  Ozzie's Weekend Poll #6

  by ozziepost in

  so, you've read the sunday paper, and it's time to 'put your feet up' with another fun poll.. this weekend's topic is:.

  what have you changed since finding out the truth about 'the troof'?.

  1. handed in all my ties to the p.o.. 2. put all my skirts in the charity bin.

  Hey Oz!
  It's taken years to change since I left the Empire.
  One of the items on your list was about doing 'forbidden' things. When I left I was a 20 year old kid. So naturally I just went wild. That was just as much a bad thing as a good thing, looking back on it now.
  Ten years after, I'm only now beginning to feel happy and free. The biggest change has taken the longest. And that one is the most important. To be happy with who I am regardless of what anyone else thinks of me.

  Mike.

  Bush, Brits & Big Mouth Billy Bass.

  a while back, i was stood in front of the window of a local gadget shop totally bemused at the antics of a plastic fish that was mounted on a plaque affixed to the wall.

  every time someone passed by, the fish would wiggle its head and a recorded voice that emanated from the fish would say something incomprehensible.. this was big mouth billy bass!

  a totally non-amusing, pointless and utterly banal creation that is still languishing unsold in the shop today.

  Hello, Englishman! Nice to see a picture of you finally.
  So Bush likes Big Mouth Billy Bass, so what? He also likes "The Osbournes", much to Ozzy's delight. The man's got strange tastes. So what? Who cares? At least he's not getting blowjobs in the Oval Office from some fat golddigger intern.

  I was working at the time for the company that filled the vending machines at Georgia Interstate 75 rest areas. My partner and I were at the machines at the Cook County southbound rest area and this old man comes up and asks for a Dr. Pepper. I fished out a cold one and handed it to him. For some reason he just strikes up a conversation. My partner did most of the talking but I listened. While talking he told us that he was one of the Little Rascals, and told about working with kids in film.
  Dang! I can remember where it was, what I was doing, and the drink he wanted but I can't remember which one he said he was!!! I want to say it was either this guy or the one who played Butch though it kinda feels like he said "Joe".
  Real nice guy though, just adored kids.
  Either way, sorry to see him go.

  Mike.

  wouldn't it be fair to say that early christians were.

  wish to deny that?.

  It's pretty simple. The Empire has all but eliminated Jesus because he had A BEARD and LONG HAIR...
  They really hate that!

  Silentlambs May Save Lives

  the society abandoned its anti-vaccination beliefs, partly.

  because they didn't wish to expend their resources defending.

  such ideas.. this could happen again with the blood transfusion issue.. the exposure of suppressed child sexual abuse within the organization.

  Actually Metatron, I wouldn't complain if Dateline were pre-empted to cover the nuclear annihilation of India and Pakistan. Either the Empire gets it or India and Pakistan get it? Why not all three?
