Ron Paul is good! Anywho, we run into each other at the office, and he actually apologized and gave me my $5 back. But hes still a jerk and we don’t associate with him anymore. This is one of those men that will always be alone.  
I need to not trust my attractions anymore and only date guys whom I am not interested in a first; those will be the nice ones.

Ahh yes, this thread. I don’t actually have one, but I imagine this is what ‘sticking it in the crazy’ would feel like.

Snuggling up to a guy who brought you breakfast from his house is not “making the first move.”

no way, this thread is hysterical. it’s also fascinating seeing firsthand the private lives of potential elected officials. i’ll be waiting for the “ask the…” thread. 🙂

I’ve long had a theory that everyone in politics is nuts. This thread hasn’t made that theory go away.

This thread is like some kind of zombie gerbil burial ground. It keeps coming back to life a little at a time.

Not personally, but I used to work in the kids section of the library and among other livestock there were gerbils who went _squeakie_squeakie\* all the livelong day. I much preferred the bunny and the canary.
