  1. No you were right the first time. According to this handy colour chart, purple is a colour: Guys, you should print this chart out and keep it in your wallet so that you'll know when a lady says "Please hand me the spindrift cami" you'll have a chance, albeit slim, of handing her the right one.
  2. Technology has a way of making people dependent on it because either they forget how to do something themselves or they never bother to learn in the first place. How many people can make toast without a toaster? If self-parking becomes common, as it likely will, Jabba you'll worry less about your son parking your car and more about the people parking next to you in some parking lot driving an older car that they borrowed from someone that doesn't have the feature that they are dependent on.
  3. Like RG, I'm reluctant to buy clothes for any lady - there's a 99% chance that I won't get the size, color, style, etc. right and it will end up in the same place that we put all the ties that we received as gifts - in a dark closet next to the animated talking fish trophy. Here's a fun video showing the perfect gift for a lady of any age: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqyT1Yn08t0&list=SPqhOLoL7F7JBHl-RuNeTHMSfxvQBgLaSF&index=6

  5. Great list Vitto, thank you for sharing. Do any ladies in the world find a English Canadian accent sexy?

If you phrased it something like "I've just taken a shower before coming over but I'd be pleased to take another if you'd like me to", and who knows the lady may join you to make sure you are clean all over :) On to my question: Why do most ladies ads list all their physical stats (height, age, weight, measurements, eye color, etc.) but others are silent on most or all of this?

I won't know for sure what I will or will not do in that case - I'm taking a wait-and-see position not wanting to find a solution for a problem that may never exist. I am pretty sure that should it happen, I'll be looking for a naked housekeeping service to come over and clean & polish everything in my house - especially the pipes because they can get quite plugged up.

  10. Sorry to answer your question with a question, but is your choice of user name intended to be humorous or are you pretending to be Rob Ford?
  11. I agree with you about not posting a social rate - that would theoretically make the option available to anyone and everyone, and you should be choosy about who you spend your time with. Charging for a dinner date wouldn't be out of line, and since you have to eat sometime anyway why not enjoy a fine meal with a gentleman paying for it albeit at a lower rate or perhaps as a package deal (dinner + me for desert, I choose the restaurant, 3 hours total only $$$).
  12. [URL]http://www.itbusiness.ca/news/tim-hortons-security-loophole-could-lead-to-theft-in-mobile-payments-pilot[/URL] [URL="http://www.timhortons.com/ca/en/"][COLOR=#0066cc]Tim Hortons Inc.â??s[/COLOR][/URL] new mobile app, TimmyMe, is prone to a security loophole that allows someone to create barcodes online to steal the money from customersâ?? gift cards. Tim Hortons launched the TimmyMe mobile payments app in December 2013, which allows users to connect their gift cards to their app and then pay with the app at the cash register. As long as an attacker has a gift cardâ??s 16-digit number, he can generate barcodes for these gift cards, scan them at a Tim Hortons cash register, and charge gift cards bought by another person. The Android and iOS versions of the mobile payments app are currently in pilot mode, being accepted at only 55 Tim Hortons locations across southern Ontario. When reached for comment, Tim Hortons had this to say in an email: â??We are aware of this issue as this is something that affects almost all retailers currently accepting mobile barcode gift card payments. We are currently in a very small pilot market which helps control the exposure unlike some of our competitors who are widely using this same technology throughout North America. We are very pleased to let you know that we have developed a secure solution which will be in place in the very near future, prior to Tim Hortons full roll-out.â? [URL="http://www.ibm.com/ca/en/"][COLOR=#0066cc]IBM Corp.[/COLOR][/URL], which developed the TimmyMe mobile app for Apple iOS and Google Android, also responded with a comment via email. â??IBM has identified an approach that would allow Tim Hortons, during this pilot, to address the exposure. IBM continues to develop and invest in mobile solutions that will help our clients address this technology gap.â?
  13. I'm always sincere and never say something that I don't mean. If I say I'm going to get in touch I will barring something that prevents me from doing so like going to the hospital, but then I would make contact ASAP afterwards. I'm sure that a few guys are like kids in a candy store - they find an amazing piece of candy that they are sure they will savour, only on the way to the checkout they find a piece of candy that they think they might like better, not even having tried the first piece.
  14. That's an amazing story. With a metal fence so close to the birdbath it's bound to happen again, you might be able to put a non-metal cap on it like a garden hose held on with zip ties or have a squirt bottle that you can fill with warm water to spray at the birds feet to melt the ice.
  15. Offices are just school yards for adults - gossip happens weather it is overt or clandestine. Your having a SO, or someone that you want to be your SO completely changes things. No, you're not crazy for passing on this opportunity, and if you handled it correctly with something like "If it weren't for the fact that I have a girlfriend..." the door is still open should things not work out with the other lady.
  16. I'm more clueless than the average bear. What does it mean when after a session an SP asks "Can I put your number in my phone"?
  17. A massage, and especially chatting over a beverage are the best parts of a session! Now that you made me think of it, next time I'm going to do my best to blow fast so I'll have more time for the good parts!
  18. What surprised me the most is that most SPs are very intelligent women doing what they love because they love to do it, on their own terms and in their own way. I've learnt that age is only a number, and so-so photos (especially "selfies") can be taken of stunning gals - this and so many, many other things I've learnt have substantially increased the number of women I would consider on a dating site.
  19. What sort of dating advice do you have? Here some things I've found so far: [COLOR=blue]Dating advice for engineers: â??The first rule of dating is to be yourself -- Thatâ??s not going to work for you.â? Thatâ??s the key to this videoâ??s advice on dating for engineers:[/COLOR] [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mUFXFe765I#t=168"][COLOR=blue]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mUFXFe765I#t=168[/COLOR][/URL] [COLOR=blue][/COLOR] [COLOR=blue][/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]Dating advice for women engineers: [/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]By Cherish The Scientist on July 12, 2012 [/COLOR] [URL="http://work.failblog.org/2012/06/22/job-fails-engineer-logic/"][COLOR=blue][IMG]http://engineerblogs.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/448x323xjob-fails-engineer-logic2.jpeg.pagespeed.ic.zqtxm5-KSw.jpg[/IMG][/COLOR][/URL] [COLOR=blue][/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]My husband sent me a link featuring a video covering dating advice for engineers. I want to start by saying that the video was very amusing, so the following is in no way meant as disparaging. [/COLOR] [COLOR=blue][/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]However, it was also very guy-centric, and I wondered what sort of dating advice might be useful for female engineers (which, the video says, are hypotheticalâ?¦like Bigfoot).[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue][/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]So my advice would be:[/COLOR] [LIST] [*][COLOR=blue][B]Ignore any guy who says that female engineers are unattractive. Heâ??s just bitter because he canâ??t find a date.[/B] Itâ??s karma. Heâ??s probably also an engineer.[/COLOR] [*][COLOR=blue]Youâ??ll probably want to date another engineer, or maybe a scientist. Otherwise you wonâ??t have anything to talk about. (Well, maybe if you have hobby in common. HAM radio, anyone?) And saying things like â??Higgs Bosonâ? will be just fine.[/COLOR] [*][COLOR=blue]Youâ??ll probably want to date another engineer because, given your salary, youâ??re likely to make a non-engineer somewhat jealousâ?¦unless heâ??s a lawyer or doctor, but then you run into the conversation problem again.[/COLOR] [*][COLOR=blue]Ask your friends for advice on clothesâ?¦but donâ??t wear anything that doesnâ??t make you comfortable. [B]If youâ??re dating an engineer, donâ??t worry about your clothes.[/B][/COLOR] [*][COLOR=blue][B]Itâ??s perfectly fine to ask a guy out.[/B] If heâ??s the shy, nerdy type, thereâ??s a chance heâ??ll really appreciate it. If heâ??s an engineer, heâ??s probably also clueless and anything more subtle will be off his radar.[/COLOR] [*][COLOR=blue]Donâ??t date any guy who seems jealous of your career or other men. Think about it: youâ??re surrounded by men all the timeâ?¦how will he deal?![/COLOR] [*][COLOR=blue][B]Make sure that if you enjoyed the date, you tell him youâ??d like to see him again.[/B] If heâ??s engineer, itâ??s probably a good idea to tell him specifically when and where otherwise he may not take the hintâ?¦or heâ??ll assume you mean immediately.[/COLOR] [/LIST] [COLOR=blue]Just so you know, I checked with my husband, who is also an engineer, and he verified that my advice about dating male engineers was sound.[/COLOR] Additional Comments: [COLOR=blue]Speed dating for engineers: Watch as civil engineer Khai suffers through a round of speed dating, trying to explain what being an engineer is to women who are otherwise uninterested.

