    Thanks for the compliment. I have been working on some projects to support my habit of clowning around here, and also reading the wit and intelligent input of so many others on this forum.

      The display pic you have reminds me of Micheal Moore, alongside the way that you write- are you Micheal Moore in disguise?

        No, I am not Michael Moore in disguise. But it is true that he and I are very similar. I am a big fat capitalistic pig and he is a big fat socialist pig. He made millions capitalizing on socialism, and I have made millions socializing with capitalists. He thinks lazy *******s are entitled to money without working, and I am working to keep lazy *******s from getting my money. The three main things we both have in common are: greed, money and beer.

          Oh, quit lying! :p You are a big time wild game hunter, I know because I am your favorite prey! I'm not complaining, mind you, just like from that fast food jingle/jungle in your case, "I'm lovin it!"

            To tell me to quit lying is like telling me to quit living, just as if I were to tell you to quit breathing so heavily.

            Lying is in my nature, and has made me what I am today. It requires great skill, practice, persistance, and discipline to lie properly. All things come to those who lie in wait and prey.

            In fact, my number one favorite place to lie is on the beach with a beer in my right hand and a wild animal of prey from the urban jungle in the left hand. My second choice would be to lie in a wild jungle with a beer in my left hand and a suburban animal of prey in the right hand.

            But of course in a pinch, I can lie anywhere at anytime with a beer in either hand with any wild game.

          Well, Paul -- I would think that being fat is not helping you in any way shape or form. Perhaps you should set your sites on being a lean, mean capitalist pig and you will find yourself attracting more interesting forms of wildlife to lie around with. I'm suspecting that beer might be not such a good idea - either for the "fat" or for the capitalist image. Champagne may be a better choice.

      There is no need to waste expensive champagne on people who are so primal, tasteless and clumsy that they only make a mess of things.

      Bud Lite in champagne glasses works just fine with the right atmosphere. And it's a helluva lot cheaper.

      Bare skin shines through beer-soaked t-shirts and wet hair glistens in low candlelight flames that dance in seductive symphony with the glowing fireplace embers. Masterly fingers dripping with sensuality slips through beer-slicked hair, and the taming of wild life skillfully into submission with soft whispers and gentle music romancing the soul. The morning dawn brings two (or sometimes more) hearts shared as one lying together in the glow of the sun shining through the window.

      All this on just one quart of beer.

      You see, it is the skillfull application that brings on the satisfaction. Champagne is way over-rated.

      Very few people understand this, but when you've got all the right equipment, you can have a champagne safari on a beer budget.

        Paul,
        Almost sounded perfectly seductive, from the wet hair glistens in candle light glow to the taming of wildlife skillfully with soft whispers and gentle music romancing the soul!

        Let me tell ya where you lost me: The morning dawn brings two...lying together! I'll bring it home from here...face to face, the tamed wildlife turns into a snarling wildcat as the first smell she smells is morning beer breath! This is all because the seducer chose to be CHEAP! He should have spent the extra dough and bought champagne, because then...face to face the tamed wildlife could have remained a purring Lioness with the morning's Champagne breath stirring the memories, and rekindling all the emotions from the night before!

        Pay the extra, it could save your life, its worth it!!

          You two are forcing me to reveal my hands and irresistible charm. With one hand and a little beer, I can tame wild animals. And with the other hand, I can drive tame champagne-chugging prima donnas into wild animals.

          Champagne can indeed be a nice start to a very pleasurable evening, though. But after three or four glasses, I'm sure both of you would be face down on the table. Switching to much cheaper Bud Lite beer (neither of you would never know the difference at this point), and with a few more glasses, you'd be under the table.

          Since I'm 6'3" tall and weigh 296 pounds, (being a big fat capitalistic pig does not necessarily mean that I'm all fat), it would be a simple gesture for me to pour on the charm (and the rest of my beer) all over your bodies. With the lights turned down, and passion turned up, your lithe and beer-soaked bodies would be held with masterfull sensuality within my bear-sized hands.

