A doorknob lock? That doesn't even count.
I also had a doorman and I lived on the fifteenth floor!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Least secure place to live!! Anyone who looks half-way respectable can just walk in!!! t /paranoia
I don't lock my door because I don't want to lock myself out.
This is actually the thing I like best about having a deadbolt -- I know I have my keys when I leave, because I need them to lock the door.

The problem with my deadbolts is that it's a dicey proposition whether the locks will give up my keys afterwards. Also, flimsy old wooden doors not quite living up to the 18" fortress-like walls they're set in.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I probably shouldn't mention that I left the keys in the door all night a few days ago, and that my building is totally open, with no hallways or anything. If you go out my front door, you are outside.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I'm not always good about locking the door when i am home. ( I do check before bed) . But I have gotten better because - if the breeze is just right it will blow open. Which is disconcerting when you are in the shower.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jackie Chan movies don't make much money in the US.
Get with the program, Americans!!! What is your problem? But $20M for Tucker? Sheeit. How much does Generic Black Leading Man get paid these days?
Wait...there must be a site for actor paydays, right? Anyone know of one?

That with the plotting, the acting and the diction, his movies made for English audiences are interchangeable? Why watch a new one?
I say this as someone who saw The Tuxedo.
Don't feel bad for Jackie Chan, ita.

Without looking, I am guessing $12 million on average. Check what Jamie Foxx is making for Miami Vice.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Wait, they are making a movie of Miami Vice ?? Complete with teal neckties and everything?
I don't know how I feel about Jamie Foxx in a teal necktie. And, does he get to play the Don Johnson character, or is he stuck as the sidekick?
