I find using the chicken to measure it to be most successful.

I always make sure a problem involves more than just me and one other person. Then I let them struggle to exhaustion, at which point they are ready to accept my ideas.

So in other words I modified my poll for nothing  :? oh well I hope Roycerson is happy at least

I AM happy.  I had no idea I had that kind of pull.  I already picked one though and there's no going back :(

I went with the second one.  I don't compromise much and I'm not particularly thrilled about it when I do, but it does happen occasionally.

If brute force doesn't work, you're just not using enough.

I have a little 3lb sledge I call my 'fine adjustment tool'.

My cock is a WMD. I'm wanted in 49 countries, including the U.S.

That's why you've fucked more woman than Wilt Chamberlin.
