Egads! Sounds like we need to give you a crash course to improve your film knowledge.

There are a few people who felt this way when they've seen the pics of the new Beast's Castle.
"It's only a model."
How can you forget the Genius that is Eric Idle?! Ok, true, His gig in the Imagination institute is kind of.... meh... but you can't blame him for the crappy job Imangineering did in butchering that pavilion.

Double your geekdom, double your fun.
I didn't forget Eric. Its just that John Cleese and Michael Palin have been more prominent in making movies that are more "Monty Pythonish".
Just checking in my solo pals and saw this interesting thread while I was watching The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
I was just reading through here and thought of a bunch of places that have worked for me to meet men.
I do well at Target. Yes I know Target. I have met two really nice guys at Target. One being the current BF.
I met a guy at jury duty once. He was pretty smart.
Homeless Depot and Blowe's also have lots of men there.
Getting coffee at 7-11.
I meet men in all kinds of places. I think you also have to be open to meeting someone. I always strike up the conversation about the most random things. It always help to just be pleasant and smile.
I once went on a date with a police officer who followed me because when I looked over, I smiled.
Also for Church, if it has two services go to the early one. Men like to be out of church in time for the game.
"There's a shortage of perfect bosom in the world, it would be a shame to ruin yours." - Wesley Princess Bride.
Ahhhh, another Princess Bride fan. Anyway, I just might employ your other tecniques. The real problem is I don't have trouble meeting men. I don't have trouble finding men to date. What I have trouble finding is men that I want to keep around for longer than a couple months. Men. . .just so you know how women are wired. You can be a gorgeous hunk of a man but if you have NOTHING else going for you, we will NOT KEEP YOU AROUND. Talk to us, treat us with respect, tell us you miss us, don't be afraid to be emotional. We like this stuff. It keeps us around. Oh, and guys, don't be afraid to tell us (gently) when we are not being "the woman of your dreams". And never assume we will get physical with you just because you find us physically attractive.
My DD was born in 2000 so 1998ish or so since the last time I have courted a lady. My skills have left me I am afraid, so I kind of understand your issue.
Wow, you used the word "court". . .lol. That sounds like something my grandfather would say. He died in 1981. I find your use of chivalrous terms to be quite awesome. Of course, I am one of the older folk on this board so ya know. . .lol.
That would be a little easier. Women sometimes just seem unapproachable. You never know if they are waiting for a 6ft wrestler boyfried to show up and pound you into the ground like a soda can. Guys... not so much. You pretty much look at us and you have our attention.
Okay, if we act aloof and unapproachable it is because we have been burned many times and just get tired of trying to figure out if you really like us or not. True story. . .I met a man in a 7-eleven. I went into the store to buy a bottle of water and nearly knocked him down in my rush. I apologized and went out to finish pumping my gas. He came out and started up a conversation with me. We ended up dating for quite a while. He introduced me to my church here in Florida that I currently attend. Had I not been able to smile and talk to him, we would have never met and we would never have the friendship we do today. We no longer date, but I have a great friend that will change the oil in my car and check out my car when I think something is wrong. . .lol.
I actually go to a pretty big church and there is a singles group. Perhaps I should actually go to it!
I keep meeting guys who are a little older than I'd like. Send me some of the young ones and I can send you some of the older ones!
I like these ideas!!!
What makes a woman seem approachable? I seem to struggle with looking approachable.
Just smile and talk to everyone. . .You never know when the one you are talking to might be your knight in shining armour.
But that can also be part of the problem. With many guys, every woman who looks at you has your attention. At the same time. While you're standing right next to us.
While I understand that, the truth is that unless you are offering up physical gratification, they really only want to know if you are even slightly interested so that they can have a companion for a nice meal or a movie. The other stuff can be figured out later.
How about Tarantino movies? Coen Brothers? Kevin Smith flix? I kind of like the Castle Antrhax scene....And oh yeah, "bring out your Dead"
Not many single woman in my church. Except much older.
Good luck with the move!
There are also lots of single women at running events. Maybe that is why I enter all these races!
Gadzooks?
Have a good trip.
After seeing a band tonight, not much else for me this weekend. I have 10 yards of mulch to move and still working on my kitchen. And it is time to getmy summer car ready for the road.
Have a great weekend!
1. All great movie guys. I do love what they put out. We were just specifically talking about Monty Python. . .lol.
2. Maybe you need a new church. My church has so many mixed ages that we have trouble keeping track of singles. . .hence my need to put together a singles group.
Ok that one hurt a little. Good burn. I can see you're a little vexed.
Oh I don't think she is vexed. I think it is more a venus v mars affect. You all would like a direct approach such as "Hey, I like you. . .I am interested in getting to know you better". . .we like "wow, you are beautiful and I would love to take you out to dinner". However. . .the line we like can also be interpreted by us as dang I would love to have my way with you. . .do I really have to buy dinner to do that? We women tend to be slightly complicated in that way. Its the wiring. . .
Don't keep looking at the door as if you are expecting someone.
Don't be afraid to make eye contact. Maybe even a head nod as if to say Hi.
If that doesn't get a responce, get up and purposly walk by on your way to the bathroom and give a friendly smile.
This is considered flirting.
This may not work for all guys as not all of us are created equal. Some of us don't get it right away and you have to hit us over the head with a frying pan.
Disclaimer: Haven't dated in over 12 years so may not have a clue how it works anymore.
99.9 percent of the time we are not expecting anyone to come through that door. The truth is we are usually hoping a friend comes along and 1. either stays with us through the conversation and then tells us we are doing good by keeping up the conversation, or 2. tells us to move on. . .stop wasting time. We have no clue what is good for us and what we really need. It just magically happens sometimes that we get it right.
I have a bunch of them. but, i like to use them sparingly. Don't need to blow all my surprises.
Put me into the frying pan group. I never seem to notice when a girl is flirting with me.
Okay frying pan guys. . .hear me out. Please do us the courtesy of at least TRYING to ask us out for a date. We might reject you, but if you don't ask, you will never know if we were interested or not. I know it would be easier if we hit you upside the head with a frying pan but our upbringing taught us that we arent supposed to ask guys out or be the aggressor in any relationship. . .we are the meek ones. Some of use get over this, but most of us still want a knight to come riding up on a white horse and sweep us off our feet. . .cause that is what we were "taught" should happen. . .
). So, no dating life for me. I think the last time I went on a date with someone other than XH was 1997....and XH and I split 3 years ago.
