Happy Haunted Friday peoples!

Let’s all play nice today, even if the topic doesn’t pertain to you. (Blanca, folks on here don’t actually date it seems, lol)

I’d say frightful is relative, I’d say my experiences were more annoying than anything.

The most frightful ever was the dude who I had to pick up, then asked me to make a quick stop by his friends house. What he didn’t tell me is that he was picking up some weed. Then he asked if we could go to a motel and have sex to prove I was “down” for him. Apparently since I went to school 5 hours away, he needed some assurance that long distance could work for us. To him, that assurance was supposed to be given through my pants.

Needless to say it didn’t end well for old boy!

Totally unrelated but frightful none the less.

On Momania they are talking about that show Jon and Kate plus 8. Family with 8 kids. I havent seen it but I one day last week were talking kids and I was going to ask if anyone has seen they show 17 and counting. About the Dugger family in Arkansas. They have 17 kids(oldest is 20-youngest is 1) and Mom is preggie again with baby 18. That woman has been preggie at least 135 months of her life.

My experiences have been like yours was. Females with some deviant sexual tastes.

There was the chick that was into feces (literally).

Just like the intro that Biggie had to his song on “Life After Death”. It was strange.

Never thought that I would run into someone who was into that. That didn’t last very long.

Also, there was a different female that was into being choked. So, I guess I could’ve gotten all Wayne Brady on her and Choked a Bytch out. That was wierd. She really got off on that near death thing. I left her buck-ed naked on top of her bed. I didn’t want things to go to far. That puts my yearly New Years Resolution at jeopardy (which is to stay out of jail).

I’ve read and seen “Rising Sun”.

Truth one song that I just loathe is “baby it’s cold outside”, and when I was preparing to leave Mase walked up behind me singing it. Without even turning around I reminded him “you know I hate that song, right? and I have to go to work.” He just laughed and said “oh bummer”.

But I could have slept in this morning. For sure.

Kym I admire Kate and Jon, but that other family is frightening. I know the Lord said be fruitful and multiply but he didn’t mean for one family to do it all my themselves. But whatever floats your boat.

My friend Doc says that woman’s body is going to fail prematurely. Giving birth takes a lot out of you and it takes about a year after birthing before you are back to normal. She is not giving her body time to recuperate.

The Truth Blanca those frequent flier mailes are piling up. You must really hate being alone. Not really, actually. I kind of love hanging out solo in my house working on things, relaxing etc., but I like meeting new people, as well. I guess you could say I meet people fairly easily, though I definitely don’t go out with every fellow who asks. I’m in my 20s and having a good time. No more, no less.

Truth & Raqi

You know what?

Last night, I got home first and prepared dinner (which was Baked Tilapia, yellow rice, and steamed borccoli & cauliflower). I voted yesterday at the Fulton County Government Center. Then did some other errands. I didn’t get to work until 4 PM. I left at 5 PM (1 hour of work.)

I waited for Mrs. PG to get home. When she arrived, we ate dinner about 7:15 pm. When 8:00 PM arrived, I looked at her and said the following:

“Baby, I just want to let you know that I am a grow azz man, and I don’t have anything to prove. I’ve done allnighters before. So, I am gonna say the following to you: Good Night.”

I climbed in the bed at 8:00 and watched about 1/2 of an episode of Mike Tomlin..I mean Omar Epps…and Hugh Laurie on House. I don’t remember it ending. I awoke at 8:00 AM this morning. 12 freakin’ hours of sleep. Then, on top of that, this the fall back weekend and I get one more hour of sleep.

The only frightful date I had was a first date with this doctor that one of my friends introduced me too. Not only did he look “different”, we had a flat tire on this dark deserted road and I had to stand out there and hold the flash light for him. I was scurred. I didn’t know anything about that man and when I say deserted I mean the rats didn’t even walk that street.

