Whatever happen to privacy?

Whatever happen to privacy?

Well, this is a get to know topic

[Hj Ahmad Rasyid Hj Ismail]

Great to know you Jessica. Keep up all the good works!

[Kindred]

Do you drink Tequila?

[Suki]

Sure! it's on our genes and  its cheaper than most other alcoholic beverages   you ca get drunk with just 2 dollars 

[NHWD]

Mexico City? that's cool!
Never would have guessed I'd find another Mexican here.

[Kindred]

But MAS... I only drink Anejo Tequila.... (although, occasionally, I'll slum and accept Silver or Reposado)  Which, even in Mexico, I assume is more than that.

What is your favorite Tequila?

[Owdy]

Wow, you are beautiful.

[Suki]

I like Silver the most, I dont like that wood flavor in reposado and añejo, the fresher the better!

I couple of years ago I went to Tequila, the town and saw the whole process, it was cool.

Wow, you are beautiful.

Thanks   thats the most recent pic I got, it was from last Saturday.

[ѕησω]

Wow, you are beautiful.

Well then I understood the question wrong

 I do not spend all day drinking tequila    I only drink in reunions/parties and such.

Think we're extinct in smf, of course not.

 Mexico City, beautiful city where we live. 

Wow, you are beautiful.

Yes, my work is not particularly related to computers but I spend most of my work hours in a PC, as usual, all social networks are blocked so the only place I can go to relax is this 

[c23_Mike]
