re: the ring thing. I always thought it was weird, but it's up to her. I honestly think he didn't mind that. - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:18 37
- it's not like the ring would've stopped him anyway. -- nm - mafic Feb 19, 18:38 5
  - also, what my grandmother always told my mom about my stepfather "you should marry him before he finds some inuit girl." (they lived in the north) - mafic Feb 19, 18:40 4
    - man, I need to get my DNA checked. -- nm - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:49 3
      - I just ordered geno 2.0 from national geographic! apparently they improved their genographic thing. -- nm - mafic Feb 19, 18:55 2
        
        how does that compare to 23 & me? -- nm - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:59 1

  - yeah, I didn't peg him as that type. so what do I know. -- nm - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:26
- Well, you didn't think that until now. -- nm - spamlet Feb 19, 18:20 26
  - Mo's a complicated guy. his girl on the side does not have anything to do with the ring. - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:26 25
    - Oh, so he has a plethora of great excuses. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 18:27 24

        alrighty, I give. how does someone get that level of clearance when they have mental demons? not screened well enough? -- nm - b. Feb 19, 18:34 20
        
        that stuff does not keep people from clearance. seriously. -- nm - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:36 19

        oh yes they do, believe me I know all too well. - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:52 9
        
        thinking back... I have ONE friend who was committed, and lost her clearance for it. - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:56 8
        
        maybe with the people you know, but it just can't be/isn't the case for everyone. - b. Feb 19, 19:15 7
        
        and more - loosi at home Feb 19, 19:22

        I will give you both money if you let me have the last word on this one. - ralph wiggum Feb 19, 19:21 2
        
        I didn't see this before posting; but you got it: puppies win. -- nm - b. Feb 19, 19:29 1

        It's a Homeland joke. Don't worry about it. nm - ralph wiggum Feb 19, 18:40 1
        
        I googled, I got it. never saw it so I can't say. -- nm - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:48
        
        What I am saying is, clearly nobody can blame him. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 18:31 1
        
        I know you're cynical, and I am as well. but my gut says, it is not like that. - loosi at home Feb 19, 18:34
