Nah, It'll never happen.

I haven't seen this many pages of useless dribble since the Health Care Bill

We have a few (thousand) more pages to go before we threaten the Health Care Bill's record.
Everybody needs to pony-up many more pages of drivel -- or "dribble", if you insist, although it's messier.

Is that all the "dribble" you have to contribute?
nah .... I cold say ...
Bump
or TTT

The rule is that each posting must contain exactly 4 words.
There's also a five-word thread, that's lagging slightly behind.

Well, it may be 6600 posts, but they aren't particularly wordy!
(and frankly, the aren't particularly interesting, either -- lots of "time to eat lunch" and "gotta go to work" type posts.)

I always liked the part in "Airplane!" where they were in the "Mayo Clinic", The doctor had a bouncing heart on a dish on his desk, and there were jars and jars of Mayonnaise on the shelves.
There's also...
Operator: [Captain Oveur is on the phone with the Mayo Clinic] Excuse me, Captain Oveur, but I have an emergency call on line five from a Mr. Hamm.
Captain Oveur: Alright, give me a Hamm on five, hold the Mayo.

No, but if you catch one in your hand, they explode like a firecracker!

Normal speed is about 25-30 MPH. They can dive and reach speeds approaching 60 MPH. They are also the only bird that can fly backwards.
