Phaedrus

Actually, it'd be nice to be able to comment on someone's post without adding to their reputation - it's a minor inconvenience when you can't do this because you've recently given the same reputation on another post... And when you're quoting, make sure to leave all the square brackets in place. This is what happens when you accidentally chop one off :)

I had the pleasure of meeting Katherine on her recent visit to Ottawa. Booking was very painless, and chatting by email heightened the anticipation; so I was really looking forward to our upcoming encounter by the time I showed up at her hotel suite. To say I wasn't disappointed would be an understatement... the reality was way more than I'd bargained for! I was greeted by a vision in a very sexy dress, and welcomed like an old friend. We sat and chatted for a bit, and got to know each other... until things got a lot hotter and conversation... er... ceased. Quite suddenly :) From there it wasn't long until the couch was no longer the most comfortable place to be. In blink-and-you'll-miss-it time the dress was gone and I was given a beautiful view of Katherine's toned body, and then it was back to getting more closely acquainted. And I'm not sure how long that took, but it was a lot of fun, and included some unexpected - but awesome - surprises ;) And after that there was time to lie around and chat some more, until all too soon it was time to go... but hopefully Katherine will be back to see us again before too long!

What the hell is that on her head? Anyway... Nubia (now southern Egypt/northern Sudan). Here is a Nubian having a fight with a lion. Alas, he doesn't appear to be doing too well...

OD, you should get some of this in next time you're entertaining...

So it was an arranged marriage, then? You owe your marriage broker a beer or three :) For today, I'm also going to nominate someone I've never met, although I'd love to do so if we ever end up within a reasonable distance of each other... Samantha Evans. I've always been hugely impressed by the wisdom and good sense she brings to the board, by her support for everyone else here, and the excellent advice she gives out when requested. Long may it continue!

If we're going with random numbers... The Stranglers - 96 Tears

Nottingham. I was googling for pics of the Sheriff of Nottingham, and this turned up... I have no idea why, but I'm not complaining.

Hugs to you, Malika! I posted this elsewhere yesterday, but I think it ought to be here, too... http://calmingmanatee.com/

Yes you do. Your conscious mind may skip past them without a second thought, but we're all nevertheless picking up on them and storing that information away, somewhere. And at some point it'll bubble up again... I'll freely concede that a banner ad alone isn't going to seal the deal - but if the fact that it's in the hindmost recesses of your mind means you click on one profile rather than another.... well who's to say it's not worthwhile? There's a *lot* about advertising that's not all that well understood...

I hate you, Blizzard. I hate you. I've just spent all winter playing Skyrim, and I've been studiously ignoring all the D3 pre-release stuff, and now.... I'm finding it very hard to carry on ignoring it. Could you all tell me it's buggy as hell and completely unplayable and I should wait a few months for the issues to be patched? Please?

...everyone. Sometimes, we all need a calming manatee.

Isn't that the "I'm very sorry.... that I got caught" face?

So, I'm not sure how Cleo has been overlooked so far, but this clearly needs to be fixed :) She's outrageously sexy, smart, awesome tattoos... and awsome posts here, too!

If you can host, you can probably get someone to come for an outcall. But there will undoubtedly be a charge for the distance...

I'm not claiming to be any sort of authority on this, but... I'd have thought not, and it may well be unnecessary anyway. If someone's looking at your profile and sending you a friend request, they're probably already at least somewhat interested :) Probably depends what you say :) If you PM them (or post on their wall) to just say, "Thanks for looking at my profile" or something, I think that's fine (and there are ladies that do this). And saying something like, "PM me if you have any questions" is probably also OK. But something like, "Come and see me" probably isn't. Very wise. Unfortunately this is one of those things where there's a lot of gray areas as to what's acceptable and what isn't... There have been threads on this in the past...