Beautiful I am normally a pleasant person, willing to help people with work and whatnot. However I have a few donts that my co-workers just act like they dont understand:

Dont approach me as I am walking up to my desk asking me something work related. Give me a chance to put my ish down and settle b4 you start bugging me

Dont ask me anything work related before my work day starts. Just because I am here at 8:45 doesnt mean I start working. I work from 9-6, not a minute before

And lastly Dont think that I am going to keep answering the same questions errday. I give you 2x’s to get it, after that you are on blast (“didnt I tell you that twice yesterday?!).

Needless to say they have started with me today…..maybe b/c its Halloween they thought I would be nice. No smiles today, all headphones til lunch! >;0(

I just think that athletes sometimes attract females that have like a list of crazy azz shyt to do. I guess that we were on that list. So, I figure that she thought that she would get a 2 for 1 and scratch 2 things off that list.

That really sad thing was she was the spittin’ image of Lisa Nicole Carson (it wasn’t her), the star that I really had a thing for back then. So, really could have had her way with me….lol. But that was something out of left field.

I grew up with a real dinner time. We sat at the table and ate dinner. No TV. Just us, talking. Even if we bought dinner, my parents insisted on nightly sit down dinners. We played sports and all that. But that time was sacred. I learned the proper way of setting a table and cutting food.

That is something that I guess is a habit with me. We eat dinner at the dinner table. Very rarely, do we take the trays into the living room. My wife and I still do it.

Can’t be too busy to not take time for each other. Sometimes, dinner time is the only time.

Made aware of a lack, they now can focus on you as the person who can fill that empty space. Remember: most of us are lazy. To relieve our feelings of boredom or inadequacy on our own takes too much effort; letting someone else do the job is both easier and more exciting. The desire to have someone fill up our emptiness is the weakness on which all seducers prey

That is what it is called. (I don’t know if the spelling is correct, but I know that is what it is called)

I know that I have strong hands. So, I just didn’t want to test it. For example, I have broken full glass peanut butter jars trying to open them. Luckily, most peanut butter jars are now plastic. I’ve cut my hands on those glass jars.

So, choking was just something that made me uneasy.

As you all know after discovering I was going to have guest at the house I had to come up with a meal plan because the cupboard was nearly bare. I ordered the HB meal, had M pick it up while I went to Krogers. Got home around 6:30pm, M had put food in fridge so I had to get it ready. Fam left hospital and arrived around qtr to 8. We had dinner, set around, talked and drank tea/wine/coffee for a million hours, (oh yeah the cheesecake from HB…to die for), I excused myself around 11:30, took a bath and got into bed a little after 12am. About 20 minutes later (my spouse was home after nearly a month of no together time) yada, yada, yada, I fell asleep and my alarm clock went off at 6am. And now here I am talking to the gang.

I am sleepy.

Hey folks!

Yes, I have had a memorable ‘awful’ date. And I’ve also been on a date (no fault of his own) that turned out a frightful mess!

On this one date everything was going well, until at the dinner table this fool thought he was taking me to rent a hotel room after dinner. That’s when I SNAPPED ROYALLY!!! All my sweetness was gon’, and my otherhalf “helped” his happy self! Right there in the restaurant among other patrons (sure did) we went back and forth a few times, the server/s came out. People looking, I’m standing up (yea I had gotten infuriated!!!) telling this dude where he could go, and tryin to walk off, the server tryin’ to calm me down? Then the server asked would I be ok? I told him I was fine, but if he could get someone to get this fool out my face. Dude started walking off and still talking bout I didn’t need to do all that. I told him – just lose my number! He was like cool bish! my feeling were a lil hurt ‘bout how that sorry dude tripped sad.

Then there was this date I was on, and an argument broke out and one person had a gun at the place. Lawd! Come to find out the person with the gun had found out his girl had, or was cheating …“got caught cheating”. This BIG fight broke out; there were a lot of dudes. We had to run for our lives. This happened at a local high school football game. Before we could get out, there were cops everywhere!! My heart was going 70mph the entire time! Folks were running, I was praying, crying…scared. Dude was like; Dayum, ain’t this about a bish! We found/ran ourselves to his truck. The cops allowed us and a few other ppl to get out of that mess, but a lot of people got stuck in the mayhem.

