ST is football smart - ok so - I may be able to finagle tickets to a Bengal's game through an insurance contact - which one (at their home field) - JenBro Aug 3, 16:09 23

    - Safety in numbers. -- nm - CovingtonCat Aug 3, 16:33
    - someone's going to take you with them on a blind date to a bengals game? -- nm - moles Aug 3, 16:31 6

        my cat has been "weaning me" off feeding her dry food and insisting on the organic chilled wet food that I got her when I thought she was dying. - JenBro Aug 3, 16:12 2
        
        aww, 17. she deserves whatever she wants! - kare Aug 3, 16:40

      - I was referring to subtext, something that isn't always created on purpose by the writer/poster -- nm - con_carne Aug 3, 16:09 2
        
        I'll say it before anyone else has the chance ... subtext is often lost one me :D -- nm - JenBro Aug 3, 16:10 1
