,with wool rugs I have gotten this was not necessary. I kept it because I am using it in my closet ans so is good enough.
This chevron rug is very thin and not very high quality but i really do like it i would suggest a rug liner with some padding underneath this rug,to give it a softness to step. The rust color is pretty true to the site picture, exactly what i was looking for in color. good rug all around!!
I was looking for a carpet for our living room that looks great and doesn't shed. Our last carpet shed so much I had to leave the vacuum next to it or else it was dust bunny central. This carpet is a dream and we didn't need the grip pad as the website suggested.
This is a great little rug for a great little price! :) It's better than I expected it to be. My last rug purchase on Overstock was a disappointment - I spent over *** for a rug that I would not have spent *** on if I had seen it in the store - and was worried about making another rug purchase, but this rug exceeded my expectations. As other reviewers mentioned, it's not super thick so if you want that, you'll have to spend a little more, but it is very soft on the feet. I haven't noticed any shedding at all. The edges are neat and not fraying after a couple of weeks of use in our living room, where it sees pretty constant foot traffic. It doesn't seem to need a non-slip pad, although I have one underneath it anyway. The white of the blue/white is a tan/beige, so if you're planning on having it near things that are actually white, it might look off, but it works perfected for me. Overall, I'm very impressed.
I was nervous that it would be a brighter shade of orange instead of rust. But it was a perfect match with my decor. i was so happy. I've been watching this rug for a while and trying to decide. Glad I bought it.
I realize that the computer screen can change the look of what the color actually is; however, everything I have ever ordered has been spot on. Not this time. The rug in the rust color looks more like a rusty red in the picture. Sooo far from what it really is. It is more of a coppery brown...burnt orange color. Seems of decent quality so if your not looking for a rusty red...It might work for you!
This rug is pretty. Had a little fraying on the side but nothing major. I do like this rug and I would purchase another one like it.
Sorry to say this rug was uneven . Doesn't lay correctly . This is the first time that have gotten something bad from Overstock .
This is a nice name brand area rug with style. The color is more orange than red but suits my style. Nice value for the price.

