collin powell? what did he do? i really don´t think reconstruction is his game.

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

I should do that.. :(

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

I've never been able to figure out what I call the "WalMart Syndrome." When I go to the grocery store, or pretty much any other store, I run into a wide range of people, but for the most part they're all nice, mostly intelligent, good for a giggle or even a conversation.

When I go to the WalMart, in the same neighborhoods (we have two close to us) I am astounded by the customers. Were they low class trash when they walked in or is there something in the air inside the store that makes them that way? WalMart is the only store where I've had somebody slam into my stationary wheelchair and give me an ugly look as if it was all my fault. I can't let one of my daughters take me there anymore...because she *will* throw a punch and came very close to doing so. Only my muttered "I can't get home if you get arrested" stopped her.

Great prices on household items and cat supplies, but boy...the people are a sideshow.

We don't have the "WalMart Superstore" things down here.

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

OK, I have to ask - what use is a "stationary wheelchair"? Do you not go anywhere in it??

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

My apologies. Badly phrased. I wasn't currently moving in it. It's rather like someone having an automobile accident by hitting a parked car...then blaming the parked car for being there rather than his shitty driving. :)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Morgan,

Unfortunately if you want to take advantage their low 'Rollback' prices, you must be prepared to endure a certain amount of physical and verbal abuse.

Might I suggest Nordstrom's? I am sure they would be most happy to provide someone to assist you, no one swears or pushes, there aren't lines of people arguing over 50 cents at the check out and they even have a nice man playing the piano in the one I have been to. It makes for that perfect shopping ambience. :)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Morgan...( I know it does not apply to you) and I apologise in advance but...a wheelchair story

When we first got a holiday home in Fl , it was near Disney.

We spent every day at the parks and compared to the UK , we could not believe the number of people in Wheelchairs.

We then noticed a couple of things. They managed to get out of them to shop and eat.

Technick esposed the theory "they are just too enormously fucking fat to walk around!!!"

In the UK at that time the only people in Wheelchairs were pretty fucked :(

This led to my theory of always going to the wheelchair area and get one for "poor old auntie"..it is great for carrying shopping and allows you to get better seats for the shows :)

Fortunately Technick and myself have expanded into the role of "too fat to walk around"

;-))))

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Hmmm...and I believe I noticed a Nordstrom on that street we took through San Francisco. :)

Select a nice place for lunch...and we shall *shop*!!!!! :D

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

My servants speak highly of Walmart...

;-)))

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

I remember that trip well.....the first time we saw a person in a wheelchair stand and gingerly stagger to a burger stand we saw the miracle of Disney at work. I remember my brother exclaiming "Hallelujah he can walk....praise the Lord he is cured."

Forget Lourdes...Disney is the true place of spritual healing:)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Oh, I hear you with this story. I *never* expect a wheelchair to be available *anywhere.* (Besides, I couldn't get there from the car, wherever it is.) I've seen perfectly capable people thinking it's just fun to ride the motorized carts at the grocery...leaving some poor elderly person with a cane to just sit on the little bench and wait until the assholes are finished playing bumper carts.

I always check for the placards or license plates on cars in the handicapped spots...and become enraged when they're not there. Just some asshole who decided to use the spot. (A Russian Roulette maneuver, since the fine for that is very high. I live in fear of forgetting to hang the damned placard from the rearview mirror and coming back and finding a ticket.)

I know it doesn't apply to me, Nick, and wouldn't have taken it that way. :)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Ah, OK :)

Nick, everyone knows you grab a wheelchair at all amusement parks. You get the front of the lines, have somewhere to put your bags, etc. :)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

I once double parked for 2 minutes in London and upon my return i got ripped into by someone, so I simply responded..

"Its a Bentley , they are allowed to be parked anywhere.Its included in the price"

;-))))





and you think I'm a dickhead now...????

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

No, Nick. I think you're a dickhead that owned a Bentley. Huge difference. ;)

(Besides, anybody can say "It was two fucking minutes! Shut the hell up!" or whatever Brits say of like ilk. The Bentley line had style.)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

We've got parent and child parking here in the UK, I've got a sweet automatic centre pop ( 4" long, $12 from Snap-on) for putting holes in no-kid-cunts cars. I suggest the disabled become more pro active as well. ;)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Worse line I had done to me...

