found it while on the web last night, since the boards aren't busy while I'm at work

I guess I should have been more clear. I meant is this part of your new job, not is this how you waste time at work now.

no I just wait until something breaks then I call somebody to come and fix it, and so when nothing breaks I have plenty of slacker time to waste.

That's MrC's bunghole

Can't be....you can't actually *see* my bunghole, since it traps all light and matter. You have to look at the area around my bunghole, only then will you get the sense of it's true size!

Here I am sucking in a Helicopter:

oh speaking of your mom's cellulite that reminds me, tell her to lose some weight or I'm going to have to charging her triple.

ChadTower · « **Reply #11 on:** October 20, 2005, 12:36:57 pm »

I charge his mom by the chin, since she likes to get them all frosted.

missioncontrol · « **Reply #12 on:** October 20, 2005, 12:52:11 pm »

if I charged her by the chin at my prices I could retire after another visit or two.....

ChadTower · « **Reply #13 on:** October 20, 2005, 12:53:32 pm »

I'm not in it for the money. I consider Seph's mom an Xtreme sport.

missioncontrol · « **Reply #14 on:** October 20, 2005, 12:59:07 pm »

Xtreme sport is right.....

it's more dangerous than rock climbing, I mean just think if she rolls over...

perhaps I should demand hazard pay

ChadTower · « **Reply #15 on:** October 20, 2005, 01:00:08 pm »

I like to get a running start and try to hurdle her... if you're ready, it doesn't matter if you don't make it, you just reach and grab and stab and jab.

you can probably see my mom from the google maps satellite. shes right next to the largest ball of crotch yarn exhibit. provided by chads wife

ChadTower · « **Reply #20 on:** October 20, 2005, 04:22:17 pm »

When Google took all their satellite photos, they contacted Seph's mom.

They told her to get out of the way, she was blocking Idaho.

Isn't this how Seph's mom refers to herself?
