Staking Out the Territory. I follow Grant's suave and subtle gawk across the crowded restaurant. It's times like these when my faith in men is restored. The woman he's gawking at looks more like Walter Matthau than Pamela Anderson. Putting Up the Protective Force Field.
Grant is about to enter unknown territory.
He has no idea if the female alien will greet him with open arms or jump down his throat and castrate him with her teeth. One of the best lines a guy ever used on me was at the Atlanta airport. As he skillfully tucked the tag in at my collar, he scanned me like I was the Venus de Milo. Then he walked off. I didn't stop salivating until somewhere over Orlando.
