LawTalkers - Welcome back E/O, leagl and Fringey: no one say the name "Penske" 3 times in a row

I dunno--I mostly think you can get something that works just as well for a fraction of the cost. I have one of the Martha Stewart enameled-cast-iron dutch ovens from Macy's (in robin's-egg blue), and it works great. Watch the ads and buy it when it's 50% off for the biggest bargain going.

Oh, yeah, on your recommendation, I bought a Martha Stewart dutch oven at 50% off at Macy's. I forgot it was from that jailbird and not from the frogs. You are also the reason I have a Cook's Illustrated subscription and a son who devours pea soup.

What about pulling your blackberry off of your "tool" belt?

Of course he doesn't. Because you told him you had made arrangements for something sexual, but didn't tell him any more.

One morning, I threw a stapler across my office and against the wall, where it left an indentation. The throw was accompanied by an exclamation of profanity, the combination of which scared the secretaries outside my office. I received a gentle talking to about this behavior. I am not proud of it, but under the circumstances, it was entirely justifiable conduct.

Well edited. I knew I could count on you. You're the type of guy I'd want next to me in a foxhole in the heat of battle or next door to me in the next corner office over, not counting all the non-corner offices in between, which I don't.

AoN, the other day my boyfriend got very frustrated (not at me) and threw a shoe against a wall. I thought it was pretty sexy.

Bullshit, he slammed it down on the podium he keeps in his apartment for shoe slamming times of frustration. Don't modify the story just to protect against the stereotype.

"Who do you want? Hold a moment. Who is it you want?" (as I put it in words it seems less rude, but she was rude)

I took my phone and slammed it about a dozen times on the table- luckily I didn't have an air horn. But then I realized I had to speak to the official so I had to call her back. When she answered I apologized and claimed my phone fell off the table. She was actually nice then.

What? And allow the alleged-libertines (but in reality blue-nosed puritans) who post here to tsk-tsk? Why should she do that? If one discusses a Not Vanilla sexual activity here, one hears a chorus of "ewwwwwws." For a group proud about collectively low purity scores, we sure are prudish.

Just ask [redacted]. [redacted], or [redacted], who made the mistake of discussing [redacted], [redacted], and [redacted], respectively.

My interest in flightless waterfowl thus remains a secret.
