“No!” The word exploded from her mouth as she stepped on a mine they both vowed to avoid. “You explain it to me now! Why’d you have to sleep with her? Why?”
“Are we still together?” he challenged. “Are we baby?”
“That’s not the point!” she bellowed. She smacked her cigarette between her lips and slapped [...]

Where There’s Smoke

If your fellow workers smoke and take simultaneous smoking breaks yet never include you, don’t take it personally. It isn’t about you – it’s about the activity. It’s not a social club. If they all rode bicycles during their breaks and you didn’t … would you feel hurt they didn’t ask you if you wanted [...]

Oral histories are incredibly valuable. It is certainly more valuable to hear an eyewitness account instead of reading a historical document filled with “and then he said that she did …” History is written by gossips. I think that’s one of the most invaluable benefits of caring for our aged. We not only hear what [...]

The root of the word “infatuation” is fat. Fat = swollen /out of proportion. Infatuation is when affection is swollen out of proportion. And then the emotion ceases to be about the objective and is subjective. Unfortunately for both parties, the subject becomes self. The object becomes aware of his/her influence on others. The infatuated [...]
Guidance

I think often in life we stop ourselves from doing the right thing or the necessary thing that would benefit our fellow man because we make the situation about ourselves. And it isn’t. All situations aren’t about us. I think it would be kinder to guide people toward a solution than to take the path [...]

My sister was recently chosen for Grand Jury duty. It reminded me of serving on a jury in the past. I enjoyed jury duty – although it added validity to the pronouncements of women in my past. “You’re too judgmental” they’d declared. And now I can retort, “but they asked me to be!”

1. If you and your kid are checking the mail to see whose social security check comes first? It’s time he moved.
2. I’m turned off by a woman who only sees life from a feminist point of view. I like women who see the world above the waist.
3. “Get therapy” is a condescending and [...]

Ok … there was a time when I actually was considered “cute” …yeah, you can’t tell by my picture. Now I settle for “well-groomed.” Although, I was recently told by a woman that I was “adorable.” Yeah, well my ego is ignoring the fact that she was in her 80s.
However – when I was younger [...]

A woman asked this question on an online networking site:
“I am happily married but yet like to have fun by flirting. I say I am married not dead. Is it ok to flirt?”
And I replied:
Ok there’s a difference between having a good personality and flirting. If you flash your personality at both sexes without editing [...]

Men can sleep anywhere. We usually do. But – being in a close space the next morning when a man has to share in the light of day without the pretense of courtship or the protection of atmosphere – is an intimacy that can be daunting. It’s uncomfortable. And that’s why we usually try to [...]

Ok can we first set the ground rule that “beauty is in the eyes of the beholder” is slather written by a smoothed tongued bastard trying to get laid? True beauty – physical beauty – is obvious. I have never heard the words “Naw, Grace Kelly was a dog!” spoken.
Whatever benefits the beautiful possess – [...]

An open letter to the cynic, the critic, the comic, and the sarcastic:
Stop screaming with your smirks. I see you. I know who you are. You’re an intelligent yet inactive man who defines himself by the actions of others. And since you don’t act – you’re inert. In your youth you encountered resistance to your [...]

I’ve seen the surveys. I’ve read the questions. I’ve heard the conversations. And now I’ll answer it.
Surveys suggest that the average couple has sex 1-3 times a month. In the real world – I don’t believe there’s a man walking earth that has sex only thrice a month. Well, unless of physical [...]
