    upon Judy's instruction I'll amend my maids contract to include:

    - provide adequate fire prevention alert services in the unfortuante event of an outbreak of domestic fire.

    of course i'll compensate her with the additonal savings recouped from non-purchase of fire detectors!!!

    Having read some other posts, I don't think she's real - just someone trying to get a reaction

    I want to move in with her. I am excellent at detecting smoke.
