dead thread?

“bizarre!

what happened?”

“You're in heaven, my son.”

“I guess all pen!s/crotch threads are going elswhere.”

“no one likes a cancery crotch.”

“i hope that "dead thread" is not prophetic!”

“Oh death
Oh death
Won't you spare me over til another year

Well what is this that I can't see
With ice cold hands taking hold of me
Well I am death none can excel
I'll open the door to heaven or hell

Whoa death someone would pray
Could you wait to call me til another day
The children pray the preacher preached
Time and mercy is out of your reach

I'll fix your feet til you can't walk
I'll lock your jaw til you can't talk
I'll close your eyes so you can't see
This very hour come and go with me

In death I come to take the soul
Leave the body and leave it cold
To drop the flesh off of the frame
The earth and worms both have a claim

Oh death
Oh death
Won't you spare me over til another year

My mother came to my bed
Place a cold towel upon my head
My head is warm my feet are cold
Death is a movin upon my soul

Oh death how you're treatin me
You close my eyes so I can't see
Well you're hurtin my body you make me cold
You run my life right out of my soul

Oh death please consider my age
Please don't take me at this stage
My wealth is all at your command
If you'll remove your icy hands

Oh the young the rich or poor
All alike to me you know
No wealth no land no silver or gold
Nothin satisfies my but your soul

Oh death
Oh death
Won't you spare me over til another year
Won't you spare me over til another year
Won't you spare me over til another year

Quote from backpacking couple (Gail & Bob) I met at Glacier NP.”

“Too bad the "cancer" thread was deleted. I had posted all the things I love about Rad on it.”

“really?

you must have used a lot of foul language! ROTFLMAO!!!!”

“okay, that's a good one.

If only Ice Tea could see us now. He would go to sleep with a smile on his face. He always wanted us to get along.”

“let's do this one....

...FOR THE CHILDREN!!!













that line is always a sure-fire way to ruin a good concert.”

“So you have the same problem that Tom TerrifucK has? Oops I meant Tom Greene.

You got cancer cods?”

“When I worked in a truss mill while going through my undergrad, I was in the mill office and requested some time off. The son of the owner was there at the time and inquired as to why I needed time, with a tone of vioce as if I shouldn't take the time off.

So I told him I had these fleshy growths around my rim, and they itch and hurt.

I still I laugh just as hard today as I did when I left the office.”

“I don't get it. You had cancer too? Hemroids?

I thank God for good genes.

Ass like a virgin.
Penis like a Louisville slugger.
and balls like coconuts.”

“When I found out I had cancer,
I had a foreign woman slit my throat.”

“dear rad, my new found friend, did you ever hear the phrase, "that's as funny as cancer". That means cancer is not funny whether in the groin in the form of testicular cancer or prostate cancer.”

“Cancer is the cellular terrorist!”

“I thought that was Cingular?!?”

“Well, I'm glad I desided NOT to creat my, "I Just Got My Period....Leaving TT" thread.

Man I feel so bloated...”

“I think its important to laugh at your problems. If my problems weren't so funny, I'd be miserable.

I've heard jokes that were supposedly told by Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto during the Holocaust. They aren't all funny, but I'm sure the humor helped them get by. I can't help but admire that.”

“Hey Rad, I hope you feel better soon.”

“Oh yeah... feel better Rad. I hope they don't find no more bad spots on ya!”

“one more big trip and some kind of retinal scan (don't tknow what for) and they said that i will go back to 6 month checkups (if the scan is ok). whoo-hoo!!!!

so, does anyone know what the scan is for? i didn't get to ask the person who should know! d'oh!”

“Retinal scan??? Maybe they're trying to find out why you look so bad! (Just kidding, hope everything checks out o.k.)”

“Hey, Rad, didn't you have a go-around with skin cancer, also? I'm hoping that all is working out well for you. Thanks for letting us know. That was big of you.”

“Rad- I had no idea you had cancer in your crotch..

“it is the same deal, dunadan.

“Dang rad, sorry to hear about that. I hope it all gets behind you very soon.

Oops, that would be a bad place as well.

Seriously, I hope it's good news very soon.”

“Actor Who Played Jerry Seinfeld's Dad Dies




Barney Martin was one of three actors who played the part of Jerry's dad on 'Seinfeld.'




LOS ANGELES (March 24) - Barney Martin, a former New York City detective who went into show business and became best known for playing Jerry Seinfeld's father Morty on the comedian's hit television series, has died. He was 82.

Martin died of cancer Monday at his Studio City home, according to his publicist, Jennifer Glassman.

Born March 3, 1923, in the New York City borough of Queens, Martin served as a navigator in the Air Force during World War II before starting a 20-year career as a New York City police detective.

Martin showed a talent for making deputy police commissioners laugh during presentations. In the 1950s, he began writing on the side for comedy shows such as "Name That Tune" and "The Steve Allen Show."

Martin got his start in film when Mel Brooks featured him in "The Producers" in 1968. That role launched Martin into Broadway theater, where he appeared in several musicals, including "South Pacific," "The Fantasticks," All American" and "How Now Dow Jones."



Martin, with Liz Sheridan as Seinfeld's mother, appear in a 2002 Denny's commercial.

He is credited with creating the role of Roxy's unappreciated husband, Amos Hart, in the musical "Chicago."

Martin also appeared in several television series in the 1990s, including "The Tony Randall Show," "US," "Sydney" and "Zorro and Son."

In "Seinfeld," Martin was the third actor to play the part of Seinfeld's father and became the one most identified with the role of the Florida retiree.

He said at the show's wrap party in 1998: "Playing Jerry's dad was like having whipped cream on top of a mountain of ice cream."

He is survived by his wife and son. A daughter died in 2002 of cancer.”

“I guess they'll have to elect a new president at his Florida condo.”

“BowlderGal's car's battery was dead this morning. Really dead. Unfortunately, she had pulled nose first into the driveway, so the battery wasn't very accessible for jumping.

No problem, right? We'll just put that sucker in neutral, push it out into the street, roll it up to the curb and bzzzzz - right?

Of course, in order to shift it into neutral, you have to have the key on and put your foot on the brake. It was so dead, whatever electrical signal that would send to the gear shift thingee (technical term, sorry) to let you shift it wouldn't even work.

So I had to pull my car up next to it, just a little bit on the neighbor's lawn (shhhhh!), and use both sets of jumper cables hooked together (BowlderSon held them to make sure the clamper thingees (another technical term, sorry) didn't touch each other.

A couple o' minutes of charging and varoom!

I suggested she back into her parking space at work today, just in case it doesn't hold the charge (news bulletin - she did make it to work), to make jumping easier.”
