It looks... like maybe something I'd pass on :P
Odd that Polar in Worchester still bottles it - and I've never seen it locally here (an hour or so away from Worchester). Seems they have lots of flavors - were they all tough to swallow?
Of course, it's liquid....oh wait, you said pass ON. Nevermind, then.Quote:

If nightstand is of polar bare,
Then wrath of wife does SZ bear.
So daily polling polar bare,
Or like a polar bear you bear.
Sure, you have to add a not at the end:Quote:

Don't believe everything Niya writes. As far as me not being here all the time it is because I am working on a number of simultaneous projects so I am a very busy man at the moment.Quote:
At this point, I have concluded that you are either a fraud (as Niya believes), or 'not all there' in some way.
Good luck with that approach but I very much doubt that it will work. =)Quote:
I've had enough of it, though. So, unless Bambi wants to talk about who they are, I will henceforth simply ignore everything he/she says.
At least your eyeballs are getting a work out. =)Quote:

I couldn't think of a pun about polar bears, so I had to come up with a little rhyme.
Me neither.
If not nightly polarized
Peaceful slumber be vaporized
Like polar nodes opposed
polar bound I am disposed
My wife was impressed - up to now I was to only one writing her poems.
That is true at the moment I like the hit cat.Quote:

Good thing I didn't say anything naughty. Seems like there ought to be some punctuation in there to make it grammatical, but I think that would actually be wrong.
Not so much a fraud as a troll. Frauds are usually looking for some kind of tangible advantage but trolls are just looking for entertainment.Quote:

Well, I wasn't thinking of a con. When it comes to frauds, they are seeking some kind of tangible advantage, but the average observer may never understand what advantage the fraud is seeking. We generally think of monetary advantage, but there are lots of frauds where it just isn't clear what the point is.Quote:

They gave her a couple hundred bucks, which she tried very very hard to refuse, and she left. Later on, we found out that all her kids were fine and pretty nearly everything she had told us was a lie. She also had a couple arrest warrants out for other scams. The thing is: She tried as hard as she plausibly could to refuse any money, and only took it when the other crew members really gave her no choice. She clearly wasn't after money (and why would she be, considering how dry that well was?), so what was the whole fraud about? We speculated that we were actually being set up as an alibi for some kind of insurance scam that she was running, or something like that, but she vanished and nobody ever found out what the plan was. It may have been as simple as that she didn't want to work more than three days a week and just wanted an excuse for a series of four day weekends. Who knows.

And thinking...."d'accordian"
Huh? Niya said he thought I was trolling not conning you Sharky. I maintain that I prefer to shoot fish rather than use lures including flies or baits as there is something really icky about using them.Quote:

I was going to make some derogatory comment about the accordian, since making fun of them is something of a sport, but I work with a guy who plays accordian and is pretty good. So, I passed on the obvious response.
In the ocean, in a river or stream, in a barrel, and sometimes even in swimming pools. In the case of big fish that don't surface very often I have to get in the water and hunt them using a speargun with the fishing line tied to a float on the surface which can be quite a rush and very entertaining. =)Quote:
