<p>...Waitaminute, this biological coupling is delicious! And eligible for multiple tax exemptions.</p>
<p>All joking aside though, God bless those compsci eunuchs and their barren-wombed betrotheds.</p>

		    <description><![CDATA[<p>@<a href="#c5350564">sample032</a>: I got a little farther. I mafe it to "...junior league pedigrees" before I threw up in my mouth a little bit.<br>
As to why it's not illegal, here's an old joke:<br>
A man meets a woman at a party and asks her if she'd have sex with him for a million dollars. She says, "sure". Then he asks if she'd have sex with him for $100. She slaps him and says, "what do you think I am"? To which he replies, "We've already determined what you are, now we're just haggling over the price".</p> <p>bugz321</p>]]></description>

<p><a href="http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2007/02/rich-nerds-eager-to-please.php">[www.radaronline.com]</a></p>
<p>"For starters, Linx memberships START at 5K, so please, for yourself, your readers, etc, post accurate info. It's annoying ....." Get your facts straight.</p>
<p>I also would like to offer my props to VW for giving Linx a chance. However, I don't understand the idea of a matchmaking service with such strict requirements wanting to be placed in front of masses of normal people. You have to pick out these people by hand, after all.</p> <p>Bornean</p>]]></description>
