    Kia Soul: End-of-lease review

    Good write-up. Got a 2013 a few months ago. Nice car. Went on a road trip with it. Could put more luggage in it with the back seats up than I thought I could for such a short car. That boxy shape helps a lot for that

    Telephone job interview

    Just had a telephone interview for a job today. At the end of conversation, she said they will go over the responses and contact me if I get selected to next round. Does that really mean I did shit and should forget about my chances? Usually I get offered an in-person interview at the same time.

    Poll: Which version of Mad World do you prefer?

    Mad World- Tears for Fears version Mad World- Gary Jules version I know, I am about 15 years too late with this poll, but oh well. I loved the original, but the Jules version seems to fit the emotions of the song better.

    Married guys- did you get more sex when you were single?

    My average now seems to be once a month. Yep, once a month. With a tired wife (taking care of 2 young kids), long hours at work, few days off, thats where its at now. I remember at one point when I was single, it averaged out more than once a week. The good old days.........

    Does anyone here not have any friends?

    I find after I got married and now two kids, there basically is no time for real friends. After work, spending time with the wife and kids, I find my desire for social time with other people to be at zero. Now, I wasnt a social butterfly before marriage, but I did have a few close friends. The...
