    C'mon, let's be honest- I bet you all want me to get divorced so this nonsense starts happening to me in real life.

    Well, one way to look at is...at least you would be rejected by a "variety" of women, rather than just one.
    So it would be something new rather than repetitive. ;)

    BONUS: There IS the "chance" that she MAY have sex with you. (for good or bad)
    And that doesn't seem to be something that's happening now.

    Something is better than nothing.
    That's my Pointless Advice. :D

    Sir, I know you...you're not ugly...we ALL know you're creative and funny. You're a good father. Kind. Considerate.
    And wear a hell of a hat and are willing to go on adventures.

    I know a ton of women who "say" they'd want that.
    Sooner or later, you'd find one that you'd not drive crazy and she'd not drive you crazy...and you'd want to stick around with each other.

    BONUS #2: You've already had your kid...and she's a very nice person. So you wouldn't "have to" have that as a criteria for dating. (something I want and I'm stuck with and hope to resolve :oops:)

    So...whatcha waitin' for?
    Go on an adventure. :cool:

    Don't really expect people to understand when you tell them there are unrealistic expectations. :rolleyes:

    The road to hell is paved with Unrealistic Expectations. Or something like that.

    Words not to be ignored:

    I smell smoke.
    I can't breathe.

    Cocktail advice:

    Gatorade and vodka is not a sports drink.
    Creme de menthe and V-8 is a crime.

    Mathematical:

    5.2 is not a reasonable approximation of infinity.
    There are an infinite number of incorrect answers to every math problem.

    Anagrams:

    Listen and silent have the same letters.
    Diapers and despair do also.

    People:

    Opinions are like a**holes. Everyone's got one.
    If you hear the word 'no', it means I can't, I won't, or I don't know how.

    Love:

    Love at first site is matter of timing, not the actual people involved .
    Happy marriage is a matter of semantics.

    I figure you are waiting until you know it’s something yr Youngling wants for you so you can be happy. My only hesitation re that scenario is that your bitterness/acerbic reaction will end up making her too unhappy first. That could then backfire on you. But I do enjoy the fallout you share w your photoshop assemblies :)

    What the F? Net neutrality, is the FCC and ISPs going to start censoring what is available? Or charge me for frequently visited sites?

    That is certainly a possibility if Trump's FCC, chaired by a former Verizon lobbyist, get their way and kill net neutrality.

    Yep, the big ISPs have promised it won't happen but that I don't believe it for a second.

    Comcast deleted net neutrality pledge the same day FCC announced repeal

    In other words, this no longer applies at Concast

    When you encounter wildlife, leave it alone. Don't try to make it move, or jump, or fly. Just watch, and if that's not good enough for you, then move on to something more your speed.

    Part 2 of the above - teach kids to do this. Especially.

    Kids in AK get pretty casual with wildlife because they see it all the time in their backyards and no matter how hard you try they will slip up.
    I'll never forget coming home from work and finding my daughters (12/7) feeding a bull moose vegetables from the fridge, off the back porch of our trailer.
    14,000 pounds of moose casually eating lettuce from my daughters hands.
    I had to be very calm and get them in the house without spooking the moose.

    Whoops, that would be a little big even by our standards.
    Somehow managed to add a zero, 1,400.
