he's got pointy vulcan ears. Even I'm sexier than this guy.

No. He's just not that good looking. And he's wearing makeup.

I think the bigger question is why she keeps telling you about all the men who hit on her.

Rephrase that to "all the (conceivably) hot men who hit on her."

I said, "a beautiful woman like you should have more than one seeing eye dog."

Does "ho" mean "too good-looking for your ass"? If so, then she is a hidey-hidey-hidey-ho, as Cab Calloway used to sing.

Wait a second. You've met her. Does she look like a ho?

(And I'd appreciate it if you told me what line you used on her.)

The scary thing about these stories is the fact that you know she ain't telling you about all of the "hey, special lay-dee!" lines she has heard.

I mean, since you live in NYC, you gotta figure that dudes ranging from Ed Burns to Bill Clinton to Mike Piazza have tried out their mojo on her.

Personally, I'm impressed that she withstood the Aussie accent. Mrs. NB would be halfway to Sydney with the guy by now.

Keep in mind the cut-off line is TM, so it's a more inclusive list than you might think.

Because I tell her to. It goes both ways (even if the ratio of her stories to mine is like 10:1).

Interesting. Although given your smooth lines (see above), whenever you're around, I change those lyrics to "hidey-hidey-hide-the-ho."

Can you believe that shit? Fucker.

But get this: She said, "No thanks." Then, when I found his photo and told her that he was very good looking, she told me that she thought I was better looking. Lying bitch.* Should I dump her?

TM

* She also said, "His teeth were kinda brown and he doesn't have great skin."
Well, do you have great teeth? If not, dump the lying bitch, he's got her bent over the arm of the sofa in a room at the Plaza as we speak.

The Plaza? Is that where you insist on going when a guy with great teeth bends you over the arm of a sofa?

Anytime someone mentions the Plaza I am reminded of an old commercial where a well-coiffed woman walks out of a shop, tightens the belt of her fur around her waist, and struts down he street like Thurgreed just bent her over the arm of a sofa. The voice over says "Some women lunch at the Plaza, ski in St. Moritz, and buy expensive furs every year. Other women just look that way."

Why do I remember this crap?

(And TM, I think Wonk might prefer "226-0840, the Poconos Garden Lodge . . .")

He's so persistent that she gets exhausted and just gives up and continues to date him? After she stops arguing with him, he resumes his side of the argument until her eyes glaze over?

Do you remember the ad that went
"If you've got a craving for saving
and you passion for fashion
take the wheel of your automobile
and swing on down to Ideal"?

or

"I'm the boss's daughter for Atlantic Transmission. Transmission out of commission? Don't get frantic, call Atlantic."

I'm glad I'm not alone in the remembering crap department.

I am in a generous mood and inclined to believe it's possible that he's good in bed. But it's interesting to note what you find attractive about TM.

If that actually worked, I would spend roughly zero time here. I'd be out talking to Halle.

But please, tell me how well "Dude...uh...I mean babe, is the keg cashed yet?" works for you.

Menopause can do that, especially to a spinster.

Reaganomics
 
I'm sorry, but I feel compelled to say this. I find Slave's latching on to Reagan to be in terribly poor taste. Regardless of your politics, Reagan was a charming personality, loving husband, had a talent for diplomacy and chose his words carefully to always be pleasant no matter what pill or blow he was delivering. I find Slave's invocation of his image to be incredibly distasteful. I troubles me to see his image associated with sexually depraved, drug-addled rageaholics. And i thought the Christian right was destroying the party.

It's slated for a Fall 2240 release.
It would until you got to the date there. Happily, I have Mason & Dixon to keep me turgid until then.

The name of the girl who was on Average Joe is Samantha -- but I don't know anyone else's name (there was this German guy called Ruben or something, and the tumbler's name was JC, oh; and the jeweler's name was Laura -- other than that, I got nuthin on the names.)

As for (b), let me count the ways. He's probably a little under 6 feet tall, dirty blond hair, an impish grin, very tan, and a sa-mokin' bod. He's not all muscle-bound like Ahhnuld in his heydey or anything, but his muscles are very defined. Lamentably, I can tell you no more, as I haven't had (and am unlikely to have) a glimpse of other, uh... pertinent attributes.
