Fatal Attraction

Apparently, the easiest way to make a woman who is a six look like a 10 is to act jealous when your man checks her out.

Instead, it is best to act like you don't even notice her. Just act like everything is normal and cool. Continue to carry on the conversation and he'll think you're the 10.

Junk Mail

I don't know about you, but I get a ridiculous amount of junk mail.

Andy Rooney suggests we take our random junk mail and send it to the credit card companies with the stamped envelopes they enclose when they send us pre-approved applications.

You would basically be sending them junk mail on their dime.

Rooney also suggests to occasionally send the envelope back empty just to keep them guessing.

"Let's help keep our postal service busy since they are saying that e-mail is cutting into their business profits."

It's mean, but it's funny.

Honestly!

The truth hurts. No truer words have ever been spoken.

So should you hold back from telling the truth?

Sometimes telling people the truth motivates them to change for the better. That's why Dr. Phil got so popular. He just tried to tell it like he saw it.

Yet when you tell the truth, the honest truth, you will be criticized for doing so.

If telling the truth is so bad, why do some people get offended when you tell them a little white lie.

Do you say the truth:

"My significant other isn't at the party, because he can't stand you. He thinks you're all a bunch of pretentious losers."

Or the lie:

"My significant other had to work tonight."

Is lying so bad?

If we told the truth all the time, we would have more enemies than friends.

True Dat!

"We were having one of those great first dates you can only have when it's not an actual date." -Carrie Bradshaw, Sex and the City

We've all been there.

Meaning??

"All is fair in love and war."

Is it? For the most part, people can do whatever they want. Nothing is stopping them. Yeah, sure they might have to deal with the consequences later.

But what is fair to you might not be fair to the other person.

Is it fair to have an affair? Well maybe to you. Maybe you needed a break from the everyday as your wife was struggling with the grief of her dead mother. But was it fair of you to turn your back on her?

You can be persistent when it comes to winning a person's heart. It is only fair that you exercise your freedom of speech regarding how you feel. But it is not fair to the other person, when you don't respect their right to say no.

So do you worry about fairness for yourself or the other person?

Hot and cold.

Why is the weather cruel and unusual? Minus 30 for a few weeks, then a few days of plus five and then back down to minus 25.

While I appreciate the warm days, they are just a slight tease. Getting you out of the habit of plugging in your car and always carrying your hat and mitts. Your body might have been getting accustomed to the cold weather, but the warmer weather takes that immunity away. When the cold hits again, it's as shocking as the first time.

Deep Thought!

"None are so hopelessly enslaved as those who falsely believe they are free." - Goethe

Hot or Not?

"Sex appeal is 50 per cent what you've got, and 50 per cent what people think you've got" -Sophia Loren

Motivations

"Women need a reason for having sex. Men just need a place." - City Slickers

Addiction

Love is like cocaine.

It affects a single pathway in the brain that is activated by the hormone dopamine.

Neurologists have compared the brain scans of those in love with those on drugs. It turns out drugs and love activate the same brain regions.

"Romantic love is such a euphoric 'high,' because it produces craving, obsession, compulsion, distortion of reality, emotional and physical dependence, personality change and loss of self-control.

Many psychologists regard romantic love as an addiction -- a positive addiction when your love is returned, a horribly negative fixation when your love is spurned and you can't let go," said anthropologist Helen Fisher.

Waking Life

Do you ever have dreams so intense that they feel real?

You shut your alarm off just so you can see how the dream will end.

It is the most amazing dream you have ever had. When you wake up you feel like you have to tell everyone you know about the dream. And then a little later on that morning, it's like; "Wait a minute. That wasn't a cool dream. That was stupid. What was I thinking?"

How could you have ever got so worked up about such a dream?

But you tell the dream to someone else anyway. Sure, enough they look at you like you are stupid.

Why did you even bother to tell the dream to someone else? Listening to other people's dreams can be boring.

We just can't seem to be able to relate to one another's dreams.

Censorship

"What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?" -High Fidelity

Here kitty, kitty, kitty.

My cat's hobbies include starring out the window, fighting long flowing red ribbons, throwing a ball from foot to foot, sitting in deep thought from the shallow depths of the bathtub, eating and sleeping.

What does she do when I'm not home? I have no idea. She doesn't seem to need me to keep entertained.

In the wild, would my cat's life be any better? What do wild cats do? Dodge traffic, hunt prey, eat, ward off predators - be they human or other animals - and sleep.

Often, when I watch Animal Planet, lions always seem to laze about.

Aside from the threat of real dangers, are wild cats any different from house cats?

Grrr.

C'est la vie.

That expression translates into "life sucks sometimes."

Like when you have plans to get all this work done, but your Internet goes down.

Or you're in a hurry to get to work. You're half way there when you realize you forgot that important report you slaved over all weekend on the kitchen table. You need it for your morning meeting and you have to go back for it.

C'est la vie. Life sucks . . . Sometimes.

Who knows why?

We never learn

"Didn't your mother tell you that sex leads to things like dating?" - Frasier Crane to Roz in an episode of Frasier

Sex Like a Man

How come men will sleep with you and not be interested in a relationship afterwards?

It's insulting to the women men sleep with. Women are not objects for gratification.

How come women can't have sex without forming some kind of deeper attachment? It's in our chemical making. It's called oxytocin and it isn't fair.

Disappearing act!

The greatest mystery in life is where our socks go.

I keep single socks in a drawer in hopes that their missing match will one day return. And sometimes they do.

I have individual socks that go missing for weeks and then show up in the laundry basket unexpectedly one day. The basket had been emptied several times while the sock was MIA. How it suddenly returned? I don't know.

One time a sock showed up inside my winter jacket, even though I typically hang my coat up and it goes no where near my laundry. What was with that? I don't know.

What sort of journeys do our socks go on? What sort of adventures do they have?

Keep your feet on the ground.

Why are we always falling?

We fall in love. We fall out of love. We fall apart. We fall into depression. We fall away. We fall back. We fall in. We can literally or metaphorically fall flat on our face.

What does it mean to fall? It doesn't always lead to bruising.

In my dictionary, there are well over 21 definitions for the word fall.
