Nice photos, Diane. I myself have never needed to advertise. 🆒

I will offer a personally created private email to anyone who chooses me… something you can keep and “use” when you think about me 😉

Stats? For those who don’t know me: redhead, green eyes, Irish extraction, Scorpio, native of San Francisco.

In closing, I have just one thought…

nipple jewelry?

Arnold…I hope to meet you at an LA dopers get together (if I’m invited after you guys all know what I’m like now) :eek:  
because I like the way you think. You’re probably the person I’d like second most to meet…

I’ll have what Arnold’s having. 🙂

In your third sentence above, delete “flirter”, insert “nympho” (Shayna, I’m a jealous husband. Got to make these guys think you’re an oversexed perv. Sorry, honey.) 🙂

Yeah…like that’ll drive 'em _away_ 😃

As for the age thing, I notice neither Shayna nor Diane have said who’s older. _I_ know. 😛

Not your best move, Diane!  
At this point, I’d like to promote Opal or Zyada or Sassy or Scotti or GRACE to campaign against Diane. Come on, you can take her down!  
(This doesn’t mean that I’m voting against Diane–I just want to see her have to up the ante! 😛 WHO’S WITH ME??)

The first part is important, the second isn’t. And, I…uhh…don’t expect you to be singing ANYTHING while you’re “fulfilling the terms of my vote” 😉

Not true, Zyada…I flirted with you in Shayna’s birthday thread AND YOU BLEW ME OFF!

Now I quote Shakespeare and hang with Shayna and Grace. 🙂

Certainly not me, DRY-I wouldn’t dream of challenging Diane on this one, and I wouldn’t get far if I did.

Thanks for the thought, though-you are a sweet man!

☹

I’m sorry, Shayna asked me not to flirt in her birthday thread, and since she’s so cool, I wanted to do what she said! Besides, recent events have made it harder than normal for me to keep up with the board, so I’ve had to let some things slide. Believe me, I loved everything you wrote. ::melt::

I don’t consider it advertising, it’s campaigning.

I should have made those lines easier to read between. Insert the words “Growling sweet nasties into your ear” in place of “singing the National Anthem.”

The voice is one of the most erotic tools you can use.

(I’ll save the phone sex offers for later.) 😉

:eek:

Shayna (of all people) asked you not to (of all things) flirt, and you LISTENED??

Shayna asking someone not to flirt is kind of like me asking someone not to quote Shakespeare, or Aha asking someone not to suck up!

I know about the house thing, but this is love (or at least flirting), dammit!

I mean, I still love Grace and Shayna, and I find Diane to be someone I really want to get better acquainted with, too.  
But I also wanted to sing your praises:

“When you do dance, I wish you, a wave o’ the sea, that you might ever do nothing but that” 😉

I love your attitude about campaigning, frankly.

Phone sex?? Not to look a gift horse in the…ahem…mouth, but this is a big step down from the blowjob you’d previously promised…

And thank heaven, fasting, for a good man’s love” 😃

Phone sex is the foreplay of blowjobs.

Or something like that.

I can’t campaign for temptress. I mean, have you taken a look at Diane? The woman has it going on!

Now if you’re looking for someone who’ll go to a sports event and scream like a lunatic, then I’m your gal. I’ll take chicken noodle soup to a sick friend. I’ll cry with you when you’re sad and laugh when you’re happy. But be a temptress? You may as well ask me to sprout wings and fly.

Thanks for the compliment, but come on ladies. I have noticed **a lot** of sexy women on this board!!!

There is room for more than one temptress.

In fact, I motion that we change things a little bit. Instead of a contest, why don’t we form a club and take pledges?

Strut your stuff like a true temptress and you’re in.

You’re a sports fan? You’re just jerking my chain, right?

And here I thought that our attraction was only physical. 😃
