hey, if a "gainfully" employed person cannot afford to go out on a date and spend 15 bucks for refreshments at the movies, something is wrong.

as for me being a "rich woman" and spending frivously, come to our house next time you're in town. it would be like a trip through a history muesum for you...complete with rabbit ears on the television, a 30 year old refrigerator, a newly repaired (20 year old) washer, and no microwave. i think you'd get a real bang out of it! :)
