Hear ye, hear ye!

I guess these former Northeastern freshmen didn't realize that the days of the town crier have past.

A pair of freshmen at Northeastern University learned a tough lesson before classes even started this semester, when one of them allegedly leaned out the window of his dormitory and yelled something regrettable in earshot of plainclothes police officers.
That must be some kind of record, classes only started today.

A real CEO doesn't have a McMansion. He has a mansion mansion.

A radiologist or successful local businessman or lawyer has a McMansion.

I feel sorry for that guy. He played fantastic yet Federer still beat him in straight sets.

for someone who's always trying to get his dick sucked, you sit with an awfully narrow stance in the potty.

I really enjoyed Agassi's commentary on the match.

You and your 0 electoral college votes can also suck my dick, which, BTW, swings 55 electoral college votes in both a narrow and a wide stance.

So I told the rich guy that I would pick someplace to eat Friday. And I did. I emailed him the name of the restaurant and the time and said I would meet him there. Now, if I received that information and I didn't know where the restaurant was located, or the type of food, or whether it was formal or informal, I would type the name of the restaurant into google, or citysearch, or menupages. In other words, I would figure it out. This guy keeps asking me question after question. Where is it? What kind of food? etc.

For God's sakes, you are allegedly an almost-CEO. Of a big corporation. And you can't figure the most basic of things out for yourself?

What almost-CEO does anything him (or her)self? Those details are left to assistants.

So he should have delegated that task to an assistant....Sheesh.

And any good almost-CEO sees the entire world as made of nothing but assistants or rivals.

Boy, you really aren't into idle chit-chat, are you?

I understand the merits of this whole refrain-from-quick-sex-and-establish-the-relationship thing, I suppose, but I think I'm hearing a deep-seated desire to flee to some foreign jurisdiction like Jersey, stomp on the cockaroaches, and have the drop-of-the-hat sex.