Now - How is everyone in this fine Friday? :)

Never did, but my friend J had a scary incident when he went to visit his brother in Indianapolis smtime last year,he tells me.They went to sme nite club and there he started dancing with this white chic.They were all over each other in there and i guess it became kinda steamy.They agreed to leave out together and go do the nasty at a secure location.So they hoped into his rental car and headed to a local hotel. As they were romping on the bed and J was trying to get his fingures wet in the sweet jar down there,thats when he felt the prick of what seemed to be a projectile.He proceeded with caution,unzipping and all that.Thats when all hell broke loose and lo and be hold,the chic had a some tiny,but a dizzle all the same! Get outa here! he told me he exclaimed,pushing the poor thing outa the room. I thoght u knew,thats what shim reportedly said. My friend was shaken by the inicident, he tells me.He is such a raging bull and i know he was ready for the big kill. We had a good laugh.

I guess the idea of going dancing tonight is squashed. I heard my uncle-in-law (I guess that’s what he is LOL) who has a failed marriage in his past telling M that “he needed to spend some time with his wife and he (the uncle) will set with his father”. I wasn’t eavesdropping but I probably wasn’t suppose to hear them talking. But M asked if I wanted to go dancing tonight. There is probably nothing to do today that is not center around Halloween.

I’ve been on a ton of bad dates in my time, and being recently married doesn’t make me long for those times again. Scary dates include girls that had more than one personality (nice and mean), ones that had no sense of humor, and some that had nothing interesting to say.

Funny one I remember was taking a girl out for the second or third time and we walk up to a restaurant. I put our name in for a table and it’s going to be about 25 minutes. Complete freak out - she couldn’t wait that long to eat (didn’t know at the time that she was so hungry!). So we walk around looking for another restaurant that we can get into fast. Thai. She proceeds to tell me that she has a pet squirrel (weird), and I couldn’t help from thinking that something she might order in the restaurant could be related to her pet. The restaurant is now closed. The girl is gone. I wish her well.

Rell great post. These chicks are claiming independence on one hand and can’t wait to get out of the burden of being with themselves on the other. I find it more honorable to go out looking for azz than what they do.

I think that every place is having something around Halloween.

I see that even Loca Luna (which is one of our favorite places) is having “Monster Bash”. We love the latin dances.

I’m sure that is how I really got her. I showed her that I could ballroom dance. She tries to get me to watch the dancing show on ABC. I did watch Mel B. when she was on there. She did a magnificent job. I usually saw it on the elliptical while at LA Fitness. But, I don’t really watch it on my own plus now I have an IPOD so I don’t even watch those TVs anymore.

Being an college athlete had his perks, and being able to schedule my classes first allowed me to take Ballroom Dance as a PE credit.

Very cute guy went to high school in the SWATs. So he comes to the house and my older brother was the only other person there. So I am getting dressed and I hear the doorbell ring. I knew my brother would get it so I finished getting dressed. After a few minutes I noticed I didnt hear my brother talking to anyone. I go downstairs and still dont hear anyone. So I proceed to walk out to the carport where I see my brother and my date duking it out!! Straight throwing blows!! Fortunately two of my male cousins came over at that moment and broke up the fight. Old boy left and I never saw/heard from him again. Til this day I dont know why my brother didnt like him but he told me “he aint welcome here…eva…I’m tellin you now”.

Particularly in the early phases of a seduction, learn to make everything you say and do a kind of insinuation. Insinuate doubt with a comment here and there about other people in the victim’s life, making the victim feel vulnerable. Slight physical contact insinuates desire, as does a fleeting but memorable look, or an unusually warm tone of voice, both for the briefest of moments. A passing comment suggests that something about the victim interests you; but keep it subtle, your words revealing a possibility, creating a doubt.

