The Best Sex of your Life

The Best Sex of your Life

Sex is better when you can think of more things to like about someone than things you don’t like. It helps if the things you like aren’t all superficial.

The less you talk, the more sex you will get.
Ryan, 30, as quoted in Glamour Magazine, 101 Ways to Have the Best Sex of Your Life

My grandmother told me, ‘He should love you more than you love him.’ Two years and a bad breakup later, I realized that dating someone I loved less was an exercise in mind-numbing boredom.
Ruthie, 31, ibid.

Day Old Cake

Day Old Cake

Out of curiosity, I googled how many days old I am. Then I tried to remember as many of those days as I could. I found eureka moments, childhood memories, people, places, my wedding day, adventures, some Christmases. I remembered important days as well as insignificant days that were somehow important enough to be retained. I regretably confess I cannot remember all 14,368 days.
No, today isn’t my birthday, but I will nonetheless try to make it memorable.

Here is a “How Many Days Young Am I?” calculator. (Derbyshire Guide)

Here is the test to find whether your mission on earth is finished. If you’re alive, it isn’t.
Quotation from Richard Bach

The Courtship Ceremony

The Courtship Ceremony

Face it: Wooing is out, Woo Woo is in. Courtship in America ended somewhere between the time the television shows The Brady Bunch and The Love Boat were cancelled.

One good idea would be to invite the Pisces lady to your home to show her your aquarium. You should start your seduction process when she is engrossed in seeing fishes in your aquarium. Give her a kiss on the shoulders and this will automatically lead her to your bedroom.
Quotation from “Seduction by Sun Signs” (TheSecretsofSeduction.com)

A tall well-built woman with good
reputation, who can cook frogs
legs, who appreciates a good fuc-
schia garden, classical music and tal-
king without getting too serious.
But please only read lines 1, 3 and 5.

I’ll cry at anything

I’ll cry at anything

I’ll cry at anything when I’m sick. I get emotional at inappropriate moments– during game shows, talk shows, comedies, even during car commercials. I can’t help it.

This much we do know: All of us do it in varying degrees of blubbitude. Some of us are waterfalls, soaking fellow moviegoers with our public displays of empathy. Others are Saharas, for whom tears are about as rare as oases.
Quotation from Desson Thomson, The Washington Post

The Difference Between a Woman and a Banana (Dedicated to Dani)

The Difference Between a Woman and a Banana (Dedicated to Dani)

How to tell the difference between a woman and a banana: 4) Bananas give off ethylene gas. 3) The average erect banana is five to seven inches long (near-sighted), but subject to premature spotting and peeling. 2) It’s a known fact that women live longer than bananas. 1) Most bananas are picked green and never properly ripen.

Question: What does the idiom “going bananas” mean?
Answer: Going crazy, losing your mind. A lack of mental stability. To go bananas is symptomatic of doing irrational things, a lack of reason.

Every Negative has a Corresponding Positive

Nuclei can decay by positron emission; they may also decay by electron capture, so I’ll try to be positive for you. A life in equilebrium is a happy life.

Gravitation naturally does not exist for this observer. She must fasten herself with strings to the floor, otherwise the slightest impact against the floor will cause her to rise slowly towards the ceiling of the room.
Quotation from Albert Einstein, The Equality of Inertial and Gravitational Mass as an Argument for the General Postulate of Relativity

The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances; if there is any reaction, both are transformed.

Hungry for Love

Hungry for Love

I think we all hunger for love even when we have it, for without it, we are a shell of what we could be.

I compare myself with my former self, not with others. Not only that, I tend to compare my current self with the best I have been… When I am my present “normal” self, I am far removed from when I have been my liveliest, most productive, most intense, most outgoing and effervescent. In short, for myself, I am a hard act to follow.
Quotation from Kay Redfield Jamison, An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness

Do Beautiful People know what Beauty really is?

Do Beautiful People know what Beauty really is?

A dating website called Beautiful People only accepts new members by a popular vote of its existing members. In the past month, its members rejected almost two million hopefuls who had posted online photos of themselves. Their verdict? Swedish men and Norwegian women are the most beautiful in the world (with 76% of them accepted). Brazilians also scored high. Meanwhile, Britons are considered among the ugliest in the world, along with Russian and Polish men. The Germans also didn’t poll very well (only 14% were accepted).

