Ahh, but said goods have already tasted North American freedoms and a corresponding hit to the prior perfect scores on subservient / deferential attitude has been taken.

I believe he is searching for an unblemished example.

Meh, I just told my wife I want to go back into the office and work Valentine's night.

It has been suggested I reconsider. She is going to see if she can rope her parents into watching our offspring on Monday (civic holiday) so I can work Monday instead.

Otherwise, I'm going to be looking after them on Monday while she's on call and I might work Valentine's then. Not that I really intended to do much for VD...maybe cook a nice dinner.

We don't really celebrate it that much.

We don’t either. Our anniversary is a week after VD and I argued from the very beginning that to celebrate VD would cheapen our anniversary celebration a week later. I got a little bit of a sideways look, but it worked! I get off scotfree on VD...woohoo.

Well done.

Just this morning, I was arguing that we shouldn't celebrate Valentines Day if she was not going to observe the March "holiday" being Steak and BJ day.

She advanced the view that just because I made up a day in March doesn't make it as significant as Valentine's Day. Counsel for the defence proposed that my opinion on what constitutes a day of celebration is in no way inferior to whoever it was that first made up Valentine's day and thus equal weighting should be given to both.

The jury is still out. But counsel for the defense is already considering avenues of appeal based on the looks received to their closing arguments.

Defence could use some help from the forums. Any female input that could destroy her case? bimmette and Lups ? Otherwise, I think I might lose this one. And I do truly hate losing.

Surprisingly, that too is a...umm...*bone* of contention. She is watching my red meat intake carefully. Something about me going to wind up with a poo bag and what not when I'm older if I don't cut it back.

But I do love steak. Among other things.

Sounds similar to the idea that eating sugar leads to "the diabetus." Just eat some Quaker oatmeal the next morning.

Just so you know, I'm not the one who started that grand tradition. A couple of years ago I was VERY sick with Pneumonia like symptoms and could sleep so what was I doing...I was on BP. jtodd_fl and shoei were also on at that unGodly hour and asked what was going on. I told them how sick I was and BAM, I new tradition started.

This is important in the lore and history of BP OT. Spread this far and wide just as you will spread the message of Joy on VD!

Yes, and I have no trouble believing shoei would do such a thing. I believe at the time he was involved in a mortal fight against Miss Piggy and needed money to build his own Frankenstein.

Sadly, based on ASBSECU E93 last post, it seems Shoei's Frankenstein took a weird approach to winning the fight and simply ate Miss Piggy and gained 1500 pounds...but with no corresponding power increases.

Is that about right ASB? Or was Shoei the winner? I can never remember...
