TAR: As much as I can understand being pissed off at being Yielded, the charges of the blondes "playing dirty" by using it are as idiotic as when people on Survivor are shocked and appalled that another player has lied to them about how they're going to vote -- it's part of the game, people! Deal with it!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Give me your wallet, a UHaul, and four hours in your apartment.
I can recommend this for a good time.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Today is the first day of the rest of my life job....

Weirdly rare here, given how plentiful they were in, say, Montreal. I figured carpets made more sense in cold weather places, but there must be something else I'm missing.
I wonder if it is an age of the apartment. The older the place the more likely to have hardwood?
I still want a 20s-ish vintage, adobe-styled-after-um-I-dunno cottage house like in the older parts of my hometown. Wood floors, lots of arched doorways, neat wall niches, tin roof.
sara you have just described my new house, except no tin roof. I'll have to take pictures soon.
ooooh! new job day! good luck to all the new job folks.
