    holds 20 times it's weight in liquid, look at this, it just does the work.
    Why do you want to work twice as hard? It doesn't drip, doesn't make a mess, ring it out.
    You wash it in the washing machine. Made in Germany, you know the germans always make good stuff.
    You can cut it in half, use one as a bathmat, drain your dishes with the other one, use one as a towel.
    Olympic divers, they use it as a towel- look at that, completely dry.
    Put a wet seater roll it up it dries your sweaters.
    Here's some cola, wine, coffee, cola, pet stains.
    Not only is your damage going to be on top, there's your mildew.
    That is gonna smell, see that.
    Now we're gonna do this in real time, look at this, put it on the spill, turn it over without putting any pressure, 50% of the cola...right there you following me camera guy?
    The other 50% the color starts to come up no other towels' gonna do that.
    It acts like a vacuum, and look at this virtually dry on the bottom.

    Oh, actually all champagne is French, it's named after the region. Otherwise it's sparkling white wine. Americans of course don't recognize the convention, so it becomes that thing of calling all of their sparkling white "champagne", even though by definition they're not.

    For twelve long years,
    I've been in trouble.
    no pleasure here,
    on earth I've found.

    For in this world,
    I'm bound to ramble,
    I have no friends to help me now.

    He has no friends to help him now!

    Wink

    Well, Nuke's scared because his eyelids are jammed and his old man's here. We need a live... is it a live rooster? We need a live rooster to take the curse off Jose's glove and nobody seems to know what to get Millie or Jimmy for their wedding present. Is that about right? We're dealing with a lot of [excrement].

    Okay, well, uh... candlesticks always make a nice gift, and uh, maybe you could find out where she's registered and maybe a place-setting or maybe a silverware pattern. Okay, let's get two! Go get 'em.

    We skipped the light fandango
    turned cartwheels 'cross the floor

    I was feeling kinda seasick
    but the crowd called out for more

    The room was humming harder
    as the ceiling flew away
    When we called out for another drink


    the waiter brought a tray

    I bought a doughnut and they gave me a receipt for the doughnut...I don't need a receipt for the doughnut - I'll just give you money and you give me the doughnut, end of transaction. We don't need to bring ink and paper into this. I can't imagine a scenario in which I would need to prove that I bought a doughnut...Some skeptical friend, don’t even act like I didn't buy a doughnut, I've got the documentation right here...oh wait it's back home in the file...under "D", for doughnut.

    life as an Orioles fan

    There is no pain you are receding
    A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
    You are only coming through in waves.
    Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.

    When I was a child I had a fever
    My hands felt just like two balloons.
    Now I've got that feeling once again
    I can't explain you would not understand
    This is not how I am.
    I have become comfortably numb.

    Wow! I find that really sad, that such a passionate poster such as TonyS, would have such a blase, pessimistic view of the future.

    I don't even feel like thinking of, or searching out, some cool rock lyrics to rebut him.
