Thank you Gypsy, Biff and Miclee for the birthday greetings. I want to especially thank Mimi for letting the world of CS know how old I am. Almost ready for a dirt nap but not quite yet. After we're married Mimi has several trips planned for me so I'll just have to hang on or suffer her wrath. Let the adventures begin.
Bogart. You are absolutely right about baptismal names. My Mother named me after my Father, with his middle name being "Francis" for both my baptismal and what she thought was written on my birth certificate. I guess having so many kids (7) she didn't bother reading it as it wasn't there. I went my first 17 years of life thinking Francis was my middle name. I "hated" that name !!!! It was only after enlisting in the Marine Corps that it was brought to my attention. Not my fault as I had never seen my birth certificate up until then.
Geriatric - while I was concentrating on all the scenarios involving my knight to cause mischief and banking on black to make a mistake that I completely forgot the obvious. With me I realize that only by playing the same person a few times will I be able to understand his or her tendencies to trap him or her to where to move. I find it very hard to read anyone's tendencies and skill level on the first couple of sit-downs so I tend to play very boring and conventional. In any event congratulations. art
Jim - thanks again and your right "You snooze you lose." "Err" maybe next time you should ban Geriatic so as to give the rest of us mere mortals a chance. Lol.
Sorry Jim. I meant white Q to c8 check then everything falls into place. Will this work? I guess I'm getting too old as I used to be at least an average player, lol. When your not busy with your political stuff please do another one. Thank you. Art
mollybaby. "Mimi a 26 year old is closer to your age than Art is"
Actually Molly I'm really only 25 years old but I had to lie about my age to have a chance to get into Mimi's knickers!!!!!!! "Err" I look like this because I've been sick........
Odd couple (by Elegsabiff) "I met these people, and for all I know they met on CS although that would be a fantastic coincidence and, if they read this blog, a little embarrassing. So I shall say nice things. He is, I don't know, middle-aged,very fit and bronzed, good-looking"
"I couldn't read anything further. Your right Biff, it is embarrassing to hear so many nice things that you had to say about me but being the shy guy that I am - please stop it or Mimi might think that I'm getting a big head!!!!!!!!
Hi Catfoot. I'm still here. Because of the demands that Mimi put on me during my last visit, I needed to see a chiropractor but she suggested that at my age an archeologist might be cheaper.
By reading the responses I feel you women are sooooooo jaded and guarded to the notion that there just might be a truly nice guy on CS looking for love. That is why I always use a more subtle approach- "Lay down I think I love you." Mimi is so going to kill me!
Mimi sweetheart, As much as we Skype everyday I completely forgot about those bricks that they pass off as bread in Spain. What are the bakers thinking? Surely even you could do better than that :roll "Now" this question is for Biff - I love lots of coffee in the morning especially while enjoying the beautiful scenery of Spain - But what's up with the tiny hole for your finger to hold the cup?????
Biff, May looking for Christmas? Hummmmm, I feel like such a fool. I really thought Mimi was in love with my "MOOBS." Now what???? "Oh" those Asian women and their "wiley" ways!!!!!!!
Molly & Viking in my case Your both right. At different times in my life I expierenced that emotional roller coaster of love at first sight. So many bittersweet moments that run through ones heart and soul. I would not trade those moments for anything as I think that's what makes us human. On the other hand, Molly is spot on! "But" If a relationship develops over time and the things you learn and share with one another could ultimately develope into a much deeper kind of love (in my case when it came to Mimi.) I again would not trade this for anything.
Biff, "No worries." Knowing my Mimi would luv being chased just to make me jealous and also being aware that Catfoot is younger and probably faster than me I have therefore decided that the best course of action would be for me to follow " Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater" I would " hide her in a pumpkin shell and keep her very well."
Hello Catfoot, After reading your blog about the "sue happy Americans", an idea popped into my head. After Mimi and I are married I want you to come for a visit. When you arrive I'd like to slap You with a lawsuit for "alienation of affection." as Mimi seems to really enjoy bantering with you and seemed somewhat dispondant when you were gone for awhile. It could be a win-win proposition!!! I'll get rich and it will prove you right. "Only in America" Lol, I like you stay safe.
Molly You don't give Mimi with her "wily" ways enough credit as she would wait until the ink is dry on our marriage license and locked into my insurance first. ??
Thank you Dr. Map. I will be visiting my Mimi for 2 months starting next March and you've convinced me on the powers of peanut butter and maple syrup so my question is this - do you feel that I can last the entire 2 months on peanut butter served with maple syrup alone? Please say yes???????????
Annanda I hope you find whom your looking for here. I can honestly tell you that I have met the most wonderful girl in the world on CS. Her name is Mimi and I feel so very fortunate.
I read your comments with a great deal of interest and it gave me pause into other angles of the gun issue. I went back and read your profile and would like to give you some advice. Don't give up finding your true love. I'm older than you and I found the girl of my dreams on this site and we will be married next year. Also with your heart problems "please put that shovel down" I find the world a nicer place with people like you sharing it. Good luck