Believe me. I do as well. But there is a line. Shyt was a bit too far.

I’ve dealt with chick that like pain (electo-shock her nipples???), those that like being watched (the afternoon condo balconey thing around Colony Square, that I’ve talked about) & those that like being watched with other females. So, I haven’t been against kink.

We all have some quirks, but there has to be some lines drawn too.

I love Sweet Potatoes.

My grandpa used to grow them, and even had a shed in the Forest Park Farmers Market back in the day.

So, we had to learn to like them. They were all over the house. My mom just started inventing Sweet Potato recipes.

Now, I get them when we go to Outback or Longhorn instead of a regular potato. They come with honey butter and cinnamon/brown sugar.

The carrot souffle’ is good.

Cemeeli Too funny!! Girl I wish I had parts 2 & 3 to tell! I just wish I had known about them even knowing each other prior to that. I kept asking my brother what the problem was and he gave me typical big brother responses: he aint right for you, I dont like him, he’s too old (he and my brother were the same age), etc. One of my cousins did say that their beef was from some years before but that was all he would give. I didnt even get to tell old boy ‘bye’ or anything!! Since he never contacted me again I just chalked it up to my brother being right, he wasnt for me.

Remember: to sow a seductive idea you must engage people’s imaginations, their fantasies, their deepest yearnings. What sets the wheels spinning is suggesting things that people already want to hear—the possibility of plea¬ sure, wealth, health, adventure. In the end, these good things turn out to be precisely what you seem to offer them. They will come to you as if on their own, unaware that you insinuated the idea in their heads.

The Truth Blanca. Next week we’ll hear about this guy and why he didn’t work out. At some point you have to stop looking at others and start looking at yourself. Dude, welcome to my life. I’ve been doing that for a long time; in fact, I used to blame myself for everything, but I learned that isn’t particularly healthy, either. I learn from my mistakes, I learn from others’ too. But I’ve realized it’s not always about people doing things “wrong” as much as it just being the right combination of people. But good question - why are you single?

One year he hid in the trees and jump down behind them with a hockey mask on.

Another year, he actually got a real casket and when the wife answered the door, it would open and he would get out of it dressed like a zombie with the candy.

We picked up candy for weeks around our houses from kids just leaving the whole plastic pumpkin shaped candy collectors on the ground and runnin’.

Finally, the reason insinuation works so well is not just that it bypasses people’s natural resistance. It is also the language of pleasure. There is too little mystery in the world; too many people say exactly what they feel or want. We yearn for something enigmatic, for something to feed our fan¬ tasies. Because of the lack of suggestion and ambiguity in daily life, the person who uses them suddenly seems to have something alluring and full of promise. It is a kind of titillating game—what is this person up to? What does he or she mean? Hints, suggestions, and insinuations create a seductive atmosphere, signaling that their victim is no longer involved in the routines of daily life but has entered another realm.

I was set up on a date with a friend’s son. The son was very well educated and on the phone he was pleasure to talk to. However, in person he was a disaster. He invited me out for drinks I thought OK (I had a later date planned). We met at 5pm and he was not attractive but not everyone can be beautiful so I ordered a drink he order a 22 oz steak with shrimp, a salad, a loaded baked potato and water. He didn’t drink but yet invited me for drinks.

I then I gave the guy a second date. We went to a cute little place and he dropped the door on me. What was I thinking a man opening a door? Then he proceeded to have no manners and was rude. He even asked how many sexual partners I had been with and how much money I made. He informed me that I was pretty and a pretty girlfriend could help his career. Then when the food came his fork became a shovel. He put his face down at table level and shoveled his food into his mouth.

After that, he started calling me 10 times a day & this went on for a year. I answered twice trying to be nice and he was telling me what I needed to do in my life, where to shop, what to think, how to dress, where I should hang out and how to spend my money.

