That’s just wrong!

I’m sure it was made with good intentions- just another brick laid on a well worn road ๐ Smacks of either idolatry or profanity to me… but that’s just another opinion. Each to the devil in their own way ๐

That’s just too much…what next, though what an imagination ๐
I can’t believe what some people come up with!
[Comment ID #39436 Quote]
I’m with you Jim. As for me and my house, we will skip this one:)
hmmm….if that will sell, maybe I could start selling pans with my religion on them ……LOL

Got a news flash for you ma’am- *anything* will sell if there’s enough press behind it ๐ Pet Rocks comes readily to mind, as do a few cheap hot sauces I could name.
Jesus pan doesnot get much weirder!!
I saw X-men last weekend. Not too bad. I have had much better cinematic experiences but there have been much much worse! My favorite line came from Juggernaut Very funny stuff
They aren’t christain, hopefully.
Fire cracker is SOLD OUT.
Went and saw X-Men on saterday.. i thought it was very enjoyable.. i really think they did a good job.. but you have to realize this is coming from a huge X-Men “movie” fan… yeah then i saw it on sunday too ๐
X-men was awesome.
So was Over the Hedge.
And to an equal but lesser extent Thank You For Smoking.
Ahhhh, Clockwork Orange…..

Where’d you find things like that Nick. lol
I saw Da Vinci code last nite. It’s really good. I don’t wanna start the big debate on it again tho ๐ ………
Kari and I are going to have a movie marathon weekend. We always end up renting DVD’s and never get to the theatre anymore, so we decided we would hit it hard this weekend. We are planning on seeing Da Vinci, The Break-up, and X-men 3. I will have to let you all know what I think next week.
Also forgot to mention that Bob and I are entered into 6 BBQ Competitions this summer, we are hoping to put a few Trophy’s in the restaurant and win some FUN money.

Go Cheffy! Best of luck to you and Bob. Great way to get exposure for your restaurant. BTW..Do you have a web address for your place?

in U.S dollar amount that is what Matt?
[Comment ID #39724 Quote]
uhh it looks like it is just over 1,000 dollars! 1057.74 ๐
yeah just over $1000 between 6. I dread to see the gas bill. We have been having estimated bills for a while and they have finally read the meter…..so it’s the past three months plus the bits that we haven’t payed on previous bills ๐
rest assured tho…….my collection is going into hiding so it cannot be sold ๐ none of it!!
[Comment ID #39853 Quote]
I was thinking it was one month on one bill. That would be bad! That has got to hurt!!
i thought a 100 dollar electric bill was bad ๐
[Comment ID #39910 Quote]
It is bad! Mine tends to be around 70 but summer is here so I expect 100 now ๐
Nick, I hope this is OK to post.
Do we have anyone from the Twin Cities area up in this joint? I have 4 free tickets to the MasterCraft US Pro Wakeboard Tour on Island Lake in the Minneappolis/St Paul area that I will not be able to attend. The Tour stop is this weekend and the tickets are good for Saturday OR Sunday. These tickets are General Admission but I will also provide the letter that came with the tickets which allows the bearer of the tickets to sit in a reserved area for MasterCraft boat owners. These wakeboard competitions are always a good time and I would love for someone to be able to use these. Email me with your contact info if you are interested.

in the summer our electric bill is almost nothing….in winter holy moly it gets pretty high
was gambit in x3? anyone please, I am dying to know
[Comment ID #40201 Quote]
gAMBIT IS THE GUY WITH THE CARDS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT ISNT HE. eVEN IF THAT ISNT HIM, i DO NOT RECALL A GAMBIT IN THE MOVIE. Oops caps ๐ The Beast was played by Frasier Kelsey grammer.
Didn’t see a ‘Gambit’ though I might not have recognized him if he was there. Didn’t hear the name used either. Didn’t really care for the series as a kid (Green Hornet fan) but have liked the movies. Thought Kelsey Grammer was pretty entertaining in his role.
YES GAMBIT HAD THE CARDS!!!!!!!!!! woooohooooo, he is my fave he is great. Beast is awesome. I am going to see this movie soon. especially since gambit is in it. I loved the comics and the cartoons, and the movies, when i was a teenager we had the role playing game, like Dungeons and dragons, I had a blast playing that.
oops read that wrong, those people re getting a mean old letter from me, he as a huge part of the x-men to not have him in there is just WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you guys thought the jesus pan was bad…..

Ugghhh. Hope it has good insulation or the wearer likes warm beer. I guess it’s going to end up there anyway ๐
[Comment ID #41207 Quote]
Now that’s genius. I agree with Jim though about keeping it cold!
[Comment ID #41214 Quote]
It says “insulated pouch “… “and stays cold for hours!”
[Comment ID #41218 Quote]
Not to mention “The Beerbelly Ice Pack Pleasure Extender ”
Genius I say!
[Comment ID #41218 Quote]
Missed it- only gave it a glance though. Figures they’d have thought of that.
Good morning everyone, it’s a beautiful, sunny, hot, (almost) summer day here in Jersey. Hate to have to waste days like this at work. Hope you all have a great day!

I also thought you were going to call me today…

BTW… The packages I sent arrived safely. (And I got yours today as well, thanx)
Don’t woory about me staying up and breaking your string of last posts, I’m headed to bed soon. Just going to wait and see if you reply
Just give me a call when you get the chance. Bottles, caps etc are all cool. Filling them won’t be a problem either when your ready.
Well I have to reply now, don’t I? Are you busy tomorrow AM to talk? I can call you any time in the AM.
There, you can answer and have the last post…..
Have good night my friend.
Yes, Iv’egot the North Market gig, but call anyway and we’ll se how busy it is. 9-10:30 really isn’t that bad. I know your still there so go ahead.
Jim was at the engine house yesterday, so I know he won’t be in competition tonight.
Oh yeah, G’Night…
