Shame it wasn't a greasin' urn.

Yeah, the defect in your suggestion is that if he could get his hands into the urn to take his pants off he wouldnt be stuck in the first place...
Unless he has a prehensile dick of course, in which case you couldn't keep (most) of the ladies a way with a team of horses.

As was said in the topic regarding Connor and His Urn Escape, many bad ideas are birthed at a New Year's Eve party. As was this one. We talked about skiing weird things for July 4, the challenge was accepted, and so far, for 25 Independence Days, an ..erm...unexpected contraption has been skied. So far, no one has been injured and the only "accident" was the time the toilet being skied broke halfway around. This being Alabama, we had an extra unused toilet available and so the day was saved.

I have some pix but I get a message the file is too big. The pics aren't great, though, because they are photos of photos that were water damaged in Hurricane Michael. The toilet was in the years before digital pix (or phone cameras, really), so I have photographed all the pix I had that had been water damaged; at least I have a digital record of shenanigans now!raison de arizona wrote: ↑Thu Jan 11, 2024 1:32 pm Alabama Toilet Skiing - you learn something new every day!

Open them in Microsoft Paint, reduce the sise by 50% or more (I usually do 75% reduction) and save them as a new file.

Thank! I have a Mac and forgot I can resize in Preview. Just prior to launch of toiletski. Poor quality due to being a photo of a water-damaged photo.

A unique trend is emerging overseas where people are deep-frying toothpicks made from sweet potatoes or cornstarch, often colored green with food coloring.

I couldn't find a better place to put this, but if I missed it, please repost. This involves the stolen diary of Ashley Biden. Aimee Harris, who stole it (and then I think she tried to sell it?) is to be sentenced in NY 2/5. She lives in FL and has been ordered to be there in person. She says she has no ID so can't fly. First, she actually said the government had taken her passport, but then the government filed saying no, they never took possession of her passport.
The court told her to go get a non-drivers ID or take a bus or train but she has to be there. LOL

https://www.innercitypress.com/sdny377e ... 20224.htmlOn February 2, Judge Swain docketed: "ORDER as to (22-Cr-457-1) Aimee Harris. The sentencing hearing in the above-captioned case will be held on Monday, February 5, 2024, at 2:30 p.m., in Courtroom 17C. Ms. Harris must appear in person. Ms. Harris is directed to do whatever is necessary, including obtaining a valid state identification card for travel by plane, or making alternative travel arrangements, to facilitate her in-person appearance at the sentencing. Ms. Harris is reminded that appearance in court as required is one of the conditions of her pretrial release and bond. SO ORDERED." Showdown...
