I keep thinking of the title of this thread as “Welcome to Me, population: 1”.

Hello you guys. Play nice. And no fucking outside the pit.

I am male. I don’t do massages… but for U$S 14 I’ll learn really fast.

Binarydome, fuck you for your not so subtle indication that this is a scam. For your information a resarch has been done by a prestigious university “The scientologist creation college of El Paso” that demostrates, without a doubt, that you can loose weight simply by using the SDMB.-

Dude…That seems to be the sort of thing that not only would be weird if you did it, but would be doubly weird if you kept notes.

As for being able to say “fuck:” I wish I knew that before, my posts would be a lot more entertaining. At least more obviously ignorant.

You’re a little late for the cheapo introductory rate of $4.somethin’.  
Oh…And I want to buy a vowel. I’ll take an “e”.

I’m going to try to solve it: Pete.

How’d I do?

Maybe it’s because I’ve moved a lot, but I guess my burly men haven’t been able to find me yet, 2000 posts later than they found you.  
But when they finally get here, I hope they’re balding!

They were an assortment of balding, shaved head and buzz cut. MMMMMM… a burly man sampler. 😃

Welcome **Sharky**! I’m about three hours northeast of you in south GA.

Actually, the rule is “twice **Winston Smith** ’s current post count”. So as of today, it takes 1088 posts to get the masseuse.

[sub]And the rest of us would appreciate it if you’d only post when absolutely necessary…[/sub]

It’s me?!? Damn. The Red Sox curse is my fault, too.

There, I’ll just save time. It would have been PT, but the powers that be require at least a 4 letter name. Now, I would really rather not discuss what PT stands for. A few here already know…