          Animal instincts within you would become almost uncontrollable, but with gentle caress (as I learned from wild animals on my safaris), we lay together in primal form. The mixed taste of champagne and beer on your lips ignites a fire that quivers hotly within us and is not quenched until the morning breaks, and we all lay together exhausted but smiling. No snarling at all.

          But I can see instinctively that you would be very expensive dates, requiring a bottle of champagne along with the standard quart of Bud Lite.

    When pleasure is found, there is no waste in choice of usage. Beer may sparkle in the glass but it still tastes like beer, still smells the same. Champagne tastes the same as well - whether you are drinking it from a glass or ............
    But then I see you have cleverly avoided the fat issue. But that is a capitol idea for a capitalist, at any rate.

    3 or 4 glasses? LOL - I'm a Cossack. I don't calm with gentle caresses and find primal form IN the snarl. I am not an American domestic. Your idea of seduction/passion is American. Your idea of beer is German. Your idea of what brings
    out primal ferver is silly.
    The only place beer belongs on a body is the hair - it's an incredible shampoo.

    Indy -- help...please come and show this man how to do a Viennese Waltz. Please replace his beer with something Italian..he's too big to be clogging on toes.

    MYOB,
    I'm with Heysal! 3 or 4 glasses...LOL! Try 2 or 3 bottles! By then, the beer wouldn't even tempt me and you are crazy if you think I would not know the difference between the the smell of champagne and beer, beer stinks!!

    Champagne doesn't put me in the mood for seduction, it makes me giggle, so the only wild animal you'd get from me would be the laughing hyena which is a nocturnal, carnivorous quadraped with powerful jaws, strong teeth, and well developed forelimbs that utters laughter like screams!

    So whether it be lying togetther, clogging, or dancing the Viennese Waltze, I would be laughing, screaming and knocking you around with my well developed forelimbs no matter height or weight!

    And if you even so much as laid a bear sized hand on my body, since I am a carnivore, I just might have you for dinner, however I might let that part slide as I wouldn't want to vomit in the morning! LOL!
    Indy, can you even help this self delusional wild game hunter?

      LOL! Sal, you know that I've been happily married for over 30 years. To a real classy lady, too (but if she ever found out that I've been misbehaving like this, she would transform into a she-wolf and shred me into 296 pounds of fresh meat). I really can bring out her wild side, but it would be worse than tangling with a wolverine in Michigan.

      For the record, though, we love to dance (and yes I can still do a decent waltz), we love to party (although my wife calls them "functions"), we love to eat fine food (caviar is overated though, and tastes like salty boogers), we love fine champagne (but beer works best when out with the guys in rip-roaring TV football with the inevitable belching and farting bouts), we love our kids (but glad they finally left home for good), we love our grandkids (but we can always send them back when they get to be a pain), we love the great outdoors (but the 5th wheel is never far away), we love animals (I have a very special affinity for them), and we love life (but perhaps I clown around a bit much).

      It was all just tongue-in cheek, and I am trying very hard to not say that you and MissTerra both have very nice-licking cheeks. Coming from a big fat capitalistic pig with a penchant for pinching words (and occassionally beautiful ladies), that is indeed, however, a compliment of the highest order.

      Having said that which would have been better if it had been left having been unsaid, I extend out both of my trembling hands and ask on bended knee; Would you like to dance with me? Or may I have the honor to get you a drink?

        My dearest Paul,
        I have a question for you...How in the heck do you know what salty boogers taste like? LOL!

        Thank you for the compliment of the highest order!

        And we dance together all the time babe, with our playful conversations, that is!

        And you may get me a Pepsi straight up, on the rocks, if you just drop it off and then scram! :p LOL!
        My greatest admiration, for I love when men have to eat crow and you did it so gracefully,

                        Have you lost all control of your mind to primal, wolverine instinct? Tat is actually short for tattoo, not an adj (adjective) for stat (which is short for stature). And in case you get the wrong idea, "tit" is short for "titilating". Being a man of upstanding stat, short on words, brief excl (exclamations) without any exposed dangling part (participle), with tit verbiage so often taken at face val (value) and so utterly misunderstood. You are taking this entire intercourse the wrong way, in typical wolverine primal reflexive behavior, resulting in a wild regressive and brash s/r (stimulus-response).

