Where's the "President of the United States" card?

At Thu Jul 24, 09:46:00 AM, Randal Graves said...: They took that card out after the first print run. Too many complacency tricks, smotherings and insurance monies spent in the Caribbean.
At Thu Jul 24, 10:26:00 AM, Dean Wormer said...: Ah, but the card expansion pack included "CEO/ CFO," "Professional Athlete" and "Lesbian Biker."

You only give us half the picture.

At Thu Jul 24, 07:00:00 PM, Bradda said...: Where's Jedi knight lover?!?

"Hold me Ani, like you did back at Naboo..."

I remember wanting to be an architect when I was in 9th grade. I enrolled in a drafting class, was the only girl in the class, and the teacher made it so clear he did not want me in the class that I finally dropped out. Then I wanted to be a doctor, but it became clear to me that "nurse" was my only option. So, I became an international terrorist, instead.

Pissed Off Patricia: I could probably use some charm school. The "President of the United States" is not available in 1966. :o(

Übermilf: Ha! You are my kind of girl!

Randal Graves: Drat! Is that the reason?

Dean Wormer: I only report what I find. It's Katie Couric and CBS that do all of the creative editing!

ComicsAllTooReal's Chris: Ah, Batgirl and Supergirl. A pretty girl in a cape is like a melody!

Bradda: Geek kink! I like it.

ThoughtCriminal: Ack! Don't encourage them!

Madam Z: Ha! At least you found your niche in life!
At Fri Jul 25, 09:05:00 PM, Anonymous said...: Did I miss the secretary? The domestic?

Oh, I get it. Careers, not jobs. Yeah. Right.
At Mon Jul 28, 03:08:00 PM, dguzman said...: To continue DCup's questions--where are the "call girl" and "dominatrix" cards?
