1) Supposedly LJ, MySpace, and Face Book are all having money troubles and membership plateaus. I guess the decade of pretending that we are all interested in strangers' lives online is coming to a close.

2) The custard stand in our town is reopened for the season. It's called 4 Queens Dairy and their whole culinary itinerary is an obvious rip-off

1) Yr a Republican, or a reasonable (?) facsimile tehreof, you more than some, at laest, oughtta realize, SOMEBODY'S gotta pay to keep that stuff going. Meanwhile, me, as a socialist, I realize I ought at least to pay my fair share, but, as an impoverished socialist, I figure, well, so long as somebody picks that up (say, a wealthy Republican), so long as it lasts ...

They are spacious as all get-out inside. Because the shell supports it's own weight, 100% of the internal space is usable.

It seems like since I turned 25, all of my friends are getting married like dominoes fall, but what's really annoying is how much they expect me to spend and rearrange my life for their weddings.

I have to buy a plane ticket, a dress, a gift, arrange my schedule, etc. Plus, I have a friend getting married in Croatia next year who tells me it's only $1,400 for 10 days to 2 weeks there. I have to spend $1,400 and take 2 weeks out of my life to watch you get married?

If I ever get married, I'm taking the money and putting a down payment on a house, taking an awesome vacation, and just having an open bar night where there will be a giant fishbowl at the entrance that says "It's my turn bitches, pay up."

I have absolutely no qualms about skipping a friend or relatives wedding. I skipped one in 2007 and three in 2008. And I don't make excuses anymore either, I simply tell them I am unable to attend, and if they are nosy and ask why, I tell them because I simply don't want to. From a somewhat Machavaliean standpoint, why bother? As long as you're single and they're married, they're not going to be your friends anymore anyways. Unless you enjoy spending your free time going to their house at their schedule to listen to them and all their married pals tell you how wonderful their snotnosed kids are.

The Croatia thing is tragi-comic. How can anybody be so self-absorbed to think others will willingly spend thousands of dollars "to share in my happiness!"?

"As long as you're single and they're married, they're not going to be your friends anymore anyways."

Wow, you hit the nail on the head with that one! Some of my friends aren't even married yet and they act like that...stop returning messages/emails, etc. but I'm sure I'll still get a save the date card.

I find destination weddings to be totally selfish and an inconvenience one can only impose on their immediate family members if they absolutely must.I barely have money/time for my own vacation- why the hell would I want to spend it celebrating your marriage?

Do you have any idea how funny you are? #5 is practically everybody in Eastern Oregon, and from what I suspect, much of the Mid-west. LuLz.

I don't think I've ever had Fresca. Is that like Pellegrino Aranciata and Limonado? I'm addicted to that stuff. Had it in England with Scones. I danced with joy in my chair. Actually, it was less of a dance and more of a shuffle. But you get the idea.

The caricature of human despair aside, a Quonset hut would make a totally great place to live. They support their own weight so 100% of the interior volume is usable, and their shape induces natural air circulation and cooling.

Fresca is basically like non-alcoholic orange champagne; it's the best way I can describe it. It has a quite unique flavour all it's own. When I moved to CT in 1993, I was ecstatic when I had my first can bedcause at that time it was unavailable in the midwest; and it's not really like any other soft drink and I'd never heard of it before.
