    I hit the cap (16 or 17) on the Ticketmaster thing, but no concerts I want to go to that are local and available.

    $239 worth of Amazon credit. I guess that means I spend too much on books. :D

  2. I got 3 free tickets and 3 discounts. I have no idea what I'd use them for. I haven't been to a big concert in a lonnnng time. Mostly just small, local shows.

    As Chris Rock says...There is NO sex in the Champagne Room ;)

    That being said...just because you happen upon a hot nymphette with her lovely butt cheeks hanging out from her obviously cut too short daisy dukes :D
    ...is NO reason to miss your train home with the few minutes you have left.
    (yes, there would be another in 30 but its not the express)

    *sigh*

    I must be getting wiser...or old...or less of a perv, uh guy. :rolleyes:

    Kind of like how you realize that the hot teenager in the see through tie-die gown is not rubbing up against you at the concert because she is impressed with your wide belly and tiny penis.
    It's because she wants you to move off the front so her friends can get in.

    More like you kind of make choices in life...

    At one time in my life I would have missed the train to stare a bit more (which she wants people to do if she's wearing them that short)
    And the highly off-chance fantasy that she MIGHT be interested in you if you somehow made the right play. (hey, we can dream...can't we?)

    But no, these days you'd rather get home, walk the dog, make some dinner and kick back...and after a long day you'd rather do this as fast as possible.
    Plus, now I know I'm not a player...plus I'm an older man (not ugly or unfit) ...still highly unlikely I'm going to pull a "rockstar" scenario. (especially in Federal Govt fashionwear)

    It's like a poker game...you figure out the odds for the cards you have ;)
    The buttcheeks while lovely have the same draw and worth of the Champagne Room (the tease is not worth the cost...and tease is all you'll get. :D )

    Besides...there are always more buttcheeks...especially in the city in summer. :p

    Just goes to show that class actions suits are really just another attorney enrichment device. Class members get something worth somewhere between little and nothing and the law firms rake in millions of dollars in their share of the settlements.

    Plaintiffs can take some small comfort in seeing the sued party publicly spanked, but that's about it.

    Ticketmaster settlement: up to $16.5 million for lawyers, $1.50 coupon for consumers

    I've started watching The Next Generation, chronologically and (eventually) in its entirety, for the first time today. Eight episodes in, and I'm quite enjoying myself.

    I mentioned a little while ago that one of my customers was referring me over to a bank to look into becoming a mortgage loan officer. I now have an interview next Tuesday.

    This is good because we had chrysler Pacifica training yesterday and today, with 3-4 salesmen heading to a half day training at a time. Because of that, the gm declared that Wednesday and Thursday would be bell to bell 0830-2100. My team has our regular bell to bell on friday. So I will be on the property for about 38 hours in three days. Fucking ridiculous.

    I'm fuckin' tired.
    But I did it.

    success - quiet & smooth ride

    Now that I kept it up...they want me to bring it down hard. (up for the deadline...crash & burn to prove cloud vendor is screwing us on resources & capacity)

    But now now, I'm sleeping the sleep of the dead.
    CEO, CFO and CIO from my company is coming for a congrats visit tomorrow...want to be alive & kickin' (and articulate) for that.

    I did a lot of work on asbestos/mesothelioma class action suits (there are detailed posts in a thread here). Many people call plaintiff's attorneys 'ambulance chasers,' but I can tell you defense attorneys working for insurance companies know how to ride the gravy train.

    In the first season of ST-TNG it's fun to watch the actors try to establish their characters. Marina Sirtis was pretty bad as Deanna Troi.

    Reading YT comments, I'm constantly amazed by people's lack of a sense of humor.

    Though you can add me to the list of people who think you deserve them, no, I can't steal credit for it.

    Yes...and I still look at buttcheeks with desire.
    And she still enjoys the men lusting after her and tells me so. :)

    Taking my grandkids to their first blues festival. We'll see how this goes. Not sure if I'm good grandpa, bad grandpa, or insane grandpa.

    Never seen Trampled under Foot or Albert Castiglia, looking forward to both.
