    - I bought Rickards last weekend and my wife and I really liked it (White and Honey Brown especially) -- nm - Beaker Jun 30, 09:58 1
      - I'm not a fan of whites and their honey brown isn't even as good as Sleeman's imo. -- nm - Shaun Jun 30, 10:01

        You just know he'd find some way to surgically implant a horn on the poor pony's forehead - Stephen Jun 30, 09:48 2
        
        nah, just smush an ice cream cone on there. -- nm - mafic Jun 30, 09:53 1
        
        But when the ice cream melts, the magic is gone! We can't let magic melt! (nm) - znuf si Jun 30, 09:57
- I gotta think California is the best example of why pure democracy doesn't work. - Will Hunting Jun 30, 09:36 8
  - A super majority for passing budgets allows a small majority in the legislature to hold the state hostage too. - musubi Jun 30, 09:45 3
    - Of course the same can be said about the Dems who have controlled the house for how many years who refuse to cut spending unless forced to. - Stephen Jun 30, 09:50 2
      - Neither side is innocent victims. I'm just pissed at, in the time of crisis, holding an idealogical "absolutely no taxes" line. - musubi Jun 30, 09:56

    - milk choc. is fine but the bitter stuff is gross -- nm - zork Jun 30, 09:40
    - and that's a bad thing? -- nm - znufrii Jun 30, 09:40 4
      - So ... you're okay will still having a taste in your mouth the next day? -- nm - Beryllium Jun 30, 09:43 3
        
        let's not bring his sex life into the discussion -- nm - zork Jun 30, 09:44
