Years ago Pfizer offered the Cash family big buckos to use that song in a Preparation H commercial. They said no.

So did you apply?Got my daily email for flying gig postings and saw this gem
WOW.!!
Not sure on the Neutered part, but Donatello was always my favorite because he was smart/level-headed. Leonardo was kill-joy. Michelangelo was a class clown. Rafael was a hot head.WOW.!!
Teenage Ninja Neutered Turtles.!!
A friends young brother had a slight speech impediment as a child and when he said mutant it sounded a little like neuter to us, which always made us laugh, and annoyed his mom to the point she would remind us not to make fun.Not sure on the Neutered part,
Not sure what’s more disturbing. That someone made a You Tube with that title and content, or someone’s (uh hem) viewing pattern that lead to this popping up to him.
That's just rude. Never interrupt a cute girl's huge fart, even if you're a donkey.
Hey I flew right by them today too!Been working on my '97 Chevy pickup today.
Brake calipers were sticking, so I took them apart, cleaned them, and greased the sliding pins. Leaking tire fixed with a new valvestem. Broken inside driver's door handle replaced along with sagging door hinge pins. Washed & waxed what's left of the paint & polished the yellow off the headlight lenses.
She's at that point where if the engine or transmission go, that's the end, but I kind of enjoy spending a little time and $50 to keep her going. I'll be 42 this year, and I've owned this truck for 21 years. Crazy to think $4400 bought a six year old 3/4 ton 4x4 with 90k miles in 2003. Best money I ever spent.

Nah. That’d be time for an LS swap.She's at that point where if the engine or transmission go, that's the end, but I kind of enjoy spending a little time and $50 to keep her going.
5.7L Vortec and 4L80E. 172,000 miles. I suspect they'll outlive the (very rusty) body & chassis, but the engine has developed a low rpm miss that I haven't spent any time diagnosing yet.Nah. That’d be time for an LS swap.
It's okay, we all make mistakes.Today I added Georgia and South Carolina to my states landed in list. Will update my signature when I have time
Coyote swap and watch GM fanboys' heads explode, lol.Nah. That’d be time for an LS swap.
Years back I worked at a Ford dealership. One of the other mechanics had a '63 Ford F-100 that had a Chevy 396 in it. Yeah, we kidded him about knowing which engine is the best...Coyote swap and watch GM fanboys' heads explode, lol.
Well, at least in the case of the F-100, the 396 probably doubled the amount of horsepower that was in that truck to begin with. Although I would have to go ahead and one-up it to the Ford 427/428 motors if we're just throwing silly power at a truck that was designed around an I-6 or small V8 the the time.Years back I worked at a Ford dealership.

It’s a different form of shorthand than the written form. I haven’t heard it but I have seen it done. Many courts have changed to just recording multitrack audio and transcribing from that when needed. Lots of different strokes available for this mission.hey @midlifeflyer .....I was watching a court video and this woman who obviously looks thrilled to be there was yapping into that thing she's holding (I assume she isn't huffing amyl nitrite in court). is that a new way of stenograhpying? if so, why not just record what the judge is saying into his microphone and maybe she can just yap responses or whatever is left? also, how incredibly annoying must that be for the judge to hear someone mumbling literally every time you speak? weird. I do hope it's not a pilot relief tube.........ok actually I do.

it’s a “stenomask.” I’ve never seen one in use, but the mask silences the stenographer so the judge doesn’t even hear mumbling. As @iamtheari said, it’s one of a number of methods used these days to record court proceedings, depositions, etc.hey @midlifeflyer .....I was watching a court video and this woman who obviously looks thrilled to be there was yapping into that thing she's holding (I assume she isn't huffing amyl nitrite in court). is that a new way of stenograhpying? if so, why not just record what the judge is saying into his microphone and maybe she can just yap responses or whatever is left? also, how incredibly annoying must that be for the judge to hear someone mumbling literally every time you speak? weird.

I participated as a juror in a lab (mock) trial about half an lifetime ago. The experiment theme was accessibility. Some fellow jurors were deaf and relied on a realtime court reporter for testimony and deliberations. One attorney was paraplegic and used a modified Segway to get around the courtroom. And the court reporters demonstrated different means of shorthand, including the stenomask (whose name I hadn’t remembered, so thank you for that!) There were other things going on, but those were the elements that always stood out in my memory.it’s a “stenomask.” I’ve never seen one in use, but the mask silences the stenographer so the judge doesn’t even hear mumbling.

Free tip of the day. Don’t get one for your wife for her birthday. She will not find it funny.it’s a “stenomask.” …… the mask silences ……. can’t even hear mumbling.
Will you be apologizing to your wife? Or will you be keeping this quiet?Today I found my old leather briefcase which I thought had been accidentally thrown away by my wife.
“Cleaning up my workshop”… what language is that? I don’t understand.
And what might be in said briefcase?Today I found my old leather briefcase which I thought had been accidentally thrown away by my wife.
You never actually see what’s in the briefcase. There’s just this golden glow from inside whenever someone opens it.And what might be in said briefcase?
I think it's code for "I know I have a 'insert type here' wrench/tool around here somewhere, and I kinda need it now".“Cleaning up my workshop”… what language is that? I don’t understand.
Yeah, if it's a 10mm socket you're screwed no matter what.I think it's code for "I know I have a 'insert type here' wrench/tool around here somewhere, and I kinda need it now".
The key to finding 10mm sockets is needing a 12.Yeah, if it's a 10mm socket you're screwed no matter what.
