Your local city ordinances probably say yes. Not in a permission-type yes, in case you're confusing "can" with "may". I mean an ontological yes. Which means no. If "can" means "may", that is.

If you eat in a dinner jacket, and smoke in a smoking jacket, what do you do in a windbreaker?
Wanderer,

Thank you for bringing a smile to an otherwise awful day. You have planted a seed. Never forget that the ordinary things we do can have extraordinary results.

I haven't been here for a long time, but I have something that has kept me interested in boring classes. Make (or imagine) an index card with the words "The other side of the card is true" on it, and on the other side "The other side of this card is false." I found this in a book of paradoxes when I was little. If anybody has any answers, tell me, 'cause I might just be wasting my time wondering about it.

When I get my bracket done (imagine how cops keep their shotguns inthe car), I'll post a picture.
I leased a 2005 Grand Cherokee. I found that it has a little nook-like place on the center console where the right side of the drivers seat comes up against it. There's just enough space to slide in a soprano whistle straight into place. It stays put until you need it. It's as though it's made specifically for the purpose.

And who decided the order of the days of the week? I want Monday to be in the middle, so I'll have more time to prepare for it.

This reminds me of a restaurant that opened in a cute little building here in Spokane several years ago. The management was from out of town, and it took them a while to realize why very few people ate there and why there were jokes going around saying if you did eat there, don't order kidney or heart or brains.

The business that used to be in that building was a funeral parlor.

Well, things like offers to enlarge my *ahem* johnson. Of course, I haven't seen fit to take advantage.
I was going to say something really witty to this, but my witty response was based on the fact that I had read your response incorrectly. Therefore I have nothing more to say. :P Well, except that I was half tempted to take them up on the offer, and then sue their tails off when it didn't work. The ones I get GUARANTEE results, but don't specify gender.
