Oh Salem! What I wouldn’t give for someone with daughters of helpful ages! There’s no one in the area I can get to munchkin sit except my MIL!
Please minus the broken foot for me 
The last thing I need is some other thing to happen like that! I waddle enough with all the bones intact!
Down, girl! And, wipe the drool off your chin, would ya’? 
I didn’t know I look like him, either. I don’t know where Sherri came up with that. Although, she thinks Mr. Stewart is yummy, too. As I said, I don’t see the resemblance. And, I think tanookie and lorene would have to agree with me.
Yep. That’s how Dave is taking it (along with “badly”).
Yeah, that’s kinda what I figured. Thanks, for doing the link, too.
Yeah, I remember that rumor. I don’t think I agreed, but it’s been a long time.
Aargh! I hate that “blissful ignorance” stuff. Makes me want to smack the perpetrators with a Sack O’ Clues™.
But, I think your assessment is right on the mark, FWIW.
Dude! I didn’t mean now!.
Well, we won’t be seeing much of Wyatt or October, for a while. 
Well, there’s nothing new about that. That’s been happening since I joined the board, practically. Why else would I stick around?
Having just recently moved to Malden, I can say that, while nothing will ever hold a candle to Pizzeria Regina, Beantowne Pizza on Main Street make a damn fine pie.
Sorry things didn’t work out with the dream date, Dave. Ah, she was too short for you anyway, right?

The one and only, the Original "Cool and Everything … But®…"
chuckle Salem (started tasteless joke about Salem women being hot, got better sense …) … heck maybe I’ve developed my permanent personna/trade-mark, Right here in a D.Bear thread!
Button down shirt, all winter. Blazer and jeans, only for ‘dress up occasions’ and, even then, usually black jeans. But it’s Summer here! We’re havin’ a Heat wave (gonna break 100f again at my house!) That meant two things … 1) had to ‘invent’ air conditioning for my friend’s bunnies 2) I’ve somehow gotten myself stuck into a ‘style’ of Hawaiian shirts (the more ‘subtle’ end of the spectrum, no topless hula girls!) with Kacky (dang! Spell check and 2 dictionaries can’t get close enough to find it! Call 'em Dark Green) pants or near-white ‘natural’ linen. oh… and OF COURSE, well tended, well maintained shoes! Though Nothing like …
, just the black ones, slip-ons (hum … if shoes=relationship does that mean I’m easy?) WITH socks, not the Tevas, we’re talking Work clothes here!
Gotta look professional!
So… SHOULD I be looking toward the jeans/button-down/blazer combo? or avoiding it?
I leave for ONE WEEK, and what happens???
::sigh:: …I think this is fairly obvious, but:
She’s not good enough. She doesn’t deserve you. And in playing it safe, she has just cheated herself silly.
I’m sorry, Davebear. But, I guess, better early than five or six months down the line, huh?
Wyatt… the word you’re trying to spell is Khaki
tanookie:smack: and as they say in the X-gen WORD!
mumbles something about Really wanting to Hang that pregnant gal’s Shelves! — what ever That means …
Yeah, Wyatt, gotta watch out for those stealth consonants.
You know, I’ve never actually READ the “Spit or Swallow” thread; it was so long it almost intimidated me. Now that I have fantasies about Davebear a la Patrick Stewart, however…
Of course, Wyatt, if you want to (a) get no work done and (b) create general consternation in your office, ask somebody who’s better at searching the boards than I am to link to either the TMI Thread or the Pimple Thread for you. I guarantee you’ll be choking back laughter, tears, cries of outrage, and gagging from repulsion for many hours to come!
already Knows where MamaT’s vote falls in the “bald nearly shaved head” v/s “Nearly bald with pony tail” question …
Ya know, I think this advice on how to “get no work done” is a WAY superior thing to all the advice out there about how to efficiently get lots and lots of work done … now if I could just sell that to the boss … hey! Wait! I AM the boss! I’ll just give the mortgage company a quick email, and explain I’m WAY to busy getting my SDMB education to fool with paying pursuits! I’m Sure they’ll understand why they won’t be getting paid for a few weeks…
Well Mama Tiger, if you ever get around to reading the Spit & Swallow thread, it’s, umm… very educational. Dave proved himself a good bartender too. @ Dave
Aargh! No, she was wonderful to hug. 
So, what part of Malden? I lived all over, at various times; Maplewood, Ferryway Green, Oak Grove, Main St near the Everett border (horrible little apartment!), etc.
And, I disagree about Pizzeria Regina. I know lots of people like it, but I think their pizza sucks. Just a matter of taste. No offence intended.
Sorry, Wyatt, you’re cool and everything, but I wore my sandals to work, today. Not Teva’s, though. Rockports.
Sorry, Mama Mo. I tried to arrange for a happy ending. But, no, I don’t agree about it being better now. This way, I got chopped off at the height of my infatuation with her, rather than after that had faded, as it probably would have after a while. I wish she hadn’t accepted my offer for that date.
Well. I felt okay, until I came back in here. Now, I feel like I could really use a hug.
Thanks! A chuckle is almost as good as a hug. And, she IS a cutie, but ya’ got no shot. She won’t even flirt with me, and I know pretty much her entire sexual repertoire. 
Oh, so you’re the one! Actually, I suppose there must be a few people who haven’t. But, not many, considering it even sucked in (sorry) Polycarp and Coldfire. As I recall, it broke the 16,000 “Views” mark. Oh, and I just looked (Thanks, again, tanookie); it’s 21 pages.
Thanks, Dream Girl. ;), right back at ya’. That was a really fun thread, and I met a lot of really nice people, because of it.
Oh, good. It’s almost bedtime. Tomorrow; day ten (but, who’s counting?). :rolleyes:
Now Dave… the only one who knows my entire repitoire would be the ever quiet Parallax
You do know more than the average Dave though!
I’ve never been really good at flirting though. You can ask Parallax - he certainly didn’t notice when I was flirting with him! So either I am a horrible flirt or he is terribly dense or both. No matter, my flirting days are through (thank god!)
Oh and if you are gonna show Wyatt anything, make sure he sees the horror of blimps.

