Is Tommy Lee going to pay for the wedding?

wow

Even the members of Motley Crue would run from this one. Talk about your past coming back to bite you.

Mamma mia!

If a member of Motley Crue is Leo’s father, than my money is behind Vince Neil. Since they both have blond hair.

Hasn’t Leo’s mom slimmed down since we first met her?

I think Leo wins this round. (Not that it’s a competition.)

How does he DO it? How doesTrudeau seemingly keep his finger on the pulse of people young and old, their hopes, aspirations, foibles and delusions – in the military, in boardrooms, in Hollywood, in trailer homes, in gated communities, in the homes of ordinary Americans – if there is such a thing as “ordinary” anymore?

I thought SHE was band relations!

Sherbett…true. A sure bet, that. True dat. But we had fun. And we WERE fun, too, that’s how you do it. And totally unscrew a couple of generations. That’s a couple of escapees the neo confederate aka Conservatives weren’t able to capture and pin down.

I was cut off by a woman wearing an eyepatch and texting while she was driving

I was cut off and nearly run off the road by a woman with an eyepatch who was texting while she was driving

@sherbertLots of people who are blind in one eye have driver’s licenses. Depth perception is helpful but not essential.

I think he should run for congress!!

wise up Leo … RUN!

At least Leo’s mom seems to be more focused.

A friend of mine with one glass eye drove a car (legally) for 25 years until he passed away from unrelated causes.

There are people all over the world doing it every day. Ain’t no thing.

@ rmacprivate

“And how is it that he can have Leo drive a car with no depth perception?”_____

Depth perception is a big help, naturally. But even with one eye, you can make judgements. If that car that’s coming toward you looks little, it’s probably a good distance away. If it looks big, it’s a lot closer.And if it goes from little to big in a flash, you should probably try to dodge it.

@rmacprivate – Stock car racer Ernie Irvan raced NASCAR (Daytona Speedway) with sight in only one eye years ago.

@sherbert; “how does he do it?”We, the unwashed, have jobs (or not). GBT has “staff” ie;‘assistants,’ trainees, researchers, co-ordinators, underlings,‘behind the scener’s’ ‘go-fers,’and those that one doesn’t see behind the panels that are fed us every day. I’m not sure if he mows his own lawn, or does any light fixture repair, but the other stuff I’m pretty sure of.

This can’t be the first time someone called for a request like that.At least her goal is a little more realistic than whatever J.J. had planned.

I’ll bet money that the father was a roadie.

Is it safe to go to this website off the Lego reservation? I am intriguied but wary. Thanks.

Wait, the car has no depth perception?

rmac, i was born nearly blind in my left eye, and my depth perception has always been shot. but you learn to compensate. couldn’t catch a baseball until 7th grade, but i learned.

It was the dude with one eye, in the center of his forehead that concerned me! Leo’s mom is looking for HIM as the father, but it might have happened at a party.

It’s been at least 20 years. She could have been really hot around 1990. I tell the 20-somethings now not to have any pictures taken of them – they’ll just depress themselves in about a quarter-century.

depth perception is better in daylight. My mom lost an eye and is fine driving during the day but night itme is a complete NO.

You really know how to make enemies quickly..how about you pan the Stones, Led Zep and the Beatles to get the complete set.

Probably wasn’t so fugly back in the day.

Depth perception is probably only effective up to about 10 meters (33 feet) anyway. As stated by a number of posters, a lot of “one eyed” people drive and do fine.

A lot of one-eyed commentators seem to survive in the sports world, too :)

Can’t wait to see the ceremony. Since it will be held at Walden, any chance of Rev Sloan performing the ceremony?

Early in their career, Tommy Lee dated a big, ugly girl whom they called “Bullwinkle” because she looked like a moose.

Just sayin’ …
