I've also heard that Einstein didn't bother to memorize his own phone number in order to keep him memory clear for more important work. After all, why memorize what you can always look up in a phone book?

I use a similar defense with my wife, but she just thinks I'm lazy.

Haha cross! Aint that the dream! And Gillian: yeah you're right I won't deny that. But it's fun to play with stereotypes (as long as you don't truely believe them) and the stereotypical golddigger is female.

Well, yes; when they're male, they're called "gigolos."

Forget about the liquir store. Swap for a daddy who used to be a synth pioneer. Forget about the bass boat. Swap for a private jet. As in jet fighter. No comments on the rich and nymphomaniac aspects.
