the mental agility of a soup spoon has me flummoxed Ali

yeppers, they better have some more than that for sure

go ahead INDY go near it

Well, Trish..... you know what an accommodating sort I am, can't lower my standards any more.... surely??!!

Something in the water perhaps...??!

Ive recently decided that continuously lowering my standards was continually bring me down to their level -so instead, Ive dicided, haha, to raise them every time I get a knock back or disappointment - Ill prob still end up alone at the end of the day but at least will have a good sense of self worth

No, I didn't mean I actually do..... I was being my usual facetious self.

In short, aside from the sex stuff, what turns you on about the opposite sex?

hello girls...

well for me ...it would hav to be an attractive man with nice shoes and a trim butt in a pair of slacks.. no jeans for me ...then again a man in uniform will do it every time ....

Uhhh...breathing? Check!

Says she can put up with me? Check!

Meet Mrs Hondo everyone!

Well, let's see. A women, yeh, that's a definite for me. About 54 years old. It would be good if she used to have kind of long hair but now wears it a little shorter. British would be good.(love the accent) Decent pool player but smart enough to let me win once in a while. Must have the ability to blow the froth off a few. It would be nice if she prefered big hulking yanks that didn't spell too well. Yeh, that's about it. Now what's the odds????????

no bollixing, or mind games would be a good start

Weird, same thing is happening to me. Not kidding!!

hahaha - oh Bobbie Bobbie Bobbie how on earth did you know that I can play pool or for that matter how good I am at blowing the froth off

Man, read the whole thread. Quick wit, hold a conversation. Kind, trim butt, sense of humor. ablility to show emotions, (head in hands) I'm so screwed. (Or not screwed I guess)

I didn't, just going though my check list.

Yeah - mind games and all that messin do my brain in - gimme good old honesty any day - if it hurts I'll get over it sooner than than I will a load of old lying codswallop

well......... there used to be a pool table in the cellar at the old house where the children grew up and round the walls were shelves with home brew in its various stages

Oddly enough. I brew most of my own too!!

OK. Just spent the last hour in the very pleasant company of De Mello, ( old videos), and it freaked me out a bit how much we thought alike on all the important ( to my way of thinking), issues........

A lot of my life philosophies would probably have some from the same or similar sources........

No wonder the pope thought he was a bad influence......

Thanks for the reference HJ. I don't feel so much of a freak now after all. It surprised me to find out that instead of mostly getting it wrong, I was actually mostly getting it right for a change.......

Yeah, that was kind of a turning point for me too - my priorities changed as I got older - I dont remember it happening but I actually did get older somewhere along the line - I used to go for such shallow types, the gift of the gab and glib comments were oh so much more important to me at 18 yrs old than they could possibly be now....

nowadays, the gift of the gab would mean that they can back up their statements with references and 'glib comments' would have to illustrate at least six months attention to the news from varied sources
