PDA check, Job Hunt check, Step towards getting organized ...... Pending

Where do I begin to tell a story of how greater life can be, a story of where life begins at eight thirty.

Sigmond has a father (no really he does), and Sigmonds father who has for most been a down to earth man gives him a PDA that's worth more than all of Sigmonds guitars put together. Besides the fact that Picasso would find this more bizarre than the screaming man ... The situation really gets me thinking about the subtle hints and reactions behind harmless handouts. So here are a few that this frigid mind could think off in the wee hours of a Monday.

1)Expensive PDA - (hint) Transcends to get a job that eventually pays that much ... or else hawk the damn thing and scrape a living either way son you aint on the wishlist anymore. (Note to self - erase underpressure and another one bites the dust from daily playlist) . (Reaction)Wooo hoo now this is what im talking about (completely oblivious of the fact that I am a jobless graduate)

2)Music Cd that come in twos - a)(Reaction) What the hell did you do now .. wheres my cat? (you silently wipe the dirt off your hands and clean the rear wheels of your ride). b) (Reaction)Im sorry but the toll gate to my pants have a cut off at three cds (you think to yourself wtf!!... and refrain from asking the conversion rate to dvds) c) (Hint) I know that some special day is on the horizon and the cds were on sale, so putting two and three together the eventual 2 cd gift is a gift for someone as well as your wallet.

3)Expensive birthday gift - (hint) Buddy the rules of gift poker state that you either match the gift or better it (Its a commonly used ploy but can be quickly be used as an expectation burn where the gift bearer expects but then ends up with a loaf of bread). (Reaction) Now that's what im talking about (do a quick mental calculation of how close the persons birthday is and then depreciate value and invariably it is almost as expensive as a loaf of bread ... Depreciation rates are subjective to time and cost).

4)Man G strings - (Hint) I read it in cosmo and our sex life is at an all time low. (Reaction) Wtf, (quick images of drag queens flash before your eyes) Thanks I think (Priscilla Priscilla ! No no Carmen Electra, Angelina Joli!) We need to talk ( Thinking of the best exit strategy... the main door, email, phone or airticket to Uzbekistan?).

5) A good book -(Hint) Your boring and you need to buck up the reading for conversation sake really im tired of fashion and gossip and the bachelor. (Reaction) Dribble ! Hold it upside down! and act as stupid as possible (if you are smart) act naturally (if you are not) and then start reading during alone time with person to make them regret the choice. Also point out the utter excitement and happiness you find in videogames (If this doesn't work ... jetstar asia has budget tickets to the former USSR)

So the next time someone gives you a gift or a handout, think about the consequences very closely... never do the following

a)Not accept the gift (Re-use Re-use Re-use)
b)Tear the gift wrapping in any way (Re-use Re-use Re-use ... it also helps save the environment if you Re-use)
c)Try it on for size instantly (First you dont want the person to see that the choice was an obvious mismatch and second of all its too much effort, save it for when you really have the time)
d)Hint that you have something of greater or equal value in mind as a return gift (The mind is fickle and trust me at the end of the day there is a lot of beer and smokes that money can buy).

Keep these in mind and happy accepting and an even happier giving
