1) Our dog gets really weird when my wife and I talk dirty.
2) Hot Coffee is a reference to San Andreas.
3) You already knew #2.
4) Maybe you didn't know.
5) Our actual signal in public to say "do ya wanna?" is one wink on the left eye, followed by a three finger tap on the right nostril, two raises of the eyebrows, a kink of the neck to the left, and lastly a cough of "Garfield!".

Any mention of Garfield is terrible code for that. Would automatically put me out of the mood.

Why? James Garfield was a pimp! Nothing is sexier than U.S. Presidential Beards.

It's better than "Droopy". Unless you are talking about cartoons. Droopy wins.

"Do you wanna?" is not code for sexy time. That's what hockey players ask each other before they drop gloves. That and "Have a go?".

Fun fact: A player usually loses no respect for not having a go if he feels outmatched. This happens a lot:

#23 "Have a go?"

#37 "Nah, you've got me on reach and weight"

#23 "Okay"

I'd take Domi vs. Probert over mayweather vs. Pacqiou (sp?) any day.

Smile: my house has been on the market 4 days and (by the time today's over) has had 4 showings. The woman who saw it Saturday apparently said it's her favorite so far but has a few other showings lined up, so fingers crossed there. We'll see what the two showings later today bring.

Frown: the house that looked the most promising to me from the online listings got an accepted offer before I could go see it. And it seems like a month ago, before I was looking for real-real, I found way more promising leads than I am now. I know there's some psychological term for that.

Smile again: actually found two promising leads last night, literally around the corner from each other. Hopefully going to see them tomorrow.

When we were looking for a house, we looked at one that two down and across the street from the one we bought. I can literally throw a frisbee and hit the other house. Funny how it works out that way. I want to say it was the lack of a basement is what was the final straw for us, but the house we got was 30k cheaper.

Smiled - Over the weekend we found a perfect car to replace my wife's aging trailblazer (it just hit 300k). It is everything she wants at a decent price.

Ticked - Thanks to surgeries and pet issues, we dont have enough in the bank to cover the price of the car without killing savings, so we have to finance half of it. I hate financing things, house withstanding. When my car hit 120k, I started throwing $100ish into a saving account every paycheck. So when it needed to be replaced, 130k later, I had pretty much the entire car paid for already. I know that is not something everyone can do, it is just what I did. I just hate it.

It depends. Wifi you have a lot more control over, obviously, but it depends on things like how your house is constructed, and for cell the general quality of the cell reception in the area, which can be exacerbated by the particulars of the house.

No sir. Wifi is generated out of the basement, And there is a celltower about a quarter mile away. Now before they put up that celltower it was spotty.

You can get cell repeaters too now that use your Internet if you have crappy coverage.