                                Well, I am trying very hard to eat my own words, but right now I'm in over my head choking on both feet in my mouth.

                                After extrication of feet from mouth, then comes the putrid digestion of so many unsavory words, and eating crow topped with traditional salty boogers. I have already been through all this before with a dog down the street. Also a cat. In fact, that's how I got my tat ... from the cat. But that was from awhile back.

                                Anyway I know it's hard to stomach, so with particular sensitivity to Dave Patterson's vivid imagery, I won't regurgitate everything here. I realize now that wolverines are way out of my league and would never come near one with my ten foot pole.

    Indy, mon cher, I know literally what you have written but the semantics escape me.

    But - You know I trust you on this one.

    I pointed out the Viennese Waltz because it's speed and intracacy do not allow beer swillers capability to maneuver............and also because the misconception the writer conveys of the word primal and the idea that a female responds to a drunken pat on the head - are common thought processes throughout the male community in America.

    He speaks of primal and curling up and purring like kitty cats in the same tone. It is a sad man who seeks to cull primal in order to achieve domesticity. It almost makes one sorry.......but I don't believe in mercy teaching.........have the floor at your wish, mon cher.

    LMAO Paul - Had I not known it was all banter and fun, you know my answers would have been much different....you've been here long enough to realize that.
    Actually - I can tell your marriage is a good one - it takes a happy household for a man to retain the humor that you show. A bit of play isn't a worry to me....I've never been accused of asking someone to play misty for me. I won't be confused about you losing control if we should ever meet face to face. Hahahahahaha.

    All harmless - all good. I'd not insult you the way I do if I thought there were feelings to be needlessly hurt, I'd not play if I thought doorbells were to follow suit. I'm not out to kill the capitalist pigs.........although my feelings that politicians and corporate execs deserve their own display in a zoo are very real. Not against money......against people who make it by hurting others. I like to see a difference between those in society and the average street thug con artist. And lastly, although it may not seem clear sometimes, I'm not even against men for the most part although I wonder what the hell most of their mommies taught them.

      I know those *******s well, only because unfortunately in my business I must deal with the likes of them everyday. They are nothing but semen hoses trying to pass themselves off as being "men" through braggadocio and phallic symbols of money and power. Even Henry Kissinger once said that "Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac."

      There is nothing you can do about this attitude. But the best weapon is humor. Don't ever lose that. For me, it is the very spice of life to strip the high-minded into their bare glory of nakedness and see what they've really got. Quite often those with the smartly-fitted suits, stiff collars and crisp ties present another image when dressed down with well-handed humor. Seeing through the facade of power with the eyes of humor reveals a hairy ass with cling-ons, lint-filled bellybutton, spotted underwear, a manhood that is limp, crusty and wrinkled, and other signs that you should just get away fast.

      Being a very big man myself (in many big ways), I make no bones about the fact that some of those little guys (who are little in many little ways) just cannot control themselves and are very premature. But on the face of it, it seems to me that you can control them handily with your biting sense of humor. There is an inner grace and beauty about you, which I can't really put my finger on, but someday it will be touched by a real gentleman.


      Hope that helps, belle ami (did I say that right?)

    Well, gee, Paul.....you have it easy. You are only subjected to business lunches. Try having the jerks try to pick you up every time you go out to have a glass of asti with your friends. Now there's a real thrill trying to keep fine asti down while listening to that tripe. The searing wit does me well in those situations - cuts that power lust off right at the all too large belt loops.
    I don't think I'll lose it -- it's a characteristic that is well lubed. Trust me on that one. A bladed tongue saves me from needing to carry one sheathed.

