I’ve gotten exactly two flirts so far, immediately after I placed my pic on the TM site. Of course, this means I can’t miss this opportunity to post [another link to my profile](http://www.fathom.org/teemingmillions/profiles/auraseer.html). As for off-board communications, I’m AuraSeer on both AIM and Yahoo! Pager. And if any of you regs are in the St. Louis area, drop me a line and I’ll buy you lunch. =B^) * * * Laugh hard; it’s a long way to the bank. ---

Hey! I love email! Send me some! I’m [Mrstrag767@aol.com](mailto:Mrstrag767@aol.com). And yes, ChrisCTP is the sweetie of the SDMB. She’s IM’d a few times, to checkon me, the baby, and generally brighten my day. It is very much appreciated. 🙂 I got a flirty email from someone here once, too, in response to a post I’d put in the older women/younger men thread. He asked if I was married. Well, in my post, I did happen to mention that my husband is 6 years older than me. :::scratching head in puzzlement::: ---

To date, I receive lots of emails concerning the martial arts (I would say 60% of them were “Which martial art should I take?”, probably 30% were “Tips for self defense/fighting”, at the last 10% are flames “Hey loser, learn a real martial art like Tae Bo” 🙂 ). Of course, not all of them necessarily come from people who see my postings here. I use [leontheneon@yahoo.com](mailto:leontheneon@yahoo.com) lots of different places. I also get emails asking if my company is hiring any new game developers/artists (answer: No, not right now, but if you send me your resume I will keep it until we are). * * * What more could you expect from somebody who lets people kick him to the head? ---

SanibelMan, I love that story! Ike and I were talking about Board Members last night and I said, in loud ringing tones, “Well, I like Satan, but he does curse a lot!” That got odd looks, even in New York. ---
