[Did you just call me Coltrane?]

This sounds like a gold mine: a LASIK/Strip Club combo. You could hire ugly girls since the recovering patients can't see so well right away. Once you start noticing their unattractiveness, you are deemed healthy and are sent home.

I get a kick that someone who lives in Minnesota feels as superior about anything as you.

Yeah, it baffles me that someone who lives in Minnesota is constantly lording his supposed superiority over everyone else. Christ, Bilmore! Who from Minnesota does that? Who, Bilmore?

You need to go to West Virginia to get strippers to pay attention to you?

I think it is evident from ABBA's post that we are lounging on the same couch.

Don't concede so early in the game.

Incorrect. You see he opened the post with a "Christ, Bilmore." Although I was tempted to misinterpret this as the deification of Bilmore, when combined with the "Who, Bilmore?" I saw that these were both effective rhetorical devices for conveying his almost-unbelieving exasperation. I could almost hear his hand slap his forehead. When MR wants to give an answer, he provides clear signals that this is what he is doing, as he did later in the post ("Answer: there is none.").

Finally, you are starting to appreciate my genius. Thank you for setting ABBA straight.

Ya know, you get up, bang your head on the ceiling, and you're cranky all the rest of the day.

I wear contacts, but have considered Lasik for a while. A friend had it recently and it went fine, but I think I'm going to wait a while until the procedure becomes more common. Most common problem I understand with it requires only that they do it again. Don't remember ever hearing of someone going blind from it.

That said, I went for an eye exam yesterday and my eyes keep getting worse and worse... Seems like I'm not too far from Coke-bottle contacts or from the optometrist prescribing me a German Shepherd.

For the past few eye appointments my eyes have been pretty stable. I'm going in for Lasik in about three weeks. My eyes are 20/400 (I can barely make out the big "E" on the eye chart while squinting) and I have astigmatism in both eyes. Apparently this makes me a good candidate for the "wavefront" technology. Cost is around $2300/eye. I'll let you know how it comes out.

Even when I had two rooms (kitchen in living room, rah rah, LOVED that) and two people staying with me, I could retreat to the bedroom. I'm kinda worried that MR and his wife are living in a single room. It is uncool for the guests to monopolize both the pull-out couches.

MR, you maybe should go back to something hourly if y'all can't afford more than a single room in low COL land.

I know you're just being silly, but in our defense, the second "family" room is as yet unfurnished (unless you consider unpacked boxes of books as furnished), since we are in the process of remodelling the office in our basement - where the family room is - and have decided to put off getting furniture for down there until the project is finished.

And while we have a nice-sized bedroom (20x15, baby!), we don't have any seating in there, yet, other than the bed and a small bench. I guess we could've just started going at it, but I guess we thought entertaining our guests was a little more important than shagging at that time.

And, despite the requests for more stories about the rude fats, I don't want to shoot my entire load in one day. I will save them for whenever this topic (inevitably) comes up again.

Well, if she's naked in MR's house, that's probably a good idea.

MR, you said the Whales had a kid, right? Is it fat too? Was it bogarting the tv and eating your Apple Jacks out of the box with its grubby little paws?

The child is not fat, suprisingly cute, and very well-mannered for a 2 year old. Go figure.

Look, thurgreed, all I'm saying is that if there's a naked me and a naked ABBA in the same room, it would be absurd that we would be on separate couches. Think about it.
