crap...blender's in the mail already...NOW you change it to toaster...
as for the millionaire marriage stuff...crap i say...i was cracking up at how the contestants tried to play it off like they weren't in it for the money...like it was all about love and family values and stuff like that...um????...i'd believe that crap if the show was "who wants to marry a plumber?"...or "who wants to marry a pig farmer?"...whatever...ratings
*ponders having his own little pageant called "who wants to marry a little fish?"*

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Nothing is more amusing, or sad than the endless battle between men and women on the grounds of love. Men want to be loved for themselves. Women want to be loved for themselves. Only....
Men want beautiful women who posed for the Sports Illustrated calendar while on hiatus from their six figure career, who nonetheless live to answer their every desire, and don't mind putting all that aside to raise the kids.
Women want men who will adore them, afford them security (spelled a lot of money) won't care what they actually look like under the war paint,and still have tons of time to spend appreciating their ladies, and playing.
Am I generalizing? Of course---but what do you see out there? The women on that pagaent last night---bathing suits and high heels? They were parading for the highest bidder---and they had already established their minimum price.
But the male involved...a bored guy, tired of suspecting that every woman he met was in it for his boodle---and he agrees to marry Miss Chicklets? Trump married Ivana first---a beautiful girl. When she grew up, he traded her in for a carbon copy. Marla. Then when she started to get older---(what maybe 30?) he went after the Next Miss Tropical Tan.
Stupid. Like a certain cup size, hair color, or arrangement of features assures you that the rest of the package is going to be great. Please........
Enough from me. I'm going to go live in a cave or something. I'll take love---first last and always.

Why can Kirk not put the most current dates of entries at the top of the page....I scrolled over 170 times to get to yesterday's dated material....gee whiz!!
PLEASE change that...spend more time scrolling than reading the stuff.
That is a great question that those women really should have asked themselves before requesting to appear on the show. "How would a woman explain that?" It just says so many different things to me. Desperate! Money Hungry! That would make some impression on any future suitors. I wonder how those that lost felt? I'm sure that many of them were smart enough to feel horrible. Oh well, we all make mistakes. It's just that we try not to do it for millions of others to see. There is an up side to being a loser. They were able to place a personal ad for millions of people to see.
Poetwench i just loved the Salad Days Poem. I made another attempt at writing my own. Check it out.
I almost submitted "In the Flesh" by Blondie the other day 'cause I like it but I decided the lyrics aren't strong enough to stand on their own.
..."Darlin, darlin, darlin...I can't wait to see you/your picture ain't enough/I can't wait to touch you/in the flesh"
Still haven't found a karaoke bar that has that song on the list.
...As for the millionaire thing, I'm sure at least some of you remember that comment I posted awhile back. I tried to be on the show but I'm glad I didn't make the cut. I'd rather marry a plumber or a bus boy or a little fish. :)
Oh oh oh!!! Just wanted to add that if I had better luck in love I never would have done a lot of the crazy things I have done. Like placing personal ads, hitchhiking to L.A. from Tahlequah, Oklahoma, writing reams of psychotic poetry, writing horrendous novels, and throwing my colors across the canvas and not caring if anyone likes my shade of blue. I wanted to marry the first guy I ever loved when I was 17. He had no money or power...he was just a 17 year old like me. But I loved the way he embraced me and made me laugh and the way he smelled and the way he kissed and the way he could make me shiver just by touching my face.
I'm glad now that he didn't love me enough to marry me, but my needs and desires are basically the same. I just want to find a man who can make me shiver. It would be a HUGE bonus if I could make him shiver, too. Bye.
Hello Pensacola---
Much tighter---much more imagery to taste---and no one is a "professional" silly.

Dear Breakup Girl,
I dated someone for 2 years and I broke it off; due to gambling and cheating. He still calls, pages, and drops by. How do I let him know that it's over for good? I've tried to get the message across but he won't take NO for an answer. HELP!!!!
