Well, she was a comely wench and prone to be supine in an endemic
manner. It was more like temporary gain in another organic arena.

Yes, that's what I did. 'Had suspicions early, too. But how can you
*know* before "the guillotine plummets"? The first 3 or 4 years were
pretty good...well, for the most part.

Sure, rub it in. Ever notice how women can pull the nastiest, most
despicable tricks this side of Hades and then dismiss all with an airy
remark or flippant gesture that includes the middle finger in a
metaphorically sublime but nonetheless real sense?

Yes, but most women define "steadfastness" as "stubbornness". They're
not the same thing.

Men are like lions, tigers, certain anthropoids and other testeed
species of manifest destiny. They like to show the goods so that any
passing female may "cast her ballot accordingly when she goes to the
poles."

That and the fact that puckered lips might have been misinterpreted when
you got older.

Simple observation. If her eyes are crossed and she babbles a lot about
mundane things, she's a dummy. If her legs are crossed and she can
sustain at least a semblance of an intelligent conversation about
complex issues, she's somewhere at mid-level. If both her eyes and legs
fall helplessly open and she crosses herself in silent consternation
when she looks at my fly, she's a genius.

Well, he died young so I figured I owed him one for the voodoo, etc.

No. Besides, during those unavoidable dry spells, I have my trusty
rubber life raft with the painting on it to wile away the tension.

I'm afraid I have to object. The "do" does not precede the "da";
there's a "de" in between. Ergo, it is improper to call any part of
this construct a "do-da duality". Furthermore, the words, commonplace
and uninspired, remind me of little more than unpaid bills, mental
instability, and sexual deviancy from multiple directions. -A "C-"
effort, at best.
