New To You Too! How Do You Do!

I met a guy on my job, he was a customer and we started making small talk and he was talking about computers and different newsgroups that he's part of. It's funny how small events and seemingly inconsequential conversations can steer your life into new places, isn't it. I've never heard of a newsgroup like this, wasn't even familiar with the format of NG's really and now, after lurking for a few weeks, I'm actually introducing myself and joining the gang. My name is Khrystyne, and if it weren't for that one customer from this NG that I blew in the toilet of a Dunkin Donuts who tried to give me a coupon and then tried to trade me his bicycle rather than give me the 30 bucks, I may have never found you. Glad to meet you all, K

Well, he obviously gave you a tip. You shouldn't be too upset. Just curious though, when you blew him in the toilet, was your face flushed? And is that why they call the place "Dunkin Donuts?" (Obviously, the poster is lying. No MCFLr would give up a bicycle for $30. A used bike maybe, but not a bicycle.)

My best tip? Free needle exchange program. Oh, and sodomy is cheaper than raising young. They should teach it in schools. Luv, K

No, I just thought the poster might have an interesting frugal *hint* & wanted to get away from the political & gun pontificating. <grin> Without a sense of humor, how could we survive?
