Women - you can't live with 'em, you can't live without 'em

[Hungary Jack]

I like women. I'd like to give this polygamy thing a shot. I have a lot of love to give.

Women, you can't live without 'em and they can't pee standing up.

You guys are all pansies. my girl lives 75 min away and I can only see her once a week. More gets done when you're not making out every night.

I'm a homebody. I had to work in Switzerland last year and they joined me for a little vacation after I was done. Seeing her and my son in the hotel lobby a half a world apart was one of the top 5 events in my life.

This really sucks because I can't even call her. It would be so much better if I could just talk to her.

Your P..sy whipped.........who are you?

I can see why the safety thing would be a concern. My wife does 99% of her work travel in the US. She had one trip to Mexico City, but they were at an American-focused hotel and had a driver to/from the office.

I have a feeling the orphanage has a vested interest in their safety, too. Otherwise, if something went wrong with a volunteer, they'd have a hard time getting people to come back in subsequent years, and obviously they need the assistance.

It's easier said than done, but there's nothing you can do about her safety from IL, so try not to worry too much.

Easier said than done. I just got an email about an hour ago. Let's see, she said that kids and pets are both in desperate need of the most basic things, they had a bad scare with a dog fight that broke out over a scrap of food that was tossed to one of them and a little kid got caught up in the middle of, the outhouses aren't very clean, the bigger kids about trampled the little kids when gifts were being passed out, and it's not uncommon to see kids playing soccer with literally no clothes on.

She took several boxes of old clothing that we don't have use for anymore, so hopefully that last item has been taken care of at least for the time being.

To keep yourself occupied, why not pop in one of Jason LaRue's movies? I hear "Truck Party 4" is awesome.

Well she somehow found a phone and called. Angels from on high couldn't have sung me happy birthday and had it sound any better then hearing her voice.

Ben - just to let you know that my wife and I were long-distancers. I remember when she used to come visit me at school and how God awful depressing Sunday nights and Monday morning would be.

BTW - thanks for the posts in here fellas. It helped.

Happy birthday and stuff.
