The Talk2 List Fw: Mensa winners
The Washington Post's Mensa Invitational once again asked readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition. Here are this year's winners. Read them carefully. Each is an artificial word with only one letter altered to form a real word. Some are terrifically innovative: 1. Intaxication : Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with. 2. Reintarnation : Coming back to life as a hillbilly. 3. Bozone (n.): The substance surrounding stupid people that stops bright ideas from penetrating. The bozone layer, unfortunately, shows little sign of breaking down in the near future. 4. Cashtration (n.): The act of buying a house, which renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period. 5. Giraffiti : Vandalism spray-painted very, very high. 6. Sarchasm : The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it. 7. Inoculatte : To take coffee intravenously when you are running late. 8. Hipatitis : Terminal coolness. 9. Osteopornosis : A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit.) 10. Karmageddon : It's like, when everybody is sending off all these really bad vibes, right? And then, like, the Earth explodes and it's, like, a serious bummer. 11. Decafalon (n.): The gruelling event of getting through the day consuming only things that are good for you. 12. Glibido: All talk and no action. 13. Dopeler effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly. 14. Arachnoleptic fit (n.): The frantic dance performed just after you've accidentally walked through a spider web. 15. Beelzebug (n.): Satan in the form of a mosquito, that gets into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out. 16. Caterpallor (n.): The color you turn after finding half a worm in the fruit you're eating. And The #1 pick: 17. Ignoranus : A person who's both stupid and an asshole.

The Talk2 List Groundhog Day airs After The John Zone
Hi All, Last night, Bec pointed out to me that it was a year ago that I started airing movies. So I thought I would air one tomorrow night since I haven't done so in a really long time. So tomorrow after the John Zone, come to the movies channel and watch Groundhog day with us. At 9:15 PM tomorrow after the John Zone, point your favorite player to the following link. http://tbrn.net:/movies.ogg Here is a plot synopsis. A weather man is reluctantly sent to cover a story about a weather forecasting rat (as he calls it). This is his fourth year on the story, and he makes no effort to hide his frustration. On awaking the 'following' day he discovers that it's Groundhog Day again, and again, and again. First he uses this to his advantage, then comes the realization that he is doomed to spend the rest of eternity in the same place, seeing the same people do the same thing EVERY day. See you then.

The Talk2 List Kickin' back with a movie tonight
Hi and Happy Easter to those of you who celebrate it. Every year, I have a special tradition. After family time is spent and the night is winding down, I always kick back with yummy chocolate and watch Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. I've been doing this for years. I thought I would air the movie tonight and share my tradition with all of you. So tonight at 10 PM Eastern, join me for an airing of Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. I am doing it at 10 instead of 9 because I am still at my mom and dad's and I may not make it home by 9. Instead of airing on the main TBRN network, I will be airing on the movies channel. The channel will become available for you to access at 9:45 PM. Point your media player to the following link at 10 and share in the movie with me. http://tbrn.net:/movies.ogg See you then, Mary Ann

The Talk2 List HUMOR ] Travel
NEXT TIME YOU FLY Occasionally, airline attendants make an effort to make the in-flight safety lecture, and their other announcements, a bit more entertaining. Here are some real examples that have been heard or reported: There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out of this airplane... Your seat cushions can be used for flotation, and in the event of an emergency water landing, please take them with our compliments. We do feature a smoking section on this flight; if you must smoke, please contact a member of the flight crew and they will escort you to the wing of the airplane. Smoking in the lavatories is prohibited. Any person caught smoking in the lavatories will be asked to leave the plane immediately. Pilot - Folks, we have reached our cruising altitude now, so I am going to switch the seat belt sign off. Feel free to move about as you wish, but please stay inside the plane till we land... it's a bit cold outside, and if you walk on the wings it affects the flight pattern. And, after landing: Thank you for flying Delta Business Express. We hope you enjoyed giving us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride. As we waited just off the runway for another airliner to cross in front of us, some of the passengers were beginning to retrieve luggage from the overhead bins. The head attendant announced on the intercom, This aircraft is equipped with a video surveillance system that monitors the cabin during taxiing. Any passengers not remaining in their seats until the aircraft comes to a full and complete stop at the gate will be strip searched as they leave the aircraft. Once on a Southwest flight, the pilot said, We've reached our cruising altitude now, and I'm turning off the seat belt sign. I'm switching to autopilot, too, so I can come back there and visit with all of you for the rest of the flight. As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at Washington National, a lone voice comes over the loudspeaker: Whoa, big fella...WHOA..! Should the cabin lose pressure, oxygen masks will drop from the overhead area. Please place the bag over your own mouth and nose before assisting children or adults acting like children. As you exit the plane, please be sure to gather all of your belongings. Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses. Last one off the plane must clean it. And from the pilot during his welcome message: We are pleased to have some of the best flight attendants in the industry...Unfortunately, none of them are on this flight...! Heard on Southwest Airlines just after a very hard landing in Salt Lake City: The flight attendant came on the intercom and said, That was quite a bump and I know what ya'll are thinking. I'm here to tell you it wasn't the airline's fault, it wasn't the pilot's fault, it wasn't the flight attendants' fault.it was the asphalt! Overheard on an American Airlines flight into Amarillo, Texas, on a particularly windy and bumpy day. During the final approach the Captain was really having to fight it. After an extremely hard landing, the Flight Attendant came on the PA and announced, Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Amarillo. Please remain in your seats with your seat belts fastened while the Captain taxis what's left of our airplane to the gate! Another flight Attendant's comment on a less than perfect landing: We ask you to please remain seated as Captain Kangaroo bounces us to the terminal. After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in Memphis, a flight attendant on a Northwest flight announced: Please take care when opening the overhead compartments because, after a landing like that. I'm sure that everything has shifted. From a Southwest Airlines employee Welcome aboard Southwest Flight XXX to YYY. To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab into the buckle, and pull tight. It works just like every other seat belt, and if you don't know how to operate one, you probably shouldn't be out in public unsupervised. In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, oxygen masks will drop from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have a small child traveling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with two small children, decide now which one you love more. Weather at our destination is 50 degrees with some broken clouds, but they'll try to have them fixed before we arrive. Thank you, and remember, nobody loves you, or your money, more than Southwest Airlines. An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had hammered his ship into the runway really hard. The airline had a policy which required the first officer to stand at the door while the passengers exited, smile, and give them a Thanks for flying XYZ airline. He said that in light

