Thomas working on the TRC server... I'm glad we have Bob & Jeff here at RWG as Admins

He'll never see your post though Scott... He's too busy playing gurly picture cop in the Bin...

Quick one Offshore

Starting the learning curve on picture taking... Guess I will have to spend some time in Neils new forum First I need to get a tripod though... Well, here goes... TT IWC Big Pilot 21J Asian Movement with a custom strap...

"This is my sister... Number 4 prostitue in all the country..."

Unfortunately it’s the standard Rep strap… Which is a real bummer… It is real Rose Gold [not plated]… And has a ETA movement… With a Gen strap or a good quality aftermarket, this piece would be awesome…

Dear Mrs. Fenton, Over the past six months, your husband, Mr. Bill Fenton has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this type of behavior and have considered banning the entire family from shopping in any of our stores. We have documented all incidents on our video surveillance equipment. Three of our clerks are attending counseling from the trouble your husband has caused. All complaints against Mr. Fenton have been compiled and are listed below. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MEMO: RE: Mr. Bill Fenton - Complaints - Things Mr. Bill Fenton has done while his spouse was shopping in our store: 1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts when they weren't looking. 2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5- minute intervals. 3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leadin g to the restrooms. 4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone, 'Code 3' in housewares..... and watched what happened. 5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and asked to put a bag of M&M's on lay away. 6. September 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area. 7. September 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he'd invite them in if they'll bring pillows from the bedding department. 8. September 23: When a clerk asks if they can help him, he begins to cry and asks, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?' 9. October 4: Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror, and picked his nose. 10. November 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, asked the clerk if he knows where the antidepressants are. 11. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously loudly humming the"Mission Impossible" theme. 12. December 6: In the auto department, practiced his "Madonna look" using different size funnels. 13. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browse through, yelled "PICK ME!" "PICK ME!" 14. December 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumes the fetal position and screams "NO! NO! It's those voices again!!!!" And; last, but not least!) 15. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door and waited awhile; then, yelled, very loudly, "There is no toilet paper in here!"

Just had an after-thought... This thread will probably end up being censored because we all know Gore invented the internet...

Our Social Security _____________________________________________ Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. He promised: 1.) That participation in the Program would be completely voluntary, 2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual incomes into the Program, 3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year, 4.) That the money the participants put into the independent "Trust Fund" rather than into the General operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program, and, 5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month -- and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we paid to the Federal government to "put away" -- you may be interested in the following: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent "Trust Fund" and put it into the General fund so that Congress could spend it? A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically controlled House and Senate. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding? A: The Democratic Party. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities? A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting the "tie-breaking" deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the US. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants? AND MY FAVORITE: A: That's right! Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party. Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democratic Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Then, after doing all this lying and thieving and violating of the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away! And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!

Corner... I looked long and hard this morning for the _________________... But could not find the damn thing anywhere... So, consider yourself the winner of this small little contest and take a look at your wallet... Excellent creative work my friend! TT

How big we think we are... And how truly small we are in comparision... Think I'll go pour myself a cup of coffee... TT PS: Life truly is good!

And to cap it off... What about Betelgeuse & Antares...

But wait... It doesn't stop there... What about Arcturus...

And then there's our Sun...

But then there's...

Doesn't really fit in this thread... But have you ever wondered just how BIG our planet is?

Picked up a IWC - Big Pilot 47mm this week. It's a nice piece, but I'm a little dissapointed in the crown. It's the Big Onion and it has the look and feel of plastic. The piece has the Asian 21J movement in it. Does anyone know if a Gen could be put on it, and if so, where to source one? Thanks, TT

I think it would be safe to say at this point that Corner has won the _________________... I will give it another 24 hours to see if anyone else wants to jump in... TT

Dude... where the hell ya Bin? We've missed ya around here... TT PS: Check your wallet now

Edge: Cheers and we look forward to your [full] return in the near future... TT