    Indy - your location at the other side of the pond is giving you no advantage in timing. You should come across the pond for a tad and experience time the way we do. Of course, mind you before you decide - House of Stewart over here won't mean much other than "Ho wow, dude, you're like Martha's cousin or uncle or what, dude". LMAO

    Um....Asti is a good bribe. It was the UofM drink while I was there. You never saw the bottle pass while watching Wolverine football on tv? It's probably illegal now but was a very large part of the school game ethos back in the late 70's early 80's.

    We're not dangerous Paul - but consider that a wolverine is more an Easterner than a Westerner.......unless they move West that is. Californians are some pretty strange animals in and of themselves you know.....especially city and condo dwellers. They are strange no matter what state they are from.

      I went to USC from 1970-1974, then went for my MBA there from 1976-1979.
      Everytime we went to the Rose Bowl with you, the Wolverines got sacked.
      UCLA whopped their weeny little asses too, and USC whopped them again in
      1990, 2004 and 2007 with only a lucky break in 1989. Wassup with that?

    1948 - U of M wiped USc 49 - 0, too.

    As far as 2007 -- it was money that took that one. The game was a sham. The ball was taken out of USC's hand BEFORE they crossed the line. The umpires huddled over the call and there was some very angry outcome and backlash over that sham. I'm just wondering who had the deciding money on that one.

    U of M has the most all-time wins and the highest winning percentage in NCAA Division I-A history.The Wolverines are members of the Big Ten Conference and have won or shared 42 league titles, more than any other football program in any conference. Since the inception of the AP Poll in 1936, Michigan has finished in the top 10 a record 37 times.

    Just exactly what their problem is against USC in Rosebowls I have no problem - they don't have as bad a record with seasonal games against them as rosebowl records. And they are not an easy team usually (although some years are better than others).

    Your guess is as good as mine, but the team has a strong track record, despite. Maybe they just get cocky - maybe they don't always want it bad enough. And maybe they need to start letting players into school for their football ability and quit insisting on Academics.

      The Wolverines should of course be recognized as being the number 1 bar none as having the highest percentage of college football wins and most overall wins ever in history. It is a well-deserved honor. The USC Trojans come in ranking at number 7 percentage and overall wins.

      But, (you know there is always going to be a but that somehow always slips in) the winning chances are very dismal for Wolverines when coming up against Trojans. They usually get whopped and sent home packing with their tails between their legs.

      Um... It was not a misspelling; as I never have misspelled anything in my whole life, except maybe the odd French word or two. Butt, David Brown was spelled perfectly correct. There was just merely a case of mistaken identity.

      David Brown was actually the author of "Leonardo Da Vinci: Origins of a Genius", (vintage 1998), which explores the developmental processes that culminated from the early years into the creative genius of Da Vinci. Dan Brown (no relation), wrote the assailed "The Da Vinci Code". As far as I know, neither David Brown nor Dan Brown ever had a drink of Asti, but there is some evidence of its influence when Toby Clements wrote "The Asti Spumante Code". However, it had no effect whatsover on his spelling, contrary to others who drink too much Asti.

        Um yep, you're getting old, your bridging assumptions aren't clearing shore on one side. I didn't say you misspelled - I said you bitch at me for spelling.......and what I meant is you harp on trivia when your own mistakes are quite impressive. LOL.

        Considering both Dan and David were studying at least parts of the same subject........a subject which more than likely took them each to Italy at one point in time, I think it would be safe to assume if either were not tea-totalers that they would have at least had a taste of the Tosti, being that it is the home of the drink and it's quite popular in its home country as well as in the States.

        Dan and David might also have found themselves acting as if they were related if ever in circumstance to be imbibing together....... and the spelling wouldn't have mattered - that is what editors and critics are for.

          I have never really been good with names, even in my youth. But when I was in fourth grade, I was the school spelling bee champion for three years in a row.

          So I'm not bitching at you for misspelling, per se. As a gentleman and a scholar, I have often noted that one's grammar and spelling are a reflection on the soundness of said one's research and facts.

