Some people just don't get it, they don't get it that they don't get it.

Hey I learned something tonight, I did not even know that there was such a vehicle called a F-250.

Thanks

It only counts Melody, if you also have the requisite bumper sticker that says, "You'll have to pry my gun from my cold dead fingers"... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Hey Ms. Lane: What's NRA stand for (not a knock on actual NRA):

National Right to Affairs
Nobody Remembers Abba
Nevada Rectum Authority
National Rectal Assemblage
Nefarious Relationship Association

Really not that funny but I already had it written before I figured out it was stupid.

Lem,

An F-250 is like an F-150....only bigger!<img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

3/4 ton as opposed to 1/2 ton.

Oh, and it's a diesel!

Does that increase my risk factor? Or does the fact that my H also drives one negate my risk? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

NO........The fact that your H drives one is a risk factor. In my reseracrh protocol after we analyzed all of the data sets and controlled for the XY factor, it was suprising to show that only Males showed the trait that inherited the risk for this subset factor. Interesting nonetheless. It will all be discussed in my discussion section when the paper hits the publications.

Sorry to say. We will need to work on risk factor modification and reduction with you.

Lem...

I drive a Black BMW 325ci Convertible with a license plate that reads, MISS GA(Mr. Wondering came up with that, as I am not that clever with double entendres(sp?)see, I'm not even sure how to spell it...I really do just miss Georgia...LOL) <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

So, how's my risk factor?
