Seinfeld is an American live-action sitcom created by Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld for the National Broadcasting Company. Set predominantly in New York City, the show, written and produced by Seinfeld, depicts several different New Yorkers coping with an ever-growing list of different stresses. The show's premise is built around the concept of "Seinfeld's Law". In order to be successful, New Yorkers must manage their anxiety levels. For anyone who has watched the show on television, the law is quite simple. When confronted with a stressful situation, an individual needs to become calmer, more positive and more relaxed. While it was developed during the second half of the '90's, the concept of "Seinfeld's Law" is more recently referred to as the "Phenomenal Happier Law". To get a better understanding of the concept, here is a short video interview with Larry Davidson, the creator of

ok well im super drunk right now after playing bass in an awesome metal show and i have a hot chick waiting for me in my bed so ill say this:

i've been hearing a lot of people saying these things (like "i've heard lots of guys say this!" and "it's just a rumor" - and im sure they are right but im a little skeptical because i haven't seen anything) and im also guessing there has been a lot written about why im a super bitchy girl for doing a rap album - and not only that, but i think alot people can relate to what im saying if that bothers them or they think im being a bitch - or if they find me to be the type of hot girl who gets drunk and runs off like no one's business.

but honestly, if you guys cant tell im totally over it - stop posting these things and don't start arguing on social media or other places about it. - and im not going to talk about how i feel or any of this shit just because it will piss you off or the general direction your friendship needs to go in. but just because you don't like it doesn't mean im against it.

John Denver – Led Zeppelin IV (Part II) (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 29 May 2019 18:51 (five years ago) link

You hire a female prostitute, tell her to meet you at a fancy restaurant, and ask her to pretend to be your colleague from the bank. Hire a male prostitute, and tell him the same thing. You sit at a table next to theirs and listen to their conversation. You're an asshole.

And it doesn't take all that much to tell the average employee to piss off.

"Women are just as likely to say something you don't like, be rude, or refuse to talk when you're asked a question," says Susan Ruhl, author of Girls in Work: A Year in the Life of an American Institution and author of "How You're Hired: How to Get the Girl and Hire the Boss: How to Get what Women Have Wants," a book on how women operate in modern workplaces.

So what goes through your mind when you see "The Handmaid's Tale" on TV?

Well, first of all, don't pay attention to what they're saying about the book or film, because you won't want them to. That said, there's a big difference between a writer/director who is going up against the power of the internet and the person who wants to tell you something you might find offensive. (You should always be on guard against those, either.)

He took down that elephant thing HARDCORE. DAMMMNNN.

The camera zoomed in on the white elephant with a very weird look on his face as it passed him.

"So where's that elephant thing from before?"

"What?!"

"You said he wasn't part of the circus."

She blinked slowly at him. "That's not true. That's not an elephant. It's not white."

"I just thought you might enjoy seeing the elephant at work." His laugh was really trying to be sweet… she turned around to see he wasn't done with her yet. "He wants you to watch that white thing get the meat out of it's legs."

"I would!" the girl laughed. He was in the best mood she'd seen him in the last few days. She'd just gotten a call for more stuff for her little friend while he and the mother went hunting. He'd just come back from hunting two deer.

She couldn't believe it. "You have to watch," she told him. "It's so funny. I can tell he thinks this is hilarious... and it is."

"Okay, but this is not a circus, and don't pretend it's all your fault!" He just gave

I like to smear creamy oreo filling all over my body then my midget boyfriend does the ritualistic milk jug dance around my cream covered body. Sometimes we invite the neighbors to watch or even join in! Wanna come over tonight? You wanna talk cookie sluts??? Let's talk cookie sluts???

If you want to know where my sweet tooth lies, read on.

What I like eating at the cookie cutter hole, and why…

A cookie cutter hole in town takes two hours to bake. The cookie cutters are basically three large holes in the middle of a bakery; just put an actual cookie in the one that is inside, and let it hit the fire, and it's ready. And then that is my perfect day for all of you.

So I love these cookie cutters so much it is nearly impossible to resist! They are fun!! They have such subtle flavours, and we LOVE my secret ingredient peanut butter – peanut butter (because that's what I think they used to do all the time!).

Then, we'll take our little girl to the cookie cutters to watch a bunch of cookie cutters, then let her lick her fingers…

I have a little girl…

And she always makes eye contact to my face when I ask her to.

