Are you a single lady with other ladyfriends? Have you met Chase?



He's a heck of a catch!

Nope :) ... good to go! Though I'm seeing little cells everywhere and stuck on ACD.

Guess I should have stated my name on the original post. :)

I would like to congratulate limpyweta
That's his 91st post and, so far as I can tell, it's also his first snarky/passive aggressive one.

On this day, Alec, you have become a man.

$10 buys a helluva good bottle of pinot noir at TJ's - or so - at least my ongoing research sez

on the cheap good booze front, the Red Apple on 23rd & Jackson has 650ML of Snow Cap for $1.99/each, and Abyss for $3.99. All of the craft big size beers are cheap, under $5 each. And they had Jolly Roger sixers for a good price and in stock.

I went in for TP and a beer, walked out with $30 in beer. I have to check my receipt but it was ridiculously cheap.

You can call me Josh if it's easier for you. Or you may want to check out this amazing website http://www.hookedonphonics.com... it's got pretty pictures too. LOL j/k ;

I'm thinking the Tuesday and Thursday rides would be the best to start with. My original thought was Kirkland and back (from Ballard), but I'd like to explore other options too.

I'll keep my posts limited to responses only as I've recently realized I haven't earned more just yet. Thanks.

I don't think any of us would recommend either of those rides.
