A Fortune in Kansas City: Gone



One of my various ex-girlfriends is now married to one of these high powered, local finance guys and rather than participating in immature gloating and asking how I taste . . .

Here's a bit of what I'm talking about:

    No worries.

    Just make sure she takes a shower.
