a card-carrying Conservative...
I survived. We did fight over the check, but I let him win. After all, according to Conservatives, there's no such thing as a free lunch. But mine was. At least to me. -- Email sent to is never read. |

That's odd - when I lunch or fish with my card carrying lefty commie long haired pinko friends, they always pay - something about being obligated to them for a free lunch. :) Later, Tom S.

After the "free dinner", we had to sit in uncomfortable chairs for 2 hrs listening to lawyers explaining our liability insurance options to us. Lloyd |

My most expensive 'free breakfast' happened when I took one of the 'time
share' look sees in Orlando, Florida in '93. The rest of the morning our saleman worked us trying to sell a week in the development. Sure was glad to get out of there.

Heh....
I *just* did that while on my fall road trip to Fla to pick up some outboards and rebuild one on the fly. We had 2 days free to go to Disney. So we did the timeshare thing to get a couple of cheap two day Parkhoppers. We got the free breakfast too. At the end of the tour I multiplied the price of one week x 52 and got the "actual" price they were selling each condo for. It was like 1.5 million per condo! And since they did their own financing they netted more like 3 million per unit via "total of payments". Their "closer" didn't stay too long at all with me......... evil grin We were in Disney by 10am. Kinda hectic doing all 4 parks in 2 days. Did Magic Kingdom and Epcott on Day one. Day two we did the Animal Kingdom and Disney MGM studios. We hit all the good stuff though. -W "Don White" wrote in message ...

Heh, Heh...
![]() Back in the '70's when I was 17, I got a personal invitation in the mail to a time share scheme in Ocean Shores, WA. My friend and I drove down there from Seattle, enjoyed the free breakfast and bussed tour. When the salesman sat down to talk to us, I calmly explained I was only 17, and didn't have any money. *Boy* was he mad ![]() JR Clams Canino wrote: Heh....

Not to worry, though, 'cause he's used to it by now. |
