Other than the whole "not being in love with Pantsy (yet)" thing she's pretty much perfect.

And possible a large body of water and also some lad in between y'all.

Nah, the not being in love with Pantsy (yet) is the only part I'm concerned with. Everything else works itself out.

What about the fact that she was asked out on a date a few weeks ago?

After not wearing a watch for about 15 years, I recently started sporting one from time to time. Several times, I've caught myself reaching for my phone to check the time, sometimes with my watch-hand. Old habits, blah blah blah

You guys get too caught up in semantics. You've got to think bigger picture.

I stopped wearing a watch when I moved to Hawaii, man.

All right...

Who's buying first round?

I will NOT be referred to simply as "some lad".

Now I gotta ask if you're getting yourself an Apple Watch.

never man.

I stopped trying to see how fast I could go down the hill path at Theodore Wirth Park because it is woods on one side of the path and I see deer there all of the time. Got thinking about what I would do if I was going over 20 mph and hit a deer. Ack. I bike slower down that hill now.

I'll take the first round. It's those later rounds that'll get ya

 

[cyhiphopp]

never man.

Ok good. I've never been an Apple suck up personally. I have no idea why someone would spend 10K on a frickin watch that can do things your smart phone does.

I haven't worn a watch for quite a while. I do have a Fitbit on my watch hand right now though and a few times I have looked at it like it was a watch with the time on it.

I've considered getting one of the new Fitbits with a watch built in.

I just spent way too much time watching this gif

It's like a Serengeti drive-by

Ladies, you're all in better shape than me, plus I have an arthritic knee, yet all I do is a knee stretch for 30 seconds before running and I'm fine. Are you sure you don't just run with really bad posture?

Is stretching really necessary at all when you time your runs with a calendar, Pants?

That cut was deep, Velo.

Second person I fired at this job was a no-call/no-show. Been with the company for 10 years and was a manager at one point. Asked him why he didn't return any of our phone calls and his response was "it's never been a big deal before."

******* Hawaii, man.

We had a guy who called in sick for work years ago. When his manager asked him what was wrong he said it was a vision problem; he couldn't see coming to work on such a beautiful day. The manager laughed so hard he let him slide.

Some companies are afraid to because they don't want to lose the unemployment case. My last company was like that. I've never lost an unemployment case, though.

I said the same thing for a long time until one time I got an ******* judge and it was apparent in the first 5 minutes that we never had a chance. My supervisor started an answer to a question with "I believe..." and the judge snapped at him and said that he didn't want to hear what he believed, he wanted to hear what he knew and then didn't let him answer at all. Next he turned to the former employee and asked why she had missed so much work with no leave available. She gave him a sob story about her terrible periods and how she had to miss work. He proceeded to go through the calendar of dates she had to miss and ask if this was her period; if that was her period, etc. She would respond,"It could have been; Maybe; etc." so he would mark it excused. If that wasn't bad enough, they had it logged so she had a period about every other week for eight months straight. I really wanted walk out on that one right after it started, but you never know what they will do to you on the next one.

I'm surprised she didn't bleed to death.

(Sorry, not trying to be insensitive to the ladies in the house.)

Was she calling in sick for a painful period every time?
