I should, but since I frequently don't I do make an effort to read my posts and immediately correct the many mistakes.* Thank you again for your support.

Plus what? This reference makes no sense. Your thought seems not fully articulated.

Typo? Or just another instance of your decline as a serious poster?

For you, anything. FWIW, Mrs. NB thinks he's (in her words) "a hottie."

Then again, she married me, so what does she know?

edited to note that ncs is obviously not my wife, which is a relief, what with the whole boyfriend and living in another state thing.

Riiiiiiiiiight. And that anatomically correct blow-up Godzilla doll just magically showed up in your office...

For millions and millions of dollars he could have me. NTTAWWT. But of course, I am that shallow.

He may not be your type. I hear Cashman chased him out of the Bronx by wearing a kilt, commando.

And, FWIW, Mrs. Ramone thinks he looks gayer than cheese. NTTAWWT. And NTTSAANB.*

Hmm. I had the feeling that you might be more attracted to someone like this:

Just based on your avatar. And the fact that she's wearing a skirt.

Depends, no pun intended. Once the dollar figure goes over $5MM, all other subjective criteria go out the window.

Think about it, that's over 27 years worth of $500 dinners. With money left over for a $15K watch!!!

He's just my love-ah so by definition he's not a keeper, so the best I can hope for in terms of big $$ is jewelry, and since accepting expensive jewelry would make me feel like a whore, I won't be having any of that, either.

What I find disturbing is that Roger Clemens, according to a new report on ESPN.com, said, in a radio interview, "maybe" to the question of pitching for the Astros.

The Yankees didn't offer him arbitration because he swore up and down he wasn't coming back.

You can't wear this either. I saw it on a florist website while looking for a Christmasy flower/plant thing to send to my Mom. For some reason I can't see the shoe being added to the garlands on the fireplace mantle, or in the dining room bay window, or on the table in the hall, or any of the gazillion other places my parents decorate for the holidays.

Anyone else go crazy like this? I go home for Christmas and there are garlands, wreaths, lights, angles, candles, and ribbon everywhere! They decorate inside and outside. The outside stuff isn't so over the top. Some wreaths and white lights near the front door. Inside is a different story. Thank goodness there are no Christmas collectibles to add to the mix.

Does anyone actually collect those gaping carolers, or weird looking snow babies?
