  1. There's often a sunken quality to the face on the drug users.
  2. Never went to a woman for a massage.
  3. I would suggest that the admins of the board, as the people Daddy put his trust in, should probably be the final decisionmakers, unless they for whatever reason don't want the task. Not saying others shouldn't feel free to suggest stuff, but too many cooks and all that.
  4. It's true that some corporate pension formulas do some sort of offset for SS (e.g. 1.25% of final average monthly salary times number of years of service minus 0.5% of monthly SS benefit times number of years of service) but that's a reduction in the pension benefit, not a reduction in the SS benefit.
  5. There are certain states where public employees with a pension don't pay into or receive Social Security(unless they accrue benefits from another job) but it's much less common today than it was 40 years ago. Also certain railroad workers have a similar arrangement.
  6. Unite If they invested properly it wasn't really a problem. Most companies canceled pensions not because they were so incredibly expensive, but because there was a pile of money sitting there they could grab when they terminated the plan. Because benefits are frozen at the time the plan is terminated, and won't need to pay out until the workers retire,which means there was surplus to grab. (Benefits are based on your final X years of salary in the plan. So when they are setting aside for you, they project out to your retirement age and work toward a number that is heavily backloaded. So by ending the plan 20 years before you retire, not only is the number of years lower, the base salary that gets multiplied is lower, so there's excess they can skim. It massively screws over the employees, because they generally aren't making enough to set aside enough to cover the difference in benefits.You'r halfway through your career and half your time to save is gone, but your accrued benefit is FAR less than half of what it would be had the plan not terminated.)
  7. Some of us are old enough to remember how hilariously bad some if the earlier corporate filters were. Blocking the NY Times because it had an article on breast cancer, because only porn would have the word "breast," of course...
  8. When I got to an age/aize where normal plane seats were extremely uncomfortable for me, I started paying for a first class seat and traveling less often. Now I am someone who "only flies first class" but I can tell you for sure I am not in the same financial class as most of the people I am seated with.
  9. There's a difference between being able to do anything you want and being able to do everything you want. The latter are rich, the former are simply "not poor" and have made choices accordingly. If you can scrape 10 bucks a week off your normal spending, that's $520 a year. Barring disaster, most people can manage that.
  10. I mean, most of these experiences can be had for a handful of NYC gay bar tabs....you don't so much need to be filthy rich as to pick your poison.
  11. Yes but realistically, the fact they are not advertising in places like rentmasseur etc would suggest they probably DON'T want to be discussed on a site like this and then have to deal with expectations they are not prepared to meet from random new clients.
  12. Was it truly a 4-way or were the guys just banging their women in front of each other?
  13. When I was in Boston we used to say "Spring is the nicest day of the year." You don't even really get 8 good weeks of fall because it rains quite a bit.
  14. My mother had a heart attack at dialysis and despite the DNR they worked on her for How many years you will get out of an organ is definitely a factor in allocation, but from googling it appears to vary by transplant program.
  15. My mother was on dialysis for the last 9 months if her life. It's a miserable existence.
  16. Can't really get past the stalking stuff. Why are people lile this rewarded?
  17. If you have money, US is great. It's when you're of modest means it drops in the rankings.
  18. Guessing it was a flight attendant who went into the cockpit when the copilot went to the bathroom.
  19. The ad is one giant red flag. If that doesn't deter you, I don't see why you expect someone else to take a flyer on him. Just do it yourself.
  20. Masseur is in the title for some reason but this is not a massage video...
  21. You could have the mutation and not have the disorder if it's recessive. Good luck. Unicorn your bedside manner leaves something to be desired.
  22. My cat's breath smells like cat food.
  23. Big Jeff from the Gaiety.
  24. I mean, you should expect that the board is acting in the company's interest and that therefore most of the time what they recommend will pass. If their proposals DON'T pass the considerable majority of the time, then you've got a problem with either the board or the shareholders, or both.
  25. If you own your own place and it's in your name, that information is available for anyone who cares to look it up. For that matter mortgages are public record so they can find out how much you owe on the place and your monthly payment if so inclined. So if you're that concerned, don't have them over to your place at all, or wait until it's someone you've seen a few times and have some level of trust with.