Beauty stands
In the admiration only of weak minds
Led captive.
Poem from John Milton, Paradise Regained

A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
Poem from John Keats, Endymion

She’s the Devil

She’s the Devil

Unwanted romantic attention is sexual spam. Sure, you can sexually spam a thousand people and– maybe– get laid once, but what’s the point?

Researchers Become Spammers To See How Successful Spam Is (TechDirt.com) Computer scientists at the University of California took over a zombie network to send out bogus spam and watch the fake orders roll in. Except they didn’t get many orders. They sent out 350 million spam messages, and received a grand total of 28 orders. But, even accepting the researchers’ numbers, they found that the full zombie network they used could probably bring in about $7k per day, or about $2 million per year.

Waiting for Forever to Happen

Regarding The Love of Your Life: Do you wait forever for perfection or settle for ‘good enough?’

Why thus longing, thus forever sighing
For the far-off, unattained, and dim,
While the beautiful all round thee lying
Offers up its low, perpetual hymn?
Poem from Harriet Winslow Sewall

A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness.
Poem from John Keats

The Emo Berry

A life without pain offers no opportunity for self-examination or spiritual fulfillment. Everything that is perceived to be worthwhile and good would become meaningless without suffering and resolution. Accept your pain, but don’t passively accept the pain of others. And remember: Pain is never cool when one person inflicts it on another.

Pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.
Quotation from Kahlil Gibran

The pain passes, but the beauty remains.
Quotation from Pierre-Auguste Renoir

I Want Romance

“So you want to give her your chain?” the Slaver asked.
“No,” the customer replied. “I don’t want to buy the slave to keep her in chains. I want her for a companion.”

She called to me as I passed her by.
Lady of the night looked in my eyes.
She said, I been through some changes
But one thing always stays the same:
Without love, theres nothing without love.

Love Drunk

Why do politicians make the worst decisions?

South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford: Mistress is ‘soul mate,’ but I want to fall back in love with wife (New York Daily News)

I could digress and say that you have the ability to give magnificent gentle kisses, or that I love your tan lines or that I love the curve of your hips, the erotic beauty of you holding yourself (or two magnificent parts of yourself) in the faded glow of the night’s light – but hey, that would be going into sexual details…
Quotation from Governor Mark Sanford, written in an email to his “soulmate” Maria Belen Chapur

He was writing something and wanted some space to get away from the kids.

Kansas Personals

It must get lonely on those Kansas farms.
Hailstones the size of softballs;
Tornados, locusts, weather,
Always talk about the weather,
And don’t complain when
Your heels stick in newly-plowed dirt.

and you’re a thousand miles from the corn field.”

Rock Paper Cheese

I love looking at the moon, especially when
it’s a full moon. It makes me a little crazy.

Moonlight Triggers Mass Coral “Romance” (National Geographic)
Timing Romance with the Moon (Cafe Astrology)
Does a Full Moon Affect Human Behavior? (The Skeptic’s Dictionary)

“The child’s wonder
At the old moon
Comes back nightly.
She points her finger
To the far silent yellow thing
Shining through the branches
Filtering on the leaves a golden sand,
Crying with her little tongue, “See the moon!”
And in her bed fading to sleep
With babblings of the moon on her little mouth.”
Poem by Carl Sandburg, Child Moon

Dating

Dating rule #1 should be not to date people with problems greater than your own.

One night at the Wet Kitty, I met a sexy Dutch girl. We talked about places we knew in Amsterdam and Den Haag. She promised to send me a cooking recipe. She finally asked me to dance. She told me privately she was attracted to pain. Her fantasy was to be beaten with a board. She scared me.

Streaked

I want to feel special, needed, wanted and romanced.

Hiding in the shadows of a Capulet garden, Romeo wants to catch a glimpse of Juliet, who has his heart’s attention. Juliet appears on a balcony. Do you know what Romeo says?

“But soft! what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun!… Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven, having some business, do entreat her eyes to twinkle in their spheres till they return.”

The point is: Pay Attention.

*Quote from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet
