Great discourse/flirting. Did it occur to you that she may just wear the ring to avoid being asked out all the time by customers? Even if she IS engaged, there is no harm in a fun flirt!

"would i offend you if I asked asked if that is a REAL?" My reply was (with a smile on my face and looking down at her chest) "would you be offended if I asked if those were real?"

We both had a good chuckle!\
I was about to ask her out and then I noticed an engagment ring
Oh well, at least I got a funny story to share with you guys.


That is a great story! I will put that line on my list! But at the end she might have tought the GMT was as fake as hers!!!!

Actually, depending on how you look at it, a $38 cash balance in ones checkiing account is a GOOD thing if he's got the other $50,000 sitting in a GIC.

Checking accounts offer little if not ZERO interest. To maintain a $10,000 monthly balance in ones checking account after all bills are paid would be a poor financial decision.

The balance one should leave in a checking account should be proportional to what must go out on a monthly basis in bills, mortgage payments, and an allowance for incidentals.

All other cash should go into a safe investment like Government bonds, etc etc. At the very least, put the money in a savings account.

Bank teller, cleaveage and rollies

Ya, that guy is right......without pics this thread is dull. Maybe a new section should be Rolex and parts ? How come Rolex does not have any ads with scantily clad ladies holding a Rolex near their chest ? Ya know, something classy like that ? Or a chick in a bikini bent over a Harley with a Rolex on her ankle ? Just wonderin'

I need to quit banking on-line and actually go into my bank one of these days. Who knows what I might find.

Truly a great exchange. Even if I had thought of it, I probably wouldn't have the balls to say it. Would have loved to see her face when you said it.