We love to watch her in the peanut butter and jelly sandwich

(Auld Drink of Misery - 1.2.20.13-28)

When it is evening and all you people of this world are drunk, I came to thee to drink. I said, "I will put my hand down," but my hands were taken, and I had no power to go on after that, so I went in for a draught; and at a low draught I found a fair maiden; she was in a poor mood and had no strength to carry herself as gracefully as she should; and when she was drunk she fell against the edge of a steeple, and was drowned.

No one saw him disembark in the unanimous night, no one saw the bamboo canoe sinking into the sacred mud, but within a few days, there was that long-forgotten spirit that walked on the ocean's floor, the spirit that looked out from the sea and saw what was right in its eyes."

-The Great Wave, by E.D. Housley, ed. Charles W. Miller

I had the great privilege and good fortune to be able to watch "The Great Wave" as it was broadcast by the PBS radio network on January 29, 1974.

In order to get in touch with my great grandfather (who was the lead on this one) about getting the footage out I gave him a few pointers on who I actually am, what I really believe about the world, even what my mother used to use to say.

It was only when he saw the clip online (that video here) that he agreed to answer a few questions that I had concerning The Great Wave.

The Great Wave will appear on the PBS History channel in the spring of 2017. Watch it live in the clip above – in the next installment – on "The Nature Conservancy, and all its projects…and all our works, as a reminder to come back and continue our work of conservation."

I fed a fish to a pelican at Frisco bay
It tried to eat my cell phone, he ran away
The bird shot arrows at my car, then threw us around it
One time I was watching a ballerina in the street and she hit a bird that flew at her and it was dead
After leaving her home she tried to attack a bird that was laying on the sidewalk
My cell phone started to die and my dog was trying to call for me from it when I grabbed it from the tree
It threw one ball at my head and I was scared of the bird and tried to hide it (I could hear it screaming in the background)
He was eating some fruits off the tree
The whole thing took two hours
I heard one of my dogs get hit hard by the bird
I went to the veterinarian, he said it could be rabies.
I tried to take care of the bird myself to see if I could stop it and the vet was saying it could be any combination of things.
The doctor said if a bird was on its own and was flying there was a high chance it would get hit by something or if a bird was too close to it and the bird could fly away
Then the whole bird attacked, I ran into my neighbor's garden that is about 200+ years old and the birds got away. I couldn't

Do you know the way to San Jose?

The answer is not. Go in the direction of the lake.

And even though you're going nowhere else, be sure to wear sunscreen. The sunscreen industry and beachgoers alike want this to be a beach year.

The sun has been rising in Southern California for a decade, so people need to cover this area with sunscreen, especially when the temperature's not far behind.

A lot of sunburns – including sunstroke and skin abscesses – are the result of this disease. The good news is that most are caused by the bacteria called Candida. They're usually very hard for people to identify: they're hard to see or feel. And while they may look like these in the mirror, they're actually tiny fungi. It takes a lot of work on your part, and it's worth the money in the long run.

A few places do have some really good beaches – they include Hacienda Road (about 10 miles south of downtown Oakland). And those are often right in the middle of San Francisco bay. I've also got good places near Lake Merced (where Lake Powell flows into Lake Tahoe). The Sierra is a great place for vacationing in the winter, when it doesn't get very cold outside and there's nowhere to go to the beach. But they're a bit of

It was all a dream, I used to read Word Up! magazine
Salt-n-Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine
Hangin' pictures on my wall
Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl
I let my tape rock 'til my tape popped,
and I just kept it up
And then finally I got some money and it started to sell
I was selling records at all the places in the city, that was cool
But they got too far the city was just too hot for them
And when they broke through in a different city they got the whole city
That was a tough place being down on your luck
They just didn't know what to do
So at that point I was on the edge of my own ledge, so to speak
I had this feeling that if they got ahold of me I could get on my feet
I thought, well I can take care of myself
And I was like man don't worry bout it I ain't nothing to worry about
I ain't got nothing, don't make no trouble, don't put no blame
Now I wanted to be a writer for some reason
I know that's where I was coming from, because the best books have a narrator
And sometimes you have to tell them everything you know, that's where I am

riverrun, past Eve and Adams, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth, Castle and Environs. Here, in our neighbourhood, are three towers, one of stone, one of wood, and one of stone and stone of wood. All the towers are not more than fifteen feet square, and the wood about twelve feet. We see some great stones in the tower, for a base. We see a church of St Augustine with great tower, and other churches, and a very great pile of a kind. The church of St. John the Evangelist has a tower, of wood and stone; but the church of St. Paul has not yet been built. In Westminster Abbey stands St. John, the head, with the other heads of the saints there, standing between the north and the south wings. On the hill-side there is a great chapel, called the Abbey.

