Bud Light Presents Real Men of Genius (Hawaiian Style)
(Real Men of Genius)

Today we salute you, Mr. Moped Souper Upper.
(Mr. Moped Souper Upper)
Any tourist can rent a crummy bicycle with an engine, but only you have the moxy to put a V-twin on it and fly up Diamond Head without a helmet.
(YEAH!)
Is that a volcano erupting? No, it's just your muffler.
(Mine's louder than yours)
You take an under-powered piece of junk and turn it into an over-powered piece of junk.
(Get my motor running)
So crack open an ice cold Bud Light, O' Maestro of the Motorbike. We'd sing your praises, but with that muffler, you couldn't hear us.
(Mr. Moped Souper Upper)

Okay, that? Was brilliant.

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day

Working as a cashier I sooooooooo HATE with a passion when Guests aka customers dunno HT wait their turn when they need to ask a question and YOURE thee one to ask. I am ringing up someone and my attention is focused on them...
Someone comes by or asks me a question and expecting a answer in return.
Nice guy me I will respond with a YES or a NO....
IF they don't get it they insist that my attention to the person I am still ringing should be shifted to them!


I get asked a lot to hold PAID items being that I work in Lawn & Garden so that they can get da CAH so they can pu in sai their stuff....

Well this particular guest/customer sends their daughter in and she's keeps goin to me..
EXCUSE ME I WAS WONDERING IF YOU CAN HELP ME......
yes I will be with you in a second... I am helping this guest and when I am done......
EXCUSE ME I WAS WONDERING....
(irratated) When I am done with this guest (pointing to the person I am with)

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day

I hate the light (or lack) of winds tonight. To make it worse, there were termites hovering around the lights and I got attacked by them.

Dear Adrain, Termites do not attack Humans! Termites are BLIND. Termites fly towards light because of the heat. It may seem they are attacking you because they fly blind. You may have a few land on you but not the whole swarm.

I got the above information from an Expert!

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day

I put a pan of water under a light. The termites went for the reflection of the light bulb and dove right in ............

I do this every year around swarming time.

Hopefully tomorrow won't be as bad, or else someone will be grumpy.

(oh, and the cart mule was fixed, but it now has to be controlled manually - which means slow speeds but atleast we're not suffering) (for the record, it took a little over 8 weeks to get it fixed)

8 HOURS LABOUR

Since when does a man go into labor?

Nah, nah - he's spending eight hours a day as a member of the ruling parliamentary party in the U.K. Probably in preparation for Tony Blair's departure.

Re: Pet Peeve of the Day

Oh and nikki I think that amount is for their Standard package isn't it. Basic only covers the over the air broadcast channels.

I believe basic cable service is like $11.82 a month + tax ($10.35 if you live on the Big Island).

Nah, manja (Indian glass coated kite flying line). Cuts cleaner and quicker, goes through bone and has proven itself several times over, albeit accidental.

Make sure it's tight so the cut is fast and humane...nah make it loose and let em suffer longer
