This came up at the fair and you should’ve gone if you wanted the goods on Aglarond. Yep, I think I’ll keep this my little secret for a little while longer. I am open to a little bribery though. ---

iampunha, I think you got off on the wrong track. Grace was answering me about Aglarond’s broken nose. Jim ---

I just wanted to see if Grace would spill. But I have it on good authority that at least one female at the dopefest thought you were cute, SS. ---

Only one? ☹ Thats devestating… j/k I got slammed with a killer insult that I took as a compliment later that night by a woman at a party I attended. Were all talking right, myself a guy and three women…I make some comment about one of the girls hair and turn on my heels and walk off…she makes a mumbled comment to her friend…but I overhear it! Girl to friend: I really hate that guy…he’s cute and he knows it and he just uses it to make women weak! Friend: Yeah, hes a real jerk… Me: Big ear to ear stupid faced shit eater grin! You had to be there I guess… Ok I’m shutting up now! -SS 😃 ---

Well, the girls there are right. There are probably several male dopers who think yer cute as well. ---
