First of all, thanks to everyone who commented on my Marriage and Infidelity and Swing Shift Vol 1 posts the last two days. Reading the comments, clearly what was written struck a cord with some of you and was informative for others. What I really appreciated was the give-and-take between readers in the comments section. As long as readers are respectfully of others opinions and are not nasty or mean-spirited with their comments, I welcome that sort of discussion.
In the spirit of imitation being the sincerest form of flattery, my comment policy is shamelessly stolen from the same as Dana’s:
- comments are not pre-moderated and I welcome all thoughts- supportive, critical, whatever.
- anything abusive or threatening, off-topic, or is a personal attack will be deleted.
If you make a comment and don’t see it here, it’s because in my opinion it violated one of the above guidelines and I deleted it. And for the record, I’ve never had to do so, and I hope that doesn’t change.

What the hell is it with people on Craigslist? Veronica and I have used it successfully in the past to sell various unwanted items- Princess Persistents old crib, a TV, a mattress and box-spring, and other misc items we don’t want or need anymore. What bugs me is the person who says “I’ll be over to buy (insert item name) this evening” and then they don’t show up. Which happened to me last night. Veronica was at DBs karate class and brought PP along with her. It was a beautiful evening (for a change) and I would have loved to go for a bike ride, but I was expecting someone to come to the house. Did they show up? No. And to think that I told 5 other interested buyers that this jerk had first dibs.

On to this weeks questions. Oh wait, for some reason there aren’t any posted yet. [UPDATE: scroll down for TMI] If something gets posted later today maybe I’ll find the time to come back and edit. In the meanwhile, here is a picture of Veronica leaning to look out the kitchen window and check out today’s weather. Really, I have no idea how her dress got like that

1. How many speeding tickets have you had? Accidents?
Let’s see, counting, counting… 6 tickets that I can recall. Unfortunately, 3 of them came within 18 months of each other, and NY State law dictated an automatic-don’t-even-think-about-appealing 6 month revocation of my license. Good thing I was in college at the time- not being able to drive wasn’t too big of a hardship. 1 accident- I rear ended someone in Boston traffic- no damage to his car, but I couldn’t say the same about my hood and grille
2. Boxers, briefs or commando?
Calvin Klein microfiber trunks. Occasionally commando
3. Have you ever had sex in your office or your place of employment?
Oh yeah. And in Veronica’s office too. But not in my present office- I think I need to rectify that.
4. Do you or your SO own a motorcycle? Do you ever ride one? Do you wear a helmet when you ride?
I do own one! Go back to sometime in March and there is an HNT with me and my motorcycle. I ALWAYS wear a helmet. Even if it wasn’t the law in MA, as a husband and father it’s the responsible thing to do.
5. Ever been skinny dipping?
I’m afraid not. Something else to put on the to-do list!
Bonus: Ever been arrested? Turned someone in/had someone arrested?
No and No.
