Most everyone is fat, and the town drunk shows up and makes a spectacle at meetings.

Too many variables to say definitively what's appropriate. In general, I think it's the color, styling and face of the woman more than exact age. However, I completely reject the notion that long hair is somehow more youthful or feminine. It often is not.

5 ft 7

Just mix it in hot coffee. That takes care of everything.

sexy as hell and practical. My perfect man.

So funny I am going to a baby shower tomorrow too and did the same thing today! Sign children's books instead of giving a card. Take photos at the shower and give her the best one framed afterward. Give cash. No one will ask for it, but that's what we all need.

Fun Fun! You are welcome!

Let's try that again.... http://www.lmtpoet.blogspot.com/2013/10/hominy-hominy-i-think-you-dropped-bomb.html

Vegetarianism has been around for thousands of years, in many cultures, successfully. Veganism is a newer sort of OCD way to feel like you have control over something. Extremely restrictive diets are one end of the spectrum - overeating junk is the other end. This is only my opinion, of course. The vegetarians and vegans I…

Yes. I like Chiobani brand, and add whole almonds. All together it's like 200 or so calories for all that!

I can't know for sure unless I was faced with it, but I believe I would not say anything in either case. Nor, would I want to be confronted by a friend about what he/she saw regarding my partner. No one knows what is between two people. I think it presumptuous and nosey to carry tales. If I witnessed something continuously…

There is a whole lot of prejudice on both sides. If you are dubbed "wealthy", you must be a greedy SOB, who wants to crush souls. If you are struggling, you must be a lazy bones. I am for a flat tax rate, period. "X" percent of your income goes to government. What that percent is would have to be worked out and debated.…

OP...you might be a toolbag if...

Would you rather have to swim behind a rowboat for 30 minutes, or spend 30 minutes walking up and down stairs as fast as possible?

Freeze!! People who survive hypothermia say it is actually pleasant - just not the thawing out part if you are saved.

I'd go with the latter. It would be monotonous and somehow gross to eat potato chip flavored salads. Would you rather be at your job one hour less per day, and have to spend that time exercising - or spend one hour MORE per day at your job, and have the calories magically burned? -

Not even a little bit of judgment. Good on you if you are making tips. Also, even dirty old men don't pay big for crappy service, so they have to be good at their jobs as well to make money. In Chicago, we have Hooters and also The Tilted Kilt. My only objection is that a fair number of the girls at TTK have beer guts, and…

Interesting question and responses! Since life doesn't unfold in a series of pictures and polarized responses, I call BS on people who say they are the same in RL. However, I think you can get a strong, and very accurate perception of people online. In some ways, even more real than what you may see at, say, the office.…

Some creep in a bar back in the day said "i'd eat a mile of your sh#t just to see where it came from". I almost barfed on the spot.

This is a fun question. Mine is what I call myself on my blog. It's a marriage between Swashbuckler and Blogger.

I'd have to go with...can't shop at Lane Bryant.

Well, heck. Who doesn't want more friends??

You are NOT a terrible gift buyer! The fact that you are giving it this much thought proves that.

Sinatra CD or original movie poster from ebay. If Sinatra is too pricey, try Dean or Sammy.

I was never a heavy smoker, so we picked a day and stopped cold turkey. My husband had a much harder time. He took to eating ice cream sundaes whenever the cravings got too bad ( mind you he was a 2+ pack a day smoker). Forty pounds later, he was free of cigarettes, took up running, and is now a workaholic marathoner.…

I am often a beaoutch in the forums. But as I read this, I remember about a year ago that someone was openly talking about money struggles here. I privately messaged her for her address, which she sent. I mailed some cash - can't even remember what city or even state it was. So, who knows what people are really like? And…

If the size is an odd number, I know it is meant for juniors/teens. Whatever your size is, if you are over 16, it should be an even number. That's all I know for certain.

A heart, or two and $300 bucks out of a slot machine in Vegas....first try!

VERY well stated.
