Maybe when Sundae Girl wins that lottery you can see about borrowing some from her.

""Oh hey lhatcher, I just noticed your location. (Am I the only one who pays attention to those? I like to have a spatial reference for where posts are coming from...) Why are you moving to Houston?""

my husband's job is moving there and 'wither thou goest' and all that, I'm with him. I can be happy anywhere.

Is there any place you would absolutely NOT live under any circumstances?

Not so much! Thanks though- Been to doctors and guess what? I don't need meds. They turn me away..........Really, you're too kind though.
And my quote? E.M. Cioran- Metaphysical Philosopher/Poet. This quote is for anyone who is deeply interested in their chosen field. There are different views on Classical Metaphysics I realize, but that's not the issue is it?
Am I crazy? Yes. Do I "need" "help"? No. Doing great!
And genuinely more happy than most of the people I can think of.....If that makes me crazy- so be it!!!

Nothing wrong with the Charlatans. Yeah they're good. As for all time? I don't know about that.
Wait a minute......Why would you go to prison for public intoxication, seems like a stiff sentence for a minor problem.......care to elaborate?
Huh,you must have tried to rob a bank too.

Where are my manners?.....welcome!

I was underage, stumbling home. I guess that's the policy. I had to take off my shoelaces and belt, then fell asleep in my own cell on a metal cot with drainage holes drilled in it. I slept well though. They asked if my friends were going to pick me up and would I like a photo taken, which I wish I had done. Then they gave me a plastic cup of not cold enough milk and let me go at 7am that same morning. There was a $40 fine.

What's wrong with the Charlies? I also like the Stones and U2 but those seem like lazy choices that deserve your guff.

Yea sounds a little more like jail. Not actually "prison" but hey, great story.
I think you passed though. I didn't but I think they are letting me get by on the sliding scale. I don't know some mention of a quota of this or that or the other.

Jeez Simon, I was going to give you a perfect score until you said the Stones.
