Day 35 - Better Business Beating, Salty Mole Talk, Now Follow the Huge Green Path and Take a Left in 300 Yards

Mr. Gray
Got a reply from the BBB about the complaint I filed Friday. They forwarded it to the business so I guess we'll see how that works out
11:16 AM Mr. Silver
"The Better Business Bureau would like to confirm that a cage match has been set for next Saturday to resolve the repair dispute."
11:17 AM Mr. Gray
I wish
I'd so stomp someone


 
Mr. Gray
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Police say "Jackass" cast member Ryan Dunn has died of injuries sustained in a car crash in suburban Philadelphia.
Mr. Silver
So...suppose Dunn was filming his last stunt?
12:36 PM Mr. Gray
Don’t think so...though I’m sure the irony had to have struck him before he expired
12:37 PM Mr. Silver
"Damn! Wish I had a camera!"



2:48 PM Mr. Yellow
tryign to get U Haul to call back to explain the charge
if it is a bigus charge then I have to try and get them to pay the bounce fee
bougug
bogus
gah



3:44 PM Mr. Yellow
I just want to get Mrs. Yellow’s car paid off
get that done and we can trade her car in and get a 2 to 4 year old used VW or Ford any car that can hold us and the kids and get around 30 to 40 miles a gallon
Maybe a KIA
3:48 PM Mr. Silver
I'm still bugged by the idea of riding in a vehicle that is named the same initials as "Killed In Action"



Mr. Silver
So..."Salt" 
Enjoyed it
8:11 AM Mr. Brown
Yes I like that movie
8:11 AM Mr. Blue
Someone recommended it to me
8:13 AM Mr. Red
Salt was a good movie
8:14 AM Mr. Silver
There were silly bits, but only one part was absolutely silly
8:15 AM Mr. Blue
Which part?
8:15 AM Mr. Silver
Planning on seeing it? 
8:15 AM Mr. Blue
Probably not
8:19 AM Mr. Silver
There was a bit where she took one of her husband's spiders with her
and in prep for the assassination job, she syringe-collects venom from it
You couldn't do such even with the world’s largest spider
8:22 AM Mr. Blue
Remove venom with a syringe?
8:22 AM Mr. Silver
and the volume shown was approximately 1000x the spider's mass
8:22 AM Mr. Blue
perhaps she mixed it with something
8:23 AM Mr. Silver
nope
8:23 AM Mr. Blue
an anti-coagulant
8:23 AM Mr. Silver
stuck the needle right in the bottle and drew
8:23 AM Mr. Red
I remember thinking about the scene that I was surprised the spider didn't attack her
8:25 AM Mr. Silver
Meanwhile I LOVED her making the flame bomb launcher
8:32 AM Mr. Silver
A bangalore would have been more reasonable, but the rocket launcher was more fun
8:44 AM Mr. Silver
I did figure out her best-buddy agent was a pro-Soviet mole too, way before the reveal
8:45 AM Mr. Red
Yeah I figured that but still didn't seem smart
8:46 AM Mr. Silver
me "Snerk" 
Mrs. Silver "What?" 
me "Her best friend is a Russian spy too and it's a setup" 
Mrs. Silver "Huh?  How do you know?"
8:51 AM Mr. Silver
So anyway...it's sequel bait
I'd like to see a spoof where we discover that everyone in the US government is a pro-Soviet Russian agent and everyone in Russia is American.
9:19 AM Mr. Silver
(agent hiding behind desk in oval office during reload pause in firefight)  "Wait!  Wait!  ...Are we ALL Soviet moles?" 
"I am."
"I am."
(general consensus) 
"OK...is anyone here NOT Russian? Mr. President?" 
“I'm a mole too, tovarich.”
(Silence.  Everyone stands and looks around awkwardly.) 



9:30 AM Mr. Blue
“Hobo with a Shotgun” is on On-Demand.  Was tempted to watch it
But I wasn't really in a rom-com mood



10:23 AM Mr. Silver
"I can't download the updates to my golf GPS.  It won't let me log in to download the courses."  
"You can't even imagine how little sympathy I have for you on this 'issue'."
10:29 AM Mr. Blue
Golf GPS?
Getting lost on the course?
10:34 AM Mr. Blue
One thing I’ll always refuse to use is a GPS
10:38 AM Mr. Brown
I use when in unfamiliar territory
But usually have written directions too.
10:39 AM Mr. Blue
There should be no such thing as unfamiliar territory
10:46 AM Mr. Brown
Golf GPS is for losers that cannot judge distance
10:48 AM Mr. Blue
Ah, I see
10:57 AM Mr. Silver
Said to Mrs. Silver over lunch: "You ask the guy where Tee #1 is and start walking...GPS..."Guy at Pro Shop"
11:02 AM Mr. Red
I need golf GPS to find where the heck I hit my ball to.
11:02 AM Mr. Blue
heheh
11:04 AM Mr. Brown
Wow that would be a great gadget.  Only thing it needs to do is show you where the ball went
11:11 AM Mr. Silver
Probably tells you what club to use.
11:12 AM Mr. Blue
It should tell you to club yourself over the head for buying a golf GPS
11:15 AM Mr. Silver
"I want to complain about this golf GPS I got.  It just keeps sighing and saying 'Pick a dumb club and hit the stupid ball'."



11:48 AM Mr. Silver
I told her to dial 'star' on her phone and had never heard the term. 
"The asterisk next to the zero" 
The what?" 
"The asterisk...by the zero." 
"Oh...the x with the line through it?  You call that a star?" 
12:14 PM Mr. Silver
almost came back with "You call that an X with a line through it?"



12:14 PM Mr. Blue
If a politician questions evolution, I have to question that politician
12:16 PM Mr. Red
Has the politician evolved?
12:16 PM Mr. Blue
Apparently not
12:34 PM Mr. Silver
Pft...Intelligent Design...Creationism -- "A rose by any other name is still a Rosales Rosaceae Rosoideae Rosa"



12:42 PM Mr. Blue
"There is an outage but the techs are working on the problem." 
"Well, is there like, any way to get them to work faster?  I have deadlines."
12:45 PM Mr. Silver
"Well, are you working on a time machine we could use, sir?"
"Or perhaps have an ancient Persian lamp with a genie in it?"
1:01 PM Mr. Red
Sorry sir, I’m not in charge of the whip today



3:39 PM Mr. Silver
"I'm just wondering if they'll ever come up with a wireless computer." 
"That'd be awesome, ma'am."
3:44 PM Mr. Red
Did someone actually say that???
What am I saying... of course she did.




4:09 PM Mr. Blue
You go to the Batman casting?
4:09 PM Mr. Silver
Nope, never ended up going.  Don't know anyone that did
4:09 PM Mr. Blue
Me neither
Sounds like the lines were huge but people were saying they didn't wait longer than a couple hours
They're casting like, 3-4000 extras apparently
4:10 PM Mr. Silver
nod
I'm sure it was Look – Pass/Dump - “Take a paper” or “Thanks for coming”.
4:10 PM Mr. Blue
Doesn't seem worth it... just for the slim shot of being a blurry speck in the background of a millisecond of movie footage that doesn't even make the final cut
4:11 PM Mr. Silver
Fun on a resume though
Appeared in “Batman Beats Badguys Bingo"
Good title (keeps)
