Ah, true, True.
But is not a disdain for the real world and the people who earn their own livings both a prerequisite AND a perquisite for all democrat politicians?
And all too many republican politicians....
I recall when I was just beginning my career, the use of “Life/Health/Dental insurances were perquisite to a good job. If they weren’t offered, you didn’t even talk with them. Now it’s dangling in the air.
A++ That’s because of Obama and his ilk. Why work for benefits, the dem party had made it’s fortunes on freebies.
Good morning ti. One of the perquisites of jogging the park in the morning is to see the deer out and about. Also one of my favorite dogs who stops his owner until he gets a pat from me.
Here is a program loaded with perquisites — puppy petter: http://www.washingtonpost.com/posttv/video/thefold/the-unlikely-ptsd-therapy-puppies/2013/08/08/8d5ed20a-006b-11e3-9a3e-916de805f65d_video.html?tid=ts_carousel
Heres one for you, What goes on when you are not there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AihvuZiDhsg
I know some people at the office who think that free coffee is a prerequisite perk of the company…
Our local constabulary sent a man to the Bahamas to question the owner. A month later he came back and said it must have some flat-lander what stolt the goods.
Whoever makes the best pizza deserves a prequisite:

Living in NYC, I’m spoiled — but shocked at the lower rating here.
Most people dont want flappy pizza. I like a good crust that is doughy and givea a good reheat out of the freezer.
Chicago is good but its not finger food.
The answer is neither thick nor thin, but that happy medium.
The wife and i had date night last night and saw “the Conjuring”.
It was really good and suspenseful. I actually let out an utterance at one point, which had never happened before.
Good haunted house/possession story. Based on true events.
Thats the scariest kind.
Ok, serious question here. If it is the law (and a good idea for safety) to have your headlights on when it is raining and i have “automatic” headlights, why don’t they turn on when i turn my wipers on?
No work today, damnit...
Obama wanted this nice job
For the perquisites included-
He thought it was a cakewalk
But then cold reality intruded
He found out that playing golf
And always going on vacation
Isn’t the performance expected
By one who is CEO of the nation
Now he’s off to Martha’s Vineyard
To golf and party some more
As the scandals and other trash
Are piling up at his office door...
Midget girl has a new game she is playing with Titus-sneaking to the window he is sitting in, swatting him then running across the kitchen to watch his reaction. As soon as he settles, she does it again, and keeps up until he chases her down and knocks her to the floor, holding her there, licking her face till she howls like some little victim and he lets go and walks away.
While she waited for him to settle again, Yeti boy ambled over and tried to get his big paws around her for a tackle, but she spat at him and took off-at least she has sense enough not to goad someone that big into a wrestling match. He plays with Titus, who is 13 pounds and likes rough play-he probably shouldn’t play with Midget girl-he is just too much bigger...
I agree - we got pizza yesterday from a place that reminds me the most of pizza we got in Pennsylvania, but the crust is just a bit too soft - I have to heat it in the oven to be able to pick it up!
You want enough dough on the edge to make a nice handle. One that you can crack open and scoop out the soft doughy goodness from if you want.
If a big bubble develops in this outer edge, even better.
When i make homemade pizza i like to use frozen bread dough as the crust.
Nice. A++
Awww.
LOL Can’t stand coffee, wouldn’t do it for me. A++
Pizza, pizza, pizza...A++
