Hey Sheldon, here's something funny for you. Last time I was up there going through the border with my bro in law, the border agent asked how many in the car?...it was me, my wife, him and his wife and the baby...so 5 right?..... oh no, my smart azz bro in law looks back at the baby and says "about 4 and a half".... I almost died right there, figuring it was time for a strip search....

I actually have a bunch of those (season 2, 3, & 4) on my TB drive but haven't watched 'em yet. I need to, but never think about it...

Okay, I'm officially creeped out. They had a clown come into the house and painted up one of the girl's faces. Yeah......... Then they went to her room. Now I know why I don't have HBO at home. eeeewwwwww.

I would think you would really enjoy Entourage, I know I do. Let me know what you think, it takes a minute to get into but then...

As far as the clown....I guess you need to keep an open mind????

Well the Cunsus Bureau counts a baby as a .5, dont they? If so, he was technically right!

I think I figured it out. It's 125x125, and the max size is 120x120, so I think it's killing the animation. I'll fix it when I get home.

In the mean time, going back to my old one. This one is a little weird without the animation part.

Thats one of the reasons Ill prolly never cross the border! I would probably go nuts watching them tear into my truck.

Local cops did that to a poor kids car in our parking lot. Took the seats and everything out and left them sitting next to his car afterwards. He came out ready to leave and he sees his crap sittin next to his car! He was pissed and thought someone robbed him. He was even more pissed when he found out the cops did it and didnt put the stuff back into the car when they found NOTHING!

Yep!!! when we used to head up to vancouver for our guys nights, we would all meet at my house, ditch our tool belts, tools, speaker boxes and empty our tool boxes just to avoid this. They were always cool with us, but we must have looked horny or something cause they knew why we were coming up there at 19....

Agreed! I punched him pretty hard for that stunt. Then made him buy lunch after.

I get bored with my Av sometimes. Besides, I got a wild hair to find something that looked like what I felt like in 15* weather. LOL... But don't worry -- the original turbo snail is back.
