Um, can we ROFLMAO?

Norwegian BDS?

Norway rocks though, grerat beer, and beautiful women!

*PIMF* grerat=great.

I'm not very good at throwing shoes I guess. President Bush is safe for another day.

may I say F*** OFF to the Norwegians. Thank you, I just did

Is there a player named Malaki that has chance to block the shoe?

So many people are going to live such meaningless lives with no hint of amusement or direction once Bush leaves office and Our Messiah-King is anointed and crowned upon His Heavenly Throne.

Screw the media. All of the MSM. Period. End of story.
Biased, disrespectful asshats...All of them.

I wanna game where I can fling a herring at a Norseman. Got one of those?

Is this fun? Shoe betcha!

I don't know why, but I just don't see why people are so fascinated by this story on either side. Perhaps I just expect folks over there to do crazy stuff sometimes, so I'm not all that shocked when they do.

Will it be as popular if it were throwing shoes at O?

I am not one whit surprised by the infantile amusements that the Left are so fond of.

These punks would be speaking Russian if not for Americans. As they are going, boyfriends now surrender their girls with, "Its Ok" to Muslim rapists. Then run away.

Took me about 20 minutes to download and another 5 to install.

Some days, it feels like the world is made up of a bunch of children.

Michael Savage is currently going off of the Secret Service, saying this incident is the most grievous breakdown in Secret Service history. Golly, I love hyperbole! I think that November 22, 1963 was a bigger breakdown than December 13, 2008. And, to quote Austin Powers, who throws a shoe? Honestly. Since Norway is the birthplace of telemark skiing, I give the shoe-throwing game three thumbs up! I nailed the president on the second try. If this game came from, say, France, I'd be spewing righteous indignation. But the Telemark region of Norway spawned my passion of freeheel skiing, so they get kudos. Now, let's throw shoes at Hamid Karzai.

When someone acts with the ultimate insult - in a knuckle dragging culture that makes up a massive percentage of humanity - they are fascinated and get engaged. One has to haved lived with or studied them extensively to fully comprehend. Physical adults with emotions stuck on 4 to 7.

Seattle has a bad few weeks, gang tit-for-tat, last round in a Mall.

That game probably fits the intellectual level of the average moronic Norwegian socialist that is clicking on it. Some of these people are so stupid and so blinded by their infantile USA hatred that recently the socialists would rather that the Norwegian Govt choose Swedish fighter jets over American, a contract worth a huge sum. Luckily the idiotic Norwegian socialists and terrorist enablers didn't get their way and the contract was awarded to the US.

Toss Lutefisk!

Hear that gagging sound? It's Norwegian-Americans attempting to connect with their heritage.

It happens every year at this time; thousands of people choke down an infamous concoction called lutefisk. What people in America don't know is that most Norwegians came to their senses decades ago and quit eating the stuff.

To make lutefisk, catch yourself a cod. Take out the bones, skin it, salt it, and hang it out to dry for several weeks until it hardens and smells like a dumpster. Then, bring it inside and soak it in lye for several days.

Make Love, Not Lutefisk

Seattle holds hearings on a (declared illegal by the State AG) Gun Ban.

State law allows people with concealed-weapons permits to carry guns in public, except at schools, jails and courthouses, but the mayor wants to go above the state law and make all city facilities gun-free.

No offence Wyatt but why do you need it ice cold? I prefer mine at about 65 degrees.

re: #40 teleskiguy
If that's what Savage thinks, then he clearly DOESN'T think. Not only was Nov 22, 1963 bad as it gets for the USSS, so was the time that guy shot President Reagan (although I do give props to some members of the USSS for their actionst that day - indeed, iirc, one of them literally "took a bullet" for the President.
What the hell is Savage drinking or smoking?

Oddly enough if you try the game it is all about velocity (hatred) nothing about aim. It is really Fitting that any moron can repeat full force hits time after time for this crowd. No other game could survive on the net with this little amount of actual effort/thought from the player. This one will since it feeds their BDS.

re: #67 Steve

As long as you're licensed to carry, you're gold here. And yes, we excel at homicides. I wonder how we can hit 400 every year and not decrease. I mean, there are less people out there now, right?

re: #70 Wyatt Earp

To me chilling a beer actually kills the taste. I like the way Guinness has a strong after taste while I am drinking it. Been that way for about 20 years now. But then Guinness is a stout and not a beer.

re: #53 funky chicken
Ah, there was no USSS when Lincoln was murdered. He'd let Pinkerton - the dude who started the Pinkerton Detective Agency protect him from time to time, but no regular guards around Lincoln. And given that half the country hated him enough to kill him, it's amazing he didn't have some sort of security detail.

