Ditto.

Worshipped by my man, yeah.

Sorry guys, but my fantasy doesn't involve ANY other chicks.

To each their own. It's a role playing game. Nothing more. I happen to be very adventurous that way. But I know I am not the norm, so oh well. Carry on.

Gosh sugarpop, it sounds kind of off beat but I'm open minded, so perhaps if you were to demonstrate for/on me just what you're describing, I could embrace your recommendation.

Lets just think about the clean-up/ putting the house back in order for a moment. Who do we think is gonna do all that?

Aliantha · 12-01-2008, 04:05 PM

I don't even think Ducks would go in for that.

I think someone's been reading far too many erotic novels lately. lol

Personally I'd go in for about half of it, but the whole goddess thing isn't realistic imo.

Haven't read any of this, but offhand, hiring a cleaning service for the day as part of the package of presents comes to mind.

BrianR · 12-09-2008, 08:13 PM

I prefer good knives in the kitchen. Chef quality. Hold an edge forever and I don't mean Ginsu.

classicman · 12-09-2008, 09:34 PM

Henkels or Wustof for me, but thanks. I've had my set over 20 years.

JA Henckels and Wusthof are both damned good -- good knives last. I go up against these every working day of my life. Know what? 80% of the time I win -- not because I'm such a silvertongued Esso Bee, but because Cutco is just that good. Henckels is among the best you can get in a store; Cutco is the best you can get anywhere.

My immediate reaction . . .. "WTF? Is he having knife fights at work??"

classicman · 12-10-2008, 05:02 PM

HA ha ha ha - Cutco is the best in your mind and thats about it - My set rocks and has been for over 20 years. My rib knife is still sharp enough to take your arm off. The french knife which I use all the time is outstanding and has put up with much abuse. My moms bread knife which she left in the oven was replaced without even being returned to them. Quality and service have been unbelievable.

actually, we saw a show on tv where they were talking about samurai swords and other really sharp blades. They did a whole segment on cutco knives. IIRC They were the best commercially available knives in their opinion.
I looove the ones we have. need moar.
