I don't think I've ever met a girl named Jamie who is not attractive.

If I called Jamie Oliver a girl, would you be conflicted?  :P

I have, but I agree, Jamie is usually a hot chick name.

For me, the name where I've never known a ugly girl named it would be Heather.

Apparently the most popular Playmobil character is Martin Luther, of the 95 Theses fame.

I always appreciated Playmobil's approach with its distinctly "European" sensibilities:  play sets of conquistadors and Indian-fighting US cavalry would never have made the cut with a major American toy manufacturer the last 25 years.

When I was in school I knew a set of triplets. Two guys who were identical and a girl.
One of the guys was fairly average, slightly built but not particularly unusual.
The other guy was pretty effeminate. There was never any confirmation whilst I knew him but I'm sure he was gay.
The girl was a total beast. Always getting into fights, drinking, etc...The joke was that her brother (the effeminette one of course) was prettier than her.
His name was of course Jamie.

They had some really cool Roman sets that had me sorely tempted.

Oh, and they catered to the Lettow demographic, too:

Enjoy the return of subprime lending everybody.

Except in housing. The fuckers actually might have learned their lesson there. For now.

Housing market or not, get ready for Round 2.

We've gone from a consumer-based economy--which was shitty enough--to a debt servicing-based economy.

I was watching one of the commercials for one of the car lots and they said if you have credit of over 400 and earn 1200 a month, they wouldn't turn you down.

I thought that was a future car repo.
