Make sure you skip the poppyseed ones when faced with an upcoming drug test.
Ironically, I always flunk them whether or not I've had the muffins. Weird. :eek:

I find that fact neither ironic nor weird, after reading your posts for the last several years. ;)

Is there such a thing as a LEGAL chop block? I've only been officiating football for 2 years, so I'm not sure if there's any chop blocks that are legal.

Yeah - we have a special rule for this league. A chop block is legal if the perpetrator's mother bakes me some muffins prior to the game, preferably lemon poppyseed with almonds.

Mark, you're slippin'.

Used to be all the mom had to do to get her kid some special privilege was wear a low cut tight fitting sweater, smile sweetly and enthusiastically cheer her team on while sitting in the front row.

Now she's gotta bring you muffins... it's a sad day. A sad, sad day indeed...

Say what?
It's the politically correct winter greeting that my son devised to send to all his Progressive Party friends and acquaintances.

It incorporates Christmas, Ramadan, Solstice, Kwanzaa, Hannukah, and I think the Jammin' thing refers to a Rastafarian holiday.

In order to say it properly you have to take a seminar at the community college. [/B]
Not to be a nitpicker, but someone oughta tell your son that Ramadan generally arrives around late September or early October. Far too soon for the winter greeting season.

It's called "getting old".
