That, my friends, is a pack rat nest. Its close to impossible to clean out that nest without incurring pricks from cactus needles. The wiring, vacuum lines will be destroyed. The engine bay will need to be cleaned/scrubbed with pine sol to get rid of the urin smell.  The pack rat piss's on the nest. It cements the nest together to deter predators.   The car is in my town, if anyone is interested.  The floors are probaby rotted from rain water collecting in it.

I have never watched, but I understand there's a tv show about human pack rats who treat their homes the same way.

Not to mention the fleas carrying bubonic plague and the disease (histoplasmosis?) you get breathing the dust from the rodent droppings.

Actually it's spores from the mold growing on the feces that will kill you.

I suppose that would be Canadian. (perhaps American too?)
The dry heaves are quite unpleasant and rather painful. Especially when they last for 16 hours.

Not just always eating lunch, but always eating, period. With this shit schedule, I can't sit with my wife like a normal person, so I sit at the computer and read while I eat.

It's not purely by choice, believe me.   :No:

Royal Wedding? Hell no. I've got better things to do with my time.
I hate the royal family and everything they stand for. Monarchies do nothing but suck money out of the common persons wallet.

Keep a stiff upper lip there good chap. I'm off for a cup o tea.

I'm glad all the hype is over. Seems you couldn't turn on the tele to any channel without that crap. I'm with Gareth. That family is sucking the blood out of not only the British, but us too.

Not us.
The royal family doesn't collect any of our tax money anymore.
The only thing we pay for is when they come to visit.

She has nothing to do with the family as a relation. She's there by marriage. She damned sure doesn't repulse me. I think she's gorgeous.
Title: Re: Check
Post by: guidematic on May 02, 2011, 03:23:13 PM

Married in or not. They say she's a "commoner" but has managed to hob nob with upper class for years. Her old man is noveau riche, and she's living that life because of it. But I can't blame her at all.

But the royal family are nothiong but parasites on society, and she married into them.

I have known so many beautiful girls over the years, and I find that more often than not, beauty is only skin deep. So to see a beauty, does not do anything at all for me until I find out what's underneath.

No argument from me there. I've dated plenty of really good looking girls, and you're right, beauty is skin deep.

I'm damned sure not the best looking guy on the planet, but I know how to treat a woman and I know how I want to be treated.

I had a roomate one time whilst in the Navy.  His room looked about like that.  But he didn't piss on the floor to hold the nest together.
