Fax and I don't know everything about n00bs. But we did lead the historical n00b revolution.

I know what the no power thing feels like. It's the whole reason I'm having to work on a Saturday night! :cuss:

Goebel's was worse than any of those. (Don't know if they still make it or not.)

True story:

Back around 1984 or so, Bob Dole and a buddy were hanging at the local watering hole and miraculously managed to chat up a couple of ladies. They actually got in the car with us voluntarily and we raced to the closest c-store trying to get in before the 1:30 cut-off. We were flat out broke, but managed to scrounge around and scrape together $1.52, which was enough to purchase a six-pack of canned Goebel's. (In retrospect, Bob Dole is confident that the ladies were really impressed.)

So we head north thinking that we'd hit the old 71-highway bridge (where a lot of us used to congregate before some dipshit jumped off the damned thing and broke his back and the highway department decided to hack down all the trees so the Po-Po could see us) and Bob Dole shouts DRIVER'S PRIVILEGE (which for those too young to remember when "open container" wasn't a ticket, meant that the wingman needed to open a damned beer and hand it over).

Bob Dole took a big drink and it was the most horrid tasting crap that Bob Dole had ever tasted. And that's saying a lot, since Bob Dole had already been drinking for 5 hours or so. Bob Dole heaved the can out the window, then grabbed the remaining 5 and tossed them out too.

You know it's pretty damned bad when you're trying to close the deal on a couple of ladies, you just spent your last $1.52 on a six pack, and the shit STILL ain't worth drinking.

I thought that was my phone number?

AAAHHH..Indeed..thanks for the enlightenment :)

Bob Dole is going to guess that he doesn't care, as long as the carpet matches the drapes.

it's right above that

This story is pointless unless you scored.

Damn. No carpet.

Perhaps you failed to notice to whom you were replying.

ROFL

Great story with a solid moral at the end.

not really required

I know. But it was crazy, we have a backup generator and it blew as well. Its one thing to see houses lose power, but to watch a whole block of only commercial businesses lose power gave me a strange feeling.

Oh yeah. Sorry to here it was all in vain.

wow, just wow
