What is your biggest vice?

The Era -- Day By Day
This dovetails my personal theory on why the Irish are the real lost tribe of Israel. Moses was the first guy to break all Ten Commandments. AND, he did it all at once. ...only an Irishman could do that. Period, end of discussion. :D- Harp

Please allow assurances that my admiration for this Tuscan beauty is chaste and pure as driven snow. Whatever pneumatic somatic issues which may exist are ancillary and quite irrelevant to her innate charm, wit, and overall abundant sweetness.- Harp

So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.
Inspector Morse drove his own Burgundy Mark II Jaguar which brought in 100,000 British lbs sterling on Ebay; once trolled EbayMotors for a Jag, refined search to high end dealers not likely to accept trade in junk.
