"They refused treatment"?
Report Commentby D R. @ 1:04am - Wed Apr 29th, 2009
Please tell, what's the treatment for a hangover!? That could've been useful info in college.
Good call, D R.

It's like a half step below the Meaning Of Life, and they brashly waved it off.

But seriously, who cares about this flu? I'm already sick of it. Not "swine-flu-sick" of it, more like "hungover-sick" of it.

Make sport of the Danites (Sons of Dan) and you'd be pushing up flowers! Porter Rockwell was one hard azz individual who never hesitated to shoot!

He was however also one of the few judged honest enough to deal directly with the native Indians and not cause trouble for the Church.

Not a Mormon, but fascinated with their defensive principles!

Use a lower case "alpha" to avoid the censors.

If they were traveling to Maryland, perhaps they intended to stagger around Fells Point and urinate in public like the rest of the drunks over there.

Cure for a hangover?

McDonald's cheeseburgers and fries with a valium chaser.

If you eat a candy bar an hour after you stopped drinking, you won't need a cheesburger in the morning.

Cure for a hangover?
Report Commentby Robert M. @ 1:35pm - Wed Apr 29th, 2009
There are several things you can do:

. . Eat a live toad.
. . Kiss a tobacco chewer with a walrus mustache.
. . Go scuba diving in a septic tank.
. . Listen to a politician apologize.

Try any of these things and you will quickly forget about the hangover.

Has anyone here had a fever with a hangover? as many hangovers that I have had I can say that not once have I ever had a fever. They must have been drinking something really interesting.
Drinking Sterno could do that

Drinking Sterno could do that to you, especially if you light the Sterno.

Did you ever notice how pink Mad Dog 20-20 is the same color as Sterno?

Swine flu is a distraction
Report Commentby Reader11722 @ 6:58pm - Wed Apr 29th, 2009
Drunk passengers, swine flu, Paris Hilton, Brittany Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Pitt & Jolie, all distractions. While mainstream media creates illusions, the U.S. gov't steps on our throats by opening our mail, suspending habeas corpus, stealing private lands, banning books like "America Deceived" from Amazon, Wikipedia and Facebook, conducting warrantless wiretaps and starting illegal wars.
Impeach them all and end this madness.
