His left hand probably doesn't know what the right is doing. At his age that's probably easily explained by early senility.

You're just jealous because you're not ambidextrous, which would double your dating pool.

Now when I travel back east, I wonder what's wrong with everyone else.
I know exactly what you mean. I grew up in Austin, was schooled in Austin, and came to DC (for work). Its incredible how different it is up here. Being polite is the exception. When I say "thank you," people look at me funny. Its great when you are polite to opposing counsel and they just fidget. In some cases, you gain a psychological edge on opposing counsel playing the good ol' boy. "Mister" and "Ms." really pisses people off. It seems to me that anyone in a service industry up here (and I am), especailly retail or food service would make quite a mark and keep them coming back if it required its staff to smile and be polite.

In any case enjoy the music, Barton's, Threadgill's, Dirty's, Amy's Fredericksburg, Hamilton's Pool, the Country Line, and the best Tex Mex anywhere.

While quite possibly true, the problem here was my painfully throbbing tendon on my mouse hand (which, probably not coincidentally, is my favored self-lovin hand) from scrolling through the same fucking post one millyun times as it is requoted and requoted and requoted only to be followed by what someone no doubt thinks is a pithy one-liner, but is in fact just a waste of pixels and bandwidth.

I understand that you, as the Lamest Poster of Them All, may take offense at this, but the Truth needs to be spaked. Thurgreed has tried before re the sixth lamest poster of all time, but the Word has apparently not filtered down to the teeming unwashed masses. The mortal sin of requoting lengthy posts just to make a stupid response is akin to the "LOL" or the "Check your e-mail" in the pantheon of crimes that will be weighed by St Peter or Satan or whomever the Mormons use to pick your level of heaven, probably Steve Young, since even the elders admit that Brigham Young was a wrong-headed bastard of a bigot.

You have been warned.

Third: Your second point missed the point. I was merely responding to what's-his-name when he said that there was no difference between a $2000 system and a $10000 system and if person wants to spend $10000 on an amp and it doesn't mean waiving child-support payments, then what the fuck do you care? People spend money on dumber shit than that (homerun baseballs, ugly art). Get off your horse and maybe sit a listen to a $10000 amp - or maybe you're just not a music lover - then that's ok - spend your money on bonds and shut up.
Actually, you were responding to your mischaracterization of my original statement, but that's okay.

My original point had been that there are male (or stereotypically male) things that can be purchased that are equivalent to big money diamonds: that at some point, while you can tell the difference in quality and expense if you try, most people don't bother to try.

I was also trying to pump SD for more details on how much he blew - uh, I mean spent on his beloved's rock by drawing his attention to the fact that his assertion that he could never spend more on a stereo might be false (unless, of course, he bought a Bennifer / Kobe class ring, in which case, congrats Mrs. D).

Well, that wasn't my intent -- admittedly, though, I did miss a chance. I was more focused on the concept of less (less) and more (lame) than on the words themselves.

Anyhoo, there might not be mystery, but judging by Less's response, there is confusion. Or maybe not.

Concur. However, because it's Friday:

A buddy of mine works for one of the oil companies and therefore travels periodically to Houston. He keeps pestering me about seeking patent protection for a wonderful invention he's thought of, which he calls a "pool cooler."

Though sadly sketchy on the details to his invention, he has observed that of the backyard pools in Houston (of which there are apparently many), the summer days are so hot and so long that the pool water becomes -- well -- warm as bathwater. He is convinced that finding a solution which keeps a poolfull of water cold, or at least pleasurably cool, in Houston alone will make him fabulously wealthy.

He has rejected my suggestion of simply opening an ice company and making about 1/4 poolfull ice deposits on a weekly basis.

Gatti(e/o et al, perhaps I can come visit in the fall. The late fall)gap

Quite. But I have discovered the solution, which I will share for free with the rest of you to serve the greater happiness of the world, because no one (around here at least) apperars to be following my suggestion to Blow Me For America. To wit, one opens up several windows of good, salacious mega-kilobyte pics and, then, one alt-tabs among them with the left hand while assuaging one's biologic cravings with the right. It is a delicate ballet that takes time to master (heh, heh), but the reward is worth it - a sticky mess hopefully aimed well onto the (previously placed and arranged) strip of toilet paper runway that runs from the base of the shaft to under the chin.

As I've said before, you should kiss Leagl for starting this site. (So long as you don't point that thing at her, you should be fine).

From Slate's "Dear Prudie" -- I figure the guy may post here, so...

Quote:

Dear Prudence,
My husband received an e-mail at our home e-mail address from an online dating service. I did a little snooping and found that my husband actually had a profile with a lot of personal information on it, including his job and his salary. His password was even the name of our dog. I confronted him about it, and he denied ever having anything to do with it. He said he had never heard of this site and never filled out a profile. When I asked him how they got all of this information, he said he didn't know and thought perhaps it was someone playing a joke. He even went as far as to name a few individuals who may have done this. The only problem is that these people would have no idea how much he makes or any of the other personal information. And they would have no reason to do this to him or to me. I'm still very upset about it. The profile indicated that he was interested in a physical relationship/fling, but our sex life is great. What do I do?

—Extremely Uneasy

Dear Ex,
Agreed, this does not look good for your husband. The dog's name as a password … maybe … but the salary and other personal information is unlikely to be known by friends. And this would be a prank very different in spirit from receiving a pizza you did not order. For whatever it's worth, you aren't the only one dealing with this situation. In your case, however, because you say your sex life is good and your husband has denied, denied, denied being on a cybersearch for sex, assume that your discussion has served as a warning, and continue as if nothing has happened. Until something does.

—Prudie, vigilantly

Oh, I don't know, little boys are cute and charming. Actually men are cute and charming. Of course, if I dated men, I probably wouldn't find them cute and charming.

Go figure.

This is probably the solution to the male female problem we have in our society. Straight men and lesbians should date. And gay men and straight women should date. I think I have just discovered the reason for homosexuality, and it is this.

God loves a good practical joke.

See there, Gigli is just ahead of its time. A brilliant piece of movie making no one can truly understand.

100 years from now, people will rave about how wonderful it was and how foolish we people in the early 21st century were.

And now I get to respond to the much earlier discussion of bad dating experiences.

I tried this, repeatedly, in college. Doesn't work. Gets very frustrating. And the possible permutations of envy/jealousness/disappointment etc. when eyes wander can create surreal situations.

But she really does have a hell of a sense of humor, doesn't she?

Leagl is lying. I had just met with my South American Reptile Import Specialist and had a fresh vat of Bufo toads. We were licking toads like there was no tomorrow, one right after the other. We were trippin' serious balls, as was fellow toadlicker Roger Ebert, who writes of Gigli:

It is so rare to find dialogue of such originality and wit, so well written, that even though we know the exchange basically involves actors showing off, they do it so well, we let them.

http://www.suntimes.com/output/ebert...-gigli01f.html

Bufo toads or no, there's some heavy shit goin' down in Gigli. Bull, cow.
