B, p. Everyone already knows your coffee table is aggressively hetero. Query, however, why your wife would sign up for Maxim, Playboy and FHM, even if just for a trial subscription.

Well that's good to know. Does that ankle bracelet ever give you a rash?

Happily, no. But it is excellent that you realize that an ankle bracelet is the ideal suicide-watch mechanism. Because I would definitely leave the house/jurisdiction to off myself.

This reminds me, there was an interesting little column in the NYT Mag this week about the fact that people are more honest and reveal more about themselves online than in person.

Kind of makes you wonder what Sebby's friends would reveal if only they were here to speak about their experiences firsthand.

Not me. I'm much more demure here than I am IRL.

I have no idea what implications this has on my Dutch friend, his new Nut Job fiance, and me and my misplaced ankle bracelet.

I hope you appreciate the restraint it took to not go with the softball subject line.

Your sort of recent post made me remember that I needed to get some new lipstick for spring and I also don't like when lipstick comes off so soon. At Sephora, I discovered a variety of "lip stains" that do pretty much what it sounds like they do. http://www.sephora.com/browse/sectio...tegoryId=C8360

I got the Vincent Longo Lip & Cheek Gel Stain in "Baby Boo," a lovely dark rose. To have that fashionable spring pink, I got Nars lip gloss in "Frisky Summer" to go over it. Nars has a lip stain gloss but that was more opaque and dark than I wanted.

Sephora is the garden of temptations for me. I can never get out of there for less than $100.

I don't think your ankle bracelet had GPS.

Simple. She got sick of me spending newstand price money on the crap. She usually reads bits and pieces of them as well. I skim her Cosmo, Vogue and Elle shit... not all of it, but the nude/semi-nude model shots.

From Travel & Leisure Mag:

TOP CITIES FOR CLEANLINESS
1) Minneapolis/St. Paul
2) Honolulu
3) Portland
LEAST: New Orleans
TOP CITIES FOR PEACE + QUIET
1) Santa Fe
2) Portland
3) Minneapolis/St. Paul

The Chambers of Commerce will be so proud. I'm waiting for the new slogans: "Come to the Twin Cities: We're Boring but Neat" or "Visit Mpls/St. Paul: Have a nice nap and don't litter."

I too read the NYT article. This is precisely the reason why they believed we were more "honest" online than we might be IRL. Board archivists have a way of holding us to what we write.

They should have just said one word -- Atticus.

Yeah, but when you are dealing with some people who apparenlty maybe overdid it a bit with the drug use in their youths, it's pointless because it all goes over their heads anyway.

Better than SF...come have a street person scream at you and then pee on your feet.

Houston is worst in four categories.

I'll give on the other three categories, but worst place to visit in Spring? Are they fucking nuts? It's gorgeous here in spring. Maybe they're just being idiots and classifying "spring" as april through june insead of late-feb-late-may.

hmph.

Um, since we are working from the thingy Coltrane posted, SF would be "come for your honeymoon -- you can reach our fine stores filled with pretty stylish people using riding our fine public transportation system."

Random question. Why is it that the smaller the suit the higher the price?
$102

Dude. That "I read Cosmo for the porno" shit is so high school. I don't buy it. Reading Cosmo, Vogue and Elle for the nude/semi nude model shots WHEN THERE ARE COPIES OF PLAYBOY, MAXIM AND FHM ON THE SAME COFFEE TABLE is recockulous. You're the guy who doesn't drink beer b/c it's weak sauce.

I haven't rubbed one out to Vogue since I was in elementary school, and you're telling me you do it at 26-32?
