Alot closer to what I meant, although I can't say I would be all too impressed by someone who dropped their food on me. I can only wonder as I try to envision the scene, how food was misdirected from your mouth to your date...oh, wait! I am going to stop trying to envision that now.

The problem was, I didnt really know it was out of character for her. Naturally most of co-workers, including one older female knew exactly what she was doing.
What can I say? I was 22-23, hadnt really given that much though to that particular part of the female paradigm, I was working long hours at night and...as I've said, was pretty blind.

Not so sure where I stand on it now that it has all been thrown out the window...
Well....let me just say....complete one-eighty?

It was in the school canteen and the food was on the table. I reached to pick it up and well..........

He's married, what does he know?

An Obvious tip:

'Invasion' of the space works best in clubs. The music is loud, you've got a perfectly good excuse to make your way in, to speak into the ear. Keep that going for 5-10 mins, and the chick's cool about letting you in.

As an optimist...No story to tell is better than having a nightmarish one...

The title of this thread is U-505 and I keep thinking it's about a sub. Not tonsil hockey.

If you want to beat it out of him, you'd have to go the extra mile. He's probably trained to endure torture and not let out secrets.

You need to go third degree on him.

In the spirit of the U-505 thread that got trashed, you hold him down while I go get the tickling feather.

Of course he is - He's married. That's a basic marriage survival skill.

Oh, For Crying Out Loud...You Have A CD With Them All On It, You Know There Are More!! (TH has been asking me to post the rest for a week now, but I just keep forgetting and when I remember I am too tired or at work and don't have them.)

So here, my darling TopHatter, are more pictures from the little boat display at the museum:

First...the 1st picture is not actually of the U-505 or even near the U-505 exhibit. It is an unidentified object.....Can Anyone Help Us ID This, Please?