This is a perfect example of why the people are not always right.
Hawaii is a lot like Japan. Yet in Japan, there is not the level of congestion found in Hawaii because the government there built rail mass transit.
Did anyone notice how the people shouting here are Hawaiians? You can tell by the lack of proper grammar and absurd capitalization of everything. These are the voters making the decisions ladies and gentlemen.
It seems like nothing of worth ever gets built in the US anymore because one group or another blocks it. I guarantee you that if a place as compact as Honolulu got a proper metro system with above ground and underground stations, it would decrease traffic. I also guarantee you that if Oahu had a proper train system for the entire island, that would also decrease traffic.
Those are big ideas, with the kind of big money that only the military stationed in Hawaii attracts.
Wow, e5dLoC4EaC. You are breathtakingly bigoted. And on top of that, you provide us with no evidence, nor do you make any compelling arguments, to support the contentions you put forward. Yet you claim to be a superior stakeholder due to your grasp of the English language? Your grammar may stand up to scrutiny, but your critical reasoning skills certainly don't.
My goodness, you're the type of person who once would have condemned giving the women the vote on the basis of their lack of education and low contributions to tax revunues. Without ever seeing the irony of your position.
I agree, I am bigoted. I also agree that I failed to provide a sound technical evaluation of my guarantees.
On the bigoted note, guilty as charged. However, if you live in Hawaii or other Pacific island possessions of the USA, you might also become bigoted. I do not trust the locals to make sound decisions for the future of their island.
As for the technical evaluation, I will tone it down. From what I have seen in NYC, London, and other major cities with a truly comprehensive city and regional heavy rail transit system; the effects are exponentially cumulative. The more lines you have, the more areas you reach, and the more interconnected you make the system with other transit systems, the more people use the system.
If you have one line, then yeah, not many people will use it. Add two, and the growth in ridership could be exponential, not geometric. Add a regional train system, and then you might really see results.
One more thing, I totally agree with not allowing people with low education or low IQ to vote. I would also not allow those without certain tax revenues to vote.
This is a Republic, not a Democracy. Why should people vote with no stake in the system? All they will do is vote for government handouts without any concern, because they do not pay for the handouts. Or they will simply make ignorant decisions, because they are either uneducated or too dumb.
Why should a hobo's vote count as much as Bill Gate's? That it does is a flaw, potentially fatal flaw, of our political system.
@e5dLoC4EaC I completely agree with you. I don't think that we know what we are talking about here in Hawaii. We should totally emulate the Japanese, because hey, we are an island just like them, so naturally it follows that we could benefit from emulating a rail system that has an on time average of around 85% and with a late time considered to be 15 seconds or more. An efficient system like that would be sure to reduce the congestion on our tiny island. If they are doing that in Japan, then surely the rail systems in your neighborhood should be doing 100% on time, because hard go getter Americans like yourself must sure that nothing less is accepted. I would even go so far to say that you should throw in an application to run the project. Your knowledge and vast experience with rail systems and congestion reducing acumen would surely be a great asset to us, the undereducated government tit-sucking ignorant locals with terrible grammar skills, when it comes to the major island changing ideas, because man, what do we know anyway? Plus with your piles of cash laying around (I assume you have stacks upon stacks of it, because you practice the sacred rite of voting, which should be reserved only for the affluent) you could help fund the project, because it will be something that you could be proud of because of the guaranty of efficiency We shouldn't be in charge of our own decision making, because that would be un-American for us the poor beggars and beach combing hobos to have a say in such important matters. Shoot, you probably have a phd in problem solving for the under represented like us. Only the higher educated, justifiably racist and elitist people, such as yourself, should be allowed to make these decisions. Keep Trolling, yo, because you do it so well.
A troll says things he/she does not believe in to anger others for the sole purpose of angering them. I believe what I wrote, so I am not a "troll".
Let me ask you some questions for your rumination.
Do you think someone like "UncleMSK" below should have the same amount of political franchise as you or I?
We spend trillions on the military. We also spend trillions on entitlement programs. Why can the federal government not spend hundreds of millions on public works programs that enhance quality of life for all?
Think about this. We have 11 active aircraft carriers to China's 0, yet we build more for some potential future war....which would most likely occur over Taiwan. We still spend billions on our armed forces in Japan, which is probably a reason why they get to build those trains.
Of course, we spend billions on these entitlement programs that merely maintain a shabby status quo, without really propelling Hawaii or the nation forward.
Yet a project worth 2 billion is seen as a massive waste of money. Weren't we spending about 1 billion a day in Iraq at one point?
Ok, now the newest "Imua Rail" claims JOBS! JOBS? When it has been a proven FACT that 41% of all the jobs to be created by this rail is OUT OF STATE!
AND - my expectation - of that 41%, MOST if not ALL those jobs are the HIGHEST PAY of all the jobs - Supervisors, Management, and LEAD Engineers (NOT the one that the ad says as Right out of UH and "...being able to stay home..") which means THE MOST PROFIT of OUR City TAX MONEY is going OUT OF STATE!
REALIZE - that is 41% - FORTY ONE PERCENT! WHY is it that it was presented as a project to create jobs when almost HALF is OUT OF STATE? Why not at LEAST 75% IN STATE and 25% OUT? (In other words, for every 3 IN STATE, 1 OUT.)
