We look forward to the time when the Power of Love will replace the Love of Power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace.

Superb answers to "Why Aren't You Married Yet?"
You haven't asked yet.
I was hoping to do something meaningful with my life.
Because I just love hearing this question.
Just lucky, I guess.
It gives my mother something to live for.
My fiance is awaiting his/her parole.
I'm still hoping for a shot at Miss/Mr. America.
Do you know how hard it is to get two tickets to Miss Saigon?
I'm waiting until I get to be your age.
It didn't seem worth a blood test.
I already have enough laundry to do, thank you.
Because I think it would take all the spontaneity out of dating.

They just opened a great singles bar on my block.

Why aren't you thin?
I'm married to my career, although recently we have been considering a trial separation.
(Bonus reply for Single Mothers) Because having a husband and a child would be redundant.

Good morning everybnoomie.
It truly is a magnificent Monday.
After 8 hours of walking around on that concrete floor, my feet are having second thoughts about going back to work.....and third thoughts, and fourth thoughts.
It's going to be a long Summer.
Magnificent Monday means the first of three days off, and boy howdy do I have a new appreciation for days off.
Not sure what I'll do. Everything needs cleaning, and I'm not sure where I want to start.
I think that Monday I'll start giving it some thought.
No need to be hasty.
Have a happy day everyone.
