*snort* actually, the assasign tasked bots look like christina hendrix. We find that they come back to base with no damage.

Are they articulate?  And do they come with a "good Bible"???   :P

Well looky-here, new female on board related foolishness.  And I almost missed it. 

I'm all in favor of marriage, even though my spouse ran off in the past year.  So did my dog. 

I miss my dog more.

Wouldn't mind trying out a wife, but not so much on a permanent basis.  Anyone want to lend me a wife for say, three weeks or so?

I would, but mine ran off too.  Regardless, I wouldn't do that to you.  :P

Truth.

My dog never lied to me.

And the dog smelled better.

And was more self-sufficient.

And took better care of me and my kids.

And enjoyed going for a run with me from time to time.

Damn, I miss my dog.

Sorry to hear that you didn't recover your doggy.  :'(

I love mine to death, don't know what I'd do without them.

Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Ouch.

Not sayin' it's unjustified, given that you were there and I wasn't, and from your posts WRT various... issues over the years, it sounds ENTIRELY justified - but still, ouch.

Well done.  And once more, my sympathies on that regard.

But I'm not lending out my wife.  And we don't have a dog (because of her allergies.  We'd LIKE to have one, otherwise).

Am I the only happily married guy on this board? >:D

I got a dog for my wife a few years ago.
best trade I ever made.

I've gathered from your posts that you aren't from/in the US.  If I might inquire, where about in the world are you from?

I live in the kleptoanarchy sometimes referred to as the Czech Republic. Mostly. I was born in Czechoslovakia...

Ah. A maid is a domestic servant. I was kind of worried it's one of them japanese fetish oddities.
Funny thing.. one branch of my family had a domestic servant... under communism. The wife was rather ambitious and didn't want to do housework in addition to having a career..

See, everybody ought to have a maid, someone who you hire when you're short of help, to offer you the sort of help you never get from a spouse...

Apologies to Sondheim.  And Plautus.  :laugh:
