His commercials show up in NY. They make me feel sick, like the diamond - I love this woman commercial.

(Prince swears off x-rated lyrics and cursing)
when I first heard Prince it was Controversy. I'd heard how his lyrics were all sex-related and i thought he was saying "count your pussy" like a bedpost notch kind of thing. (at the time, I was young; probably a C.Clinton level drinker.) do you think I should let him know so he can alter the phrasing on the song?

True enough, but it is almost completely redeemed in my mind by it's presence in the closing sequence/credits of Harold and Maude.

Ambition and relationships

I had what I guess you could call a deep and meaningful convo with a woman Im interested in, but it left me rattled.

I thought she was seeing someone and we were just hanging out as friends last night. We had gone on a couple of dates a few months ago when she told me she was seeing another guy, but wanted to stay friends. We did.

Last night I found out that the guy she was seeing is now history. She started asking me about if I had been seeing anyone. Ive gone on dates, but no one particularly special. Her question made me think she might have an interest in me. I boldly asked her if she thought there was still a chance for romance between the two of us.

She gave me an honest answer. She didnt know. While shes attracted to me and enjoys my company, she felt there were certain things about me that she thought might make for a mismatch between us. I pressed her for examples and she obliged. And here we get to the point of my rattling.

She said it was vitally important to her that her significant other have ambition and be passionate about his career. She wants to be with a person who konws what he wants and goes after it. Ive heard this before from others. She said she thought that while I was an accomplished and smart guy, that she didnt get the sense that I was extremely passionate about working at my firm or that I had definite career goals in my mind that I had made a plan to go after. But she still wanted to spend time with me and wanted to know how I felt about her thoughts.

I told her that Im far more passionate about relationships and people I care about and that I consider my work to be just a job. Its a means for me to do the things I want. There are partso f it I really like, parts that I get passionate about, but I find the greatest fulfilment and enrichment in making and nurturing a connection with someone. I dont really understand the compulsion for planning and achieving a certain type of career success. The peeps I know who do that seem to be more driven, more workaholic, and less available for the people in their personal lives, and theyre much more assholish. I dont want to be that kind of person.

She seems to think you can be driven and ambitious while developing a rich personal life.

What I dont get is the importance many women place on their men having this ambition and passion about their career and why being passionate about you r mate isnt more important. is this a mars-venus thing? Women are attracted to the caveman with the biggest club, who can be the most protective, and brings in the most kill? I must be missing something.

Can yall provide enlightment?
Yeh, you're supposed to fuck hookers, not talk to them.

If he spends that much work time playing with email lines, he can't have ambition and be passionate about his career. you should want to be with a person who konws what he wants and goes after it. dump him.

Why do people have to rewrite re lines on every email anyway? Is it a control thing? Is he anal? Does he have to try that hard to be funny? is it all a bad [JOKE]? Is this just the beginning of a lifetime of stting at the proverbial coffee table reading the NYT while he cracks his knuckles and chews gum? Am I just too shallow here?
I would think the dealbreaker would be misuse of peripatetic, myself, but then I call Yankees Yankees all the time.

If it annoys you that much, it may be a deal breaker. Certainly bad accents are a deal breaker for me. I've only once dated a Yankee, but he hadn't lived in the N.E. for years and years, which had softened the grating edge.

Arrghhh. Douche chills every time I see that commercial. I suspect she's much like FBA's friend. I hate that fucking golddigging bitch.

(Whispers: " I hate that woman. I hate her. I hate her.")

Edited to add: Unfortunately, we have John Blasedow here, too. He seems to show up on early Saturday afternoons.

My pretty little pussies would express offense at the insinuation that their poopers do not smell like petunias if they weren't on their way to your place to shit on your duvet.

I used to have a dog that liked to sneak into the litter room and eat kitty cookies -- I pity any person who speaks to a Brit with breath like that.

Oh yeah, the Thrashers are yet undefeated. We tied the Rangers (I will not mention the plethora of shitty calls that were made, but you know who you are).

Thank you. I loathe that commerical. I loathe it, I loathe it, I loathe it.

And WTF is the fascination with St. Mark's? It sucks. Tourists, pigeons, stupid fucking tourists playing with filthy pigeons, and overpriced cafes the only virtue of which is the vantage point for observing human stupidity.

I actually saw a bride and groom stride out to the middle of the square to have their photo taken. Even funnier than the tourists who had their children cover themselves with pigeons for the video cam.
