                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So I checked out a show or four at the peeler bar, downing a
pint or two of Kokanee Gold, and went to one of my favorite
stomping grounds, The Drummer's Lounge (conveniently, in the
same hotel, five minutes from my place by limousine!).

So I ordered another brew, and there was this woman, about 27,
sayiny that she needed two things: A man and a job.

She was flashing her new set of darts that somebody gave her
for XMas. "Good flights, Eh?" she said.
I replied, "Let's see!"

Upon examining the darts, I said, "Good balance, y'know!"
"I'll have you a game," she said.
"I ain't played in years, Eh?" was what I said.

She casually applied her lipstick, as her green eyes reflected
off the red-tipped rod. This WAS a turn-on!

One of her friends showed up, and they had three games,
diddling for the middle.

Her friend left, having won, and she did a practice round.
While practicing, I said, "I ain't no good, but I'll play you
one, Eh?

It was a good match. She beat me by one dart!

Two other friends showed up, and we played them in mixed
doubles. They won two out of three. Then we played three
more, Ladies against Gentlemen. We won, but only by one
dart.

During all of this, I was buying her drinks. She got six
excellent backrubs out of me, judging by her moans of 
pleasure.

At the end of the night, I offered her a ride home. Playing it
cool, she said, "I'm OK but meet me here tomorrow night!"

Have hat, will travel!!!

More males are born than females.  Males outnumber females at all ages until
around 40-50.  And males and females had the same life expectancy till about
1900-1920, and still do, except that for some reason the male life expectancy
curve got to be a couple decades behind the females', resulting in an apparent
5-10 year vertical gap or so.  It's been evening back out though since the 70's.

Just so everybody is clear on what I said, when I said:

  "I think it idiotic to be utilizing modern technologies that spread your 
   words worldwide almost instantaniously, but refuse to eat a ham-and-cheese
   sandwich because you might get condemned to whatever for it."

I was attempting to show how and why I believe that religions, in this 
specific example (and I did use other examples of religous rituals in that
article as well, funny how those haven't re-appeared) Judaism, is archaic,
and that adhering to outdated ideas is, in my opinion always idiotic, 
whether it be religious ideas or dating ideas. If somebody came on here and
posted something about how he/she believes that 'A womans place is in the
kitchen', I would call that idea archaic and idiotic as well. Remember, this
is all in the context of >dating<- this is soc.singles here, folks.

In my opinion, God doesn't give a flying hooey if you happen to eat a ham
and cheese sandwich. Its my honest belief that God cares more about what sort
of person you are, rather than what you had for lunch. God cares more about
things like 'peace' and 'love' and 'understanding' rather than 'gee, did I
complete this ritual correctly'. That is what I believe in.

If religious rituals make you a better person, than go for it. Read what I
said in my defense in an earlier article. If you can examine your total 
elief system, and you find it sound, strong, viable, then I'll be first
in line to wish you continued success.

But if one person comes along and rattles your entire tree by saying that
he thinks its silly to be condemed to hell for a ham-and-cheese sandwich,
then I think that you've got a serious problem with your religion. IMO.

Hmmm.  I still have a problem with this 'fault' idea.  This implies there is
something 'wrong' and blame must be placed.  Why?  Can't one just kvetch
for the sake of kvetching without there being an implied necessity for
change?

IMO, kvetching ( within reason) is good for the soul.  It releases a
lot of pentup anxiety and this is usually a good thing.

Quite right. In that context nice would translate as bon.

jolie is closer to pretty.

A clarification is in order:

Even today it is extremely rare for a Reform rabbi to officiate
at a mixed marriage.  Almost all will insist that the non-Jewish
party undergo a conversion.

So technically, the issue really hinges on the authenticity of
the conversion.  I guess that most people know that these conversions
are usually a fraud, so call these "mixed marriages" even though
most Reform rabbis claim they "would *never* go so far as to 
officiate a mixed marriage"  The Israeli government, nor Orthodox Jews,
nor Halachic Law recognizes Reform conversions.  Don't know about
Conservative conversions though; who recognizes them?

Ken:  No, we're just friends.

Don:  Uh oh.  Too bad.

As I recall the third trip was a 1 1/2 flight to Ottawa to a surprise
going away party for a young friend of mine.  She was very surprised
when we walked in the door (its a four hour drive).  We stayed for 3
hrs for the party and then flew home.  Everyone was *most* impressed
