I`ve been watching entirely too much Gordon Ramsay lately...

all my snark has a decidedly British tint to it... at least it does in my head lol

Need to sell my car... 1974 BMW 2002.

Mostly restored/rebuilt. Previous owner put TONS of work into it. I have a file folder full of the work he had done, including complete interior, rebuilt engine with high performance camshaft, ignition, carbs etc. NADA lists at $9900 low, $14,000+ average. Looking to get $7500. Olympia, Washington area. PM for more info. Thanks.

Mariners! No-hit Dodgers in a combined effort.

Millwood left the game early with a pulled groin.

He'll F*** you up...

Broccoli question...

Hi all... so, we have a broccoli plant which currently has one huge (approx 6 inches across) head in the center of it... I was told that popping that off would lead to other heads sprouting on the rest of the plant... is this right?

howdy.. I`m Opie.

or, Rick if you`re nice. I first came to DU back in `03. I`ve had periods where I posted quite regularly, and others where I went months without posting anything. Despite the occasional snark, I really don`t harbor any ill-will for anyone here. My main haunts are atheists/agnostics, mens group, GD and once in a while I`ll post music videos which nobody seems to want to hear in the lounge lol.

Elegant and funny insults....

I could read this all day... some great stuff.

Highland, Speyside, Islay or Campbeltown?

I've just recently begun getting my feet wet in the world of Single-malts. So far, I'm partial to the Speysides. Particularly Aberlour and Balvenie. Any other Scotch fans feel like weighing in?

Who doesn't love a good murder ballad?

On one of our first dates, my wife and I saw a woman do this song a capella at a local open mike...we had never heard it before, so we asked her what it was... then went and bought the CD the next day... stunningly beautiful. From one of the darkest (but most amazing) albums of the 90s.

The coolest cover song ever?
