Just make sure you're sober enough to survive the nihilists...

"...it's the balls what makes the man."

interesting theory, dude. i suppose you're right - isn't the goal to use your ball to persuade those ten lovely ladies to lay down for you? if you can keep 'em out of the gutter, that is. make sure the boards are oiled well unless you like the over/under...

The 10 to 1 ratio is exemplary, definitely worthy of immitation. Anything else would be very un-dude.

Sincerely,

That's what the force field of reefer's for. Feel no evil, see no evil.

Dude! Have you never been in a softball league? Drinking intoxicants is like a rule of the game...

Tuesday, 29 March 2005 - 2:42 PM CST

Well, my pool league team certainly drinks down their fair share of intoxicating beverages as well. Helps to see the 8 ball in triplicate. That way you can just aim at the one in the middle.

Softball? Doesn't that require physical exertion, such as running?

Tuesday, 29 March 2005 - 3:20 PM CST

The way I see it, pool requires a certain amount of intelligence, or at least the ability to navigate, which are both in clear violation of the "do nothing" rules. We have rules, you know.

Tuesday, 29 March 2005 - 3:23 PM CST

And sometimes you say "What the hell?"

well, I think fishing may come under your do-nothing rules, Dude. You hang a bit of string and bait off a boat or jetty, and sit drinking, and if something is stupid enough to get caught then you pull it in and drop a fresh bit of string and bait. (Without getting out of your seat - thereby no spillage of beverages!)

Enjoy your bowling though! And believe me, if I can play pool, then no co-ordination or navigation is required. I have no sense of direction, or co-ordination whatsoever. My 20 month old twin sons are better at catching a ball than I am.

Feenxc, are you sure it was a telemarketer and not a heavy breather?

Gnomie ;)

oooh, gnomie, you've got my vote! the perfect way to fish is out of a gently rocking boat that slowly lulls you to sleep. luckily, the snoring scares away the fish, so only the urge for more beverage wakes you. my kinda heaven! of course, i would never drink and boat (wink); you really don't have to leave the docks.

i wish it had been a heavy breather, but at my age it would either shock me into heart failure, or i would die of laughter... probably the laughing thing.

kisshugs!

Caller ID, another invention for the do nothings, saving you from wasting precious time and effort, and possibly from an acute case of carpal tunnel syndrome inflicted by the nazi telemarketers, not to mention the occasional sudden onset of a neck crick.

Telemarketers are bad, but phone surveyers are worse. I vowed to punish them by making up words next time they called, but then they called me about a real issue "how important are parks in the lives of people living in apartments" so I couldn't.

I like to think of 'do nothingness' or slothing, as I prefer to call it, as an art - something beautiful and to be developed with much time and attention.
