Looks like Van Wilder...
I doubt it.
Not everyone has someone else to pay for it.
You just know that guy can roll a really tight spleef.
He must come from wealth, because who can afford to send one kid to college for 12 years?
"I'd like to hear what the members of his original entering class have to say about him now."
Let's type him into "Classmates.com" or one of those other loser HS reunion sites. ;) (Tee-Hee!)
"If it wasn't for my wife I'd be living in a trailer on the Tennessee River next to the boat dock with beanbags in the living room and a Futon on the floor."
So, ya'll have a double-wide now? LOL! Just kiddin'. :)
My husband lived like a pauper when I first met him, too. And he really didn't have to...most guys just don't care much about asthetics. He had the requisite "curb found" couch, the boards and bricks bookshelves (he did have "smart-guy books" though, so I cut him some slack), lamps without shades, not a single matching dish...
I remember the first meal he cooked for me, though. Fettuccini Alfredo, Steamed Patty Pan squash and some strawberry chocolate dessert. He was a Chef at the time and asked the woman who lived next door what he should do about his apartment before he invited me over for dinner. She said, "Clean sheets on the bed and a toilet clean enough to eat off of, and she should do your bidding." LOL!
It was almost true. I did appreciate that he cleaned the bathroom. ;)
My own husband is encouraging me to follow in the same path and I must admit that I've been giving it some thought. Once the kids are grown, why not?
Why wait? Find something you like and take classes when you can. Working full time makes it harder but with online classes and such, but even for working parents it can be easier to do now than just a few years ago.
Now I just need to follow my own advice and figure out a major to pursue for the next degree.
Oops. Wrong one. Here he is. Maybe.

Why am I not surprised? Oh, goody. Now we can all go rush to find out whether he wears boxers or briefs. < mega eye-rolling down here in Texas >
I know this 59-year-old hippie. He's divorced and he doesn't know how to cook or clean.
He has the spool and the dead plants.
Numerous veins of cobwebing high along the walls.
Refridgerator well stocked with beer, but scene marred by massive black trash bags leaking nearby.
And the ashtrays! I haven't seen so many cigarette butts jammed into plate sized ashtrays since I was in the Navy.
He's a good fellow though. He has a good heart. But the old lady and the ponytail are gone now and he doesn't have a clue as to what he's going to do. Says now that he wished he joined the military.
I silently agreed.
Thank You.
