_ahem_ er… 'scuse me. Hello! Over here!! No, Here! Here! Aw shucks, nevermind. I’m your Poster Child (NPI). If I ever read a post that starts “Posted by Spritle” I just PLOTZ!! Oh, sure, I **try** to flirt. I’ve “accidentally” spilled my hot coffee on some posters’ shirts, “bumped” the post in front of me at a stoplight just to exchange phone numbers and information. I’ve even gone so far to send T-shirts out with my picture on the front with the slogan “Try me on for size.” Nuffin’. I sent in a pic of myself (doctored photo done by a friend for my 30th B-day card) to the people pages, but it wasn’t posted. Yeah, I’m pretty much a woodwork kinda guy. Blending in, Spritle ---

Well I haven’t been here too long so I guess that’s OK. I even started a flirty thread in which people flirted with each other, but not me. Well sort of with Tiburon, but it was mostly really vague innuendo. Heh.

I’ve had my head gnawed off, down to a bloody stub, I might add, so many times for asking stupid questions…some think they are stupid, but If I don’t ask how will I know? Anyhow, I feel relatively safe asking you guys this…where in the heck are the people pages. I’ve looked and looked and so far nothing. A girl, this is a wonderful thread. Seem like real people on here. 🙂 ---

I think that I’ve been mentioned in _one_ thread that I hadn’t already posted in…and that was a DFW Dopers thread about a gathering I didn’t attend. The only flirtations I’ve been involved in have been self-initiated. I’m a nice guy, cheerfully lascivious, and I haven’t posted a pic (trust me, not posting it could only help)…why doesn’t anybody remember me? ☹ I know all of you [sub]well, most of you[/sub], and I can’t imagine why you don’t get flirted with more…especially Zumba. I like pu…I mean, “cats”. 🙂 ---
