1. Because I'm the only one you've got right now
So you don't have much of a choice now do you?

3. You've got a point.
I'll trust you until I find someone to keep an eye on you...then someone to keep and eye on him...then someone to keep an eye on that person...etc...

6. So, if you're telling the truth, you're not trustworthy.
If you're lying, you're a trustworthy liar, which is an oxymoron.

Not trusting you seems to be the way to go.

4. Because, I've
never lied to you before, ever - never!

btw - a friend cut a CD for me from an original vinyl of Miles Ahead. No breaks (as I suspect you already know), just Miles et alia. 38:38 minutes.

Ohhhhh . . . think I'll play it right now.

And yes, I'll enjoy!

Some mornings I feel like I'm beginning to generate gravity.

11. There are degrees of trust though.
I trust that you will post another comment somewhere on DU at some point.

I don't trust you with my checking acct. and routing #.

Finding the point in between is the key.

Would you watch my beer at the bar while I go to the can without drinking it or spitting in it?

12. I can't trust your appraisement of the effects of villainy upon one's blood pressure.

Cheney seemed pretty uptight, what with the undisclosed bunker and all.

And, Tony Montana? Getthefuckouttahere...

13. Why would I care? I trust myself. Note that I don't mean that in a rude sense,
just as a genuine feeling.

14. Because everyone that knows me knows I'm true.
I am one of those dyed-in-the-wool true blue people. I love my friends.

18. Character references are always good to have...
...just in case you're ever framed by a one-armed drifter.

17. You shouldn't
I'm a complete stranger on an internet message board. If you trust me, you're an idiot. Of course, I am completely trustworthy but you don't know that. :hi:

20. Shoot... I was going to ask you to babysit my large Kroger bag of unmarked bills.
But, that would be idiotic of me. :hi:
