Eric Fletcher Waters was two years old when his father, George Henry Waters, was killed in action in WWI. George Roger Waters was five months old when his father, Eric Fletcher Waters, was killed in action in WWII. His body was never recovered.
I want to pound something or someone until I dislocate a knuckle again. And that hurts like a mother fucker.
<sees that E3 is coming up> <sees all the games I'm looking forward to> R.I.P. My Wallet Also, games, we gotta figure out a system because, um, I kind of have a fantasy I'm writing.
Was riding on a tidal wave of emotions, and yesterday was a shit day due to a lot of stress. So I can't do what I did the day before yesterday, without first knowing I have the next day pretty much stress free and have someone to talk to, to bring me back down.
I second this emotion, and raise you two days of deep dark depression. Bad stuff. My PM box is always open @Cave Troll ...and I will not hesitate to provide a phone number for your venting pleasure. Youre a Rock Star.....dont forget it.
Dudes, I'm feelin' y'all right there. The big bad D-word just so totally blows. It steals all your energy. Damn. I got shoulders for bothyouses - don't hesitate...
Unless I'm very much mistaken alcoholic drinks in the UK don't come with a proof reading, only ABV. The 'proof' reading comes from the 1700s, when a liquor's alcohol level had to be proved by mixing it with gunpowder and setting it alight. If the liquid flamed up it was proven. For those of us in the UK, the proof reading is double that of the ABV.
I think I may have painted myself in a specialized corner of difficulty with the title of my new book. Oh well....."If it doesn't fit, you must redact it."
In the US, it's illegal to list the alcohol percentage of beer. The knuckleheads in Congress thought that providing vital consumer information might lead underage drinkers to choose the strongest drinks. I remember those days clearly, 16 years old, hiding under the bleachers, one of my friends has a warm six-pack of MGD which we all turned our noses up at and went home sober because he couldn't be bothered to steal the good stuff from his father's garage... EDIT: Apparently, my memory was faulty and this isn't true.
But not the proof reading? Surely all they need do is half that figure and hey presto! They have their ABV.
Both a useless fact and a confession of sorts: Dean Koontz went and inspired the shit out of me to feature a couple of canine companions. He has his Fur Face, and I have Doglips and Barkley. May they match or best the entertainment value of a mentor.
Nope, liquor lists proof, but beer has no information at all as to how much alcohol is in it. Makes it nice for adults trying to figure out if even a capful of the stuff will put them over .08, or if they can drink it by the bucketful and drive home safely and legally.
Also, Japanese pop singer Ayumi Hamasaki was voted Best Female Jeanist in 2003. No word on whether or not the award came with a pair that wasn't in such bad condition, or at least the money to buy some new ones.
