Baby step though it should seem, it was a big step for me.

Took me forever to find somebody who did not try to buy me dinner first.
I know...right?

I am inundated every week...with those offers.

I personally look with a jaundiced eye, towards those who can afford mass mailings...and taking me out to dinner.

Much less those that have enough...to sponsor polo teams.

I mean cripes, it doesn't take a genius to figure out...how they make enough money to do all that 'advertising.'



PS. What is wrong with 'investing' in Beanie Babies/Pez Dispensers?
