Man, fish... I hope you know what you're doing with this one. The whole south sound is gonna be scorched earth for you if this ends as poorly as it began. But enjoy the crazy sex while it's still more sex than crazy.

It's more than crazy and even more than nuts - it's knuckles.

yeah, I know. strangely enough, I think I have this covered. most of my time is spent with the twenty-somethings, who know everyone around here. as long as I'm good with them, I won't cause any damage in my backyard and I'll have plenty of options. they know what I'm doing, and they're all in favor of me chasing the crazy sechs, as long as it isn't serious.this one doesn't really know anyone here and is moving across the bridge next week--as far as the Harbor is concerned, Tacoma may as well be a different country. just need to keep the worlds separate, which shouldn't be a problem after the initial meltdown.anyway, I think the entertainment value may have run its course for now. I'll let you know when things go sideways.

Uncle Costry explaining to people why there's an old hippie you don't know staying at your house.I've used "we met at church" for dates I met online. People generally get the idea...being that I only go to church when someone dies. Not sure when it's a man/man.PS what is the go-to cover story when cornholing? I don't think I want to tell one of my clients that this is my funny friend from the internet.

I'm actually not a fan. I mean, I love looking at naked chicks (and I, unlike you, would be very happy to look at V&A all night), but in a strict cost-benefit analysis I just don't find it a good use of funds.In an effort to get this thread somewhere else, any married guys want to explain to me what the big deal is about strip clubs?

I have never owned an apple product in my life, never a mac, ipod, ipad, etc...
Yesterday I received an iphone 4s (have had a blackberry product for the past 5 or so years)
iphone is about infinity times better than blackberry.
just in case you were interested in such things.

<-- wants to go to a strip club with shuke. This guy gets it. Naked hot (or semi-hot) women dancing provocatively are better than the Yankees vs. Red Sox on the bar TV. It's entertainment of the finest type. You get drunk, you have a wild time, you joke, you laugh, you oogle naked women who at worst don't mind being oogled and at best like it. And maybe you go into a backroom for the evening's wild card.

On a serious note: yesterday I noticed that the local Occupy/99% protest was short on food. They were asking people to "pizza bomb" them by ordering pizzas sent to the park. This seemed like a terrible misuse of resources to me. Pizza is perishable and you can get far more nutrition from equal $$ spent. So I went to the grocery store and charged $40 worth of granola bars (240 bars - a lot of food). Then I picked up my son from preschool and we drove down to the protest and handed them out.
Part of me wanted to support the cause, another part wanted to teach my son how to be compassionate by helping others with their most basic needs. I did not explain what we were doing in a political context. I told him these people asked for food. I know they aren't homeless or starving, but they did need food, food would keep them there voicing their opinion (which I do share), and I hoped that a stranger's generosity would lift their spirits (it did). So I was willing to tack on $40 to my credit card to help.
I realize that my iffy finances for the next three months (documented :e:lsewhere) makes this a pretty stupid thing to do. I only hope it was more compassionate than stupid, and in the end teaching DP Jr. a valuable life lesson at the green age of 4 was worth it.

There's this thing called the internet where I can see naked chicks for free. What I don't get is why married women have such a problem with whores. That's where the real value is.

Obviously, she thinks that would be weird - and so do I, but that's when it turns nasty.Because I just won't pick up and move out, she pouts, claims I've "won" and guilt trips several times, and that she's going to have to go live in the ghetto someplace. I would accept (begrudgingly) us living in the same complex over me having to find a different place to live.In the end, I think it's sad that's what's making her so nasty. Then, she makes a money grab - trying to get the money for the engagement ring, then money to move out, then stuff of mine she can sell. Then calls me selfish for saying nh, well. Gave her until Sunday to move out, she agreed, and I'm going to a hotel. Life is...interesting.

For the first question, it wouldn't. The fight is basically who stays. I can afford it. She can't. She can afford a smaller place in the same building.She made another money grab this morning. It was pretty brutal. Obviously I said no, so the name calling/etc. started again. Sad, really, because she's not like this.

Yep. We're both handling it badly - I'm not really giving an inch as far as me moving. I just don't see the point. She'll have to move anyway - even if it is just to a new place in the building. I don't see that as a reason I should move out of the place we already have, especially since all the big furniture/tv/tables/etc. are mine.I think they both like the complex and want to stay there, but don't want to be that close to each other.Why would one of you staying be weird?Why would you both have to live in the same complex post-breakup?

So #1 son (4yo) goes to a new ultra progressive school here in NYC that currently goes to the 3rd grade. Every morning, the entire school has a community meeting to start the day... usually a song or story led by one class or another. Parents of all ages are invited to stay, and many do- my wife was there this morning.
So today was "tell a joke" day, which I inderstand illicits the same handful of kids to jump up and down with hands raised when asked if anybody wants to share a joke in front of the group. Floppo Jr is NOT one of those kids- he hates crowds and chaos (and I hope those moron "look at me" hand-raisers too) and is generally pretty shy and reserved in a group. And even though he loves performing, he's usually only comfortable doing it in front of a few people.
So he's sitting there with my wife this morning, and the usual smart-### (with the Tanner-esgue annoying name) jumps up in front of him waving her hands wildly... but today, my kid stands up calmly and raises his hand too. My wife gives
looking around trying to figure out where her real son went, while his teachers are waving wildly at the head of school to pick him, which he does. Jr gets up front and the school head, realizing its a big moment for Jr gets a freaking microphone for him. I'm assuming Jr will bail at this point, but no- waits patiently while they set up the soundsystem, leans in and says "hi" when they get it running but opts not to hold it himself; so the school head holds it in front of him while he tells his joke:
- How many grandmothers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? (I had recently told him the jewish version, where the answer is "s'alright, I'll just stand here in the dark")
(Entire school back to him)- I don't know, how many grandmothers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
- 18
riotous applause and my kid exits back to his mom giving running hifives to the crowd.
I literally cried from pride when my wife told me.