I had a beautiful Bentley about 10 yrs ago...it was a 1961 Bentley Contential Flying Spur and had like 15k genuine miles on it.

This old bastard slammed his Ford POS into it on the M25 and when we pulled off the road the old git greated me with:

"Don't worry I'm in the Royal Insurance's safe drivers club , lucky it was an old one"

He's probably out of hospital now.

:)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Yeah , yeah...always fuck with a Bentley..

Those rich poofs won't do a thing about it.

;-)))

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

It's mainly the Ford Focus or Astra's that are getting it :D

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Crumpet...could you please translate that into American English? :)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

LOL

Just remembering the look on the faces of a bunch of , I suppose now they are called chav's ( we called then "kev's" then ) when driving through Hastings a bunch started hurling abuse and poofta remarks at us in Bill's old Roller.

So we stopped.

And out got 4 guys , two of whom made "The Gov'nor" look a bit effiminate . LOL

;-)))))

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Hahah!


Morgan is right about the people in Wal-Mart. When it was open 24hrs I would go in the middle of the night just so I wouldn't have to deal with the people. Just isles full of boxes..

It's also like a black hole, you go in there and it's like you're there forever. It doesn't matter if you've gone in for 5 minutes, it feels like you were in there for hours...

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

What I got out of it is that he paid $12.00 for a 4 inch long snap on dildo that he pokes into cars when he gets pissed :blink:

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

It's a tool used by engineers (available at home depot) for putting dots in plate metal for drilling, used on a car skin it leaves sweet little holes that can't be fixed, so it requires the: door, wing, bonnet, trunk, roof to be re-skinned = $$$$ ;)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Oh and it's about the size of a ball point pen :D

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Oh.

I see.

:unsure:

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

automatic centerpunch, sprung loaded and will shatter windows and impact bones with a deft flick of the wrist .. if you were of that mind to use them as such :) Snap-on is a very good choice Trev ..

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Snap-On ????

Oh, sorry, I thought he said Strap-On :unsure:






.

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Having one of those in my possession would just be TOO damn tempting. And I just know I'd get caught, lol.

Morgan, what you're hearing on the radio isn't what Nagin is telling us on the tv. He's encouraging people who live in the less-hit areas, like Algiers, to return. Even though there's no running water, no electricity, and no sewer. Thousands supposedly have already returned to Algiers. Other residents are returning as well, because he's been saying "come on back!" for days now. He even went to the Houston Astrodome and was telling the people there that they could start coming back. *Not* just the "essential" people. Everyone.

Today he changed his tune, though. Got back on tv and said no one else is allowed in, and that everyone who came back now has to evacuate because of Rita. There's already interviews on Yahoo news from Reuters and the AP from people who returned and who say they're not leaving again, that staying and riding out the storm (no matter how bad) will be easier than getting back into the city.

*slams head on wall*

Nagin is saying it would just take 9 inches of rain and 3 feet of surge to overflow the levees again; army corps of engineers officials have *been* saying that no one should be allowed back until the levees are completely fixed. They say the levees are in serious need of repair and the temporary closures will NOT hold, even without a storm. They need to be fixed before they simply collapse again, a storm would just make it quicker.

if that is the case it seems Darwin was right...

Snap-on is the name when it comes to wrecking things. ;)

I have mastered Sim City 4.

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Nagin's having fun playing backtrack today. Time to send the busses back in....

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

Why the hell are you speaking to me? Learn to follow a fucking thread.
I talked about trash in WalMart and whatever the fucking thing Trev was talking about in "Brit Speak." I never said a damned thing about Nagin on the radio.

Damned shame you didn't go back to the last thread in which you made the mistake of talking to me.

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

is it me or trev has this great gift of changing the subject...

how did we end up talking about snapon crap jaja

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

It's an art mate, when something has been done to death, I (and a few others) manage to highjack the thread.

So hows those optics today? everything sweet down at the old canal? ;)

Re: Is Nagin an idiot ? Or just stupid ?
 

yeah man optics good no fuck ups. canal is good same old lots of boats wifes canal on the other hand is closed till december when another minibon makes it in to this world.
