Stuka Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 I believe "embiggins" was a term used in an episode of The Simpsons, at least we now know the peak of Seanachai's TV veiwing capabilities 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In short, if she learns it from someone other than you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeo Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Nidan1; Let me know when you want to send a turn so I can still spank your Yankee Monkey's back out of the city they seem so willful to enter. It's like a teenage date, there's so much desire for "entry" and "conquest." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are truly out standing in your field. That farm report is awful fascinating of late.I personally could care less about beef futures, but corn prices are fluctuating something mighty, and you never know when you might catch a 20 cent break on 5000 bushels of September delivery. Soy perked up a bit in the river trade today as well. It's likely to do so in the future, considering the impulse of some farmers to move to a 2:1 corn/bean rotation to cash in on the ethanol boom. Stay away from rye and sugar beets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalem Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I am about to lose to Boo. Although he is writhing in the grip of my superior play, my Green and Conscript kindertruppen are clearly no match for the limitless perfidies of his pommie wretches. Plus I think he put steroids in their tea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
