The young woman who was murdered in Philly worked with my daughter @ TGIF downtown.
My daughter said he was a sweet girl, but suspicion fell on the ex boyfriend early in the investigation.
My kid's in college down there and I worry about her saftey every minute.

Reminds me of a young newly married sister in "80's who threw herself off a high rise and killed herself, partly because of being in a bad marriage, to an abusive husband and not receiving any help from her elder father or the body of elders in her hall for herself or her infant daughter.
Most of the details of her suicide was covered up to save embrassment for her "congo" and her elder father.

Hands down - Eyes Wide Shut.
and almost anything directed by Stanley Kubick - I just don't get his directorial style.

Embarrassing moments at work
by damselfly ini think we need a fun fluffy thread today, so this is my attempt at starting one.
at work we have a big bathtub with air jets.
clients come in for a hydrobath, (hopefully remember their swimsuit 'cause i've seen so many naked people by now it's getting boring), leave and then, oh joy!, i get to clean the tub.

I was asked to give a presentation to 40 employees who were visiting from Ireland, China, and Korea.
It was a tag team presentation and my partner was the CEO of North America. Boy was I excited and I really wanted to make a good impression.
Anyway, the presentation went really well and I felt very proud of myself as I stepped down from the speaking area.
Well i really need to pee pee badly so I literally ran out of the room to go to the bathroom. On the way there I was stopped by a collegue who asked me something about work. Almost ready to bust my bladder, I answered him quickly and preceeded directly to the Men's room.
As I get ready to get out my hose, the CEO runs into the bathroom behind me and says " you are still hooked up to the microphone" . Well I give him the mike, he leaves, I finish my business and I walk back into the room
When I enter the room, all forty people stand up and gives me a standing ovation for giving them the best laugh of their 2 week visit to the US.
Of course I have never lived that moment down, and now when ever I do a speaking engagemnet at the company, the running joke is to take my mike off as soon as I finish talking.

I gave about 10% of my earnings from when I was in college and working part time, until about 6 years ago when I left.
I know, I definitely drank the Kool Aid.
My mom continues to give about 10% of her household earnings to the borg. She has mentioned that she will also leave them money in her will when she dies.
Since I am the executor of both her's and my father's estate, I will fight with my dying breathe to make sure that the borg recieves nothing on her behalf.
I have made that clear to both my parents.

One day after my 13th birthday.
I was way too young, but I wanted to please everyone, except myself.

Are You A Male Chauvenist?
by Legolas inare you the type of guy that has to drive even if it is your wife's car?
my husband is not.
we both have our own, but my husbands drives a truck, so going to the meetings i nearly always drove because it is my vehicle, i was never talked to about this, but from the 'looks' i got from the elders i know i would have been if we were still there!

I agree with Undercover - my wife's driving is pretty scary, she even admits that much. So I drive most of the time.
As far as me being a chauvinist, I get acused of that all the time by my wife. I just ignore the name calling.
When my wive pays all the bills and opens the door for me to walk through first and pays for any entertainment outside of the house. Then I will cease to be a chauvinist.
Don't get me wrong I love and respect my wife, but I do enjoy calling the shots.
