I love the NATO spending angle on this.

Promise to spend more on military. Build bridge. Call the bridge military. Success.

Same for the United States of America.

That's the reason for taking the car. No fucks are given in regards to who owns the vehicle. If you get caught driving insanely in your friends car, it's your own problem to explain to your friend why he doesn't have a car anymore.

The only time I've heard of them returning the vehicle to the actual owner was when they confiscated a bus, which was needed for public transport.

The difficulty is that the goat is tied to the fence.

It would be a lot easier to put a pole in the center of the circle.

The length of the rope would then be 0.5 x sqr(2) x fence radius.

That's sounds exactly like what someone trapped inside a singularity would say.

Close but no, Siddhartha is the name of Buddha. You're thinking of Sepultura.

I think it's impossible to assume anything at all. With cultural, age and gender differences, it's difficult to figure out what the intentions of another person are, unless they state them clearly. Neither you or he did that.

As a guy, I can assure you that guys do not understand subtle hints or can even logically deduce where this casual acquaintance is going from what you have already described.

You'll need to be very clear. Maybe then he will also tell or show you his own intentions more clearly.

But first you need to know yourself what you actually want to hang out with this guy for and if it's worthwhile maintaining the friendship for whatever reason. It makes sense if you have mutual interests or benefits from keeping in touch. However, my best guess based on your description of him offering a back massage is that he might have more romantic intentions than you. In that case it's best for both of you to be brutally clear and end his hopes instead of "friend-zoning" him. It might feel unpleasant, but it's crucial to be clear. If he reacts negatively, well, there's your answer.

Yes, it was covered by health care. It's not common that early in life, but I think it makes sense to get it sorted out as soon as possible before it makes the issue worse. I have never thought much about it, but in hindsight I think it must have been hell for her to go through.

You can't really tell from looks alone. I went to school with a girl who got a breast reduction at age 16 due to back problems. It didn't look crazy or anything or maybe she hid it well, but it was just some issue she had that no one knew about or would have guessed.

Yes, I do it when I change strings, or whenever it gets too "dry". Just a few drops and then a wipe it with a cloth rag. I think it feels better than a clean dry fretboard.

I use a regular fine sewing machine oil. Haven't tried any of the brands specifically for guitars.

No, they don't.

It's either a weird coincidence or in perhaps that the fitness chains areusing the same plumber and that guy is doing a shit job.
