Does the government prescribe the salary for each specific job?

From each according to his ability, to each according to his need. Unless the women has less need, at which you pay her more.

03-thumbsup to that shite....

I told my ex-wife the following before we got married.....I play golf, fish, watch football whilst drinking beer, and do all the outside maintenance......don't **** with me 'inside' of waking me up to change the diaper....that indoor work I'll always have working with a smile w/o a closepin attached 03-wink

I think the kicker that 'sasquashed' that one was when she found the Cazadores under the wedding cake in the deep freeze a handful of yrs later.....maybe it was the subliminal unintentional intentional....

yep, I'm that twisted simple person....

life.....she's a silly birdie....sometimes the yips happen from a foot away....
