@bobbidiboo: "Depends."

Well, you should change those Depends every time you go or it gets messy.

Is this what you resort to? Instead of his record? From Kenya? Sheeesh!

Last couple of weekends I've seen a few deer in my backyard which is mostly wooded with a small spring for fresh water and lots of foliage. But they spooked when they saw me. These still fear man but are pushed further and further from their natural habitat into our domain.

If she'd have given her ID up to the cop, she might have gotten away with just a warning or ticket but, no, she had to escalate the incident. Even if I'm intoxicated, I can still act a little sober when I have too.

How often do you change your sheets?

Once a week or when they start sticking to me.

@BoogittyBoogitty: "If you go to an ACC Gubmint school you need to learn how to hide a shank in your anus."

You seem to know a lot about hiding stuff.

She doesn't look a day older than 79.

Blast from the past – Rocky's – had the best pizzas in town. I like Little Italy's pizzas. Real Italian ingredients.

Bet they'll be another run on weapons and ammo. You got several decades before you'll have to start worrying. And by then, you'll be dead.

@E.J.: "Good grief, my question wasn't an attack; it was asking for clarification. In re-reading it, I cannot see how you could interpret that question as an attack. I know I operate differently than others; everyone does. However, like Davidxto, I am curious as to most people's motives, not just about this, but all things. I would say to rein in your defensiveness. Jeez!"

My comment essentially confirmed what 2dollar said, "I often do nice things for sort of selfish reasons; guilty as charged." And the act of doing good brings the joy of reward – feeling good about oneself.

And if you still don't get it, here's some clarification for you: Every act of good has the added benefit of being good for the one giving as well as the one getting.

@E.J.: "So, if you wouldn't get pleasure from helping someone, you wouldn't, even if they were deserving of help?"

You just don't seem it get it, do you? You need to put a rein on your attack mode. Do we all have to be like you?

I get guilty pleasure every time I do something nice or helpful, they are not mutually independent.

@E.J.: "The point of doing it is because it needs doing and the recipient deserves it; it doesn't matter about you."

Yes, it has to do with me and with you. If we see something that needs done, we do it. And just because we feel good doing it, you should not confuse "you" with feeling good about our actions.

@Minion: Damn you! You're probably the kid that got the stuff I wanted for Christmas. Grrrrr!

@Digdug: Those were the GOOD old days. Sigh...

When I was younger and lived closer to Clarke Hill Lake, my friends and I would drive to the lake Friday night with our fishing poles, swimming stuff and camping gear and boat out to an island in the middle. We'd camp out for the weekend, drinking beer, swimming and fishing. We explored several islands during the summers. Now, that's the best kind of island for me.

@theold33: I learned young, very young that Santa Claus was my parents. Before that, I blamed Santa for the crap I didn't want and got for Christmas. And guess what? The Tooth Fairy was them, too. And we ate the Easter Bunny. Mmmmmm!

@Weird Menace: "the question is whether your death is good for me."

If I could make it look as if you did the deed, it'd be bad for you and I still wouldn't care. I'm dead.

If you want to force women to have unwanted babies then be decent enough to help them if they need it instead of cutting the very funds for programs that help them raise their babies into healthy, productive adults.

@FanaticalModerate: Ssshhhhhhh!

@davidxto: "2dollar was honest when he thought awhile and posted that doing nice things made him feel better.... maybe even a bit of selfish motivation or hope for a better future and more kindness."

What's the point of doing nice and/or helpful things if you don't feel some guilty pleasure doing it?

@athenstransplant: I carry a Swiss army knife with me almost all the time, too. It has nifty tools on it besides two blades.

This philosophical brain burp can cause headaches and arguments but once you're dead will you care?

Sad, neither parent wanted the child at that moment. If you don't want to spend much time with your child that usually means you're irresponsible and thinking only about yourself.

@jtsim: "After twenty five cell phones on your fender you get moved up to bigger car."

After 5 confirmed you're an ace or an exclamation point in text.

We don't need any stinking laws about texting while walking, let Darwin take over. But I agree that laws against texting while driving should not be banned. I like my chances better against a person than a car.
