Remember on International Worker's Day the workers who gave their lives for your eight hour work day.

You are truly one of the worst pieces of shit to ever post on this board. Start giving up your paycheck for reparations now and then you can shut the fuck up about your racist blasts.

:lol:

I’d say almost all of them. Some are a slam dunk like “Willie, Mickey and the Duke” (or maybe Centerfield), Satisfaction, ELO’s version of Roll Over Beethoven. Others might be a worthy challenge.

You’re lucky you share a birthday with Willie Mays. He’ll be 93.

My notable birthday on May 8 will be 69. For some reason I’m feeling a little younger right now.
