No, Missions sit you down and make you listen to a bunch of god-bothering. Then they'll let you eat, god-bothering the whole time.

Congrats on surviving the bullet holes, and getting a Master's degree! Getting a second one....you crazy, and I mean that in the best way. What are you studying, then and now?

People where I live, where there is snow every winter, seem to have to re-learn how to drive in snow every single winter. I practice in the parking lot at the school down the street, for the first snow. My main car is a Focus, and it's got terrible torque steer, so I don't have a choice in driving cautiously in the snow, and I even have to watch it if it rains hard. If you know your vehicle, and how it reacts in a given situation, there is no danger in passing someone who is going more slowly than you, but it must be done safely.

I hope Black Friday eventually dies out, because that would mean that MAYBE certain big box stores would close on Thanksgiving, so their employees can be with their family. My sis works at Walmart, and she had to work serving TG dinner to her whole shift. Walmart provided and cooked the turkeys, all the side dishes were catered, and there were a lot of various desserts brought in, too. Every shift got a full blown TG dinner. Either my sister is lucky to have great managers, or Wal-Mart is trying to be nicer to their employees. I'm not unaware that there may be an ulterior motive in this largesse.

I like going to Santa Cruz in October because the hotels are MUCH cheaper then. Fewer tourists(such as myself), also too.

This is very true. I went to Montreal, once.

Isn't the blond in the center the nitwit who thinks cancer is caused by a fungus?

Black Friday is one of the reasons we all think Americans are insane.

NEEDS MOAR CAPS!!11!!!

HEY, I've noticed that YOU have a nasty habit of making sweeping ass-umptions and then regularly saying really awful shit to people who make innocuous (non-) comments here WITHOUT THINKING first because I am guessing you have NO FILTER?

You've TARGETED me more than once and I have let it go EVEN THOUGH IT IS RUDE AND BENEATH THE BENEVOLENT IMAGE YOU HAVE OF YOURSELF.

Letting you know that I won't be letting it go any more. Your vicious approach would at least be consistent if you also didn't LOVE TO PLAY THE VICTIM CARD (passive-aggressive much?) in many of your posts as well.

I'm not sure what you're suffering from but you have my sincere sympathies.

Still, try and be responsible and less MEAN in your posts wouldja, PLEASE? Otherwise you run the risk of coming across as a HATEFUL ANGRY BITTER BUTTHOLE AND I KNOW YOU DON'T THINK OF YOURSELF THAT WAY.

ps Ms. Potentially Dangerous Asshole: Nobody died or crashed or was in the least bit discomfited by my driving in the rain nor did I drive irresponsibly but you wouldn't know that would you? Because you're too busy being Captain Unhinged Opinion Police. How about the next time you feel the need to lecture me you take a deep breath and move. the. fuck. on. instead, okay Happy Cupcake? It's just not that serious.

Also; too, I think its ironic as shit (and still HILARIOUS BUT NOW WITH ALL CAPS!!11!!!1) that the dangerously crazy way many of your neighbors drive down here (not you I am sure) only gets curbed when they fear the rain and the EMBEDDED OIL SURFACING FROM THE ASSFAULT. Otherwise it's Fuckall Death Race 2000.
