Although I do like a woman who can handle herself, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind But if my armchair ever (finally?) leaves the dock, and I am in your part of the world we can discuss the position () further over a few beers. or so But probably will stick to seperate boats. probably

Objectively speaking of course, I think the one to the right might be exactly what you're looking for Davey .... well wait a minute, maybe it's the one to the left ... no perhaps the one to the right.

Hell Davey, why not just see if you can convince them to be in a Ménage à trois with you!

Just trying to helpful Davey, as always ....

Laughed out loud at this one.

Reminded me of a guy that I would always pass at a given off ramp in Tucson, signs saying "vet" and "please help" as he panhandled. He lived under that bridge. One day his sign said "Woman wanted, must have sense of humor and love the out of doors". When he saw me laughing, he flipped the sign over and said, "SO if you won't marry me, will you give me a dollar for making you laugh?". Effective. I did.

My dear Billy the Pirate Kid , your thoughts are greatly valued - especially given that this is perhaps more of an armchair thread.

FYI (and the titilation of others?) because I didn't already know the answer I did once ask the one on the right about a Ménage à Trois. I recall interpreting her dismissive grunt and hard stare as a maybe . Back then of course I had some dreams to work towards.

Looking back on it I perhaps should have taken a different approach involving a Poll and a bucket of psycho babble to support my conclusions; that a Ménage à Trois was also her dream ..........although truth be told they (for me) be fairly dull. Albeit not totally

BTW the reason for my last post was that the one on the left looked like a Police sketch of her, but I think that unlikely - given her family's motto: "No Survivors" Which motto she rather annoyingly also followed a little while back , hence my wanted ad

That's so not true!

I have no problem sharing or splitting up the cooking and laundry duties. On the other hand, if I'm going to do all of the fixin' and fun stuff (like going up the mast), I expect to have my laundry done and someone cook for me.

And I even have the boat already. Although if she had some money to toss around that would help pay off the loan faster.

Only fair, if it's going to become "our" boat. And it would help us cut the dock lines sooner.

Not far wrong there Tao.

What with artificial sperm and more girls being born, and girls doing better in school, its only a matter of a few more generations before the tipping point of no return.

The writing is on the wall fellas

Nah, anjou . . . it's all in the title of Spike Lee's '86 film:

She's Gotta Have It

But maybe you and I have a different understanding of what "It" is.

Where's that sperm going to come from when only girls are being born, though?
