Odd. Home is the only place I access it.

Is almost, but not quite as good as the sax in "Can't You Hear Me Knockin'."

I talk to strangers on the bus all the time. I've never tried to hit on anyone, though. I did throw a guy off a CTA bus once for bothering a girl, touching her hair and saying all kinds of nasty stuff to her.

Hey, we very politely ended that debate days ago. It's your turn to come up with some stupid topic to... Oh. Yeah.

Thanks!!

That's what I was thinking. I have known of women to cry, scream, moan, even chant "no, no, no" when they were coming or close to it. (most of it heard through thin apartment or dorm walls) I'd like to think I would be sensitive enough to know when my partner was actually in pain or really meaning "no." But I'd also like to think that before I slept with a woman we were at least close enough for her not to fear saying "Stop. You're hurting me."

Yup. I'd also like to think that a woman who says and means "no" (because "no" really does not always mean "no"), would progress pretty quickly to "stop, you're hurting me" and if that didn't work to "get the fuck off of me you asshole". And then, as Dan Savage says, DTMFA.

Two kids and she's still picking you up at the airport? Wow.

No, no. The correct answer was "Here, let me google that for you."

(Just kidding. I love Wonk like a crazy grand-uncle. He knows that.)

They're all under the same ATC, and the afternoon sucks for all of them. I have spent hours on the tarmac either waiting to leave (43 for take off!) or waiting for a gate (4 hours for an international connection at EWR should be enough to allow for a long meal, but no!). Just look at the flight times for things like the DCA flights--it's a 30 minute flight, listed at 1h10m. And the median time probably is 1:10, with massive variation.

Personally, I think it's time we brought back Breasticle Day. But we may need to bring in some new members first. I don't want to see a pic of your saggy man-tits.
