Tend to agree with AS.. LOL, by the way, Daddy locked Lucky's Requiem thread after the second person posted a link to MER for those wishing to keep up with Lucky's posts. "Will no one rid me of this turbulant priest?"

Glad you survived your visit to SF, Hito. Happy New Year.

Depends on with whom he was sharing the tub, I would think.

And a happy Holliday to you, Lurker.

Oh my fucking G-d, take a look at Jimmy, the new footman! Good luck, Thomas, I'll be rooting for you.

Best thing you've written in a while, OZ.

I think it's called operant conditioning but then it's been almost 50 years since I took Intro to Psych.

I take it the BFs had some input to add verisimilitude.

LOL, what's the going 'off charge' for room service guys?

Who knew you could subscribe to Comcast in Bangkok?

Actually, they first met while Robin was loitering outside a peepshow near Times Square. Robin approached Wayne, asked if he had a light for a cig and the rest is history.

TY, it ain't just the expenditure side they're goofing on. The tentative Repub offer on the revenue side is a total bluff. Reduce total deductions to $55,000 or whatever? Supposed to result in 800 billion or so in additional revenues mostly from the wealthy (except it aint gonna happen). Every church, university, museum, etc., that has spent the last ten years sucking up to some millionaire to get that big donation lined up would be marching on Washington to exempt the charitable deduct. You think maybe the construction industry won't be opening their wallets to keep the home mortgage interest intact? Those two deducts alone equal about 1/2 the proposed revenue enhancement. And every other deduct has a similar army of supporters lined up to raise holy hell if it's threatened. You think Boner doesn't know the max feasible revenue enhancement available from restrictioning loopholes is maybe 100 billion or so? Basically Repubs are proposing nothing other than a serious attack on entitlements benefiting folks who mostly vote Dem anyway (LOL, Romney's 47%). Now if the Repubs really are interested in rationalizing the tax code, why don't they propose doing away with the 'Carried Interest' monstosity that allows hedge fund managers to pay capital gains rates on ordinary income? That's worth about 100 to 120 billion over the next ten years per the CBO. It's a start. Or maybe that would pinch the wrong folks.

Kiss that...

Dammit, Lucky, you knew perfectly well adding those snippers to your post would give Hito nightmares. Now I'm going to be up all night calming him down.

Damn right, EXPAT! Now how long are we gonna have to wait on Justin Bieber?

LOL, Lucky, you dog, you buried the lead! If lookin hadn't caught it, it would have slipped right past me. Please accept my most sincere well wishes and convey same to your husband.

We are winning because we are winning the battle in the popular culture. The Supremes can ease the way or they can throw up obstacles but they can't very well rule that gay marriage is unconstitutional, lol, so in the end we will win, with 'em or w/o 'em.

Thanks for the link, EXPAT. Frankly I can not see a majority of the Court imposing marriage equality on the red states. Ruling DOMA unconsitutional as it affects rights flowing from valid state santioned marriages is an entirely different matter. There it's difficult to construct a reasoned way to say it's anything but discrimination motivated by malice. Not that that will slow down Scalia.

Too far is never far enough... Where is the shot of him getting squished? First things first.

Maybe La Migra nabbed him.

Dude, gotta love pagans. For me X-mas is all about the flash and the tinsel. LOL, the gaudier, the better.

Exactly, Expat. Royals are notoriously good at making babies. Half of England can trace their ancestry back to one royal bastard or another. Hell the whole damn dynasty tracks back to William the Bastard.

How on earth do you live in Thailand as long as you have and not pick up conversational Thai? LOL, you can take the boy out of Alabama, but you can't take Alabama out of the boy!

AS, the difference is that you're always the one ringing the doorbell and I'm always the one flying through the screen door. ---- And yes, Lucky, this thread has been hijacked. Ransom bids will be entertained in the order recieved.
