_hugs_ dave… this economy does suck! Every quarter we hold our breath that hubby’s company doesn’t lay off everyone and fold. Great product just the economy doesn’t see a lot of businesses totally replacing their phone systems right now _sigh_

Then I get really worried that we were totally retarded to go and have another kid! But things will work themselves out… I have hope 🙂

Anyway here’s to you getting an awesome job that you don’t hate! Maybe one with Casual Fridays so you can wear the PPH to work?

It’s from this…you guys check this out and see what you think.[http://www.intellectualwhores.com/masterladder.html](http://www.intellectualwhores.com/masterladder.html)

6 and I were debating the validity of the theory. I think that it is obviously written from a guys perspective and I see HUGE holes in it but I do see some basis for truth in some of it.

**mipiace** OH NO because you were asking for a biker, and now I’m not one. What kind of bike do you prefer? Do you ride yourself? … Hummmm that doesn’t sound like I meant it to… Do you ride motorcycles yourself? 🙂

You know I glanced at the ladder thing. I think I’m with **Maureen** on this one…

I don’t have a bike right now but I do have a license. I used to have a bike before I went over seas. Nothing special just a Honday Nighthawk.

I like Ducatis, BMWs … saw a lot of those when I was over seas. I have a friend who has a Ducati and he would take me out on Sundays through the mountains in Italy and Austria, I enjoyed that lot. they are pretty cool bikes.

**mipiace** I just sold a '81 Yamaha XV920RH. Sort of a european touring look bike. Had a lot of neat features, 920 CC V twin, and very low miles. I bought the bike from a friend who’s wife was making him get rid of it. It never fit me very well though. Thus the low miles.  
I’m envious of your riding exeriences. This

sounds like something straight out of a Danniel Steel novel. It’s only missing the picnic in the alpine meadow. Oh, and the bodice ripping 🙂

they don’t, it is, and welcome to the party. Which is a bit morose, at the moment, but it’ll lighten up presently.

and putting that in a quote was morose code 🙂  
Sorry couldn’t resist  
So **Davebear** I know it’s early for this, but any thoughts on what you might do? Did they at least give you decent severance?

**Wyatt** I can play the radio… And I usta could play the trombone. I like the idea of groupies (specially if **mipiace** is going to be one), but I’m not sure I own enough makeup to have real stage presence… Maybe I could be the first manager. You know the one that gets fired as soon as chocolate nipple clamps hits the big time. Then goes on to badmouth them on behind the music 🙂

See, the beauty of the chocolate nipple clamps is that your body heat causes them to slowly melt, slowly lessening the tension until your nipples are merely coated with a ungent of chocolatey goodness.

What your partner chooses to do with that mess…

Hmmm lets take a trip down memory lane and ponder if Dave will open the bar we discussed about 40 pages ago?!

I don’t have any chocolate nipple clamps but I do have some chocolate body paint. We could paint frogs 🙂

I also have glow in the dark body paint… works fairly well as long as you let it dry well enough. Wouldn’t want your messages smudged before your partner got his or her instructions 🙂

Oh and the only instrument I know how to play is the ski… oh you meant ‘musical instrument’ sorry carry on!

I can be punny too… I just don’t have any to go with morose code ☹
