I love to read. i will read just about anything lying around. Old newspapers, throwaway articles from the freebie newsstands, old magazines and on and on.

But my true passion is reading books from the library. During my time away from work or where I have no job I will go to the library and read. i have books when I go home that I have checked out. And that is where this story leads to.I have lately begun reading Ray Bradbury books. "Fahrenheit 451", I just finished "Something Evil Comes This Way" and now I am into "The Illustrated Man".

But let's get back to "Something Evil This Way Comes"! This book has a paragraph on love that perhaps is the solution for a man to finding the right woman. The scene takes place in the library where the protagonists are escaping bad guys from a horror carnival. They are Jim and Will, 2 kids, and will's Dad, Charles Holloway. As Will asks his father, and by Will's admission there was a puzzling relationship between these 2, why he married his mother. Charles Holloway answers:

In part, because I didn't mark this area off and I lost the whole monologue because I forgot to, Mr. Holloway describes his wife; ".....your mother has a wonderful set of eyes. I look at her eyes and I see that she see's love, and care for us (I am making part of this up because as I said I forgot the exact place in the book where it lies but you get the idea of his answer to Will) and I love her eyes. I see her nose and she (again I am making this part up) has a wonderful that smells the right things in life. I love her nose! Charles Holloway goes on with more love for his wife and what she has done for him and Will. Again, using parts of her body that may or may not look "good" but Mrs. Holloway was a woman that portrayed herself with what she had in a good way.

My point is, maybe men should look more at what he really likes about a certain women and really think about it. Does it fit into his way of looking at love and at her and not merely for s*xual pleasure.? I see many men walking with women they are in love with that are obese and not too many years ago men wanted the "hot looking" woman. I know what these men see in their obese companions. Eyes and noses that made him think she was the right one.

Everyone has special features about them. And I think we men should look deeper into a woman for them.

All credit and thanks goes to Ray Bradbury for this inspiring description on women!!

Had an old computer that provided service for years, new one with better protected Windows 10. But what to do with the old Windows 7 machine? Took it completely apart, just to see the innards. Have modified amateur radio transceivers, to make them cover Marine SSB, usually by cutting a diode. But I thought these radio circuit boards were complicated. Computers are amazingly complex by ANY comparison, and the driver was tiny. Did this while tending to yard sale customers. Then trip to recycling center (vernacular is town dump). My grass mower is in terminal state, and even I don't want to fix it. Beautiful FWD 6 HP mulching mower left by some (?rich) person. Oil change, spark plug regap, and fired right up. Amazing what folks throw away. Never bought a bike for our twins over the years. Minor repair work to dump "rejects", and girls always had new bikes. When outgrown, return for others to dump, and got larger ones to last another few years. later today, after yard sale, placing twin timing belts onto old Honda GL 1100 Gold Wing. May also need new solenoid relay. then, VROOOOOM once more. Also slowly taking down large trees endangering our little house. Now then, there's much more, but let's see if not only men respond to this typical guy stuff. Any handy ladies? Aa..

Don`t get me wrong , after many falls and disappointments some would give up and accept the fall ...not me tho ...
So yeah, Im on a dating site, Im not talking here about CS only,Im talking in general, any dating site or social network which provides such an option that states - Im single ,looking for -(truth to be told there should be more option in such cases, like, Im a prostitute, slut,gold digger,womanizer ,cheater ,wanker) nevertheless

Is it weird if you start a chat with Hi How`s life treating you so far , any luck?

They can do heaps of stuff- unlock my car, unlock my front door, open and shut the gates at work, even open my post office box to see what mail I've got.

Does one need to write more here to see what all think or believe or claim or confess or wish or admit or desire or miss or.........Aa.

Now, is that true? I think I must have been laying them wrong. Or perhaps I didn’t get the best quality in the first place. I do find after a few years they look a bit worn.

But is 30 years the aim, anyway? What if you want a change after, say, 10 years? Then half that hard work initially was for nothing.

I need more advice, I think. Anyone?

The lesson repeats itself, if one listens and watches oneself carefully. After all, our God, she gave us two ears and one mouth. Who thinks it's to talk twice as much as we listen? So, waiting for my endless cup of large coffee, and the guy in front of me in line is flirting endlessly with the hottie at the counter. Anger rising---worse for us addicts. But I practice the serenity prayer, and he FINALY moves over. As a younger man, there would certainly be words. Only good for improving fighting skills, usually by getting the shiite kicked out of me in some parking lot.. So, peebles. My turn. Immediatelly, I begin the shuck and jive with the heavy flirt. She graciously plays along, but I sense a tad bit of discomfort in her overall gestalt. Methinks, "Could there possibly be someone behind me, also thinking how nice the world would be if this a--hole would just pay up and move over?" Sure enough, there is. I beging to apologize, and the fellow is a regular Prince about it. I tell him this story, and he says "No worries, matie---it's how to prevent all wars---start small". Blew me away. Like the first time I read the Buddhist riddle about the Monk, disciples and woman with child at the stream. Aa.

We've all been asked this, and most have made the same request to others for major decisions. Of course, it also works as deception/avoidance. But what is it about sleep and sometimes figuring things out? I sometimes ask the I Ching, with rare misadvice, usually my fault in framing the Q or interpreting the A. But answers do come, sometimes in reverie. Look up all that Shakespeare said about sleep. He really had his shiite in one sock. Aa.

Hello everybody. I know that my english it's not perfect, infact I am italian, and I live in Italy, but I know the basic english. Today someone have sent me a mail with that message "You have problems with your english, sorry". I think probabily this is a way to wash hands up to reject my proposal in communicating. For you, what is important here? The knowledge and mastery in language or know the feeling of a person ?

Creating an Interesting Profile I have just recently joined this dating site and I have noticed that with each person, there is a different style of profile. Some are lacking in information, some give too much; so how do you reach a happy medium and give enough information to interest the person you are hoping to find. Certainly a lack of information, will give poor results in my minds eye. Internet dating is time consuming and time is valuable to us all. The traffic on a dating site can be crazy and patience is a virtue to be sure. On the whole, I think this is a very decent site, but it seems that nobody reads a profile properly, Think of the time it would save if they did
