admin — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 04:37:02 +0000

I brought my daughter and sister out for dinner last weekend. I have a very good chat with my sister who still is a single at that day. She had apart with ex-boyfriends almost a year but still has not meet another right man yet.

She told me everyone is asking her when she gets would marry and she found this kind of question is very annoying. I understand how she feels, I all of the people does wish to find a person who really care and love us. However, I advice her not to be hurry just to find a person to love. There are many nice person out there, she should select one that is really love her and care about her.

If she worry has no time to meet with new friends, then she probably should find truly compatible singles with Perfect Match, eHarmony.com Match.com. I believe she could meet someone that match with her. There are quite many online dating website actually. I think she could try to learn more about online dating services now. Moreover, I am going to remind her to read those articles like matchmaking Slump and Love Twenty-First Century Style, so that she could be familiar with online dating services.

First Date With Delta Papa

admin — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 01:37:17 +0000

I met Delta Papa on last Sunday night, the 22nd. I had a bad feeling about for the past few days after I talked to her on the phone. Let’s say the voice on the other side of the phone didn’t sound like the person in the Match.com profile picture. She sounded like she was 300 pounds, mush mouth and drowsy. And she just talked as if she was over-thinking everything. Over-thinking like at first we just wanted to meet up real casual just to say hit. She offered a movie, but since it was late Sunday night she had concerns there’d be nothing open after the movie where we could just sit down and talk. WTF? I don’t like to over-think things openly so I said let’s play it by ear. Her concern was a real turn off. And when someone doesn’t sound really enthusiastic on the phone, it doesn’t help things.

So it’s obvious I wasn’t looking forward to meeting up.

So we met up in front of Barnes and Noble and walked over to Cheesecake Factory. I was pleasantly surprised with what I saw. First of all, it seems not many people put an update photo with their profile. That’s infuriating. In her photo, she’s a long-haired red head. In person, it’s much shorter, more brown and she wears glasses. BUT she’s tall and thin (she’s a bit taller than me with her heels which I think is sexy), no where near the 300 lb behemoth her voice sounded like on the phone. Nice skin. Nice boobs. Caboose was proportionate to her tall frame.

We took a seat at a table near the bar. She said she wasn’t that hungry so I took the lead and just ordered a popcorn shrimp appetizer. She just had a water so I didn’t want to look like a lush so I just ordered a Coke. The bread came and she mentioned that she has this brain allergy for wheat gluten, but the only thing that happens is that if she has too much she gets drowsy, like when you eat turkey. She said she wasn’t hungry, but after a few minutes, devoured most of the bread and really got into the popcorn shrimp.

She took a bit to warm up. She talks with this drowsy, mush mouth drawl like she has braces or a retainer on (which she doesn’t have). She’s a tomboy nerd. She used to be into World of Warcraft and now she’s getting into poker. She does software development so the geek thing is right up my alley. But the socially deficient nerd thing is a turn off. I really want a girly girl I can dress up at Express or something so likes cute shoes.

So we talked for a bit. The more she talked, the more she relaxed and opened up. I would really like to jump her bones and go to town on her breasts, but that’s beside the point. I wasn’t feeling her as a potential date, but I’d still love to see her again as friends and at least get some practice in the batting cage. It was late Sunday so we thought we hit up the bar upstairs to keep talking. The bar was closed so we just called it a night and I left her with a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

I’ve been keeping in touch via texts and instant messages. Fast forward to YESTERDAY. I’m taking off a couple more days from work so I’m just doing nothing and vegging out all week. She called me up and asked if I wanted to join her for lunch at Ruby Tuesdays. She bought me lunch and it was nice to just talk. She’s still weird, almost socially stunted. or at least not hip with the same social circles as me.

She’s not my cup of tea. Just a little too strange and weird.

2008 Olympic Trials Day Four

admin — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 17:14:31 +0000

Men’s 800

Of all the many, many incredible aspects to last night’s men’s 800 final (probably number one on the list: that picture), one thing that I keep thinking about is just how far the event has come over the course of the last year. At last year’s nationals LetsRun did a live Internet broadcast on Talkshoe, and in between events I came on to chat with Robert. The first round of that year’s 800 had been run earlier that day, and we got to talking about the state of the event as it stood at the time.

Basically our entire conversation revolved around trying to figure out what had happened to the 800. 2004 and 2005 were transitional years for the event, but they pointed toward a strong future. The most notable aspect of the ‘04 Trials was David Krummenacker’s failure to earn an Olympic spot, but beyond that it was Jonathan Johnson’s surprise victory in 1:44.77. JJ was only a junior in college in 2004. The next year Kevin Hicks ran 1:44.94 at NCAAs and went on to make Worlds. Khadevis Robinson and Krum were both still at top form. By the time Nick Symmonds emerged in 2006, JJ and Hicks had fallen off the radar. Going into the 2007 meet, the field basically consisted of KD, Symmonds (by then a legit star), and little else. Lopez Lomong and Duane Solomon stepped up huge at USATFs, but there were precious few American 800 runners who could be counted on to run 1:45 consistently, when in years prior there could be four to five collegians at that level.