Now we really need to get back to the important discussion of decent pizza on the north shore. Haverhill is the black hole of pizzadom!
Ya din’ send flowers with a card saying just “10” didja?
Just checkin’ on ya … abject romantics not-so-anonymous style …
Hey, Wyatt, it’s not the Patrick Stewart bald thing so much as…yummmm…Patrick Stewart. Ponytails are just fine, too. I like hair on men. Hated to have to make my son cut off his ponytail, but I figured it’ll be less of a shock when he goes in the Air Force in a few months and they take care of the Hair Problem for him.
tanookie, maybe we should just send Wyatt to the Teemings Extras page. Then his mortgage company can just repo his house right up front since they know they’ll be getting it shortly anyway.
uh oh::looking up the “come and get it now” number for the mortgage company:: Hope the homeless shelter has Cable modem or DSL, I can’t get it at my house!
BTW: I got the horror of blimps story a while back … but din know it came from here … found here in other ways, fate, I tell you, fate! …
… don’t know how to do a proper link, but my responses to the famous Blimp story are in the last post on October’s thread…

Oh the shock! I cannot believe I’ve never read “the horror of blimps” before! ROFL Thankfully I’m a SAHM and can read in between chasing my boys… unfortunatly they were sleeping when I read that. You’ll notice the emphasised word in that sentance.
Well, I’m 5’10" and the missus is a shade under 5’3", and she’s pretty much at the lower limit of what I would feel comfortable with, height-wise. Any shorter, and I don’t think we’d even be able to hold hands while walking down the street. But that’s just me. I always thought I’d end up marrying somebody 5’7" or taller, but the heart wants what the heart wants.
You don’t like Pizzeria Regina, the quintessential Boston thin crust pizza? Heretic! Ah well, maybe you should give Beantowne Pizza a pass after all.
As for Malden, we recently got an 11-year-old townhouse just a few blocks from the center of town (a block and a half from the aforementioned Beantowne Pizza). You’ll excuse me if I don’t mention the exact address here on the Internet. I(t’s a good address, though. The missus works downtown and we’re only a few of blocks away from the Maden Center “T”. We’re off on a quiet side street, which is also nice…

Wow 'zilla… hubby and I would look like freaks to you then
I’m 5’5" in good shoes and he’s 6’4" when he doesn’t slouch.
Gal-durnit! I want good pizza!
Well, I wouldn’t say “freaks,” but I’ll admit I’ve always been amazed to see very short women with extremely tall guys. It’s purely a personal preference, however, and not a comment on how things “should” be. I just really, really, like looking at my SO face-to-face without having to bend over.
On a side note, my father and younger brother are also 5’10", and we’ve all married women who are 5’3". My older brother is 6’1" and he married a woman who is 5’6". A meaningless coincidence, but we’ve all married women 7" shorter than us. My sister is 5’7", so we’re all waiting to see if she ends up marrying somebody who is 6’2"…
