      I think we should move to actual penis sizes.

        3 and 4 are impossible to measure meaningfully. And 134 is a joke.

                  8, almost 9 if we measure the underside. Cut. I'm leary to say it (last time I felt like an idiot for doing so), but he went first so... oh well. I guess he proved I'm an idiot, but I had to "man-up" and respond honestly. Especially because I win (at least something).

                    This is funny.
                    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                        The Friedman book is not philosophical.

                          And here I was hoping to read something interesting about economics. :\

                          Oh, well. I guess I'll have to pick up A Monetary History of the United States next time I'm in Barnes & Noble.

                            Oerdin, stop trolling. Noone believes for one second that you've ever been in a bookstore.

                              If it's not interesting why buy it?

                                Haven't read it. It's on my list of classics that I'm planning to read, but will probably never get around to...

                                I'm currently reading the Fountainhead. No time for two monstrously huge philosophical books at the moment.



                                You'd be much better off investing your time in Friedman.
