What's mildly irritating you today? - Page 87

You had lunch at Burger King?

Cicero · 02-13-2009, 02:06 PM

Shawnee-

I'd keep an eye out for him Shaw but I wouldn't be too nervous. Like you said, he didn't love you, and you didn't love him. If I were you, I'd stop talking to him entirely for awhile. When the cell rings, don't answer it.

Your marriage has nothing to do with it. He's just trying to hit you with anything he can, don't let it effect you.

Once again, I am proud of you!!

Shawnee123 · 02-13-2009, 02:09 PM

Thanks hon...

It freaking hurts.

I wish...never mind.

Cicero · 02-13-2009, 02:24 PM

What is it Shawnee?

My pm box works if you need it. Oh and I also just got msn messenger.

Shawnee123 · 02-13-2009, 02:32 PM

Check your pm...lol.

Well that depends. Do we have the infrastructure to be independent for some time? Is our military strong enough to take on some very pissed off countries who currently hold our debt?

There really is no answer because while possible, it hasn't been considered probable so it is only theory at this point. It could range from a measured gradual move to a new currency with an established conversion rate such as they had while transitioning to the Euro. Of course, the other end of the spectrum is that we have a ridiculous deflation/inflation swing and they just start printing new money tied to the gold standard. Take your pick.

As long as Mr. Clod starts getting little bags of gold dust instead of direct deposit, I guess that's okay.

Good on you for keeping your cool. You're a much stronger woman than me--I'd be in jail right now if a fucker like that tried to threaten my life.

I haven't decided yet.

Pete lost an Uncle this week. We're headed for New Hampshire for the funeral etc.. He had open heart surgery and appeared to have come through, but had massive bleeding two days later. He was the proto-typical Main Street Republican, Navy man, short run with IBM, built a small business, raised a couple good kids, and was active in his church. He loved to argue politics, was open-minded, had a libertarian streak, and was at heart a solid conservative. He was a damn fine man who was liberal with his scotch. He and his kind will be sadly missed.

Shawnee123 · 02-14-2009, 10:40 AM

I'm sorry to hear that Griff.

Juniper · 02-14-2009, 11:52 AM

I have WAY too much to do. Two exams to study for, a take-home quiz, a paper due next week, and two client projects, plus a filthy house and several loads of laundry and my son's wrestling meet tomorrow and fifteen banners to sew for the cub scouts. And, dammit, it's valentine's day so my hub probably expects a little sump'n too. (sigh)

So why am I here?

Shawnee, WTG. You go girl!

Sundae, have some yogurt along with that fruit and your belly will feel better.

Shawnee123 · 02-14-2009, 11:57 AM

You're addicted, like the rest of us!

Hey, so now guys can use VDay as leverage in gettin' a little sumpn sumpn? Hmmph. I thought they were supposed to kiss our butts on this very special Hallmark holiday.

I'm feeling sick.

I had a phone like that once. It was a bakelite one from the 40s or 50s. It weighed about 8 pounds, you could drive nails with the handset.

(BTW, I'm really pysched for you on this one Shawnee!)
