Thought for the day
You know what I miss in the modern era? Well lots of things, but
particularly today - Yodeling. In my youth on a day like today all the transplanted Austrian ski instructors would be echoing yodels off the hills. I guess they never taught their clients yodeling - too busy chanting "bend zee knees." |

I've actually tried to learn - my friends say I sound like a sick donkey. My enemies are less supportive of the effort... |

They couldn't hide in anonymity behind their computers and tell defamatory lies, threaten people's lives, stalk them to their work and licensing agencies, lie to the cops, etc. In short, you despicable freak, they couldn't be as much of an asshole as you have been. |

I guarantee you will make lots of loud, anguished sounds. Practice, practice, practice. |

Isn't that one of the old ski techniques, sort of a combination of Wedln, Availment, and Escarpment, with a bit of the Arlberg technique thrown in for good measure? I tried it once, and nearly dropped my emergency rum flask. Not for me, thankyouverymuch. //Walt |

The only time I ever heard yodeling at a ski area was when the PA speaker background music (Question: why does skiing need background music?) selected by the resort operators included it (accompanied by a clarinet and tuba oompha band). |

Yeah, those sure were the days. Back when Poor Richard was held responsible for his almanac. And when Publius was accountable for the Federalist Papers. Why, I'll bet that your brother sure wishes that you could be held accountable for your actions. Too bad you can't be held accountable for defying a court order. |

When ppppppuuuuussssiiiiieeeeesssss like you would get your ass kicked because if you wanted to be as much of a dickless asshole as you are, you'd have to do so in person. Why, I'll bet that your brother sure wishes that you could be held accountable for your actions. Considering he is dead, you lose the bet. He and I did have a discussion of accountability, though. He ****ed his pants and ran. Just like you would. *Too bad you can't be held accountable for defying a court order. Too bad the people who engaged in a criminal conspiracy that deliberately lied to the cops and committed multiple felony perjuries weren't held responsible. But speaking of accountability, pppppppuuuuuusssssssyyyyyy, you are so terrified of accountability that you didn't show up at Copper. And so stupid, you don't realize that you just proved my point, pppppppppuuuuuuuuusssssssssyyyyyy. What's that name again, pppppppppuuuuuuuussssssyyyyyyy? Didn't see you at DV, either. BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHa |
