I have posted the details of an experiment which I intend to carry out on an unsuspecting innocent here in the banter section, to keep the details private. Can anyone comment on whether it is improper in any way?

Thanks

You can spend your own $100 however you want. Maybe you want to give her The Fountainhead first? Or both at the same time. Hell, the thrill of giving the beautiful woman, and the chance that she might like the books make make it all worthwhile to you. Live a little.

If you said you were giving $100 to a street bum who was begging for money for booz/drugs and yelling "Fuck you" and "Hilary for president"... then I might say that was immoral/unethical.

I did once give a bum $5 when he said he wanted it to "cop a nickle bag." He made me laugh and I still laugh today, fifteen years later. I also tipped a guy playing guitar in the subway $50. He played and sang Pink Floyd's "Fearless," GnR's "Patience," and Zep's "Battle of Evermore" in full before my train arrived.

As for my experiment, I didn't want to comment on the public board, I'll respond on the Banter link.

Brede,

Move to the city, especially the coasts, and you will certainly find plenty of options.
