Congratulations to me! I'm finally going to become a productive member of society!!!

I report June 17th to Oklahoma City, where I will begin my training to be an Air Traffic Controller in the U.S. National Airspace System.

I want to thank my parents for supporting me and for not giving me too much hassle about my joblessness. I also want to thank my friends here at BT for giving me intellectual stimuli while being unemployed!

I am going to be rich you suckers!!! Laughing

Hey, congratulations on the new job. I've been feeling bad about starting a discussion with you then disappearing. Life suddenly got very busy for me too, so I haven't been on the computer very much. Have fun in your new line of work! It's reassuring to find out the person in charge of making sure one's plane stays a safe distance from other planes, is an intellectual type. Smile

Very funny!!!!

Actually they moved my date back from June to July; so I'll be using that time during late June to take a vacation.

Guess where?

Costa Ricaaaaa!!!! It's going to be great. Me and a couple friends are renting a house down there and we're going to party our asses off. I don't need to tell you that prostitution is legal down there.

Let's just say, I'm bringing a bag full of latex for a reason!

Someone needs to volunteer for discussion leader of Your Inner Fish!!! Smile

I've already read ahead but I can't think of how to start a discussion. This is my first BT book anyway, so I'm not going to volunteer.

If you're a BT member and you haven't led a discussion yet, this is your opportunity to help serve our community!

Many moons ago - there was an advertisement here in England - for Condoms.

It showed two heads on a pillow in a bed. But at the bottom of the bed there were loads of pairs of feet.

The caption said.....When you sleep with someone, you also so sleep with all the other people they have ever slept with. Yeuch, Yeuch, Yeuch!!!

IMO some people have a very odd way of enjoying themselves. No

I hope you have a great time in Costa Ricca (I only know of it from the old film ' West Side Story') - the people look wonderful.

Laughing Thanks Penelope!!! That's exactly what I want to be thinking about on my vacation! You're supposed to support me!

It's going to be incredible. I'm going to clear out my bank account and spend until I run out of money or I die of exhaustion. By the time I get back I'm going to be 50 pounds lighter from all the exercise.

This is going to be the best diet, ever!