Being nice lead to the date for hell that would not go away. He still calls from time to time even though I don’t answer the phone. He still leaves a voice mail.

Ask the gf if she plans on you paying for the both of them….

If she says no, good.

If she says yes, leave.

Leave and don’t look back, and when the call comes about “why?” say: “I thought I was out with your crazy twin and her friend. Do you know she asked me to pay for a woman I barely know? The itch needs counseling.”

Play it off like it never happened or ask her why she would do something like that…

Now, if it were me, I’d ask when the bill came or when I was expected to pay for the friend: “So, we all gettin in on tonight? Is that what this is for, the precursor?”

Trust, we made it work. She wanted a Waltz, and that is what she wanted. She wanted that song…I suggested others. However, she was getting neurotic about wanting that song. So, we altered the Waltz a little bit to make it work. She was getting a little sad about not be able to have the song that she wanted, so I agreed. We practiced and made song changes to make it work. So, I guess that it wasn’t a true waltz. But, it was a variation.

It was actually the song. We had a DJ, not a band.

Beautiful, you’re a fool. “The man of the hour” isn’t going to end the war in Iraq. He’s telling you that to get your dumbazz vote. Even if he does, Iran will move in, and we’ll be back a year later with more serious things to deal with. Think for yourself instead of doing the black thang.

Oooh, abc is a playboy. LOL

But I wouldn’t automatically assume that just because you date a lot you sleep around a lot too. I mean, she did state the last guy was around for 2 months, so I would assume with that one.

But guys who act wacky w/in 3 dates, I’d hope wouldn’t go that far!

Truth I gotcha man! I just made some cubeb steak w/gravy and rice last night. We can add an extra place at the table. We use high chairs though..you know us shorties! :0)

Jadrien My grandmother told all of her grandchildren that we were to always look out for one another. But my brother has always taken that role seriously! Your son will probabley do it naturally but it will help if Daddy enforces it.

Hey Page1908, how are you chica!!

Cemeeli now I must admit, when it comes to my siblings, I’ll cut ya if need be! Once when my brother and I were younger, we went away to camp for 2wks. Well he got stung by a bee (which at the time he was allergic to). When it came time for dinner, I didnt see him. I walked right over to his counselor (I was all of 9) and asked where my brother was. The counselor told me big brother had been stung and was laying down. I went right into the boys cabin where big brother was to see for myself. Well you know that caused a ruckus. The Director came after me and was screaming that I couldnt do that. I got in there and some girl was talking to my brother, ‘tending’ to him (and I didnt like her). I put my hands on my 9yr old hips and said “thats MY brother and I have to see about him”. Girlfriend looked at me and when she didnt move quick enough I was like “he dont need YOU”. She left and they called mom and she let them have it for trying to reprimand me.

We varied the dance…not the song.

We sped up the moves a little bit to more of a 4 time. We had a dance trainer that came up with the changes. We practiced them. It was her gift to us…she didn’t charge us since it was an experiment.

She even met with us the Thursday before to see how it looked.

I guess that it wasn’t a true waltz. Wasn’t slow enough. However, later we did get to show off the latin moves. Her family is originally from the carribean so they kinda enjoyed that.

• was thinking you could temper the dance itself (the waltz can/ has been done in 4/4 time).*

That is what happened. The dance was sped up instead of the song being slowed down.

Even though she wasn’t a Bridezilla, she did get a little neurotic in what she wanted. So, I figured that I would contact a friend and see if what she wanted could be pulled off without costing more money. She apparently had an idea of what she wanted. I didn’t really care as long as we didn’t go into debt over the wedding.

I told her repeatedly that while she cared about “the day”, I cared more about “the day after” and not starting off in a hole financially.

Wedding Costs can easily get out of hand if you don’t watch it. I was known as the “big meaney” for a while leading up to the wedding. So, I tried to make the dance thing work after nixing the Rolls Royce Limo Rentals and live band. Heck, I paid for enough alcohol with that open bar…

Lady: Really? That’s great, how much do they cost?

