    Well it's a long story for me. I have Asperger's Syndrome and very low verbal memory. I've been in and out of jobs the past 10 years...I'm just not fast enough. Right now I am not working and I'm going for disability. I hate to do it because I feel like I'm leeching off the system...but lord knows I've tried these past 10 years. I get embarrassed talking about it but...I like to be honest.

    I've been looking for a good pirate ever since I read about a tanker ship that takes Guinness to Britain for bottling. Let's hijack a whoreship, board the tanker, and get this party started. You in?

    Retail at ***'s? Too bad. I was hoping it had something to do with beaver.

    Tell them to stock some handball gloves and balls. Our local ***'s is getting just like Modell's -- all they sell is team jerseys. I can't even get court shoes there. Move to Dull-Aware, manage the store, and straighten them out

    Wait a minute --- How come the forum software filters out ***'s Sporting Goods but if you leave off the hyphen it will show Dicks sporting goods? Didn't have no prob with beaver.

    I tell ya.
