Let me guess...your son threw out your new Russian-sourced power tubes for your vintage amp and you snapped, hitting the local bar for some tequila shooters to blow off steam. Met some hot ladies and got invited to a private poker tournament. There, they used their wiles to distract you and you somehow placed a bet for $20K instead of $20 and now Louie and Sammy Corleone want their money by sundown...

Am I close?

Man it's worse than that. It's just cost of living. My hairstylist is raising prices from $200 to $250, and I can't afford to get both a haircut and manicure at the same time. I've resorted to feeding my son plain old Hebrew National Franks because I've had to fire my chef. I have to scrape my dishes now into the garbage because I can't afford a full time maid. Even the part time maid is getting more expensive. She won't even dress in her provided uniform. Can you imagine that? Jeez, the help these days. $20,000 would cover the cost of my manicures, plus tip of course, and a full time maid. In the meantime I'm forced to put my own dirty underwear into the hamper. HELP! I can't find the washing machine!

I know. You just had to pay the 1st half of your property taxes.


I just dropped $1800, the 2nd half due in October.

Life is good by the lakes. I jogged around Calhoun in that horrendous wind yesterday, but I saw boobies galore. The flavor of Lake Calhoun is much different than Harriet. The latter is much more family friendly. MILF's, old people, little kids... Calhoun is borderline feral youth.

Let me know how well this works, will you? I need only about $8,500.00. In my case it is a REAL need, not some frivilous crap like you've got. I found a very nice SEC for sale . . .

I need only $4000. It is to help the poor starving hookers in NV and myself in the process.

You could start a thread and charge 5 cents admission. Think of all those undeclared nickels.
