I rented a car, drove to Coba for the day from Playa del Carmen. No issues at all. Climbing the pyramid at Coba is absolutely awesome!
We stopped at the Grand Cenote on the way back, which was pretty darn cool, too. There's a lot of cenotes, so I can't really speak to the others.

Nate's model actually underestimates Trump's support (or it could be the polls are under polling Trump voters). If Nate says Trump is ahead, he really is way ahead.

The wingnuts were all over Nate's polling in 2012, insisting that he was undercounting the 'Pubes.
Look how that turned out for 'em.


I'm sure that someone will also make up blatant lies about Trump then state "he didn't win, did he?"


What are you talking about?

He seems like a solid choice for VP.

He was extremely polished and well-spoken. Much more so than I expected. I am not sure what I expected but Gov. Pence seems to be a confident, kind, strong leader.

So, I disagree with Ann Coulter about this choice.

I am also impressed with Trump for choosing Pence and not someone with baggage like Newt or Christie.


You are making this up, aren't you?
Anyone that watched that interview was embarrassed for Pence.

Remember, divorce isn't any easier emotionally.


We're already doing that. And I go separately. My kid is 6. She knows something isn't right, but I try to put up a good facade.




This is the right thing to do, the individual therapy and as a couple.
It takes time. Not forever, but it's not instant, either.

To entertain yourself they give you placemats with the US capitals missing and you have to fill in as many as you can. Heminways might be open but I've only eaten there at dinner. So,, check the website before you go

Holly's was on the other side. Been closed down for a while, though. It was a good place.
It will be hot tonight in your house.
Do you have a basement that stays cooler, like my house's basement?
You can set up and air mattress down there.
Otherwise, Mom's is the place.
It's expensive. Not too far a walk, but it's expensive.

Straight men are rarely "just being nice". If he's going out of his way to be nice, he's interested. More than that, he's probably going to expect some reciprocal "niceness" from you.

Realistically, very few people are genuinely altruistic. Everybody wants something.


Straight men are rarely just being nice just to be nice. They are looking for any opportunity to take their penis out of their pants and stick it somewhere.

Not just anywhere though. It has to be warm and wet.

I did this one summer while in college. It was hard work but predictable. Everyday started at 6:00 AM, but we spent the first hour, until 7:00 when we actually started work, at local diner having breakfast, which was just a cup of coffee and cereal. One of the customs for this job back then.

Manager teamed the college kids with the trucks that did not have felons. The ex-felons where on a bunch of trucks but we never interacted with them other than driving past each other in morning and at dumps. Did not really understand the reason for the grouping until later in life. Owner eventually retired to florida.

But for short term, it was fun hanging on the back of a truck and going through neighborhoods. I learned the distinctive smell of maggots. Usually from business trash sites. Also there was one customer that would let the garbage collectors use his home pool during the rounds. We would stop for about 30 minutes. He told stories about labor union leaders from the 30's. This was in the 70's when I did this. Very kind old man back then.

I could not do it forever, it is very physically exhausting work to do every day.

When I was a kid, this looked like the coolest job because of this + wear whatever you want to work.
I've since wised up that it was not a great career path
OP, you've hit a bad stretch right now. It won't last forever. There will be good stretches ahead, just you wait and see.
In the meantime, try to change things up from how you've been doing things. If you don't exercise, start doing some kind of exercise.
The physical activity is good for your mental health.
I wish I could tell you more, but tough times don't last, tough people do.
I guess you're trying to get out of DC, but really there are so many museums, monuments, etc in DC that going elsewhere is kind of superfluous.
When they were young, going to the park that is at the end of National's runway was good for an hour or so of fun. Planes come in so low!
They don't have any special knowledge about you or you PC. They just randomly dial numbers until someone answers.

I usually listen to what they say, then tell them their mothers would be ashamed of them scamming people like this and they should find a legitimate job to do.
