\*Hugs? \*

**RandRover** , Have you no credit cards?

And the cathouses of Pahrump, Nevada - are they still in operation?

From what you posted at first I was afraid that something might have happened to stop them in their useful course. Since you ask me, that is my answer. Those who are badly off must go there.

Its a personal responsibility thing. The OP needs to grab himself by his bootstrap and make do and not be a leach on the useful members of society.