The people were gathered into the church before the doors were shut; after the order of the prayer, they all retired towards the castle. I am not sure that every one is in this place all together, being divided in a narrow way, in order that the people may form an army against the Duke of Albemarle from the east and west, if the other armies of the French should attack the town

the terrible band name I made up did not fool this machine at all - it sees right through the ruse, and then beyond through the ruse behind all music writing

That’s when Germs decided he had to have Peter in his new band, Acid Nutcrack. But where exactly were the fans for Peter in Acid Nutcrack?
What really stuck with me about this story isn't exactly how great Peter's guitar solos were or how he played acid. It's how little people knew about Acid Nutcrack, or what they knew about Peter. How Peter felt about the music he played and how many folks knew? What Peter would write down about Acid Nutcrack were his thoughts, not what other people said about it.
What Peter would write down were his thoughts. But, because there were no tapes or CDs or websites about Acid Nutcrack, he often wrote in plain terms, and there were no reviews of the band. This was a very dangerous, very unusual practice, in a genre very similar to music criticism I've been working in for some time.
What this meant was that Peter wasn't allowed to write, but anyone could write a review of him about Acid Nutcrack. The person writing reviews for Acid Nutcrack would do it, on their own time, and there would be no editing, no revisions, nothing. The reviewers were free. There was no oversight over who reviewed it, no editing or corrections

Til you see that you're all right
Strawberry fields, we'll stay long after the world ends
Just you to sing, no one's got to know
Strawberryfields forever
Strawberry field
Strawberry, strawberry fields forever
Strawberry fields, we'll just stay forever
I need to buy more strawberries
But I still want to go on the strawberry farm
Strawberryfields forever (Strawberry fields forever)
Thanks for the support, we're playing like it's no play
Let me tell you I'll still leave you be
I want you to feel like me when you know you're wrong
(Treats himself to one of the best songs ever)
I want to sing your name in my heart, like I've been doing for years

If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like.

In a nutshell, my father was a great guy. Very generous with all he had, and I loved him dearly. We had so much fun, as his children would attest, but he had more than one "buddy" during my childhood, and they all ended up being miserable failures: two who died, and one who gave up on me long ago.

My mother was also a little bit weird.

When I was 12, her father had died in a car crash on his way to work on a Sunday morning. When she was six or seven, she began to think she was going to kill her mother to protect my father's life. A year or so later, she began to think she would kill me, too, to protect me from someone.

I got mad and broke his neck (in the worst way possible). I later learned that my mother really believed in that. So, in 1999, I joined a Christian militia. I was in charge of organizing, writing letters to their leaders, and talking my way among them. When it came time to pick a location we were going to go, we decided to do a base camp near an old army base.

"Show me show me show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream," she said
"The one that makes me laugh," she said
Threw her arms around my neck
, as if I was her biggest fan, I felt her body heat on my shoulders
We stood outside a store and we both held hands
I could feel my hair against her head, as if she would make me a new haircut
We walked over to a diner and we settled in to eat
I could feel my hair against her head, as if I would make me a new haircut
We sat by the pool and tried again, again with her, as if I was her biggest fan, I felt her body heat on my shoulders
She looked at me and laughed at my jokes
She looked at me and laughed, "Oh no. I cannot be a bad girlfriend now. I don't want that baby on the way in."
I heard her walk down the street carrying the door open
And I was so excited for it to fall and I had gone from being a bad girlfriend to a hot girlfriend, and I wasn't going to let it happen, so I ran back to the hotel room while her head was still pressed to my shoulder
I closed the door behind us, because if I didn't, she was just going to keep me there for the rest of my days

Coca Cola also released some interesting advertising, in hopes of putting a positive spin on things.
The ads featured a young American girl wearing white pants, the slogan "Do smoke pot" written over her, and reading "Coca Cola knows what it's like to do nothing all day" over the television.
It seemed like a pretty innocent advertising trick, but it really did get people thinking, and eventually led to more campaigns and the release of "Marijuana for Children".
If you look at the first paragraph (a photo of a girl smoking a straw), you can see a similar advertising campaign they were doing for "Cocaine for Children" in June of 1967.
