Somehow I don't think you're just a "plain" human. As for us htmlings,
we may have strange molecules but we have nice elements.

Oh, I think I got it. For example, because of this quality, women don't
like to watch skin flicks nearly as much as men. Isn't that the gist?

Hey, my gramma was Belgian (-although we called her Bulgarian just to
burn her waffles.)

Well, I agree with all that. However, you have to remember that men
were once cavemen and cavemen had to take what they could get whenever
they could get it. Old habits are hard to break.

Yes, and that's the advantage of having a mute spouse/significant
other/exotic dancer you can afford.

No, I'm simply setting stricter standards for the heretofore
transitional levels of maturity.

I'm as old as good, aged cognac but bite like the incomparable Jack

The only Australians I've met personally were in a zoo between the
Gooney Birds and the sewer rats.

Well, okay; plastic is for prosthetics. "Happily married" is a state
achieved only by the delusional. "Single" and "frustrated" are not
particularly congruent states although I suppose some bachelors could
put up quite a stink if they ran out of Jergens lotion.

Perhaps, but only in a fertile arena.

Dunno when it was recorded but I got the song appx. 1997 when www-dot-
mp3-dot-com was still good. My record-keeping is rather non-existent
but the song *is* called "Black Lace" and *I think* the band's name is
"Unknowne".
And yes, there is a gothic flavor to it, but it still somehow reminds me
of Debbie Boone's "You Light Up My Life". (Um, I guess this could be
due to the oblique reference to strippers.)

I laugh at almost everything I write (-and some people laugh even
harder.) But not the poetry! Odes are my life, and I'm the most odious
guy I know.
