I just Youtubed Croppies Lie Down, never having heard it, and it sounds very ballady.  Was expecting something more march-like and kickass.

That could be a function of the fact that the dude singing it was an old coot with a lisp.

I've been to a Shoprite in Parsippany for a first time in a year, and boy, did it change.  It was selling acohol of all kinds right there on the shelves.  Wine, beer, hard liquors, all of it.  It was a bit surreal to have a shelf selling bourbons, and five feet to the left have a shelf selling crayons.  :blink:  There must've been a hell of an ordinance change recently.

So it has entered a civilized era?

Always weird here in Manhattan that Gristedes and Morton Williams have shoprite brand products.

I just had to teach the word "sex" to my kindle fire's autocorrect. WTF?

Dude I've been considering moving up there recently, but the booze plan is to import from Nevada. In bulk.

Those must be a bitch to synchronize.  And I imagine that this goat is going to lose its hearing very quickly and symmetrically.

I'm never goofing on people who always play the lottery anymore, thinking they're pissing away their precious few dollars, since I'm down to the same empty, hollow sense of desperation. :lol:

Two $1 million Power Ball tickets sold in Maryland.  Ugh, *this* close!   :mad:

I quit buying Power Balls when they jacked the price to 2 clams.