I think most people would agree that WE DO HAVE MOST, (*maybe not all), but MOST of the capabilities to be able to do this, so WHY SO MANY POSITIONS going OUT OF STATE?
For me, I think since we HAVE most of the capabilities, design, planning, technological and constructional skills, that 80% should be here, 8 local, TWO out... not a 59%/41% - for every 11 local, more than 8 OUT?
Talk IS cheap - WANT SELF SUSTAINABILITY and SELF SUFFICIENCY - then this is sending the exact OPPOSITE message of sending jobs OUTSIDE - That is NOT "SELF" ANYTHING!
Please stop shouting (i.e., upper-casing entire words). It is considered impolite on the internet. Thank you.
EVERY "Imua Rail" is a DOUBLE-TALKING AD CONJURED UP by IDIOTS!
FIRST AD - Supposed STUDENT riding TheBus - so BIG questions: a) WHICH school is she going to? ANSWER - IF a PRIVATE HS, a PUBLIC OUT OF DISTRICT HS,or ANY college, then ANY are a matter of CHOICE! YOU choose YOUR DESTINY/DESTINATION! And if UH Manoa - then RAIL will ONLY GO tO ALA MOANA, then you have to cross through the ENTIRE Shopping Center to get to TheBus! Now WHY would ANY STUDENT want to do THAT instead of getting on TheBus and TRASNFERRING in over a DOZEN different points?
2) Ad claims "expanded" TheBus which is "The Best" system in teh country! LIE - FTA just dia a tri-annual report and we were told by DTS "..we got a B- or C+.." and ".. at least we didn't FAIL"! So is THAT THE BEST? NO! EXPANDEDD? ELIMINATING STOPS since about 3-5 YEARS ago, adn now - eliminating ROUTES! Is THAT "EXPANDING"?
3) "Grandma" says "less cars on the road so cleaner air for my grandkids, and we can power it with our tradewinds and the sun.." So we are going to build those HUGE wind turbines now ALL OVER THE ISLAND or put SOLAR PANELS on EVERY BUILDING? do they think we ALL do NOT understand HOW MANY WIND TURBINES or HOW MANY SOLAR PANELS it will take to power a HEAVY RAIL STEEL-On-STEEL?
Lastly, currently as a para-transit rider, this is ADA certified. But ABOVE GROUND so what happens when you FORCE physically & mentally challlenged persons to ride the rail after cutting back para-transit, then forcing them to ride TheBus, then eliminate Bus routes to FORCE them to now ride the rail, then the RAIL FAILS? Now already stressed with the closure of HMC-West, you now are going to ADD further STRESS on EMT'S, HFD, and HPD in order to help these persons? PLAIN STUPIDITY and as always - JUMPING without THINKING of CONSEQUENCES! But there is (now shoing!) a "NETWORK" of Pro Rail Companies, Individuals, and even CITY COUNCIL! (a $60k AND another $5k "JOB" EXPOSED of a COUNCIL MEMBER!) So you think that things will NOT be found? I want ON RECORD ALL Pro Rail people on a LIST, so IF this actually goes through - I want EVERY ONE of THEM to PAY FOR IT! Look at all the CITIES on the MAINLAND that are going BANKRUPT with only MILLIONS in debt - and this is a $5.6 BILLION project of which the ENTIRE TAX PAYING population is LESS THAN EVERY ONE of THEM! MILLIONS vs. BILLIONS, and LESS PEOPLE to PAY FOR IT?
the writer of the article states that:
" In 2011, according to one study, Honolulu's drivers spent an average of 58 hours stuck in traffic—more than in any other American city."
Is that per week, per month, per year? (per day???)
It seems to me the problem with rail projects in America is that people don't ride trains so they don't make sense economically so they aren't built so people keep relying on cars and so people don't ride trains. A vicious cycle you see!
Compare, for instance, the Los Angeles Metro system to the little known Calgary C-Train. The former is almost three times as long and serves a population almost 4 times bigger on a city limits basis and almost 13 times bigger on a metro basis. But its ridership is only 30% bigger. Of course the economics of LA's transit system are going to be terrible! Hardly anybody uses it!
But the reasons they don't use it aren't immediately clear. LA is in fact a more densely populated city than Calgary, over twice as dense in the city-proper. The real reason the LA Metro is underutilized, in my opinion at least, is that most people in LA have alternatives that they like better. Why would someone who's been driving to work all their life suddenly start riding the train with a bunch of poor people when it's inconvenient and generally unpleasant? Calgary's secret is that it has forced people to ride the train. There is simply not enough parking downtown for anywhere near the number of workers. Because it's been that way for so long there is very little stigma involved with riding the bus or train - about half the downtown workforce use transit every day.
If I'm trying to make a point in this rambling mess it's this: just building a train won't fix Honolulu's problems. Despite what they say, people will sit in traffic for hours rather than start riding the train after a lifetime of driving.
The only way a project like this is likely to succeed is if the state increased the cost of driving to work somehow. In Calgary's case this was done by limiting parking. In Hawaii's case it could be done by jacking up fuel prices or car import prices or registration prices or having a congestion charge or something along those lines. I don't know the politics of Hawaii very well, but in the American states I am familiar with all of these ideas would be political suicide. Therefore I have little hope that they will be put into effect or that this rail line will be successful.
Why LA based people do NOT ride rail transit? Because (as was told by one of my former managers) HE lives near Pasadena, and works near Buena Park. NO Rail goes anywhere NEAR EITHER of his end points, so he drives EVERY DAY, and DOES NOT drive when he does NOT HAVE to go in to the office! BUT now the company he works for has allowed he and his counterparts to do "TELECOMMUNICATIONS", so he now goes in to the office only twice a week. THAT saves him COST, GAS, TIME. WE need to learn THAT and bring the 21st CENTURY into our city, and not something that was proposed more than 40 years ago!
I also believe that we should take LESSONS from LA and at certain ON RAMPS here, REGULATE with TARFFIC lights cars entering the freeway. EXAMPLE of a PERFECT on-ramp: Queens with Kinau EAST on-ramp MERGING with ANOTHER on-ramp, two lanes merging into the freeway AT THE SAME PLACE! BOTH should be REGULATED like LA with ONE CAR per GREEN, and in THAT way, we don't get TEN cars trying to "fit" (aka; FORCE!) their way in on the freeway in ONE CAR SPACE!

