@Matt Re:#20
Early afternoon buzzes kick ass. Nothing like warm sunshine to enhance to the coziness. Have another for me, I go into work in an hour ><.

Ahhh…Relaxing on the beach like Shamu, showing your “Raider style” gut scar, sucking on suds while the tree’s are full of people with banjos and asking you to squeal like a pig….the good life indeed!
Sounds like fun!

sitting on a beach? Are you earning 20% while you do so?
/Die Hard
and hey, WTF – I use the word “supra” all the time. And I’m an asshole lawyer-type. Ohhhh, it all makes sense now.

In #13… should we replace “Fate” with “Durga”?

What sort of beer? If it is a good one, have one for me.

You see, it is acceptable to drink more if you are drinking for somebody else.

@Matt: Happy almost B-Day! You can always look at turning 30 several different ways. For example, you are younger than BFD, Stacy, and myself. You are ONLY three decades old. You are “6″(times 5) or “5″(times 6), or “3″(times 10), or “10″(times 3). I’m only 18 1/2(times 2). See…doesn’t that sound so much better? Ok..maybe not. You are getting REALLY old, and you use the word “Supra”. That says it all!
If you haven’t been already…go to a bar called the “Flora-Bama”. Total dive, but good times to be had.

you should try ice chilled champagne on the beach then sex on the beach after you’ve turned forty.”
He thinks you’ll have sex after 40. How cute!

Absolutely not. “Banned” is not negotiable. I rule.

Seriously, though…no.

Sigh, I know. It’s why you make me wear the cock ring with your initials, isn’t it?

I just went back and found the thread you were talking about. Fucking hilarious. (Both fists? Jesus.)

BFD knows I love him. Or, perhaps more accurately, knows I need him around here way too much to have him killed.

@Matt: Yes, both fists. Stacy has small hands…just like…well….Anyway, glad you enjoyed it.
@BFD: I can’t stand being 2 points down! I’m gonna have to take Stacy out!

That’s almost precisely how my personnel review was worded, too.
