But, if you think about it, it's good because (most) everyone here will have more fun thinking of you wrapping your lips around the blow pop and licking it like it's the sweetest candy in the world.

But I can't eat candies that say "U.R.O.K." and "FAX ME."

I may have to hit the after Valentine's Day sale at Target tomorrow.

On the minus side, I'm irritated because Walgreens ran out of Sweet Hearts this morning. Who the fuck runs out of Sweet Hearts on Valentine's day? I bought some Valentine's blow pops but it's just not the same thing.

I think that a woman at our firm bought them all out.

This woman (as it happens, a smokin' associate here) walked into my office with a cheery, "Happy Valentine's Day!" and handed me a box of Sweethearts.

I smiled (medium wattage), thanked her, and unobtrusively glanced at the box to see if these were among the ones with the, ah, off-color messages. They were not, and my heart sank just a bit.

Its plunge continued when I heard her give boxes to the secretaries outside, and everyone down the hall.

When I was in college, a boy that I knew gave me a bag of conversation hearts. On closer inspection, it was revealed that he had scraped off all of the silly messages on them, and written on every single one of them "Do me". I did not. But I have always remembered him fondly on Valentine's Day.

Yes, but she really just meant to give those hearts to you Gatti, the others were just clever cover. I say you corner her in the coffee room and flash her a maximum wattage smile, while adjusting your expensive wristwatch, as well as your trousers.

I expect a full report. Or to read about you in the Cal Bar discipline summaries.

Not during VD.

You said you checked with a doctor and it was all cleared up. What, she reinfected you again? You really need to make sure that you, your wife, the poolboy, and all the neighborhood wives (and their husbands, I suspect) get treated AT THE SAME TIME.

Or buy the poolboy a gross of condoms.

What brand of condoms are best? It's been years since I have purchased any myself but I feel like I should probably stock up, now that I am again single, so that I am not depending on someone else all the time.

You see? I gave you a softball for Valentine's Day. Did it make you happy? And why does that poolboy hang out in our neighborshood when no one has any pools?

On another note, it strikes me that having a barbershop quartet come in and seranade someone would probably only be appreciated by about 1/4 of all women, and you'd think a boyfriend would have some understanding as to when their girlfriend is that 1/4. But it was entertaining for the rest of the office.

A couple of people have gotten balloons. WTF. Maybe as well as flowers, but not instead of.

From my perspective, aside from not being a huge fan of spermicide because I think it upsets the delicate bio balance and contributes to, uh, bad stuff happening, I don't care. I think guys are more likely to have a preference.

I have turned down sex because of the lack of condoms. I have never turned down sex because I was unhappy with the condom that was available. Maybe I'd bring my own next time, but . . .

"Well, I'd love to bang the hell out of you, but I endorse Trojan Brand condoms and therefore wouldn't be comfortable using those. Could we just snuggle instead?"

There is, BTW, a consumer reports article on this precise question this month. Although I think the question it answered was not "which is best" but "which blows up last when pumped full of 50 gallons of water." So, if you're looking for a water baloon alternative, they've got you covered.

Um, yeah, but she seems to be looking for recommendations as to brand or whatever. Hence the statement that, aside from the bio-disturbance of spermicide, if there is any input, it may come more from guys. I recall that there was some discussion of brands on the old board.

Think of it as if she were going to have shaving cream and/or disposable razors for overnight guests to use. While different people are going to have different preferences, and most guys will be OK with whatever, as a good hostess, she would like to get razors and shaving cream that are likely to make the guy happy.

So do you have any recent experience of testing out different brands? Preferences?

I don't think there is a huge difference among the various standard options, but then there are the lambskin ones ....

But, protection for STD is not as good.

But I think you should go with some kind of a theme - like maybe have the ABBAkiss logo imprinted on them.

Are you serious? What were the other catagories besides strength? Interference with sensitivity? Ease of opening the package? What?
