  1. Brother and Ace you are right I can rise above this! I have an idea. What if we cross a tiger with the lion. Then we will have a liger and ligers are awesome!

    Hmmm maybe in addition to a tiger we should add some pony. Everything is better with added pony.

    Oh and I saw this comic yesterday and it made me laugh really hard… because I’m a bad bad person.

  2. Del’s back with her krazy-bio-kemikal-hybridologisms!

    That’s more like it, mi’ gel.

    Ligers are, indeed, awesome.

    Or should that be ‘*pawsome*?

    I’ll get mi’ coat…

  3. To go off-topic for a moment (not that it should be a problem here): tomorrow is the six year anniversary of this post (now with the most). Where’s the party going to be?

  4. Bro Mu, with scuba gear there are no worries.

    Need to figure out how to keep the cake dry on the trip down. I think the underwater pressure will crush the plastic cake dome. Plus, I’m not sure if it’s waterproof.

  5. Which undersea dome are we talking about? The one I like is the one east of Bermuda under the Sargasso Sea, and it was never flooded. Besides Everclear hot tubs, it has great views of the failed underwater theme park that Walt Disney was working on in 1965. Amongst the ruins, you can still see skeletons of some of the work crews that didn’t make it out when things went wrong. The trouble with that dome is that it doesn’t smell very good after the iPrairie dog infestations a couple of years ago. Needs some of those little pine-tree air fresheners, or activated charcoal.

  6. Oooh a visit to the everclear hot tubs sounds like a plan!

    The charcoal running around is a bad idea. Once they are on fire it can get a bit….. toasty.

  7. BroMu,
    The Cousins are silent, amazed by our ability to laugh off 44 mile an hour winds.

    What are the chances of them coming back into the Commonwealth along with the Tunnels?

  8. I’ll be glad to emigrate to the other side of the Atlantic, if you will arrange a salary and sufficient health care coverage to keep me alive for the duration.

    And an occasional bridie with something to wash it down with.

  9. Not only ith it Talk Like a Pirate with a Lithp Day, it ith altho Walk Like a Pirate with a Peg Leg Day, and I be limpin’ and lithpin’ up a thtorm!

  10. As evidenced by the comments directed to random posts about the place. I’m scared and don’t want to check; is it the Russian druggies again?

    The pirateness seems to have worn off, or I’d say let’s broadside ’em!

  11. Why do we want to throw broads at their side? I’m feeling like maybe I should protect myself with kittens for my own safety.

  12. Puppies are better, Del. It’s the puppy-fat (for cushioning).

    Or perhaps you could knock yourself up some puttens in your lab?

    Or kippies?

    Whatever takes your fancy.

  13. Brother Mugga: “knock yourself up”?

    These advances in genetic engineering are ushering in a strange new world. Say hello to Mini-Me.

  14. I just hope you don’t mean that in the ‘Northern’ sense of ‘knock [insert choice target here] up’, Ace.

    Far too much information.

  15. We in the States have our own enclaves teeming with hooligans and ruffians, but have found that electing them to Congress helps keep them off the streets.

    Though they probably did less damage on the streets…

  16. Del,
    Have you fitted your magnifying jellyfish with wings?

    Yesterday, BroMu ‘hood, recorded the hottest October day since records have been kept.

  17. I know: we’re so proud.

    Gravesend: Hotter than Hell and Loving It.

    Although I am quite jealous of Steve’s pugilising public servants. Where can I get me one of those?

  18. BroMu,

    That story gets even better: Mr. Street was mayor of Philadelphia (1999-2007) and had his office bugged by the FBI. Too bad the key witness died (natural causes) before charges could be brought. Not that the witness would’ve spoken; he would’ve been the good consigliere, kept quiet, and served his time. Then been rewarded with fat city contracts afterwards.

  19. Various corruption charges. Generally known as “pay for play.” Or, here in Philadelphia, “business as usual.” It would be laughable if it weren’t true.

  20. Classy.

    I did note that Mr. Street(wise) had built on his experience to become mayor.

    But I’m confused, Steve – the tone of your posts suggests you think politicians are in some way . . . corrupt?

    How very dare you. Smashing people. Always looking after the long-term interests of constituents and country. Won’t here a word said against them.

    Next you’ll be suggesting that Mr. Street lived in a lifestyle far beyond his salary with no visible means of support . . . and then fell out of government into any number of advisor roles with companies that had boomed during his tenure.

    Really, such cynicism. I thought better of you.

  21. So disgusting, suggesting that these worthy citizens who give up so much of their time, to improve the life of their fellow citizens. Excuse me, that’s the phone………………….Sorry, that was my solicitor advocate with further news about the judicial review against the local council.

  22. BroMu,

    It was more enjoyable when Mr. Street collected a paycheck for a no-show job at the law firm I first worked at here in Philly whilst he was running for mayor in 1999. He had a large office which he never visited.

    That firm’s Christmas parties were entertaining, merely for the “who’s who” list of people flowing through the room.

  23. Our cousins across the pond might be sleeping at the moment, but I still think they knew.

    Thanks Steve. I don’t think we’ve got anything snarky today. Which is saying quite a bit for this lot.
