Ginger helps to avoid sea legs on land. Not sure about prosthetics though.

GreenDragon Jun 12th, 2012 07:50 AM

So, who supplies all the sea legs people get? This sounds like quite a scam - legs get stolen at airports and given to those traveling on the sea! I'm sure each person in this viscous circle makes money off these transactions. We must stop the madness!!!

Dayenu Jun 12th, 2012 07:55 AM

Before it was the captain "chicken of the sea" who supplied the legs. Imported, they were expensive!

Now that he's out of work, I don't know.

GreenDragon Jun 12th, 2012 11:55 AM

Ah, so they were chicken legs! Sorry, Charlie!

Kicking this up one more time.

olesouthernbelle Jan 24th, 2013 11:13 AM

Because you can-can.

ronkala Jan 24th, 2013 01:06 PM

That is really stretching it.

easytraveler Jan 24th, 2013 02:13 PM

Yes, but De-Knees told me I had to toe the line and kick it up. I can't figure out her ankle.

Dayenu Jan 24th, 2013 02:51 PM

:)) oldie but goodie

schmerl Jan 24th, 2013 06:13 PM

Oh my.....this thread has really got a foothold!

ronkala Jan 24th, 2013 07:30 PM

Time to kick the bucket on this one?

SeeHag Jan 24th, 2013 07:45 PM

I am not sure I have a good understanding of this. Time to get out of this joint.

spirobulldog Jan 24th, 2013 07:57 PM

I hiked a trail this summer in Shenandoah. It was called Limberlost Trail. I thought of this thread.


I also keep waiting for a leg to pop out of a bag on that show Baggage Battles.

andrews98682 Jan 24th, 2013 08:34 PM

I love all the kneejerk reactions to the initial post.

clarkgriswold Jan 24th, 2013 09:11 PM

What steps do we need to take to have this thread make like the leg and vanish?

Tomsd Jan 25th, 2013 03:22 AM

Somehow - this reminds me of the old song/ballad of Charlie riding the MTA and the chorus: Will he ever return? :)

I hope Kevin Ware of Louisville doesn't see this. At least, he seems to be on his way to recovery.

cathies Apr 6th, 2013 10:41 PM

I always get a 'kick' out of this thread. This and the one about packing bed linen are both fantastic.

schmerl Apr 7th, 2013 04:57 AM

Oh come on.....isn't it time to BOOT this thread out of here?!

spirobulldog Apr 7th, 2013 05:15 AM

I always think of this thread when I eat at IHOP.

This thread and the woman describing her hike to Angels Landing in Zion NP are my favs. http://fodors.com/community/united-s...ryce-vegas.cfm

I was just listening to The Diane Rehm Show - she's interviewing amputees - and Diane mentioned that she once picked up the wrong bag in Pittsburgh, got back to her hotel room and opened it up to find a prosthetic leg in it. Wonder if she was the cause of all this?

clarkgriswold May 16th, 2013 08:54 AM

That would be the pitts for Diane, she'd be reamed by Tracy. But maybe the naysayers who thought that people dont pack peg legs will re-think their knee jerk reactions about what can happen on the 1st leg of a long journey, truth be toed.

Ozarksbill Jun 3rd, 2013 09:20 AM

Oh please, won't youall leggo! Seriously, I'm humming "I get a kick out of you."

clarkgriswold Jun 3rd, 2013 06:57 PM

Sad that we don't have tracy to kick around anymore, ironic that she ended up getting the boot.

Malone Aug 14th, 2014 09:11 PM

ttt

Dave_Ohio Aug 15th, 2014 08:48 AM

"ttt" -- Appreciate your topping this, Malone.
Am I going out on a limb in saying that this lame thread has run its course? :?

ronkala Aug 15th, 2014 03:14 PM

probably Dave, people might get up in arms over this. Speaking of arms......

GreenDragon Feb 9th, 2015 04:09 AM

Toppity for nukesafe

Ozarksbill Feb 9th, 2015 07:21 AM

Some people just can't leggo.

starrs Feb 9th, 2015 07:38 AM

"Oh please, won't youall leggo! Seriously, I'm humming "<s>I get a kick out of you</s> Let It Go.""

clarkgriswold Feb 9th, 2015 09:28 AM

Let it go just don't let U.S Airways have it.

Dayenu Feb 9th, 2015 11:04 PM

Maybe Tracy is still here, just traveling. The first leg of her trip is to Buffalo. From there she will wing it.

spirobulldog Feb 10th, 2015 02:51 PM

I find this Humerus

Dayenu Oct 23rd, 2017 05:37 PM

One friend had her boot taken off, another put on a few days ago, another one today... I wonder if this thread will cheer them up.

razzledazzle Oct 24th, 2017 02:37 AM

razzledazzle Oct 24th, 2017 02:41 AM

What a classic, Dayenu, from the good 'ol days of the Lounge ~sigh~ Thank You ! It did give me a smile :))

schmerl Oct 24th, 2017 02:59 AM

I thought of this thread the other day when I saw a thread about strange thread topics.

Dayenu May 5th, 2021 03:59 PM

The story continues...




sunbum1944 May 7th, 2021 08:56 PM

Can't top this post.

clarkgriswold May 9th, 2021 02:43 PM

Why did this thread hop over from the lounge? Wasn't the lounge closed and private back then? I guess it has better footing in the U.S. forum.
