office poll. sub-category: filing.... Do you use Legal or Letter sized folders? - Andie Sep 2, 11:44 9
- I use legal so the edges are protected. -- nm - lileve Sep 2, 11:48
- Folders? - Dr.Vermin Sep 2, 11:46 1
  - [deleted]

- Friends of hers have indicated she wanted the real estate and had no interest in the Dodgers. I'll be curious to see what the judge does here. -- nm - David Sep 2, 11:40 5
  - I don't believe that for a second. She accepted the role of President. -- nm - CrankYanker Sep 2, 11:43 4
    - She made sure to get all of the real estate in her name, because that is where her interests fell. - David Sep 2, 11:50 3

        Heh - I just realised I was assuming that alcohol comes just before, with or just after food, which is how I drink it. Now I feel old. -- nm - Roger More Sep 2, 11:38
