The Halfway House (HalfwayHouse)

[AKvetch]

There must be some mistake. I didn't order any Bill from Sears. Maybe Susie did? Isn't Bill the fence guy Soxie uses?

AK

[BullNBear52]

He has been trying to find your grass hut to deliver your Sears Bill to.

[AKvetch]

Which reminds me, anybody heard from Bill the postman?

AK

[Susie924]

Troy will have something to say about that!!!! Or is it Phil?
<ggg>

[AKvetch]

In Matt's case I think she must also be a famous singer or movie star, so he has to be content now with the waitress who gets him fried pickles. He'll come around.

AK

[AKvetch]

I've heard it was on, then off, then on. Beats me. Ask Matt?

AK

[BullNBear52]

Doesn't every young man want a girl in bobby socks that he can have his way with?

[Susie924]

I love your reasoning AK!
So when is the big blast in Vegas????

[AKvetch]

Had you thought he may prefer the Vespa?

AK

[sarals]

that's a great idea, thanks :)

[AKvetch]

That's a good question. If you read the old newspaper account of Matt, published June 17th 2001, it says he is 18, so he could have been 18 or 19 then. So, that could infer he will be 20 or 21. I thought 21 by all the kidding about having to wait until the summer for the iHub Las Vegas get together.

AK

[BullNBear52]

Not with a babe like that he doesn't!

[BullNBear52]

Seriously, A gift card to his favorite store.

[AKvetch]

Are you talking about Matt? Doesn't he already have a Vespa?

AK

[BullNBear52]

A Vespa and a hot babe....

[AKvetch]

Yeah, and to celebrate, Matt bought another message board.

AK

[sarals]

Yahoo? RB is bad, but Yahoo is a cesspool.

[AKvetch]

You mean, like iHub and S.I.? Why RB, of course. And next year, Yahoo!

AK

[sarals]

I'd be thrilled!!! can I be 39 again?

I asked because 21 was a big deal for my daughters... they really went out and painted the town red.

[AKvetch]

So drinking that diseased wine gave birth to the Texas Two-Step?

AK

[sarals]

LOL... I didn't think about that... but you're right :)

[BullNBear52]

If he behaves we will let him live to his next birthday.

[sarals]

actually, the kid I'm talking about has had it rough. He's mom and two younger siblings live in a real small apartment. He's worked part time while finishing high school to help out his family. I'd like to do something nice to help him out and reward him for making it through. He's always been very respectful to me and even got all over my son once for being snippy with me. He's truly an exceptional young man.

[AKvetch]

Nice phrasing sarals. How would you feel if it was your birthday, and someone asked if you were going to be 39, again.

AK

[BullNBear52]

So would their wives as they protect their pockets. lol.

[fung_derf]

What do you get the kid that has everything?

[fung_derf]

WE don't actually ever drink the wine! We bottle the stuff up and ship it to France as a novelty drink so they can despise us a little bit more.

[Susie924]

How old will Matt be?

[sarals]

is he going to be 21 yet?

[sarals]

I'm seriously thinking about it... the guys I work with would love it.

[AKvetch]

Yeah, but it is Matt's birthday soon. He should get some recognition for that.

AK

[BullNBear52]

Order 20 and spread the fun!

[sarals]

this is the one I want!

[BullNBear52]

Gift certificates work for me!

[sarals]

Don't leave Bob out... he is the true geek around here :)

[sarals]

actually, that's a good question. ONe of my sons friends is graduating this June and I've received an invitation to his celebration party. What do you give these days?

[BullNBear52]

He's on the road with H & T doing dog and pony shows for the 50B shares they just printed.

[AKvetch]

And you thought you were safe drinking a California wine. Gee, I didn't know they had vineyards in Texas...

Maybe this is what you have?

AK

[BullNBear52]

He needs to apologize to MMMary for forcing her to post on SI.

[fung_derf]

Oooops! I guess I better order them! Now, where is that T/A hiding now?

[fung_derf]

It is, it's like Jock Itch, only you get it from laying around on the couch drinking Two Buck Chuck all day.

[BullNBear52]

Are you going to use your PCBM certs? If so make sure the ink is dry.

[fung_derf]

I say we wait til next week and buy him 4,000,000 of them!

[AKvetch]

And what demand did you make for Matt redeeming himself for your deleted post?

AK

[BullNBear52]

I heard Matt also had a school assignment to finish. Something about writing 500 times on the blackboard, "I will not delete Churak."

[AKvetch]

Sounds painful. Be sure to see your doctor.

AK

[BullNBear52]

That is today's market price. Unless you want to wait till next week?

[AKvetch]

He also has to finish writing his Moderator's Handbook, as well as working on the User Agreement and FAQ. I suppose if Soxy has time he could do that busywork for the Sheriff.

AK

[BullNBear52]

Love is never having to say you're sorry.

[fung_derf]

Is that in present value or figured in next weeks price of $10 per share?
