9/10/07 The Byzantine Empire

This past Saturday was a real big day. My parents had a giant party at their place for the Republic of Macedonia's independence day. (From this point forward, all names will be kept confidential to protect the innocent). At this party, my 15 year old female cousin was discussing her Saturday night plans. Those of us who were much, much older were, how shall we say, impressed with her social life. Her father asked her "Hypothetically, how much would it take, in today's dollars, for you to cancel your plans for the evening and spend it with us?" She replied, "I wouldn't cancel my plans for anything." To which he said, "Everyone has a price. What's your price?" She thought for a minute and finally said, "$100,000". So there you have it. My cousins and I are so much fun that we'd have to pay $100,000 for our younger, more hip cousin to spend an evening with us.

On that note, apparently someone wrote an article about one of us. Loser Friend Sort Of Doing Better.
