Heh. I had that happen once - right after I dumped my ex-wife. I knew I needed a slump-buster and I lowered my standards. Little did I know. I let her in the front door. Heh. I laughed hysterically afterwards -every time. She thought I was psycho. Maybe I was. Turns out she made a lot of money during the .com boom. I should have sent her a bill for services rendered.

Yeah,
that bill would probably get a call from accounting.
Earl: Hey bonnie I got a bill from a guy named phil for a $5000
Bonnie: for what?
Earl: Don't know really, did you go on safari
Bonnie:No I flew around a little bit had some mid summers romances, why?
Earl:Says $5000 for riding a hippo
Bonnie:oh that phil.... [Reply]

Risin up

had the guts got the glory
went the distance now I'm not gonna stop
just a man and his will to **** something
It's the eye of the tiger

risin up to the challenge of our rivals
and the last known virgin stalks his prey in the night
and he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger......
The eye of the tiger......

Heh heh. Awesome. This gal wasn't obese or anything - she was just thick. She rode mountain bikes in their natural habitat. She had calves bigger than mine and that's saying something. She wasn't attractive at all. She wasn't ugly but I wasn't attracted to her whatsoever. [Reply]
Did you really spend 3/4 of a conversation talking to a girl about Bobby Bell? :-) Especially when she has no idea who he is and doesn't really care? :-) [Reply]

Try not to start off talking about you. You can segway into it later, but, especially since she's not into it, make it a brief explanation.
Pretty much every conversation has been all about him. That's a big no no. It makes sense because he doesn't know any better and since people like talking about themselves, which is exactly why you need to get the girl to talk about herself. Once she's into you she'll be asking you non-stop questions. Believe me. [Reply]