          Careless spelling and grammar correlates with careless factual information. Your careless assumption that David Brown and Dan Brown were either related, acquaintances and/or imbibers specifically of Tosti all based solely on their assumed commonality of sojourning to Italy is most startling. The wildest supposition from the facts does not support this conclusion. Your world spins around Asti, and it soberly explains all of your misspellings, slurs in grammar, and non-sequitur logic.

          Dan Brown traveled the world in researching his book "The DaVinci Code", and may just as likely be assumed that as he stopped at many different ports for research and arrayed refreshments, it all finally culminated in a stupor while writing among fellow drunken sailors. Any remote allusion to the specificity of Tosti has never reached literaria.

          Nor is there any evidence of David Brown ever even stepping out of the National Museum of New York for a drink much less visiting Italy while researching and writing his masterpiece "Leonardo Da Vinci: Origins of a Genius". It is a highly acclaimed opus magnum of the genius' early development.

          Now we come to Toby Clements, author of "The Asti Spumante Code". Therein is much familiarity with the drink in question, and a strong case or more can be made for his sparkling insight into the fallability of "The DaVinci Code" as was so much inspired by so much imbibing.

          But, both spelling and the facts really do matter; they matter alot, no matter how so trivial you think them to be. And this is not bitching, nor harping on trivia. As case in point; there were several misspelled words and grammatical errors in "The DaVinci Code", so the correlation with spelling and grammar to factual error is very high.

          In this tri-tease (or more properly - treatise) I am only trying to elevate you to a higher standard of responsibility, accuracy, and factual representation for which you may not be accustomed. Butt don't take it the wrong way.

          Just being anal.

    Gee Paul I really appreciate the sociolinguistics 101 review of the importance of spelling. I guess I have just become arrogant enough to perhaps have figured it was a tad bit okay to eschew some of the more fine literary intricacies of the language in a thread which rests on the pivotal theme of Asti...while also eschewing research about two authors who delved into similar subject matter and who may also hold similar real names. Although I believe one may have actually adopted the name during the course of becoming an author it was rather careless of me to forgo the proper research before indulging in mindless jocularity which may have been resultantly juxtaposed and caused injury when reader's necks were wrenched in like manner to that of the RCA dog. It was extremely crass of me, to say the least.

    It is indeed a fact that I mistook the weight of the matter, which shows it to be of massive gravity, and I had just treated it like a different matter with no weight altogether, which would render it anti-matter and fully realize I could have imploded the forum. It did not do so.

    I therefore can state with all assurity that the Halderon Collider is safe for use on this planet.

      That is much, much better, Sal. Very impressive. Your authorative style enhanced by impeccable spelling raises your credibility to new heights. Extensive research in the juxtaposition of weighty matters with light matter has been proven to be effectively achieved through a common vector of jocular obfuscation. What really matters is the transposition of matter and gravity with energy and time, which means the evocation of a sense of wonder for some, and leaving others in a sense of wonder of what this means.

      However, in view of your esteemed status achieved through euphony of the abstruse and jocular obfuscation, my objurgation of your spelling prowess is hereby absolved. One question, however, remains. Is the Halderon Collider safe for use on other planets? Aliens from the Galactic Federation Local Group are concerned that your certification is only for Earth. Your assurance carries a lot of weight in a matter of such gravity.

      Actually 4th grade was the best five years of my life. It was the math that held me back.
      The last three years was when I had my spelling bee championships after finally beating
      Mary Beth, hands down. She was a whiz at math, especially in multiplication, and I
      learned a lot from her, mostly with my hands down her. She went on to 5th grade after
      three years, though, which left me alone with all the little kids. (None of them mine)

      Luckily, the teacher noticed all my prurient interests and moved me on to the ninth grade.
      But even now, that was a time of my most fondling memories, and I have never lost that
      child-like wonder and sense of curiosity engendered so long ago. The sum of all those
      experiences, minus the pain of premature withdrawal, has multiplied the joys manifold of
      friends so long divided. The words may be forgotten, but that unforgettable winning spirit
      of the spelling bee championships will always be the real reason for my incessant swagger
      and broad, bright smile. Most people, however, think I've just been drinking too much Asti.
