Guest FourAces Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Not sure if this will work or not but lets give it a try. We all have totally random thoughts throughout the day ... what is the randomness in your brain? For whatever reason I was thinking about the secret service and why President Carter disliked them so. Then I remembered ... when he was president he was using the bathroom. It was during his first few months of office and I believe this incident happened in the residence of the White House. He was sitting on the presidents throne and pushed a button he thought would turn the lights on brighter. What he pushed was a panic button and the secret service near instantly broke down the door huge guns drawn while Jimmy sat in disbelief The story goes he was not very thankful or understanding Quote
Guest CharliePS Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 There was an article in the Sunday paper about what people do with their names when they get married. It claimed that the new trend is for women to take their husband's last name, but to use their maiden name as their middle name (Mary Jane Doe marries John Smith and calls herself Mary Doe Smith, or Mary D. Smith). I had always assumed that was the standard practice, since my mother did that when she married in 1937, and I never heard anyone comment on her usage. When my partner and I were married two weeks ago, there was a separate section on the license in which we could indicate whether we wanted to change our names, with suggested possibilities. We couldn't think of any change that made sense, so we crossed that section out. As my partner told the clerk, "I've had this name for 78 years--it's on every damn document I can think of! Why would I want to change it just because I'm married?" Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 That makes sense and I love your partner's witty answer! Congrats on your marriage and wish you many happy years.. We couldn't think of any change that made sense, so we crossed that section out. As my partner told the clerk, "I've had this name for 78 years--it's on every damn document I can think of!

Guest hitoallusa Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 I love movies or dramas where a bodyguard falls in love with his client. Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 I'm pissed because my company has cancelled my executive pension and now they are coming after the regular pension. No soul - this new (or not so new) CEO. It has totally screwed up my retirement plans. And I'M ROYALLY PISSED today. That is not only my random thought, it is a thought that has consumed me for the last week or two. Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 I'm sorry to hear that. Can you sue the company?

Members RA1 Posted July 23, 2013 Members Posted July 23, 2013 I know a guy who took the maiden name of his wife as his "new" middle name. But he did a lot of odd things. I actually don't know what she did in that regard. Never thought about it until now and have never met her so that is one reason for not asking. Best regards, RA1 Quote
Guest zipperzone Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Two random thoughts for today 1: I'm sick to death of hearing about the royal baby. 2: I'm sick to death of hearing about Nelson Mandela's health. Quote
TotallyOz Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 I can't wait to hear the Baby's name. I wonder if I will get laid tonight. I hope that Game of Thrones comes back soon. Why do I like watching old men in the jacuzzi so much? What the fuck did I do with my chapstick? Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 You have two bfs living with you.. I don't think you will have problem getting laid.. I can't wait to hear the Baby's name.

TotallyOz Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 You have two bfs living with you.. I don't think you will have problem getting laid.. True, if I ask for it. But, I much prefer someone just pushing me down on the bed and having their way with me. RA1 1 Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 On my Oz, why do you want to get rapped? Lol just kidding.. I guess you mean some spiced up sex.. I hope you can get it tonight.. True, if I ask for it. But, I much prefer someone just pushing me down on the bed and having their way with me. Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 I was at the gym this morning and there was a cute guy working out around me and he had on white long basketball shorts and he clearly was not wearing any underwear or jock strap because his rather large penis was moving freely around inside the baggy white shorts. At least I could tell he was circumcised. Very hot and tempting. For some reason I decided to use machines around him all morning. Quote
AdamSmith Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Having finally succeeded in a 4-month struggle to get through to the real decision-maker at a company I am selling to, I just learned that not one, not two, but three contracts may be available. What today's overriding thought ought to be: How to maximize (1) my odds of getting all three and (2) the revenue in each. What it actually is instead: When is the soonest I might get my hot little hands on the first payment? TotallyOz 1 Quote

Guest hitoallusa Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 I love peach color too.... I need to paint my entrance door... I don't want a bright color on the door and haven't decided what color would be good on it. I need to do some repairs around the house and it will be so easy if I have a husband who is good at doing those things. I will just sip lemonade and chat with nosy neighbors while he fixes things.. Life will be so easier.. Lol Peach. I think I'll paint the ceiling peach! Quote
