    Politically Correct speak
    "Undocumented".

    Since "Illegal Aliens" losing favor for "Undocumented Aliens", I'd like to take advantage too.

    I'm a drug dealer. Please do not refer to me as such; I prefer "Unlicensed Pharmacist".

    My brother in law is the computer guy for our local school system. No kidding, last year he got a call for a bug in a computer. Lo and behold it WAS a bug. It was a giant cockroach from the science room that had squeezed it's way into the floppy drive :p

    Haha, no. You are not automotivally challenged because you are Asian.

    Does that mean that you're 'Fashion challenged" and "housework deficient" as a male, Rick?

    Haha, I am Definitely fashion challenged! I wear bluejeans November to March and Cargo shorts April to October, and golf shirts (98% plain white) all year round.

    I own one pair of dress pants, one button down dress shirt and one jacket... for funerals and weddings.
