Guess you didn't see how her dad makes his money LOL!

I recently found my senior prom picture, so I know what she looked like – darned if I can remember her name.

[LoveDoc]

Well, I'm a born again believer now, but I sure wasn't in high school

And I can tell you without a doubt, whether it cost $2500 or $25, if I was her date...there'd be only ONE concern I'd have about that dress... ;)

Being a male I never had this great dream of a prom being the greatest thing in my life. I was just looking for a chance to get laid.

That's what EVERY male is thinking when they go to prom. I will admit to renting the tuxedo, but it was an investment that paid off later.

[LoveDoc]

and that's the REAL difference between the chicks and the dudes.

lol!

Congrats on the great prom and marriage.
I went to three proms in total with three different girls and I bet they did not even spend a thousand dollars total between the three of them (in fact I am pretty positive on that) and we still had a great time. The thing with this girl is that her father is probably some producer or someone like that who probably thinks ten thousand dollars is what one hundred dollars is to us. I still don't think it is right, but that could be an explanation. Can you imagine her marriage...one million dollars at least (for three years max before the divorse of course - LOL).

She has all the makings of a Big City Socialite.

Except she comes from Brooklyn.

One of the big reasons why I turned down the three guys who asked me to the prom. I never had any delusions about what prom night means to many guys.

cannot say for sure whether there will be any good bars in Heaven. I doubt it, because I've never found well-attended bars near well-attended churches. So, once I arrive in that great dry county in the sky

That's why I'm going to hell where all my friends will be! ;-) Plus, if heaven is populated with the types of people who are certain they are going to heaven, I don't really want to spend eternity there.

And as Jenna Cossuto and her friends live in thier fantasy world of mass/pop/crap/slave culture inspired by MTV and sanctioned by parents with entirely too much disposable income and far too little maturity and morality...

The terrorists finalize their next wave of attacks, China grows stronger and becomes one step closer to realizing their 1000 year dream of world domination, a million illegal invaders swarm the border, never to leave...

Let her and her friends have their prom! For this will be the highlight of what will prove to be a sad, wasted life cut short by the cruel, cruel, world surrounding them (and getting ever-so-closer).

Ps Newsflash: This is how 80% of the girls are these days. In church/out of church. It almost doesn't matter.

And people here mock men who look for wives overseas.

[Churchillspirit]

Good point.

How much fun could she have in that dress? (Keep it clean now!) She's have to carry the train around all night.

[aShepard]

....."I was just looking for a chance to get laid."......

This girl appears to be very doable!

[Churchillspirit]

Lovely story.

I hope you have lived happily everafter.

"Let her and her friends have their prom! For this will be the highlight of what will prove to be a sad, wasted life cut short by the cruel, cruel, world surrounding them (and getting ever-so-closer)..."

If I remember the Woody Allen Movie correctly, the next line would be:

q. So what are you doing Saturday Night?

a. Committing suicide.

q. How bout Friday Night?

[RHINO369]

I just found a picture from my junior prom, and my ex girlfriend has the worst look on her face! She looks like she has no interest in being there!

[LoveDoc]

"And people here mock men who look for wives overseas."

Do they really?

In here?

I'm honestly surprised.

If you have enough game, you can play past that 80%, but I sure would never mock or discourage you from making a choice like that. So long as you have your eyes wide open..

[Churchillspirit]

Good for business though.......money makes the world go around, the world go around....

Well said my friend . The spoiled little witches in my town can make you puke. Big cars , cell phones , designer clothes and their noses in the air.The parents are even worse. Shallow phonies , usually without a brain in their heads.
