If you could go back in time and see any band live who would it be? I am torn between early AC/DC with Bon Scott or Black Sabbath 71-72, then again Buddy Holly would have been cool to see.

Speaking of ice cream......... there are so many "flavors" that are unique to or were made in Michigan. I'm curious if anyone is familiar with Vernor's Ginger Ale ( now owned and bottled by Dr. Pepper ) and Sanders Milk Chocolate Hot Fudge Topping? Both great with vanilla ice cream!

No bullshit, I miss 2nice.

foo-foo, a great word that I bet could be found in the urban dictionary. I used foo-foo in this forum thread as well as in my blog. The word is much more pleasing to the ear than other words and merely means fussy.

Okay, okay......

Many moons ago, there were a group of men that objected that the employer afforded the women employees a lounge area in every restroom on every floor. Apparently, the intent of this lounge was to give the women a place to go if they were feeling poorly, but not bad enough to go home. So, the men filed a class action suit, saying that they were "discriminated against" because they were men and to put this all to rest, the company provided the men folk one lounge on the 12th floor of a 22 story building.

Now fast forward to the 21st century and women are given a "nursing" room, an area for nursing mothers to retreat to to express their milk. Do you men feel left out where you work? Do you need an area that is designated just for men? I don't know what would possibly ever be the reason, whether it be a real need or a mental health need..... Ha! Maybe you need a "wanking room", somewhere to go in the middle of the day where you can bust a nut which could put you in the right mindset to work til 5 or 6 pm?

I've downloaded Candy Crush Saga on my phone and I just can't seem to stop playing ( unless, of course, I'm unable to successfully complete a level and I don't buy extra life so my penalty is a "timeout" ). I'm on level 29, I think I saw that there are 257 levels seems like this is going to be a very long game........

In Mexico, etc., a tortilla is a kind of flat bread, usually made from corn (maize). In Spain, a tortilla is an omelette.

I do not like the annoying, generic, boring shade of grey, looks like a crystal ball sitting in a base kinda Uncle Fester-esque avatars that everyone that didn't have an avatar now has.

I'm so tired that I feel like tipping over and falling asleep where I stand.... But I have dye on my hair and 45 minutes of processing left.

I wish I understood bitcoin and the bitcoin phenomenon. Below, is an article that I read and am really confused about how anyone can be taxed on something that isn't real.


• The U.S. government considers bitcoin property, meaning every single purchase made with bitcoin has to be reported on your taxes.
• If you've held those bitcoins for less than a year and sell them, that cash will be taxed as income. If you've held for over a year, it's taxed as a capital gain — which could run 20 percent.
• A bipartisan bill was presented to Congress in September in an effort to create a tax exemption for cryptotransactions under $600.


Whether you've used bitcoin as an investment or as a currency, you owe taxes on it.

As far as Uncle Sam is concerned, bitcoin is not currency. It's property. That means whenever you buy something with bitcoin, it's two transactions, not one. What you're actually doing is selling a property (bitcoin) for a cash value and then using money from that sale to buy a product. So every single purchase you make with bitcoin has to be reported on your taxes.

For many, though, bitcoin is just an investment. If you've held those bitcoins for less than a year and sell them, that cash will be taxed as income. If you've held for more than a year, it's taxed as a capital gain — which could run 20 percent. Adding on transaction and accounting fees could raise costs to 60 percent, as was the case for one early bitcoin adopter.

But here's the problem: Almost no one reports this.

From 2013 to 2015, fewer than 900 people each year reported bitcoin transactions to the IRS. That prompted the IRS in 2014 to label cyrptocurrency as property back and to recently serve a summons to Coinbase. In it, the agency called for the records of over 14,000 users who have "bought, sold, sent or received at least $20,000 worth of bitcoin in a given year."

A federal court narrowed the scope of the summons but ultimately ruled in favor of the IRS. The tax status of those transactions is still unknown.

Moving forward though, there may be some relief. A bipartisan bill, "The Cryptocurrency Tax Fairness Act," was presented to Congress in September. It's seeking to create a tax exemption for cryptotransactions under $600.

Some remain hopeful for amnesty, but it looks like Uncle Sam is still poised to get a decent cut of the bitcoin action.

I noticed an interesting post on a picture posted by disabledmalemodel

He seems to think that disabled people go 10, 15, 20 years or more without physical contact and to add insult to injury, their inability to pay for sex because often, they are on welfare/public assistance. He asks that people support sexual equality for the disabled.

I don't understand what he's seeking, sexual equality, does anyone have an idea?
