The Husband Store
A store that sells new husbands has opened in New York City , where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:
You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs.
She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.
'That's nice,' she thinks, 'but I want more.'
So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.
'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.
She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.
'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!'
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.
She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.
To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives store just across the street.
The first floor has wives that love sex.
The second floor has wives that love sex, have money and like beer.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited.

Aww! No sad faces! :D
So is it looking like you will be visiting the area?
Not right now. I have yet to hear back on anything. Of course, my father in law keeps telling me that Charles County is desperate for teachers so I'm still hopeful.

Hee hee. Which one? I'm in the mood to see a train wreck.

I have just recently started venturing out of the comfort of this thread. I like the boards...they are my happy place, where I come to relax...somethreads are just not productive to this..so I stay out. Plus when I get upset or angry I tend to not make intelligent valid points, forgoing them for something more in the range of..."Yeah, well, you shut up!" *giggle*

Good luck, David.
On a side note, I-85 just south of Charlotte has a billboard promoting ECU's education degree. It's got a guy standing at a chalkboard underlining "North Carolina NEEDS teachers". Ironically, NC laid off a bunch of teachers earlier in the year.
A few of their districts are also under a hiring freeze. Kinda counterproductive to education one would think!

That would be a move to Maryland, David?
Here's a question for you Taig. If you're a theist, why didn't God make hot coffee to come from boobs?
** spoiler omitted **
Because that would take away free will. :)
And, yeah, just from the thread title, it looks like it could devolve into e-shouting.

Taig, what is the Carolina Con you were talking about a few days ago?
I mentioned that, didn't I? I got way distracted this week.
-->Here's the website. It's June 4-6 next year, in Charlotte. Neil Spicer was talking it up, and it sounds like they have a good gaming presence there. I'll have to check my kids' school schedule to see if they can make it, but I'm definitely considering going.

Shiny, thanks for the info! As for getting distracted....well we were talking about Boobs..its understandable! ;)

Hmm...beer would solve the burning problem, but not the free will problem. If I'm willing to give up a measure of freewill, heat-resistant boobs would likely not have the same enjoyable qualities...lukewarm coffee sucks. It's tough to have a "best of all possible worlds".
Beer that comes from Breasts?! Wow...we would rule the world! 8D

I suppose that would depend on how well the shirt fits from day to day...;)

I have come to the conclusion, for most, that it is easy to side track a man. He could be talking about something rather serious and all you have to do is but whisper one of a handful of words and his attention is yours. Boobs (and any variant of said word), Beer, Food, New video game, sex, and of course....girls who like girls...
Again this only goes for most men...
