  1. Personally, I find it more difficult to type H R U Then to type how are you. The muscle memory just isn’t there for single letter responses.
  2. The first time I was in London, I met a Glaswegian. I couldn’t understand a word, but he was a hot fucker.
  3. If the windows are open I hear a real bell
  4. The ole Mickey Finn was chloral hydrate, which I’ve never seen used.
  5. It’s about a block up from 77 Mass Ave, which is MIT’s address.
  6. As of January 2, 2018, Warren Buffett won that bet. His S&P 500 index fund compounded 7.1% annual gain over 10 years beating an average increase of 2.2% by the basket of funds selected by Protégé Partners. The bet was actually worth 2.22 million at the end, because they moved the bet of 1 million into Berkshire class B shares in 2012.
  7. I just woke up. My cat was lying on my thighs, and greeted me with wanting to be petted all over. When I get up, he’ll make a Belinda for his food dish, even though he has kibble available 24/7.
  8. His penis is the size of Haggis!
  9. I grew up on Yorkshire’s made with beef fat and eaten with beef gravy. In the Midwest. Beef just doesn’t taste the same anymore. My record was 17 at one sitting, but they were small muffin tin sized.
  10. When I was at University if Chicago, their mandatory 403(b) contribution was 5% of your income. Our department chair upped it to 8%. My next job started with 15% then dropped it to 5%. I was grandfathered in at 15%. Now I’m living the good life!
  11. In Jamaica for vacation a few years ago, I had a masseuse give me one of the BEST massages I've ever had. Just sayin'.
  12. Victor, I’ve always been a Queen!
  13. Blowing my own petard here … from lowly Jester to nobility in seven years!
  14. With him, you’ll always know the score!
  15. Tall, hunk, hung … what’s not to like?
  16. ETFs (exchange-traded funds) are inherently diverse. You cAn do the Dow 30 industrials; the S&P 500; NASDAQ; Russell; and the ultimate, the Wiltshire 5000. They have been shown over and over, to beat out managed mutual funds. The $5/trade would lead to a complete churning of your portfolio. One strategy that worked well for me was “The dogs of the Dow.” The 10 stocks with the lowest PE ratio (price to earnings) every quarter were bought! And sold after a year and a day. Returns were usually greater than the market’s. Why is your mutual fund company charging you 1.1% above the mutual funds cost? You’re being ripped off.
  17. I think he means losses.
  18. This sounds like Belter-speak from The Expanse
  19. I like to have a Martini, Two at the very most-- Three, and I'm under the table, Four, and I'm under the Host. = Dorothy Parker
  20. I was in Seattle for a friend's memorial service and ash-scattering. I wanted a little company. Someone suggested that there was an escort I might be interested in. I contacted him ... he wasn't in town. I thanked him for letting me know, and thought nothing more of it. 11 months later, said Escort calls me and tells me he'll be in my city, and was I still interested? Beginning of a beautiful relationship.
  21. I would suggest [open for discussion] that this Fellow, while possibly Preppy, is NOT W.A.S.P.
  22. Just for comparison: It is said that Judas is supposed to be the only disciple looking away (third from the right, in the blue). And there was an apocryphal figure to Jesus's right side, which was a female and subsequently overpainted. Thus the funny looking gap.
  23. Which one is Judas? And where's the bread? And shouldn't the central figure be a tad more Sephardic?
  24. There was a hot bench program (a spin off of judge Judy) Of her young lady who was charging a gentleman for her time to be with him. They all but called her a prostitute, and she saw nothing wrong with that.