THAT causes MAJOR TRAFFIC BUILD UP!
I'm always struck by the irony of environmental groups who oppose rapid transit proposals. Yeah, let's all drive to work instead.
Well aren't you a commie Obama loving gun hating euro! Now you gonna make me give up my Pickup and make me ride the train with them Illegals and other poor, minorities and them fo-rigners! B-sides that could tie up traffic and them trains make noise! If you want socialist transport move to comie-Urop!
----> That mentality is why we cant get even public transport in this country! I'm ashamed for my fellow countrymen! :(
Well no matter WHAT YOU say - take a look at how people get out of their cars - Los Angeles HAS Mass Transit - Busses, MANY Shuttle Vans, RAIL, and YET - people sit in traffic sometimes for up to 4 HOURS!
So no matter what YOU say, people WILL DRIVE their cars!
Oh and BTW - Hopefully you don't have kids or grandkids, because the SUPPOSED MANDATED REQUIREMENT of both the City AND State - PUBLIC SAFETY! WHY is that PERTINENT? The State cuts SCHOOL BUS ROUTES, the CITY cuts stops and now ROUTES, forcing the kids AND the elderly, our KUPUNA, to WALK FARTHER! Yeah - sure sounds like SAFE to ME - ESPECIALLY when these PREDATORS STALK in BROAD DAYLIGHT and RIGHT OUTSIDE the SCHOOLS, NOT even a BLOCK AWAY! REAL SAFE! So you think if I was a PARENT I would let MY KID to WALK, ESPECIALLY since this rail goes NOWHERE NEAR ANY SCHOOL? THINK ABOUT IT before you SHOOT OFF YOUR MOUTH, or I pray that YOU DON'T have ANY KIDS or GRANDKIDS, or an ELDERLY MOTHER, FATHER, or any other elder relative/Kupuna - OR - YOU BETTER RIDE THE RAIL WITH THEM because I AM NOT going to watch over YOUR OBLIGATIONS! YOUR kid/grandkid/kupuna gets KIDNAPPED, MOLESTED, MURDERED - YOUR FAULT and YOU take the blame for that, as does EVERY ONE that IS PRo Rail! SAFE? BS! Money in POCKET? You BET!
Rail - $250 million per mile. Absolute insanity. Go Ben Go.
Anyone living in Honolulu who knows the actual FACTS of what a big lie, con job and outrageously out of scale project the Sen. Dan Inouye pushed Personal Monument to Danny Warbucks (Inouye) -- will be voting for Gov. Ben Cayetano for Mayor.
Go Ben Go!

