There are some people who expect you to drop everything for them when they ask for a favor but they won't do the same when you ask them to do something for you in return.

What for?

Guy pal tells me, "it's easy to find someone for hire, but not someone for keeps."

When all else fails, there's always Orlistat and/or liposuction ;)

dimwit
