Re: A new random thread
I ordered the volume two of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories today. When it arrives, I'll hopefully have all of it he wrote. I am rather enjoying volume one so far.

Now they are live streaming the second day... I want a Google TV set top box.
When anyone watches this, they will understand why I'm sure.

Depends on how fast you type. A 160 character message can take around 25 seconds for me, on a decent keyboard. It's a little longer on a touch screen keyboard cause I am used to going so fast that the auto-correct software can't cope with it.

I knew Americans hated the letter "u", but I didn't think "d" was so unpopular.

80 degrees and sunny, and the same expected for tomorrow - the damn Bennies are out clogging up the roads, and it isn't even Memorial Day yet.
Here's an open message to you: stay mother-f***ing home in New mother-f***ing York and go to Jones mother-f***ing Beach.