Adder, Try a search for robglenn on shirtderbystats. You can see the link for all of his derby entries and a link to the corresponding woot thread. If you really want to pursue this, most of the entries that had any controversy had links in the woot entry thread with 'evidence', showing, or not showing, a pattern of ideas.

Okay... time for me to show off my fancy art school degree: What is being debated here are the similarities between works of art. In some cases a work has the same subject matter, same design elements, but different form. An example of this would be the hoser shirts. They're both using the same concept and visual elements, but they have vastly different forms. Looking at them both from a distance would not make you think they are alike. In other cases you might have the same subject matter and form but have different design elements. An example of this would be a shirt with maple leaves falling from the sky and a shirt with oak leaves falling from the sky. They look similar from a distance, but up close they are visually different. Another case might be where form and design elements are the same, but the subject matter is different. This is the case with the Canadian periodic table and the food/drink periodic table. They look similar up close and at a distance (similar structure, similar fonts, etc.), but they are using different ideas. Are you bored from reading this yet? :-) I have no idea which, if any of the above, would be grounds for rejection on Woot. Maybe some of them are, maybe none of them are. I don't think that all of them are, though.

I think we are literally within one or two points of each other. Which means neither of our shirts will get made, sadly, unless there's a tie ahead of us that we can't see or one of us suddenly picks up enough steam to get into third. I can't take the suspense... I'm going out for groceries.

Here's the weird thing, though: some contractions have multiple meanings. "He'd been there before" and "He'd do the dishes later" translate to he had and he would, respectively. So even as a "y'all" speakin' Texan, I see merit in both versions. Maybe we could compromise with a lolcat "yawl". In any case, GMV darth.

I've been giving this post a lot of thought, and while I still have misgivings about this entry, I am willing to believe that I may have jumped to conclusions. Rob, you have not had a chance to speak about how you came up with this. Just because there was one incident in the past where I believed you used another person's material does not mean you did it this time. I think you would do yourself a big favor to tell how you put this idea together. It would also be a good learning experience for the newer designers. I know that on Iron Chef they practice preparing several dishes in under an hour, and try to make it flexible enough to accomodate various "secret ingredients". Do you have a few ideas waiting for when the theme is revealed? Do you have a portfolio waiting at home? Or do you wait until after it is announced to do research? It would be very interesting to hear about this from other designers as well, but this one is in the fog and quite conspicuous right now.
Re: Ogopogo (Canadian Lake Monster)
Please Note: The following is a complete fabrication. None of it is true, and should be dismissed as such. I just got a response from Woot. They have decided that my shirt could be printed with glow in the dark ink. They don't normally allow this for derby shirts, but felt mine was unique enough of a design to warrant it. I have attached an image of what it might look like in the light and dark, so you can get an idea. Please Vote for OGOPOGO, in order to obtain the first derby shirt with glow in the dark ink. (REMEMBER: This is a outright lie. Thanks)
bluchez wrote: (REMEMBER: This is a outright lie. Thanks)

Re: O Canada! - Sorry that's all I know!
Although I can understand the rejection, I have to voice my concern about the inconsistencies of rejection. The only reason my entry and Cheese's entry look the same is because we both used established sheet music as inspiration for our design. She did a design with sheet music that changed the lyrics of the anthem. Mine completely ignores the lyrics aside from O Canada...as this is the only part that many Americans know. The message that comes across from the two shirts is completely different and as such mine didn't deserve a rejection. There are dozens of similar maple leaf entries, at least 3 stacks of pancakes with syrup, Canadian flag entries whose design and message are nearly identical, and way too many "EH" entries! Yet all of these "similar" designs remain in the derby. I never saw Cheese's entry before doing my designs yesterday. She wrote to me and pointed out the similarity. I apologized in the thread for her design and mentioned that the similarities were unintentional and was probably due to the fact that we both used the same source for the printed sheet music. Although the differences to me were enough to justify keeping my entry in the derby, I did offer to remove it. I think you (Woot) should have simply asked me to remove it given that it hadn't yet met the 24 hour mark. The rejection wasn't necessary. I think if you had looked at the comps for the shirt and judged the overall message/joke in each of the designs separately, you would agree that the only similarity is that we both drew our designs from already established sheet music.

My pancakes have no syrup! Vote for the only syrup-free pancakes, y'all! Seriously, though, if we're rejecting shirts for making different jokes with the same inspiration (in this case, Canada's anthem), then why is a joke based on the periodic table (when other jokes have been made using the same inspiration are all over the web, including several shirts) still in the fog?

