I love this thread, so funny and fascinating. I also thought of another thing about my near perfect self (Sarcasm, comin at ya) I was once hit on by one of the stars of a popular 70's TV show in Chicago, I was here visiting friends and went out to a bar, and this woman came on to me. She told me how she loved horses, but even more, cowboys. Well I didn't know who she was, and I had a girlfriend at the time. My friends thought I was crazy, because she's a TV star, and when they told who she was, I still didn't know. AND, I, the poor broke bastard, bought her a drink! She was there filming a rotten TV show that was canceled after the first season, and I've never heard of her since, but it was her, that I know, because she gave me her first name. Talk about making a good decision, at least once I did. Who needs that kinda life?

Kimfromlongisland--So what, who hasn't? JK although I prefer Family Video, they rent porn.

Who needs porn when you have a hot chick with big tits willing to have sex ANYWHERE!
TapDuncan
That reminds me of the hot chick in engraving kiosk at the plaza, she went to prom with my friend, put out nada, until a year later with me, they (boobs) were really bordering on obnoxious, but no complaints here. (Is this out loud? I have a wife and a family to protect, ah fuck it)

She always wanted to be a June bride and elope to Reno like True Californians. When we R-U-N-D O-F-T together, my divorce became final before hers. So, every day, I would ask her to marry me; then stop myself and say, "Oh, that's right. You're an encumbered woman." I did this every day until HER divorce was final. Then I shut up. It took her about three weeks to finally stamp her little foot and say, "I Wanna Be Married!" So we bought a case of Domaine Chandon Champagne seconds from my future sister-in-law for 1/4 of the retail price and headed up to Reno where we were married by a woman minister who sounded like Georgie Jessel's granddaughter. When we got the license there, the clerk didn't ask me any questions at all. She asked Dogwoman,

"Which marriage is this for YOU, honey?"

"You didn't ask HIM that.", Dogwoman replied.

"No! But I AM asking you.", was the clerks response.

Janet had to mutter a chagrined,"Third."

I told her that the third time IS the charm, especially for a witch like her.

I am not French nor am I an Algerian. I can play certain songs by The Cure on an old Casio keyboard and I did play a rather convincing anti-hero in my 6th grade class's production of "Happiness is a Warm Puppy". Only recently of which have I learned was a driving force behind Beatle Paul's favorite White song which is a stunning piece, in and of itself, by employing 5 movements and at least three separate time signatures all in the span of two minutes and forty-five seconds.

Oh, and I've never had sex in a Blockbuster...or with Twizzlers, for what its worth

How is Dogwoman doing Ish? She's been on my mind these days. Tell her I said hey.

And btw, you can't go to Egypt. Period. I said so. But you are more than welcome in Detroit. I believe it is Pontiac (or one of the suburbs) that has more Arabs per capita than any place outside the Middle East. So if its culture you are looking for, we have it.

If its danger, well you could always drive in Detroit during rush hour!

My grandfather was a "hell and brimstone" Southern Baptist preacher and got paid $7 a week.

My great, great, great, great grandfather William Poage, traveled with Daniel Boone to Kentucky and helped build Boonesborough. He's mentioned in many books regarding Boone. His daughter was the fourth white child born in KY.

I've met and talked to a few famous people: George Harrison, Jeff Lynne(ELO), Chuck Berry, Robin Zander(Cheap Trick) and George Carlin.

One thing I've never mentioned....I wanted to be a rock singer.

Vincent Price, Dick Van Dyke, John Ritter, and Jordana Brewster, composer Roger Sessions, civil libertarian Roger Nash Baldwin, historian Mercy Otis Warren, educator Kingman Brewster, Jr., and investor Warren Buffett.

And I am adopted, so it wasn't until I found my biological parents that I learned of my ancestry. My biological father descended from Mr. Doty.

Pikers! I'm looking at #20 in a couple of months.

I sense I'm supposed to buy something REALLY expensive, but I'm married to this woman who claims not to want or like jewelry. Nonetheless, am I right in guessing that I'd perhaps better rethink my Vespa plan?

I kinda had sex on top of some kind of abandoned grain storage building near Chicago once. But I hate heights and I don't know how I got talked in to climbing up there and I was thinking more about getting down than getting off so it didn't work out very well. Forget the Mile High Club. I couldn't even manage the 60 Feet High Club.

Last year they were being imported into the US. As of January they're being sold directly by dealers. I wish they'd update their website, but there's a list of dealers there:

I have a masters degree and I still don't know my right from my left.... it's like I have a mental block or something.... I have to stop and think about it when I have to give people directions.... and I call it wrong all the time. I just can't get it straight in my head for some reason.


Along that same line - I have no internal compass. If I'm driving, say, west, down a street that I don't recognize, and I have to turn to go, say, south, I won't know what direction to turn. I'll turn a random direction and see if the street numbers go the right way. If they don't, I'll turn around.

Sometimes I'll go the wrong way twice in a row. For example, my destination is north-east of my location. I'm heading east, and I want to turn north. I'll turn south, and then to fix it, I'll turn west. Then I usually pull into a parking lot and bang my head on the steering wheel.

I have quite the opposite problem. My wife loves to talk politics and we agree with each other most of the time. The argument comes when trying to decide who said what first and who said it better.

Well, I do enjoy the company of my two kids who LOVE to talk politics. Alas, they're not too much into nuance and gray areas. If a member of congress is a bad guy for his vote one day, they're quite baffled when the next day on another vote they want to call him names, and I have to tell them, "No, this time he did the right thing."

Sometimes, yes, it's like RRMB, because we'll get into discussing one of those situations, I'll tell them how one Senator did a terrible job on FISA, but came through on something else, and my 15 year old son will turn, point at me and shriek "GATEKEEPER!"

At 13 and 15 they're definitely of the "Fool me once, and you're a corrupt lying bastard who will never redeem himself no matter how many future votes you make that I agree on" school.

We were watching McClellan's testimony the other day, my daughter asked who it was. I said it was GWB's former press secretary and she looked at the screen and yelled "LIAR!" And there I am trying to tell her she's right, but explaining what he's saying now. It must be a lot like English class for them, where all the rules have these ifs, ands and buts.

Well, the upside is that my wife DOES ask me to fill out the sample ballot so she "knows exactly how to vote." Precisely one of the kinds of voter I despise, except when I get to decide.

Hey, thanks so MUCH! There's a dealer just a hop skip and a jump away! I think I've got a weekend plan to go looking!

Any idea on what they're doing with the mark up?

Last time I looked - probably 9 months ago, I went to an EnviroAuto-type lot in Glendale, CA. That's where they had them for $35k. They had USED models, Smart and other variations, for $35k and up.

Though the Smart is much nicer, I was intrigued how so many of the other interiors are dead ringers for the 60s-70s era VW Beetle. Painted metal shell inside, vinyl upholstery with about 1/4" of padding over the springs. They just ALL look as though they're made in Moldova or China, and for the Chinese and/or Moldovians.
