Sweetheart, I’m just as guilty as you. Let’s stand in the corner together and take a time out.
You asked about C.C. Sabathia in the other thread, yeah, he’s a lefty. Throws extremely hard, very tough to hit.
Has great stuff, possibly #1 starter stuff, but might end up as a reliever. He, Danys Baez, and Tim Drew will hopefully join Bartolo Colon and Jaret Wright in giving the Indians a dominant rotation.
Now, enough about pitching. How’s about you being Omar Vizquel to my Robbie Alomar? (for I concede that it’s you that makes our team special, my sweet fielding shortstop) Just let me put on my…glove.
I see I’m being accused of being part of the hijacking problem on the other thread; how did this happen? I merely offered the insightful comment that they were obviously not making the correct choice. Geez
Sir…it is an HONOR to be associated with you–and I quite agree that you are truly a gourmet among gourmands when it comes to the fairer sex. Your palate for the ladies is most discerning, your taste in the ladies most exquisite.
I invite you to indulge yourself in flirting here, with the fine women who have chosen to associate with us.
I am truly blessed and touched, particularly as the praise is forthcoming from such a fair and honourable maiden as you:
“honour of a maid is her name; and
no legacy is so rich as honesty.”
–All’s Well that Ends Well, Act 3, Scene v
It has been quite a while since I’ve seen you around, Wacky Ninja, and I don’t know if absence makes the heart grow fonder, but I’ve missed having you to flirt with:
“It gives me wonder great as my content
To see you here before me. O my soul’s joy!”
–Othello, Act 2, Scene i
Hey, honey, what are YOU doing on this board at this hour? I almost never get to flirt-I mean, conduct meaningful discussions about the important things in life-with you in real time!
Okay, so did you happen to catch the 19 inning game the Mariners WON the other night? If I hadn’t been on vacation, I would have had to give it up and go to bed.
So, what’s up tonight?
Mr. Snake, you say? What a weird name. So, what are the two of you planning on doing this evening?
Say, by the way, AudreyK and I are planning on flying to LA to slap you around a little. And, not in a good way, if you catch my drift.
Duck, run and flee all you want, you will not be able to get out of this one. No way, no how. Even Shakespeare cannot save you now, my love.
Scotti Braveheart
I don’t really believe in this picking stuff, either: as I’ve said previously, there is a veritable plethora of fair ladies here. To pick one out of all of you lovely and gifted ladies would be pointless:
“To gild refined gold, to paint the lily,
To throw a perfume on the violet,
To smooth the ice, or add another hue
Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light
To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish,
Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.”
–King John, Act 4, Scene ii
I am honored by your opinion of me as a really nice guy, though to that end I must chide you gently for believing, in a previous thread, that I had something against flirting. Nothing could be further than the truth!
Though new to the Straight Dope Message Board (and by the way, I offer you my much belated welcome!), it has become obvious to me, nay, to everyone here, what a charming and precious lady you are:
“You, that have so fair parts of woman on you,
Have too a woman’s heart; which ever yet
Affected eminence, wealth, sovereignty;
Which, to say sooth, are blessings”
–King Henry VIII, Act 2, Scene iii
OESGal, I thank you for your kind words.

Clearly I was waiting for you. I searched for you in every street in hell*
*[sub]not a profanity per se, but a line from The Lion in Winter–the GREATEST MOVIE EVER MADE![/SUB]

Alas, I fear not…I was composing paens to your beaut…oh, I already used that line, didn’t I? :eek:

Tease! I thought the line was “Not tonight dear, I have a headache!”

“Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more”

So, darlin’, howsabout you fly into San Fransisco, I’ll meet you there, and we do the town before heading down to LA to bust his chops? We could have some fun, find a nice cheap tub of tar, a bunch of feathers, and head on down the road to LA.
Hey, you have to admit, we should have NO problem finding these items in SanFran.