  20. Just to gross everyone out - a different kind of earworm: Fly larva crawls inside woman's ear By Rachael Rettner Published February 13, 2014 LiveScience A woman in Taiwan had an unusual cause of her ear pain: a fruit fly larva was wriggling around inside her ear canal. The 48-year old woman went to the emergency room after experiencing severe ear pain for a day, according to a new report of the case. Doctors removed the woman's hearing aid, and saw bloody fluid in her ear. An exam revealed a fruit fly larva moving around in her ear canal, and the skin close to her eardrum was eroded, according to the doctors at Tri-Service General Hospital, in Taipei. Doctors removed the larva, and the woman received topical antibiotics. Her ear pain went away immediately, and two weeks later, her ear canal had healed, the report said. [Video: Fly Larva Crawls in Woman's Ear] Dr. Richard Nelson, an emergency medicine physician at Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, who was not involved in the woman's case, said he has seen several types of insects in human ears, but not fruit fly larva. In the emergency department, such critters are typically removed with forceps, or with irrigation using water or saline, Nelson said. In some cases, doctors use mineral oil or lidocaine gel to reduce the patient's pain as well as to suffocate the insect, Nelson said. As a live insect crawls down the ear canal, it may touch the ear drum and cause pain, but usually does not perforate the ear drum, Nelson said. Still, infections are a concern when insects enter the ear, Nelson said. Cockroaches are the most common insect Nelson has seen in patient's ears they crawl into the ear at night. "They tend to run toward small dark places, which fits the description of the ear," Nelson said. Over the years, Nelson has learned not to tell patients that they have an insect in their ear until it's removed. "Some people just really get freaked out if you tell them they've got something live in their ear," which makes it difficult to remove, Nelson said. Infections with fly larva are known as myiasis, and are most common in tropical and subtropical areas, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
  21. They don't teach common sense in school anymore. A few years ago I was trying the online dating thing. I took a girl I met online to a classy establishment for a first meeting "get to know you is there any spark" glass of wine and desert type date. A waitress that was serving another section passed by and commented "Good to see you again, what happened with the pretty girl you were here with yesterday?" (my previous get to know date).