Guy: $15,000. But there really great seats, 50 yard line!

By Letter to the Red States

October 31, 2008 2:53 PM | Link to this

**Dear Red States:

If you manage to steal this election,too, we’ve decided we’re leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we’re taking the other Blue States with us. In case you aren’t aware, that includes California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all the Northeast. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation, and especially to the people of the new country of New California.

To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states. We get stem cell research and the best beaches. We get the Statue of Liberty. You get Dollywood.

We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom.

We get Harvard. You get Ole’ Miss.

We get 85% of America’s venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama.

We get two-thirds of the tax revenue, you get to make the red states pay their fair share.

Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22% lower than the Christian Coalition’s, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a bunch of single moms.

Please be aware that Nuevo California will be pro-choice and anti-war, and we’re going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once. If you need people to fight, ask your evangelicals. They have kids they’re apparently willing to send to their deaths for no purpose, and they don’t care if you don’t show pictures of their children’s caskets coming home. We do wish you success in Iraq, and hope that the WMDs turn up, but we’re not willing to spend our resources in Bush’s Quagmire.

With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80% of the country’s fresh water, more than 90% of the pineapple and lettuce, 92% of the nation’s fresh fruit, 95% of America’s quality wines, 90% of all cheese, 90% of the high tech industry, 95% of the corn and soybeans (thanks Iowa!), most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools plus Stanford, Cal Tech, UCLA, Berkeley and MIT.

With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88% of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92% of all U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100% of the tornadoes, 90% of the hurricanes, 99% of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100% of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia.

We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you.

Additionally, 38% of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62% believe life is sacred unless we’re discussing the war, the death penalty or gun laws, 44% say that evolution is only a theory, 53% that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61% of you crazy b* believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties.

Finally, we’re taking the good pot, too. You can have that dirt weed they grow in Mexico.

Peace out,

Yes, weddings cost money

But so does the rest of married life. It’s a trade-off. Do you want to spends thousands on one day or the rest of our lives.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t have a trust fund. I can’t ask no one in my family to borrow money for a wedding.

So prayerfully, the woman that marry will respect my inclination to not leverage the next 5-6 years of our lives together for one day.

A reasonable accomodation can be made and a nice wedding had by all, just won’t be no white horses, flowers from the far hills of Italy, or things like that.

But we won’t be chain-fencing it, BBQ in the church parking lot.

There has to be a happy medium, that’s what I’m talking about.

Ha…i know some other folks been peeped it out, too. I don’t know why somebody wasn’t posting like crazy on “Cheap Date Idea” topic. hehehe…i crack myself up.

…speaking of…

Dan you remind me of my CPA. He would lock those “dividends” and wouldn’t spend ANYTHING!…(he could teach alot of good savings tips) But was very anal about it, I would clown him all the time b/c he was so dawggone STINGY! Dude ate burritos for brkfst, lunch, and dinner! Well, it was only him in his lil loft apartment, small car, and then this job was his life! He got married about a 1+ year ago, she was pregnant right off like 4-5 months after married, and now they also have twins to add to the oldest that is only 1y/o. When he’s at the office, i really bust in the door laughing b/c his face expression tells whats up. He was a cheap monster. Now he can’t do that as much.

I guess i’m a miser as well…

Church rental and fees, pastor, flowers, etc.; reception hall rental, insurance, tables/chairs, catering, cakes, photography, etc.etc.etc. An extremely budget affair is going to run $4-5K. $10K is arrived at fairly quickly. Any out-of-town guests that need to be put up? The band won’t show up for less than $3500, and for that much they might suck.

I play weddings that easily exceed $100K in cost. ‘Course, they’re rich folks. There’s a lot to be said for a wedding/vacation/honeymoon package on a beach in the Carribean, and send the erstwhile guests some pictures. The pastor will probably be Catholic, but hey. It’s really all about making a covenant before God, not a blowout bash for your friends and family; but, nothing wrong with a public celebration either.

