My nephew married a girl from S Africa (a Zulu, I believe). His family was supposed to pay her family a cow. It, of course, doesn't work like that in the UK. Instead of paying cash up front, you pay on the "never-never".
While on the subject of the African dowry, I suggested that as it's supposed to take a large quantity of cow to make demi glace, I suggested it might be easier to ship them a gallon or two. I then wondered if they'd know the difference between demi glace and Gravy Granules, so I suggested a case of that instead.
Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

And your sig is clearly pro-penguin, so it's obviously anti-killer whale.
As someone who quite likes killer whales, I'm offended!

Now that is a clear case of 'reading-between-the-lines'...Where do you came to the conclusion that penguins are involved in my signature?

Marrigae License? Is that something like a driver's license, i. e. do you need to pass a test? And how many hours of theoretical and practical training do you need until you're admitted?

My '94 chevy blazer, what a piece of money sucking, leave me stranded in the middle of f'n nowhere, drives like sh!t, crap! It was the last straw in a succession of lousy american vehicles I've owned. I, and it pains me somewhat to say this, have not purchased an american car since. I'll get my fire suit on now.

Ooooo! Nasty.
There's no one as good at shafting a man as a lawyer: but you're supposed to pick one who's on your side, not hers!

A few thousand on a divorce mediator. Then my ex didn't like what he was saying would likely happen, we both then had to invest in lawyers, and she basically ended up getting what the mediator originally said. Quite a lot of $$ wasted.

Reminds me of my daughter; she gave her soon-to-be-ex a proposed divorce agreement, he got all pissy, ran off to the top divorce lawyer in town and in the end, after he spent well over $5000 and she $3000, they ended with her original proposed agreement! (I was pissed since I "loaned" her the money for the fiasco.)
(By contrast, my divorce itself cost $1050; $700 for the divorce, $350 for the ridiculous paperwork and court order to split a 401k. My ex and I came up with our agreement in two hours and it took three weeks to file and get finalized. Best $1050 [and half my retirement] I ever spent.)

Heh. That reminds me, I have 200 shares of a company I used to work for. Not sure exactly what my cost basis is, but the value is now $2.00.
Oh well, if I ever need a loss to offset some gains...

Me too. And you're right about offsetting capital gains.

Exactly. Taxes. Absolutely the worst thing to have to spend money on. Funny thing is, I wouldn't actually mind paying taxes if I felt I had a say in how the money was used.
