no, checked on the price though, $12,000 is a little to much for me, if I lose my job/coverage right now I will be fucked.

It means that the sun reflects off the Pacific Ocean and produces more light. Great for photography. (Isn't that why you live there, Eric?) Seriously, the people in Nebraska just don't have as much light as we do.

Re: The person below me
Nope not at all.
As to the above. Creepy? Misogyny? Whatever, women seem to share medical problem among friends more then men do.
Fuck men don't even like to share our problems with our own doctors.
Unless its smashed, torn, broken, or will not quit bleeding.

Re: The person below me
More like bloated. I had the waffle special, waffle, "two" eggs and two pieces of bacon. That was more like six eggs. Or the eggs are from large geese. Or... a single ostrich egg. I don't know why I didn't leave more on the plate.
tpbm thinks that by ordering only two eggs, I only had to eat the equivalent of the 7 eggs I got.

Re: The person below me
I'm a firm believer in only eating the amount you're hungry for. If you were hungry for those 19 eggs, by gum eat them! If not, leave what you don't want.

Was told that often enough as a kid. My response was that if i got something I liked they would not have to mail it to Africa.
Of course that did not go over well with my parents.
