    List of good forum topics: The original awkward dinner topics: Religion (7%). It's interesting that religion finished in last place because on a list of controversial topics because, ya know, people kill each other over it daily. But, apparently, once you put on a nice shirt and swing by a store to grab a bottle of not-the-cheapest wine, it significantly softens the blow on religion. Serious illness (9%). Apparently, if there's a lull in the conversation and you break it with, "So, anyone here got cancer?" you've got a 10 in 11 chance no one's gonna be offended. Politics (13%). Political discussions at dinner parties were certainly in the news this week. For everyone reading this in the future, I'm referencing the GREATEST SCANDAL OF ALL TIME (of this week) in the 2012 presidential election. Also, how is the future? What ended up happening on Breaking Bad? Value of homes (16%). I'm definitely guilty of this one. I don't understand how it can be off limits when I could find it out by Googling your address. Anything that easily Googleable can't be taboo. Is it also taboo to ask how many furlongs are in a hectare or how what year All-4-One released I Swear? Relationship details (18%). Having spent three years going to dinner parties and being asked within minutes "So when are you getting maaaaaried?" I can attest that no one cares whether or not this is taboo. Family planning (19%). I'm not sure if this means "So when are you having a baaaaaaby?" or "Is pulling out still working for you?" Either way, if you try to make this the conversation topic, the odds of it failing are about one-in-five. You could say it's the rhythm method of dinner party topics. Salary (25%). Three out of four people are totally fine with telling you how much money they make? That's way higher than I would've guessed. Time to start asking EVERYBODY. We're strapped for cash. State of finances (28%). I can't really see this coming up that often unless you get into a "Who's got the most debt" penis measuring contest. Although I guess the lowest number would win, unlike any real penis measuring contest. An infidelity (31%). There aren't many venues where it's wise to bring up someone's infidelity. Other than an appearance on Maury or Cheaters, a contentious divorce hearing, or you're 100 percent convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that you're the good guy and he's the bad guy in the romantic comedy of life and you're the one who should end up with Drew Barrymore. Sex life (32%). Is it that you don't want to discuss your most intimate details... or don't want to discuss other people's intimate details when you're eating salmon or beef tenderloin? Nothing is off limits (39%). Analingius it is.

    I once did 12 on 12 off for a whole year. Not a single day off except for two weeks about half way through. I came close to suiside.

    I spent over 3 hours at the DMV on Friday.  That was the closest I've come to suicide in recent memory.

    @Wolfpack that's clever

    @HDumptyEsq - no, I renewed my expired license and took the written for the motorcycle tag.  Have to take the road test in a week or so which means I need to find a legal bike - mine won't fly.  Or maybe I'll just get it legal.

    I'm ready to pull the trigger on that specific car, ramping up the search.

    Friend of mine was at the Vicari Auction Co. car auction today.  He missed my BBQ, but he did drop by to pay me a $20 he owed me and drop of the list of cars.  He called me and said, Hey man, there's a Ferrari 328 GTS - 88K miles.  Prolly get it for 25K.  I said thanks but no thanks.  I'm settled on what I want.

    I have just about drove the length of your State and will pass near Woodford (my drink as well) at some point today (spent night in Knoxville). Not sure if I want to take time for tour or just stop and pick up a bottle of the new stuff and keep going toward Bar Harbor.
