Obviously, the roots of money go a shade deeper than simple bartering.
What'll you give me for a toe curling BJ ??

Cab fare?
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

My finest car is a 20 year old Honda Accord. I have an android phone which I prefer and one dog which is plenty. But I might trade the car for more exotic meat (duck, deer, elk (especially elk), goose, lamb) if you have enough of it; or 6 or 7 months of apartment rental in key European destinations.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Would you be willing to include war ravaged regions of s. eastern Europe.......? Because I can totally hook you up - but you're going to want to get fitted for some cast iron panties and spend a little time at the range with a rifle in the general vicinity of 7.62.....
(...not a building standing within miles to block the wonderful view of mountains which double as mass graves...total bonus for the history buff in you......)
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Nope. If cotton panties won't be good enough, the location won't be. Needn't be Paris, Venice, London, Amsterdam, or Rome. The suburbs of those or rural Tuscany, Lake Como, the Italian Riviera, Yorkshire, coastal Spain, Provence, Basque country, small Greek islands, Cornwall, on the Rhine, in the Alps, etc. would all do just fine as would many other PEACEFUL places. Come to think of it, six months in a number of places in the U.S. Southwest would be fine too. I have travel on the brain.
