My co-workers are spending holiday of Succoth with mishpocho. Sorry to say, my own isn’t that observant.

I hadn’t even heard of Jeff Skinner. I’m having trouble trying to remember our new guys at training camp! But TS is a hockey fan and has been going to games for years. She’s a good kid and has inspired lots of little girls to play the guitar.

I wasnt suggesting 80, just one barrell, like 10-11. Cash to me in that eposode looked like half a mil,mand the fee was 125k. Saul says, you might want to think about a budget,,,

The Democrat mishpocha is festering sore of corruption begging for the lance.

I do think it's a bit like Stooges, as in guys instantly gravitate to it whereas most women tolerate it and find it occasionally amusing

I think you are on to something.

Guys can relate to Walt, wether they admit it or not. Women can't admit to being Skylers or Maries....

Well, I would say, thats because most women are not ungrateful deceitful witches, with bizarre control issues.

All the women I know, are nice.

Like our classmates : )

Thank you - my daughter and son in law were over the other day and my husband and I were jokingly bickering about something and I walked over and kissed my husband on the cheek, ending the situation with a laugh. My son in law looked at my daughter and said, "they bicker and he gets a kiss - we bicker and you don't talk to me all night!" lol

I've got some work to do on that girl.....
