jerryskids 5,215 Posted July 10, 2018 But Im supposed to know the exact mileage from my house to a bridge Ive driven over 12-15 times. I have no idea why somebody would lie about living in one Philly shiothole vs. another, so I'm inclined to give you the benefit of the doubt. Although tanatastic brought out his ruler, compass, and protractor and claimed that there was a 3 vs. 8 mile difference to the bridge, which seems like a sizable difference. Maybe you just suck at math and spatial relationships? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,716 Posted July 11, 2018 Or I dont go over that bridge? Its not like the Betsy Ross is the Times Square of Philadelphia bridges. Everyone refers to Temple Bar as the TS of Dublin. Clinging to nothing as usual. I've also been to France, where your people are from. Strange you've never been. You never seem to go anywhere outside of the Philly white trash metro area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted August 2, 2018 Last day on the beach in Cebu with my wife and folks. We did one of those dives with the old school diving helmets the other day. Wife was terrified. She cant swim. She ended up having a blast though. Yesterday went to another island, saw some sights. Back to Manila tomorrow. Parents fly home. We have some errands to run (us and Chinese embassies) will be there about a week. Will make day trips to Corregidor island and Bataan. I wanna see the wwii stuff. Head back to china on the 20th. Its been a good summer. Getting tired and will be ready to go home though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

penultimatestraw 473 Posted August 5, 2018 Arriving by plane in Denver, heading north to Rocky Mountain for about a day, then heading right down to Moab. IIRC you're kinda old, but if you have any inclination Moab is a Mecca for mountain biking - Porcupine Rim and Slick Rock trails in particular. Regardless, Arches NP is super cool, as is Zion on the way to AZ. And check out the slot canyons in Page (Antelope is the most famous). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You already have enough info anyway, if your internet detective skills were anywhere near as good as you think.I dont have enough info, Id need your last name. But then Im sure when I looked it up and found nothing across multiple references you would tell me how you are the one doctor who isnt listed anywhere online for reasons. Just a guess. Since I know your wife is also an alleged doctor, Ive taken the info I do have, cross referenced a list of possible names to see if any last names match. They dont, shocker...

Oh and convenient with the wife not sharing last name, red flag right there, having a convenient excuse for everything. Why not say where you went to med school? Is that some top secret info? Seems like casual chat to me. If nothing to hide, why not be forthcoming so I can get egg on my face faster and eat crow? If you were questioning something about me, Id simply provide you with proof and the convo would end. Instead we play this tee hee Ill never tell game.