The reason last night’s race was so dramatic — other than the simple fact that Olympic spots were on the line — was that all eight runners in the field came into the race running at their best, or at least very close to it. There’s no greater evidence of this than the fact that Khadevis Robinson ran his style of race from beginning to end and finished fourth. In past years KD was able to run away from the field at USATFs. Occasionally someone like JJ would meet KD’s challenge, but he was always assured of a top three spot. In post-race interviews, KD was openly wondering where it was that he went wrong during his preparations, but really all that happened was the rest of the country caught up to him. Instead of being ten meters clear with 100 to go, KD had the entire field on his heels.

A year ago KD was cruising to another national title. Even at indoor USATFs, the 800 was little more than a match race between KD and Symmonds. A year ago Andrew Wheating was doing nothing more than getting ready for his sophomore year at Oregon. Christian Smith was God knows where. (Actually you could say that for Christian dating back to about one week ago.) Today they’re Olympians, which says everything you need to know about the state of the US men’s 800 in 2008.

5000

In a normal night the men’s 5000 would have easily been the most exciting race on the track. After all, with 100 meters to go, there were five guys fighting for the three Olympic spots. (Okay, there were four guys fighting for two Olympic spots after Bernard Lagat turned on the jets.) The clear surprise in this race was the pacing. With Adam Goucher in the field not having hit the Olympic A standard, the consensus was that he wouldn’t allow the pace to lag. Well, Brent Vaughn took it out hard, but he was completely on his own as Goucher sat in the back. So much for that.

When Solinsky started pushing the pace over the course of the last kilometer, I figured he was fine. After all, his entire college career was filled with races where he took the lead like that and squeezed the life out of the field. Obviously things are a little different when it’s Bernard “Kip” Lagat that’s lurking behind you rather than Richard Kiplagat, but given how strong Solinsky looked at Pre, holding off Ian Dobson and Bolota Asmerom didn’t seem to be too tall of a task.

But Matt Tegenkamp and Dobson managed their energies a little better over the course of the last lap. My stomach was in my throat when Teg almost fell with 150 to go, but he managed to recover without losing any ground. The fact that he made the team in what was for him probably an average race at best bodes well for him in Beijing. As for Dobson, it’s easy to say that all he did was bide his time smartly, simply sitting and kicking. But to me it looked like he was doing all he could to respond to Solinsky’s surges, and by the time the last hundred rolled around, he was finally able to look up and go for broke. Dobson’s race was much tougher than it looked. With all due respect to Solinsky and Asmerom, the US is definitely sending its best possible team to Beijing.

Women’s 800

I don’t have a whole lot to say about this race. My overall impression of it was that it was very strange. The fact that there were twelve women in the final had a dramatic impact on how everything played out, what with the entire field setting off in a full-out sprint to avoid a waterfall catastrophe, and with a few women running virtually their entire races in lane two. Then, after a blazing first 600, the last 200 was a competition of who could die the least. Hazel Clark won easily even though she barely even made it to the finish line. Just weird.

I suppose this is as good a place as any to say that I’m against the new format that requires the athletes to hit the A standard by the time the Trials is over, rather than giving runners who place in the top three without having yet hit the standard opportunties throughout the summer to chase it. Maybe I’m just averse to change, but it seems to me that the goal should be to peak for the Olympic games. If you place in the top three at the Trials, then hit the A standard at some point before the games, I can’t think of any reason why you shouldn’t be able to join the team.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to do some deep soul searching over the possiblity of Jaromir Jagr becoming a Penguin again.

Myspace Freaks Me Out

admin — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 07:07:09 +0000

well, not really myspace, but the match.com ads that are all over the place in myspace.

they show these hot guys chatting online with someone, and you’re watching from the vantage point of their computer camera. i actually paid attention to a few, and realized the “script” is the same. they stop by their computer to check into match.com i guess. see that someone’s there, smile real big, look slightly flirtatious, type something. then back up. then read, smile again, take off their hoodie/jacket/whatever, sit down, and start typing away.

it’s the oddest thing. makes me feel like an internet voyeur or something. and i didn’t even ASK to see him!

how can i get this man to stop flirting with me through my computer?!

