This guy really got screwed




I am reading the autobiography of this dude called Lawrence Montaigne who is best know for two guest appearances on Star Trek. It is an interesting read as he was in a bunch of movies in Europe like "The Great Escape." But what is really interesting is that Gene Roddenberry wanted him to replace Leonard Nimoy when there was a salary dispute in the second season of Star Trek.

Imagine all the money this guy would have made.

He is like Wally Pipp in reverse or something.

He even looks like Nimoy.

That was the point.

He was set up as the replacement. He was going to be the new Spock but at the last minute Nimoy settled his contract.

I think the guy had a son named Monty who used to comment on TOP. Monty Montaigne was one bitter dude.

Speaking of getting screwed, Obamacare strikes home.

When we started having kids, my wife decided to stop working. Then she decided to go back, but made the arrangement that she would forgo benefits, so that she would be considered part-time and set her own hours. It's been a great situation, because she takes off when she needs to, nobody can tell her she has to work at the busy times, and her stress is greatly reduced.

Now, with Obamacare looming, her company told her she has to go full-time or not work over 28 hours per week. I know, I know, most people are in the opposite situation, getting their hours cut, the the bottom line is that our freedoms are diminished. We're screwed.

My son works in her office, too. He worked 65 hours over spring break. That won't happen again, because now he can't work over 28 hours. And the employer has to hire/train/dick around with/babysit extra help to keep the part-timers under 30 hours. We're screwed.

Fucking community organizer.

You and your family fucked up, windbag. You accepted personal responsibility for your own lives.

Strictly powdered-wig stuff.

Tamerlan's hog will never get hard or blow a load again.

Devastating. A total waste of a hot hog.

Last night I had a dream. I met Tamer and Josar in the hood. We came back to my loft to smoke a joint. Then we whipped out our hogs and compared them.

I woke up and immediately jerked off.

Tam, Josar....I will find another similar to you soon and take care of them, my loves. Thankfully, they are teaming in my hood.

You've never mentioned this before Titus. Were you a stoner in HS? Did you make jokes about Token Creek?

I smoked some pot Chick but not much.

I haven't smoked pot in 15 years.
