Hey now, you stop that!Quote: AxelWolfDid 2F hack GWAE's account or something?
I'd hate to have to invent a Trump type nickname for you.
Wouldn't be Lil Axel, would have to be catchy ;-)
Quote: GWAEEarlier in this thread Eagles were discussed. Today our local Eaglets left the nest. People are sad. I find it strange how birds chase away their young. I guess birds don't like families.
People do much the same thing...a lot of the conflict that arises when a young adult gets to the point they should be moving towards being on their own is caused by the individual's feeling of maturity and not wanting the "old rules" and the parents frustration with the increased questioning of their rules. It isn't as clean as just booting them out in most cases, but it is sort of the same idea...
It is going on in our house right now. He's graduated high school and he knows more than both of us put together...in spite of his mom's masters degree in a science he intends to pursue. He doesn't really want the bills that go along with being on your own but he sure wants the perks!
Just booked a road trip to Minneapolis in Nov. Wtf you going to a cold ass place in november you ask? Paw patrol live baby. My wife has wanted to go to mall of america for ever and now Minneapolis is having paw patrol live so we are making a long weekend out of it. It will be a 12 hour drive each way. Booked 2 nights in 4 points for 3k points each and 2 nights half way for the drive out and back, also for 3k points. Gotta love SPG credit card bonus. That will make 8 nights free with thay credit card bonus.
Obviously now I have to figure out a path of casinos to hit while in the area.

Aye. I found it using the search, but not in "Recent Threads", nor in "General", nor in "off topic".

I would blame it on either the FBI, NSA, or KEWLJ.

He's welcome.
The Chinese have figured out how to make pig manure taste like ground pork and do in fact sell this product in markets. It finds it's way in to the so called "super markets" as well as normal street markets and restaurants.
In Vietnam, in addition to consuming dogs and cats, chickens are raised above fish tanks and needless to say? the fish feed on the chicken manure.
I've lived in Thailand for several years now and miss Las Vegas and Reno and Lake Tahoe more than you can imagine. However, unlike it's neighbors, food is generally fresh and wholesome. Same with Japan and Korea.
Regarding airline safety, it is in fact more dangerous to fly than in the USA but the sky's aren't as busy. Bus accidents are way under reported. People get killed on the highways due to human error in addition to drunken driving more than we can imagine. I've been and driven all over the world and Thailand is the worst I've ever seen. People just don't look before the turn or come onto highways. The reason is they don't care. Everything is for the next life, not this one.
Quote: TwoFeathersATLYou may remember that when GWAE was planning his FL trip, I went to great lengths to emphasize that he should NOT allow his kids to pet the alligators....
He's welcome.
I have a picture of my 2 year old holding an alligator. Maybe I will post it later if I am not too lazy
Except for the diesel fuel and fusel oil in beverages and some fish being caught by pouring insecticide into the water.Quote: NokTangHowever, unlike it's neighbors, food is generally fresh and wholesome.
But ofcourse America had its Bathtub Gin that caused serious neurological problems and death, so why not Thailand... as many tourists have already found out.
It better be a very small alligator ;-)Quote: GWAEI have a picture of my 2 year old holding an alligator. Maybe I will post it later if I am not too lazy
You do realize the NSA knows where you live, right?
AND there 's gonna be another push for the agencies to better ' share ' info.
You need to either buy an appropriate sized Gator, and claim it's a lifelong pet for your kids;
Or figure out how to blame the whole "alligator' thing on your wife.
Been at the lake all day today, so haven't been monitoring the intel.
She may be two steps ahead lof you ;-?
I don't want an encounter with a live one ever.

Yes it was a very small one, baby even. We did a fan boat tour in the everglades. Part of our tickets gave us entrance to their animal sanctury. In this you could pet a full size alligator and hold a baby one. Of course there was a guy there and he said he was trained on what to do if the alligator decided to not be nice.

"If the alligator decides to attack you, I'm trained."
"You hear that, little Jimmy? There's nothing to worry about, this man is trained and will protect you."
"I never said not to worry....you'll probably die....but I am trained."
My friends Dad was one of about eight paratroopers who jumped onto the Island. The wind played havoc, with one landing in the East River and one ending up in Brooklyn.
Of course, Irwin's dead now.
My dad and mom were hunting in Africa years ago (before I was born), I believe in Botswana (or maybe that's where they flew in to). Anyway, long story short, they were with a guide and tracking some animal or herd (Cape Buffalo?)....they're walking and have to cross a river/swamp/whatever. They see a crocodile enter the water and ask the guide something along the lines of "So uhh....you saw that crocodile go into the water, right? What do we do?" To which he responded, "Don't worry, there's plenty more crocs in the water....just keep walking."
How many fingers was he missing?Quote: GWAEYes it was a very small one, baby even. We did a fan boat tour in the everglades. Part of our tickets gave us entrance to their animal sanctury.

Quote: billryanThe pool was completely fenced in. I don't know how he got in but as the gate was closer to him than I was, I jumped the fence.
I don't know how true this is, but I've been told that alligators can climb fences if there's one in the way of where they want to go. I mean, I guess I can believe it; they have huge claws and they're strong as all get-out.
