    “my allowance from 12 years old to 15 years old was 60 dollars a week, but that had to cover both candy and video games”

    I see *rob* was a typical trust fund kid.

    BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZT, WRONG HONEY CHILE! my grandparents were intuitive enough to know that the only way the other kids would play with me was if i had candy on my person at all times and all the latest video games at home for them to come and play with.

    and, like i said a million times before we were living in a nearly free projects apartment, but my grandfather’s income never came into play cuz he only lived there on weekends. so there was a lot of expendible income (a lot being a lot for that kind of situation) and i would have been pretty damn pissy if i wasnt getting a cut of the pie, dont think for a second i wouldnt have snitched on their little schemes.

    Dona, how about wingwomanning for CGar? Is Wu single?

  3. M4L, I don’t know if I have this right, but from what I have seen of Chinese women (and I told you that my best friend growing up was Chinese and one of my dearest friends from the Japan days is Chinese,) is that Chinese women are super hard workers and brought up to be capable and ccompetant and very realistic. And if they are all those things, they get to rule. It seems. I told you about my friend Wu. Holy smokes. There is one smart cookie. Started from swimming with NOTHING to Hong Kong, excaping Mao’s Gang of Four. Now she is a very weathly accomplished lady with business in China, Japan and Canada.

  4. “CGar, how did your dates go?”

    DCB, thanks for asking. I’m not quite off the launching pad yet. I got waylaid by a bad case of the flu, so I wasn’t really up for going out on dates and making a bad first impression (well, worse than I’m going to make anyway). But, to no one’s surprise more than mine, I’ve had a lot of interest, so I’ve been emailing back and forth with several very attractive Asian women, and the next step is meeting in person.
