what is why i started writing the column i hated that a few of the things i've written in the kick me out the house he said i go get some way to read these and don't come back until you do and then he edits a column before goes to the syndicate and oftentimes he he thinks of sweeney is someone else and they'll say that's what you would know and we knew pretty early on a good news is real name and so we came up with three that's what i call a minimal and goodness why was really is that what you call him in real life had three we do but it was the dishes as nicely is one of the things that i've added call and then that the ones would stack them that look at

camp the attic that these are real life character you translate into my first named personalities in your column i use them with regularity and the cat has trouble periodically with men all what i'm not at the one another you don't like cats might like at the woman as that yes he is he this woman will never settle down she has of him pick out every man is attracted to that and due date younger man and she dates motorcycle or a never know what she's going to show up where that your house and she just leaves this this there's a trail of broken boy toy review your columns if you read of our men i'm army you know indeed she does she does have flirtation all sorts of male birth and now how much of her experiences are real life experiences

is the accent that i let the difficulty that the guards having with the nurture bush and it didn't end well they use their device in the first paragraph to make the point that which you quote a column and the but at that point you're talking about it talking about something totally different but you're close it with blind man i love the nurture bush and now talking about that device recruits because that guards common sense pfeffer says the column up for the punchline and believe i read as funny but is

not nearly as funny or not nearly as serious the newly it's it's also funny and profound to funnel on talk about that device and wow i didn't i'd never thought of myself as profound you're so charming you make the growth of the meltdown is not an additive that those will win it all but all over the lives you're uber she's you know approval and i mean i want people who are different i want people that love the unique people either the ones he just added something new people are threatened by the uniqueness where if that's the thing i've really go for that person and of this particular guard sounded like andre codrescu you know and then i knew exactly what he was saying from the beginning in egypt and to the roots i guess of how when you when someone how you sort of
