Dude that is known a the beauanderos design. I think he even posed for it (Man on the bottom)
If I have the gift of prophesy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to move mountains but do not have love I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned but do not have love it profits me nothing.

In Soviet Russia, you don't own coins - coins own you!

Come on, man! Put a spoiler alert in there somewhere! Some of us haven't gotten past Rocky 1.

My apologies. Meanwhile back at the ranch, Gorbachev's port wine stain has all the Russian "women" bodybuilders swooning.

Aww, Doc. I just laughed up a kidney because of you.

I remember a friend wanted m to join the wrestling team in highschool. I also thought wrestling on TV was a bit silly. He assured me it wasnt like that, and it came down to skill etc. So I showed up for trials one year. I couldnt stop laughing. there was lots of grunting and lots of dudes on their knees. I didnt stay around long enough to see what it was like in the showers after practice.

I'm guessing they didn't win the Olympics that year, and wanted to remember it truthfully instead of fondly. Or hell maybe both.

I had a buddy in HS that was trying to get me to go out for the football team. "Come on, man," he'd say, "Stop being a 'band F*G' and play a real man's sport." My reply went something like, "so let me get this straight...in the band, we have the best looking girls in the school. Lots of clothing gets changed on the busses to the games, co-ed busses, and when we stay over somewhere, pretty much co-ed rooms. On the other hand, the football team has beefy cheerleaders (who, I might add, take a separate bus). The team travels together, plays a sport involving rolling around on the ground together, then they go take a shower together. Gee, where do I sign?" He gave up trying after that
