eta: ah, now I get it. A "starter marriage" that is fun. I was thinking it was a fun-starter marriage - like one that would get the fun started or something and thinking what the hell is that.

My fun starter marriage wasn't so fun. I'd like to return it for something totally irresponsible please.

Worried sick about you, obviously. Some people can be so cavalier about other people's feelings.

You should be more discriminating in your choice of men.

When I am having any kind of sex, hyphen placement is everything. If he can't get that right, there's no hope.

Speaking of sex, my bf (for now) saw a guy at the train with "Pussy Eater" on his tank top. When I heard that story, I thought of sebby.

. . . but "Neither One Of Us (Wants To Be The First To Say Good-bye)" by Gladys Knight and the Pips is now playing on my mental soundtrack.

Which is better than, say, "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney (or Dolly) --- uh, oops. Now that's playing, too.

I'm sure that the fine folks at Frito-Lay are thrilled to hear that the satan of the desert likes their snack food.

The three GIs were among members of C Company, 2nd Battalion, 103rd Armor Regiment, a Pennsylvania National Guard unit from the Scranton area that was activated for duty in Iraq in late 2003. Instead of going into combat, they were chosen by the FBI to serve as guards at a U.S. military compound where Saddam was an “HVD,” or high value detainee.

The soldiers say Saddam was preoccupied with cleanliness, washing up after shaking hands and using diaper wipes to clean his meal trays, his utensils and the table before eating. “He had germophobia or whatever you call it” said Dawson, 25, of Berwick, Pa.

The article quotes the GIs on Saddam’s eating preferences — Raisin Bran Crunch was his breakfast favorite. “No Froot Loops,” he told O’Shea.

For a time his favorite food was Cheetos, and when those ran out, Saddam would “get grumpy,” the story says. One day the guards substituted Doritos corn chips, and Saddam forgot about Cheetos. “He’d eat a family size bag of Doritos in 10 minutes,” Dawson says.
"That's all he talked about, that's all he wanted to eat after that."

Is this in response to my Y2K celebration? Because if you think coming home to a drunk guy in mid-psychotic episode is better than having to sit home at your house for New Tear's Eve, maybe you should sit your husband down and have an airing of grievances. rp might be able to provide some helpful break-up key words to get the conversation started.

It was shortly after he called my friends' house on New Year's Eve ordering me to come home, left a threatening message on the answering machine of a guy I had gone to lunch with once (whose business card he found in my wallet) and built a shrine of all of our photos together (with candles for extra creepy effect) in the room next to the garage so it was the first thing I saw when I arrived home on New Year's morning. He was drunk and waiting up for me. Happy 2000! Really at that moment he didn't deserve to find someone who loved him as much as he loved me. I was being generous.

Are you sure he was at fault? Maybe the way you dressed led him on?

At first I was afraid
I was petrified
Did not know how I'd live my life Without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
Thinking how you'd done me wrong
That I grew strong
Now I'm strong

Now you're back
From outer space
And I walked in to find you here with that look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had know for just one second you'd be back to bother me
Now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
You think I'd crumble
You think I'd lay down and die
Oh, no not I
I will survive!
For as long as I know how to love I know I'll be alive
I've got all mjy life to live
I've got all my love to give
I'll survive
I will survive
HEY HEY!

Oh No. It was poetry, artfully beautiful. Sometimes I do worry that you put too much time and craft into your work, that's all.

We built orange crates here, not grand pianos. Pearls before swine, that should be your sig line.

Salty Snack foods and porno will do more than enough to spread American values in the mid-east- we just need to be patient. Plus, if we could get our allies involved- Tim Horton's every mile or so in Baghdad, etc- we'll really accelerate the pace of change.
