I lost my right side hubcaps. Ah, hell, the car has 320,000 miles on it. Getting new hubcaps, even boneyard, would blow my $10 monthly maintenance allotment.
Nah...Think positive!!!
You NEVER know ;o)

I excused myself as quickly as possible. (I live quite a ways out of town and always bring my own car) *chuckle* What's worse.....is getting a call the next day and having them tell me what a great time they had. Arrrrgh!
That is probably true, but in my case, the problem is this: I see a beautiful woman who's attracted to me, and I get that "Aw shucks, she can do better" mentality. It's really not insecurity, but honesty. I know that sounds like I'm parsing words, but "a man's got to know his limitations."
But what I always come back to is this: "Why don't you let her make her own decision about it!? Give her a chance to get to know you."
He didn't say anything about quality.
Ahhhh, the Vic! Indestructible (except the interior door panels).
Yep. That car is the best $750 I've spent in the last decade.
You were worried about shopping for a vacuum cleaner?
Well, I guess not, but it's not something that someone usually does on Saturday night (it sure beat sitting at home, though).
Val, WORTH REPEATING:
Way too much credit given to single women here. We are not so itimidating. We have cartloads of insecurities and will compromise important dreams too easily and then distrust our own judgement... or I do anyway.
Thimk of all the mistakes being made by single women that are undermining our country's social and economic structures.. unwed motherhood, living with bums and predators and increasing drug and alcohol abuse.
Don't be afraid.. but, please, be careful.

And the Man needs to muster up the testosterone to approach the girl--and SHE needs to give him some sort of sign that it is OK to do so...extended eye contact and a smile mean "hi, the door is open, come into my space and talk"
True. I'm used to FReeping on Saturday nights. ;-)
Also, truth be told, if we’re completely candid with ourselves, we’ve been spoiled and pampered, accustom to having someone take care of us, make sure that our socks matched, that we didn’t embarrass ourselves at that party. Sex was a given, no need to shower, shave, appear desirable, or even interested. And definitely no need to think about her feelings, wants, desires, or idiosyncrasies on a second by second basis.
So, why on earth getting divorced? He had it all.
Does the cigarette lighter work?
Sure, if I hadn't tossed it out the window...
He neglected her, took her for granted, focused on himself rather than her. He drove her way through selfishness and ignorance. Courtship should be for a lifetime, not a sales pitch that ends after a march down the aisle--that's false advertising, from the standpoint of a girl's emotions and normal nesting drive.
As in flowers, candy and nights on the town should continue throughout the marriage.
(I just haven't found a girl willing to spend that much on me yet! Petronski, you lucky dawg!)
That's where I plug in my XM radio...channel 74: bluesville!
Fix the cigarette lighter.
I need to pick up the soundtrack sometime.
