Good job Panda - you used your EQ to win the beauty. EQ took me a long time to develop and my wife has been very patient witn me this whole time. Winning her hand in marriage is my life's greatest accomplishment.

married for almost 30 years and I chose well but had more than 2 hrs to explore for skeletons in the closet. Funny thing is my wife and prior GF were both in long term relationships when I met them - the good ones are always taken!

Is Atlanta still majority African American?

The really old one, the one up the street from the Van Halen house, the one that began with a B or the one over near Hastings Ranch? Or a private like Maranantha? I went to the one by HR. My graduating class was 50% black, 30% Mexican and 20% white/other. About the best part were the Friday/Sat...

you're right to worry. close to a decade of tackle football toughened our kid yet he was still snowflakey when he'd receive criticism and had super low EQ. A few years of college at a Big 10 school far away from home has been a priceless experience to help him get his act together. Now he's VP...

You get what you pay for. For $20 you can get a pound of grass fed ground beef, buns and produce to make 4 outstanding burgers with much higher nutritional content. For $30 everyone gets a half pound burger.

He put everything on the line in 99 to buy an apt bldg in SJC after he left a career running a factory for one of the Detroit automakers and then built a sort of distribution business. His son had not other option, but the JC route is not optimal in my eyes as missing out on the first 2 years of...

These friends are the wealthiest people we know so money never factored in. They recently spent 5 years bulding a 15,000 sq ft palace here in San Jose. The dad is brilliant and his sole wish is to help his kids achieve success. His son's turnaround was the greatest gift ever for him and his wife.