Christian Advice On Dating Places

admin — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 04:01:51 +0000

Christian dating is one of the things that parents watch out for their children. Christian teens are not excempted dating and parents even set rules to guide their teens. One christian dating advice to seek is the place to date. When they choose for a date-night location, they are not just facing romance and fun but temptations that can lead to sexual behavior which are against Christian norms. Since it is advisable for them to date in public, here are tips on christian dating places:

Match.com really is the standard by which all other online dating sites are judged, because it is the biggest online dating website and the oldest. It also seems to attract fewer weirdos than some other sites.

When you find someone you are interested in, you can either send them an email (if you are a paying member) or a wink (this is for both those who are paid members and those who are free members). When you give a wink, you are only letting the person know you are interested. You are not sending them any type of personal message. On Match.com, I like to send a wink first, and then if I get a wink back, I’ll write an email and maybe even comment about that wink.

Go directly to Match.com here

What makes Match.com such a good online dating site is the number of users. Because it’s brand name is so well known, many people will try it first before any other internet dating service, so this increases the dating pool tenfold. On the flip side, this can work against you, because the women on Match.com are getting so many emails each day from guys all over the country.

I would give Match.com a solid four out of five stars. The high number of ads are a bit annoying, and I get a bit impatient when changing my profile, since it doesn’t show up right away (you have to wait 48 hours). But this is something you’re going to find on virtually all online dating sites.

Match.com is definitely worth giving a try

Create Your Ideal Job And Let The Employers Come To You

admin — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 12:29:43 +0000

As a candidate, I have spent many hours searching for the ideal job; does the job have the benefits I want, the salary, the commute, the environment, these are not easy questions to find the answer to either. Anyone who has searched for a job at anytime in his or her life knows the struggle.

Often times people end up settling for a job that may not offer what they would ideally like to have. Sometimes your ideal job is not available at the time that you are looking for it, or maybe you searched 100 different job sites, but the job was on the 101st. A better way to go about finding your ideal job is to outline it while your employed at your current job. This way you can wait for the job to come to you.

On Paidinterviews you can do just that, just use our ideal job platform to outline your interests, then we notify you when an employer is offering what you are looking for. And best of all, after the job interview, you will be paid the amount that you had specified as your interview ask price.

Christian Teen Dating Advice And Rules

admin — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 07:13:31 +0000

Rules for Christian dating are common among parents. They set rules for their children to guide them and also give limitations that are based on Christian belief. Though parents set these rules to guide their children, they also need to discuss it with them for them to understand why these rules are set. Here are some Christian dating advice and rules that parents may want to use:

Age - parents set the time when their children could actually dating. Usually when they become legal adults or 18 years old. While others allow their children to date after finishing school. Yes, it still exist even up to now
Double Date - if not mandatory, it is most suggested for Christian dating. If they cannot have a double date, have a chaperone at least. This will make them more responsible. But be sure that the other couple or the chaperone share the same beliefs with yours and will not tolerate your child’s actions.
Date in a Public Place - Christian teens should date in a public place where parents feel safer for their children. In some cases, parents would even drive them to dating place or require them to date in a place where there are Christians as well.
Date With a Christian - It is stated in the Bible, Christian teens should date with a fellow believer. Not just a Christian, but one who shares your values, practices, and beliefs.
No Pre-marital Sex - This is not just a rule among parents or for Christian teens alone but for all Christians. But parents should also discuss it with their children to make them understand.
Curfew - Parents can set a specific curfew for their teens. This is to prevent them from staying out late and keep them safe as well.

Can I Kiss You?

admin — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 05:26:45 +0000

It has come to my attention that a few of my friends do NOT like it when they’re on a date and a guy asks, “Can I kiss you?” or even just says, “I’d like to kiss you now.” I’ve actually heard that from various women over the years, that a guy shouldn’t ask or say anything about it beforehand, he should just do it. But why? I guess for some women, asking makes him seem like a wimp or something, or it makes the moment more awkward, or ruins the moment. But I don’t mind at all — in fact, I think it’s kind of sweet.

I also think that I personally do better with a bit of a warning. One of the first guys I met on Match.com last year was saying good-bye to me at Port Authority Bus Terminal after our first date, and after we hugged good-bye, I stepped away, he got this weird look in his eyes, and suddenly he was kissing me. I was VERY caught off guard, to say the least. It was the middle of the day (it had been a lunch date), and believe me, Port Authority is hardly the most romantic spot in the world, so I’m not sure what moment he was caught up in. But here’s the best part: after that, he never called me again! One of my friends suggested he was testing to see if there was chemistry and decided there wasn’t any. But maybe there would have been, if I’d been a little prepared!

By the way, if you’re out of practice here’s a web site with step-by-step instructions on how to kiss:

What do you think? Should a guy ask for a kiss?