Despite how quickly this game got out, it's not very well done. Lots of bugs, fairly poor interface, and far too easy (angle really is all that matters, as long as you have enough power to get it out of your hand). Here I was expecting something at least worthy of ad banners...

Straw purchases. Legal toads buy guns for the scumbags, who shoot people now for looking at them the wrong way. Our State AG is all over it, and he's getting results, but as I always say, you really can't prevent homicides.

The problem is that Savage rarely thinks for more than a few seconds running.

Strictly speaking, homicide is when a human kills another human. Homicide, in and of itself, is not a crime. By that definition, it would not matter what happened legally - someone kills someone else - it is a homicide.

He DID have an Army Major (IIRC) in the booth with him, but John Wilkes Boothe cut him down with a knife, I think!

I thought the army guy was off flirting with a maid or something of that sort - he was not at his post (the door).

The presidential party arrived at Ford's at about 8:30 P.M. Armed with a single shot derringer and a hunting knife, Booth arrived at Ford's at about 9:30 P.M. Joseph Burroughs, a boy who worked at the theater, held his horse in the rear alley. Booth went next door to a saloon for a drink. He entered the front of Ford's Theatre around 10:07 P.M. Slowly he made his way toward the State Box where the Lincolns were sitting with Clara Harris and Henry Rathbone. Lincoln's bodyguard, John Parker of the Metropolitan Police Force, had left his post. At about 10:15 P.M. Booth opened the door to the State Box, shot Lincoln in the back of the head at near point-blank range, and struggled with Rathbone. Booth stabbed Rathbone in the arm and jumped over 11 feet to the stage below. When he hit the floor he snapped the fibula bone in his left leg just above the ankle. Many in the theater thought he yelled "Sic Semper Tyrannis" (Latin for "As Always to Tyrants"). Mrs. Lincoln screamed, Booth flashed his knife at the audience, and he made his way across the stage in front of more than 1,000 people. Everything happened so fast that no one had time to stop him. Booth went out the back door, climbed on his horse, and escaped from the city using the Navy Yard Bridge.

re: #91 Dustyvet

Why would anyone eat that stuff if they did not absolutely have to? Seriously?

Lutefisk is made from air-dried or salted/dried whitefish (normally cod, but ling is also used), prepared with lye, in a sequence of particular treatments. The watering steps of these treatments differ slightly for salted/dried whitefish because of its high salt content. The first treatment is to soak the stockfish in cold water for five to six days (with the water changed daily).

The saturated stockfish is then soaked in an unchanged solution of cold water and lye for an additional two days. The fish will swell during this soaking, attaining an even larger size than in its original (undried) state, while its protein content decreases by more than 50 percent, producing its famous jelly-like consistency. When this treatment is finished, the fish (saturated with lye) has a pH value of 11–12, and is therefore caustic.

To make the fish edible, a final treatment of yet another four to six days of soaking in cold water (also changed daily) is needed. Eventually, the lutefisk is ready to be cooked.

I am out.

I locked my keys in my truck. (Didn't lock myself out of my apartment - just my truck). I called the nearest locksmith, and it was two young Israeli guys. Two years ago, when I moved from next door (apartment flooded), I called local movers: two - wait for it - young Israeli guys. All four of them were cute.

Conversation with one of the locksmiths:
Him: "You're not Jewish, are you?"
Me: "No, I'm Irish Catholic."
Him: "What are you doing in this neighborhood?"
Me" "Hey, we're a regular United Nations here!"

When I took a cab about a year ago, the driver was an Indonesian guy. He wasn't cute, but he was nice.

With all five guys, I ended up giving them direction on where to get help with investing for retirement/a new business (no advice - just direction on where to GET help). What can I say? I'm chatty and helpful.

Now, here comes the point: The next time I hear the downtrodden unemployed of Baltimore whining, I'm going to think of these guys.
