Sarah, a stark beauty, hotter than you might believe, has always left a dry taste in my mouth due to her hostility toward men. Once fertile, now barren, she drifts aimlessly in the wind, never looking quite the same the next time you see her.
You, MonkeyBoyo, are a poet. But maybe I'm biased (see sig).
OT: Before I found your interstates list a few years ago, I had thought I was the only roadgeek. Good work, and thanks for introducing me to that crowd. I now post as "Ubermonkey" on MTR sometimes.
Just outside of Boston (508) we have ten-digit dialing but eleven if it's toll. When someone gives me their 508 number, I don't know whether I should add a 1 or not. You can tell based on location, but what is the "location" of a cell phone? Guess incorrectly, and I get that horrid loud triple-tone and have to try the other. It pisses me off.

Lying. In both of these cases you can vote for Alice and tell the husband/union you picked Bob. The original poster makes the point that anyone can observe your vote with Internet voting.

Have you been hanging out at zoo.pl?
Sorry, I think there's prior art.
As for me, I'm now in a baby-bell free zone, and love it.
Whoa. How did you manage that?
No, you're missing my point. I mean that all we can see is this document "obtained by the Center". Can we be sure that it's accurate?
If they're a reputable group, I'll believe them. But that's what I'm asking - are they? It's important to check your sources.
The only evidence we have is something published by the Center for Public Integrity. Are they reputable? Do they have an agenda?
I'm not familiar with this organization. Could someone reply who is?
But does it work?
On his homepage, the appropriate link is Bierbrauen.

You are aware that AOL, Netscape, and Mozilla are the same people, right?

Most. Tenuous. Connection. Evar.

Your misspelling is highly appropriate

Isn't that like a bar that plays both types of music: country and western?

Sorry, have to go finish these TPS reports.
Yes, that's a good point.

Look here, boy, you're doing it all wrong. I say it's the back seat you should be interested in, not the dash.
