Well, Phil... ya see it's like this <grinning>... and mind you, I can't speak for other single Parkie wimmins, but based upon my own dating experiences over the last 15 years, I sure do find out who's gotta good sense of humor reeeeeal fast!!! <rueful smile> I've learned to appreciate the fella who can wisecrack, saying something like "I wanted to sleep with you from the moment I saw you, but somehow THIS isn't quite how I expected it to be!" <LOL> Uhhhhhh... we were having dinner in a very nice restaurant, and I was sitting there drifting in and out of a near-coma-like sleep.

Based on your previous posts, is the indicator she throws up or falls asleep on the first date? :-) <Now I'm ducking> Phil G.
