^^ burn ^^ haha

Okay, the secret

to a delicious baked 'fried' chicken is to use panko bread crumbs and crushed up french fried onions to coat it with.  It's crispy and yummy!

Nope!  Maybe some pepper.  But beware of the salt, because the french friend onions are pretty salty all on their own.

I feel like that was a good secret.

@ Alien: Make it two bucks an inch, you'll get your three dollars then. Maybe you would like to also put out their that I'm still a virgin too?

Alien, I am a virgin. Just ask my ex-wife. Don't ever be nice for me. The meaner the better. It makes life interesting. I'll let you know if you cross the double yellow line.

Alien you are rookie status compared to the hell I've been through. But no, I'm not like Tebow. I think I've been with maybe two or three women. The rest were girls.

Maturity, Danny, I'm taking about their mental maturity. All were of age. At least I think so. I was never told otherwise. I don't even want to think about stuff like that. 

I don't know why I wrote that, but I refuse to delete it. I know you got what I was talking about. This is why people shouldn't write at 3 in the morning. You just aren't mentally right.

???  That's the secret you built up?  I don't believe you.  I think you had a secret you kinda wanted to share, but at the last second you chickened out and came up with this instead.

You totally owe me.

Hmmm.

Well, to be fair, I'm a grown up.  I don't have that many actual secrets. 

 

So, I need to offer something less ambiguous I guess.

Aww.  Don't kick anything.  Surely I have a secret.  I just can't think of one that would be entertaining to a mass audience. 

*winks in appeasement* 

I got fired from a job once!  I don't tell that very often.  Is that one good?

I seriously googled "Cooking secrets" as soon as I saw the secret and I was sure that it was going to be in the top 5.

I've been fired... 3 times (and the first time was for STEALING! Money even! I don't steal! I had plenty of money! (I was working 2 jobs at the time, but the other one was a very laid back sort of job and I spent most of that money... recreationally) They said they had video cameras and that they could prove who really did it, but they still took the excuse to fire every driver working that night.). But that information can be obtained through other channels. I don't think employment history is much of a secret.

If you had been really clever the secret would have been "sometimes you can engineer an unequal exchange by promising to tell secrets you don't have."

I just asked my best friend what my secrets were (she keeps better track than I do).  She listed a few - none of which I am really willing to tell you people.  Apparently, I do have secrets!!

OKay, what else do I have to barter with online? 

I'll tell you my shoe size.  That's pretty shocking.

Hah!!!  That would be giving away HER secret!  I can't do that. 

I did email her I was digging a "secret hole" and I swear I heard her laugh from one county over.

No, no.  I'm sure it's fine.

But seriously, I have to quit using that phrase. 

I have to admit - everyone has been very polite about this.  Good job, men.  Should I just start telling other people's secrets?  I know lots of those.

Wait a minute?  What am I doing this for?

I'm not scared of girls. I'm scared I will not find one that I can live my life with. I don't know which is worse, being alone or being in a relationship without a real connection you feel deep down in your gut. I think being in an emtionless relationship. I can tolerate myself.
