I don't know the original motivation, but omitting one's name from the post itself would certainly be at least as effective.

Changing one's name every year is also helpful.

The pusseaze -- that's brilliant!

As for your questions, Soupy, I don't want to go criticize other posters, but if I may:

Mrs. Sandwich -- pedestrian, conventional. NTTAWWT. If she's nicely endowed, maybe cups o soup?

Soupette -- a little blah. Soupcon would be better.

Soup Dog is pretty good, sounds like Snoop Dog, so it's evocative.

Things I have done today

Today, in the midst of a four hour conference call, I realized I was out of food in my office and was so hungry I ate part of a paper napkin. It did not do the trick. Thankfully, shortly thereafter I was able to get my secretary's attention - she brought me a banana.

Sidd's parentheticals are always amusing but they were particularly so during the Brobeck deathwatch.

You know what, I have caught myself doing this. Not so much when I was hungry as about the same time I quit smoking.

That's damn funny.

Is it a link on the web or a pic you have personally? If it is one you have just send it to me, I'll post it.

Of the napkin or the banana, I'd say the banana has more appeal

What's Your Destiny - Poll?

Okay, did anybody take a good look at this site? I opened the site and took the test. I didn't pay enough attention to the results initially, so I logged on again. What's the main function of this site, a dating service, or is there some other purpose? When I scrolled down to the bottom of the page, it matches your results with other members in your area, with pictures no less! If this is what I would theoretically be compatible with, I have one word -- OOFA!

Without posting pictures, a good poll question for today would be:

If you were in a position to date any of these supposedly compatible people, would you find any of them even remotely physically attractive?

In the interest of disclosure I would say two out of the four listed were even close to being average looking.

Please categorize as follows:

Total Number "Matches"

# of Knockouts

# Above Average

# Average

# Below average

# Butt fugly


My results:

Total - 4

2 - Average

2 - Butt fugly

spooky(can I take the test again?)fish

Edited to say: This may not work as a poll question for Leagl, et. al., b/c the website I believe assumes everyone's a hetero.

I thought it would be bad form to say you could "pretend you're a guy/girl".

No doubt. Then, I might have called you a motherfucking breeder.
