The girls only like me for my state… always the state. ☹

Ack. I forgot about this part. And since I don’t date, I will have to respectfully withdraw my listed crushes to the ranks of “Dude s/he is so damn hot, oh my Lord.”

It’s a _metaphor,_ ya Dope! They’re cold and lonely, and when they think of being with you, they feel warm! Come on, work with me here!

I would formally like to rescind my flirtation with one Mr. **Jack Batty**.

I was unaware that my mere mention of his name in a flirt thread would cause him to be unavoidably dull. I meant him no harm. Hopefully the powers that be will take mercy on him and restore him to his previous condition.

As you were.

😃

Hmmm…Dave dear, farbeit for me to carp, but is THIS what you call stalking me? I mean, I don’t ask for much, but when I am stalked it would be nice if I would at least be mentioned on your serious crush lists.

I mean…REALLY! 🙂

Cheri

And thank you, **DAVEW0071** for your kind mention. I love you too. Because you are a dollface, and a wonderful person. Too bad there is that pesky married thing, but then this is a WHAT IF thread, right? ::huggles::

**Scotti** , I know you’re a redhead as well. I think my subconscious blotted it from my mind for the moment because saying I have a serious crush on two gorgeous redheads would simply make my entire brain melt.

I don’t know what color hair **Tubadiva** has, but if I find out it’s red, I’m going to have an unprecedented breakdown.

Aw, you so sweet.

I think Jenny is a blonde, so you are safe.

In the right light, though, with the sun reflecting off the azure Caribbean waters, as she casually throws her luxuriant mane back over her bared shoulder while perching on the prow of the yacht in her tiger-striped maillot, there are definite reddish tints.

Not that I usually notice that sort of thing, of course.

Ya know, I didn’t want to say it myself… Thanks for clearing that up, **Ike**.

I’d like amend my list to include \*\*UncleBeer, thinksnow, \*\* and **ShibbOleth** , now that I’ve been kissed by one, groped by another and slept with a third.

'Fraid not. She’s quite orange on top as I recall (it might have been auburn or some other reddish-brown, but it was a few years ago) and it’s not dyed. I guess you’re not so safe after all.

I will not partake in the meat of this thread; I just wanted to clarify some misinformation.

As I told you, honey, it’s all about the subtlety. If I just come out yelling “I LOVE SCOTTICHER!” in front of everyone, that would make me a pretty ham-fisted stalker, wouldn’t it?

(And for all the rest of you who are scratching your heads, this is a reference to some email between she and I. Nowhere on these boards - before now - will you find a public reference to me stalking anyone.)

Now sweetie, I DID put a smilie there. I didn’t mean to make anyone think you were REALLY stalking me. [sub]blast[/sub] 🙂
