Thanks for the encouragement CmdrWilkens. He'll need all the support that he can muster but he seems to be doing much better today and his father was released from the hospital and resting at home!

Sometimes a little time to rest, relax, and re-examine things once people are aware of a problem cna help you get through things better. Its a tough process though so bet on having to be that shoulder a few more times.Next of Kin wrote:Thanks for the encouragement CmdrWilkens.

"I put no stock in religion. By the word religion I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of god. I have seen too much religion in the eyes of too many murderers. Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness. "

Sounds somewhat like me and guys. Looka t the body. Face must NOT be hideous. Then get them to smile (straight white teeth with sharp canines are droolable). Look at the body (again). Make decision, unless they decide to ask me out. But most of the time, they ask me out. I have confrontation issues.Asst. Asst. Lt. Cmdr. Smi wrote:I don't believe in it. I want to check a girl out first. Look closer, make sure her face isn't all ugly, check the ass one more time, and then consider spending time with her.

Neither did I. She strolled up to me, looked me over, licked her lips, and said, "Nice shoes, wanna fuck?"Larz wrote:I didn't even know my last girlfriend when she asked me out... it was quiet a surprise when she did...

My response: "Okay."
Then she picked me up and took off with me.
Heh.