As a Clippers fanatic, you are not above skipping family functions to watch Blake Griffin and the rest of the team in action. But the "important, last minute work meeting" excuse can only be used so many times before skepticisms arise from family members on your whereabouts during dinner and kids' dance recitals. Sometimes, you just gotta do what you gotta do to catch some of that hoops action you crave. If that means faking your own death, then so be it. Better yet, scratch that idea. That might be going just a tad overboard. Instead of making up crazy excuses each time a game is on, you can fulfill your LA basketball crave — and keep that family of yours happy — by sporting this Blake Griffin Makaveli tee. Featuring Griffin's name, number and team name printed on the front with a team logo background and a large print of the superstar on back, this tee is a much simpler and less death-defying way of showing your love for your favorite NBA team and player.

Number of dollars spent per week on a girl divided by number of orgasms attained from said girl. For example if you spend $100 dollars week and you came 5 times FROM THE SAME GIRL that SAME week. Your Jizzcost is 20. The lower the Jizzcost the more financially sound your future may be.
Remember: It's similar to P/E Ratio. $$$/# of Orgasms.
Remember: It's similar to P/E Ratio. $$$/# of Orgasms.
"I know she is hot bro, but have you really analyzed your jizzcost with that girl?" Typically, Jizzcost can be very high for married guys. If you are DINKS your Jizzcost goes down but only if you have a joint account.

THE TRAPPING MONTH VOLUME 14 NUMBER 16 DECEMBER 12, 1985 Interior Department, senator thumb noses at FIIP report; BuRec to move in So what if a sovereign nation's wishes are ignored, even though that nation owns most of the resource in question. So what if thousands of tax dollars were spent paying for an 1,800-page report So what if a dozen out-of-state federal employees spent the better part of a year in Montana studying a can of ab sc ei old worms otherwise known as an irrigation project Thafs the message albeit over-dramatized perhaps, received on the Reservation late last month when the federal government pooh-poohed the work of its own experts by agreeing to the transfer of a portion of the Flathead Indian Irrigation Project to the Bureau of Reclamation The move is in direct opposition to the Flathead Tribes' wishes, and goes against the recommendations of a federal, multi-agency study team detailed to the Reservation a year ago to examine all facets of FIIP. In a memo dated November 29, Interior Department Secretary Donald Hodel outlined his intention to ignore the Tribes and the report he had initiated by "directing the Bureau of Reclamation to manage the water release and associated delivery system of this project to meet the needs of irrigation users and other beneficiaries". Montana's Senator John Melcher played a starring role in the transfer. Word has it that he had been stalling confirmation by Congress of half-a- dozen appointees to federal office until the Interior Department fell in with his intention to transfer at least the irrigation part of FIIP to BuRec He's reported as saying the FIIP report had been a waste of time and money. One of the held-up appointments was that of former Cherokee Nation chairman Ross Swimmer, who's been named to replace Ken Smith as assistant secretary of the Interior Department for Indian Affairs. News of the impending transfer was reported to have brought smiles of relief to members of the Joint Board of Control, a committee that represents the interests of non-Indian irrigators who requested such a transfer years ago. At Tribal headquarters in Pablo, the news was met with stony faces. The Council met December 3 to discuss the transfer, but had no comment to make afterwards about how or if the Tribes will officially react to the move Individually, however, some Tribal officials expressed frustration and disgust at the maneuverings in D.C. Chairman Joe Felsman said Melcher (Concludes on page two) Public meeting: Proposed Hellroaring sale A public meeting to explain the proposed 83 million-board-feet Hellroaring timber sale has been scheduled for 7 p.m., Wednesday, December 18, at the Flathead Lake Senior Center in Poison.

As the owner of an Australian Cattle Dog, I appreciate this shirt. If one more person tells me that their Australian Shepherd is "practically the same" as my dog, I'm going to blow their head off. Most of those owners don't even know that the breed originated in the States, not Australia.

Really? People tell you your Australian Cattle Dog is almost the same as the Shepherd??? They are so different! And the cattle dogs are so solid. Pretty sure they'd kick the shepherd's tail if they wanted to. :P My dog is a mutt, but I've often wondered if she has cattle dog somewhere in her. Same kind of stocky, solid build and same kind of ears. The pound, vet, and groomer all thought Akita/Husky was the most likely combo, though.
