> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Davebear \* > What are you talking about? You knew that incredibly hot waitress (not kidding, there!) was flirting her gorgeous ass off, with you. Granted, she wasn’t subtle about it, but if you were truly clueless, you still would have missed it. Well, I still couldn’t tell you if it was genuine or Strictly Professional Waitress[sup]TM[/sup] flirting. And while I may have realized it faster than I usually do (sometime during the bike ride, I think), it was not fast enough to do anything about it. And I really hate to add this, but, she wasn’t my type. ---

Psst… Dave, I think Rocky was freaked out by the word “crushing” 😉 As for the winking I have a bad habbit of winking and licking my lips/teeth a lot IRL. I’ve always been a bit of a flirt, even when I didn’t mean to. Gets a girl in trouble, ya know? ---

Hm. **Dave** & **RobotArm** play pool? Very interesting… Would you gentlemen be willing to show me how to play? Never got around to learning, but it looks like fun… **tanookie** , you still around? How’s the third tri-mester going? Make sure that man of yours rubs your feet. Lots. It helps the swelling. ---

But, I don’t run and hide at the mere mention of it. 😛 > [@](#): > > \*\*As for the winking I have a bad habit of winking and licking my lips/teeth a lot IRL. I’ve always been a bit of a flirt, even when I didn’t mean to. Gets a girl in trouble, ya know? \*\* No, it doesn’t. But, it could very well _lead_ to the activity that “gets a girl in trouble”. 😃 > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Robot Arm \* > \*\*I knew we were getting a bit more attention than usual (or at least my clothes were), which is always nice. But I wouldn’t necessarily have called it flirting at the time, and certainly not soon enough to do anything about it. \*\* No, _you_ were getting more attention than usual. Me, she couldn’t have cared less about. And, yes, she was commenting on your vest, but that’s way of complimenting the person, without being too personal. It’s a preliminary, to see how the person responds. Right, ladies? Besides, she was devouring you with her eyes. I wonder why I always notice these things when they happen to other people, and rarely notice when they happen to me. > [@](#): > > \*\*Didn’t really have enough time to get to know her personality. Just an eye-of-the-beholder thing, I guess. My taste doesn’t seem to be quite the same as most guys. \*\* True, but you noticed difference between her and the second waitress, right? The first one was perky, bold, outgoing, self-confident, with a quick wit, and a great sense of humor. The second one was friendly, too, but nowhere near as outgoing. So, what is your taste in women? Care to share? Maybe she’s lurking in this thread. > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by CanvasShoes \* > **Can I just say “awwwwwwwwwwwwww”.** Of _course_ you can! I love that. 🙂 Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. Errr…warmER and fuzzIER. And, I’m glad you decided to drop in. > [@](#): > > \*\*Right now I can’t think of anything poetic, or “cooler” to say. But I’m thrilled for you!!! \*\* Hmm. Didn’t read the whole thing, did ya’? S’okay, I warned you not to read the middle parts, but things didn’t work out well enough to warrant thrills. > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Wyatt \* > \*\*_bows at the feet of his sensei_ > > [Reverent] 25!!! Quotes!!! Such Mastery! \*\* The _Legendary One_ one senses something amiss in the unwonted brevity of his favorite acolyte’s posting. A mystery worth pondering. > [@](#): > > _Originally posted by Flamsterette\_X_ > \*\*I’m doing just fine, Davebear honey. 😉 And how are YOU? 😉 \*\* Hmm. Apparently, the “ooginess factor” wasn’t as high as I thought, on that. Much better, now, for having a sweet young thing like you flirting with me. 🙂 > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Maureen \* > \*\*Hm. _Dave_ & _Robot Arm_ play pool? Very interesting… > Would you gentlemen be willing to show me how to play? Never got around to learning, but it looks like fun… \*\* _He_ plays; I try. What was the name of that movie, with Paul Newman, George C Scott, and Jackie Gleason as Minnesota Fats? Had something to do with pool, as I recall. For some reason, your post calls it to mind. > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Robot Arm \* > \*\* I’d be happy to, but from 3,000 miles away, it’s not going to be easy. \*\* And, no where near as much fun. But, if she asks if you want to make a friendly wager on the game, “just to make it interesting”, decline! > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Robot Arm \* > \*\* _mumble_ third trimester sucks lost my feet somewhere can’t breathe or bend blah blah pain blah blah need to have baby _mumble_ \*\* Awwwwww! {{{{ **tanookie** }}}}} ---
