mfrese 0 #1 May 5, 2006 It dawned on me the other day that I have a lot of friends, and that they do a lot of cool things for a living. It helps me learn a lot of things I probably wouldn't if they weren't my friends. I have a friend who: - sells weapons (like, bombs and missiles!) - is a chef - is a paralegal - sells GOOD beer (and about whom the paralegal friend recently was heard to say "You're getting paid to drink beer at work, and hot chicks are pouring it for you...you're a GOD"!) - builds houses - builds shopping malls - runs a plant nursery (and gave us free ficus trees) - teaches college - is going to college - goes to Costa Rica every other month (and tries to convince me to buy a house with him down there) - is known as The Rack (tm)v2.0 What cool things do your friends do?Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