I’m not trying to be a type of father that oks something for my son and not my daughters. They will be treated equally.

As far as hotels, we had a deal with the hotel (Courtyard). They saved a block of rooms for us at a discounted rate for our guest.

The rehearsal dinner was at Rays on the River (which isn’t cheap either).

They had a live band on that Friday night. I haven’t been back since then….I wonder if they still have a live band on Fridays

@ared….this is you

delay satisfaction is the ultimate art of seduction—while waiting, the victim is held in thrall. Coquettes are the grand masters of this game, orchestrating a back-and-forth movement between hope and frustration. They bait with the promise of reward—the hope of physical pleasure, happiness, fame by association, power—all of which, however, proves elusive; yet this only makes their targets pursue them the more. Coquettes seem totally self-sufficient: they do not need you, they seem to say, and their narcissism proves devil¬ ishly attractive. You want to conquer them but they hold the cards. The strategy of the Coquette is never to offer total satisfaction. Imitate the alternating heat and coolness of the Coquette and you will keep the seduced at your heels.

One of the wife’s sorors normally gets free tickets from the Atlanta Spirit, LLC all of the time to give to kids. I usually give them to my little brothers or big Bro/big sis.

She gets tickets to both the Hawks and Thrashers. Hockey is a game that I am starting to like. It is way better in person than on TV.

With this economy, she doesn’t know if they will give away as many tickets. We normally get a stack (close to 50) tickets around the holidays to give to kids.

PoppaG i think my wedding could be done with just your rehearsal dinner at Ray’s. How about my gf wedding at Peidmont followed by reception. the wedding rehearsal dinner was at some TAvern near the park…all that cost them like 5k. They got hook up, after hook up for their wedding. But that ceremony and reception was beautiful! Oh she also had a cake reception BEFORE the formal reception.

Me, a guest (not a bridesmaid-yay) admiring all this. My son was the “handsome” talk ringbearer looking debonair in his tux,all that cute stuff was expensive.

U posted twice now 2 me, are u angling for smthing.I told u im with Queen tonite so whats the issue? Unles u want to play my warm up match, we can do that.Holla at my gmail. There are sme women who just miss a good scratch and romp.I only give them time when i go to the strip or to the club.Thats when i warm up for my queen. I leave her bathed,clean and tacked in bed.Then hit the club. I prefer to survey the girls on the dance floor first.See which ones are lonely,seem to be on their own and kinda look out of water in there.After a period, i descend on my target and then take them to the dance floor.Im ususually quick with my arms.Hold them to me closer,caress them and give them a good squeeze and ofcourse complement them on their looks,legs etc whatever. Girlz luv that kinda of flattery! And a lot get juiced up after i hold them dear like that. After a good soak, i buy them a drink or 2, get their number and promise to call them tmrow or smthing be4 i trash their number as i live to go home.With gin and sprite on me also, my dyck is outa control by the time i get in the car. When i get home,my wife gets the main course!

I may have been the “Big Meaney”, but we were able to pay cash for EVERYTHING & still have money in the bank.

That was my concern. The rainy day fund wasn’t to be touched.

Wedding Reception Story

I had a friend that was a Tennessee grad. Her dad wass Tennessee grad was well. He paid for a live band. The only requirement was that they band had to know “Rocky Top” and play it whenever he did a “thumbs up” sign with his right hand.

We heard that blasted song all night. They were a good band, though. It looked like even they were tired of the song. They “missed” a few signs.

We play the Great Pumpkin (Phil Fulmer) and UT this weekened. Maybe we can send him into retirement for sure. Although I don’t really like Coach Spurrier either. He toasted our azz when he was at Florida

Those LSU fans are crazy. I remember playing there. Mike the Tiger is something else.

Right now, though, I wouldn’t mind being him. He is one spoiled kitty. Word is that PETA is setting their sights on them and getting Mike the Tiger released.
