Thanks guys.  I have long hair and one earing and I consider myself in the
good guy category (though I only were my danglers on stage)....... I am
lacking any tatoos so far.  I always sterotype the above as a computer-geek
who drives a Camaro and has lots of gold jewlery (Now don't get ruffled
its humor here folks).

On the serious side... This does bring up a rather interesting point.  I 
too see a lot of woman (and occasionally men) who seem to eat up the lies
even though they know better.  It seems they want to get used or that 
honesty and a personality have gone out of style.  

I was rather popular in high-school, but I lost interest in the opposite
sex from the age of 15-19 in light of sports and automobiles (would have
married the first female machanic I met).  I mention the previous to make
the following observation;  The girls were always after the cool dude who
scored the second most touchdowns, slammed a quart of Jack D and shoved 
around seventh graders.  Brains, potential or any type of sophistication 
meant nothing. Even back then I never understood the reason why and for
a while I really went through a period of disillusionment.  

It wasn't until college that a couple of ladies who were older than myself
and interested in me rekindled my interest in the Op sex.  In college
I noticed that the diversity was greater (though the "high-school girl"
mentality still persisted in some).  Worse yet, on the outside, I seemed
to appeal to that mentality (owned a hot car, played in a rock band, etc.) 
and I had to fend off more than a few approaches from the brain dead.

Well to cut things short.  Its many years since high-school and four since
college.  Interestingly, the girls who married the football stars are all
divorsed and they now are trying to meet all the guys they never noticed 
eight years ago.  Suddenly personality, consideration and style
mean something to them.  And it works the other way.  The girl no one
noticed in high school is now the one everyone wants to meet.  I guess I 
was lucky to have missed most of it.

In conclusion, nice guys and girls seem to come into style as one ages.  Of 
course, its important to maintain balance in any relationship.  I've never 
used anyone, but I've never been run over either.
