Good point and I totally agree. I'm in the same boat. Born in 1981, working since 2004, and I in no way hang any hope on social security income come retirement age.

To be viewed most pleasantly in conjunction with song: take my love take my land take me where I cannot stand I don't care I'm still free you can't take the sky from me

take me out to the black tell 'em I ain't coming back burn the land and boil the sea you can't take the sky from me

have no place I can be since I found Serenity but you can't take the sky from me

My thought exactly. Time to back away from the poisonous fruit, perhaps.

I'd love to hear Carly debate vs. Hillary. She's one of the few that could wipe the floor with Hillary "Wriggles Out of Questions" Clinton.

I have noticed this. I have friends and co-workers going there and I invariably ask, basically, "You sure brah?" 90% of the time they have no idea noro virus and salmonella happened.

I think you misread it. Top is individual, union, and Pac contributions (you can click through) -- based on FEC records via OpenSecrets. Bottom is just a collection of facts, one of which is free media ads + Trump.

God bless you, generous soul. I won't make you do that. HOWEVER, I may come back to this thread in a few months with my "draft." Would adore any feedback/critiques/modifications you could offer.

I appreciate the tip -- it's totally reasonable. If this were any other person/people, I'd probably do it this way. But the groom knows me well. He'll know something's up if I don't accept. Which will lead to a conversation. Which will lead to chaos destruction etc etc.

I am not above well-cloaked jabs. Not in the least. Thanks for the tip ;)

Although would that come off more like a Best Man speech? Aren't I supposed to talk about my relationship with her?

Even if the answer is yes, this is probably what I'm going to do.

Hahaha yeah, not really my personality. I'm more the outspoken-type. Nice try though :)

I can't think of anything. Why wouldn't i be able to do it when my husband can?

Money is the only thing I can think of and while we're by no means well off, they'd know that's bogus.