The Talk2 List Instead of Kickin' Back with Mary Ann, let's watch a movie instead!
Hi everyone, This week of work has been very long and I am in much need of a bit of self-kick backment. So I thought maybe you might like to kick back with me for a Christmas movie instead. I have never seen A Miracle on 34TH Street. Maybe some of you haven't seen it either. So I thought we could all grab some hot chocolate or some popcorn or anything else that sounds yummy and like comfort food or drink when cold weather, snow, and freezing rain happens and this time of year, and watch it tonight . It seems that many people are having a 70-degree holiday season. A very dear friend suggested turning on the AC and drinking hot chocolate. Wow what has happened to our weather! Important: The link to watch the movie is different than that of the main network. If you would like to watch the descriptive video version of this movie with me tonight at 9 PM, point your TBRN-capable media player to the following link http://tbrn.net:/movies.ogg The link will become available for you to access starting at 8:30 PM. Lastly, there are times when I air random movies on this special channel. E-mail me privately if you would like to be notified of my random airing of movies. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hope to see you tonight. Here is a synopsis of the movie. At the Macy's Department Store Thanksgiving Day parade, the actor playing Santa is discovered to be drunk by a whiskered old man. Doris Walker, the no nonsense special events director, persuades the old man to take his place. The old man proves to be a sensation and is quickly recruited to be the store Santa at the main Macy's outlet. While he is successful, Ms. Walker learns that he calls himself Kris Kringle and he claims to be the actual Santa Claus. Despite reassurances by Kringle's doctor that he is harmless, Doris still has misgivings, especially when she has cynically trained herself, and especially her daughter, Susan, to reject all notions of belief and fantasy. And yet, people, especially Susan, begin to notice there is something special about Kris and his determination to advance the true spirit of Christmas amidst the rampant commercialism around him and succeeding in improbable ways. When a raucous conflict with the store's cruelly incompetent psychologist erupts, Kris finds himself held at Bellevue where, in despair, he deliberates fails a mental examination to ensure his commitment. All seems lost until Doris' friend, Fred Gaily, reassure Kris of his worth and agrees to represent him in the fight to secure his release. To achieve that, Fred arranges a formal hearing in which he argues that Kris is sane because he is in fact Santa Claus. What ensues is a bizarre hearing in which people's beliefs are reexamined and put to the test, but even so, it's going to take a miracle for Kris to win. Doris Walker a no-nonsense Macy's executive, desperately searches for a new store Santa. She hires Kris Kringle who insists that he's the real Santa Claus. But, he has many skeptics like Doris and her six year old daughter, Susan. So Kris goes to court to try and prove it. Is he the real Santa Claus?

Amy, doesn't that sound like you don't like the paperwork aspect, though? and that it was a deciding factor? Just understanding your thoughts. I think that if people go into a field because of some underlying facet of their personality that drives them to go into the field and if that sense of purpose for them, is helping others and that resonates with them enough to be an awesome Social Worker, more power to them. I don't think there is anything wrong with allowing your social motivators (See find your ideal career podcast) to drive a desire to help others. It is when that desire does not drive their passion and quality of work so that quality only equates to being high enough to support them beyond being a volunteer, instead of a social worker, that there becomes a problem, I think.

If you ask someone that graduated with their MSW why they got that degree, their generic response is because I want to help people, That's awesome, I'm all for helping people, but you can accomplish that task by volunteering your time coaching special Olympics or being a big brother or big sister, a victim advocate or crisis center volunteer--go work for habitat for humanity. My point, is that you can give and get back ten fold without a job as a social worker. Paperwork should be outlawed in my opinion.

Here are the reasons you didn't get more than you did: 5 times you came home drunk and tried to screw the cat 36 times you did not come home at all 21 times you didn't cum 33 times you came too soon 19 times you went soft before you got in 38 times you worked too late 10 times you got cramps in your toes 29 times you had to get up early to play golf 2 times you were in a fight and someone kicked you in the balls 4 times you got it stuck in your zipper 3 times you had a cold and your nose was running 2 times you had a splinter in your finger 20 times you lost the notion after thinking about it all day 6 times you came in your pajamas while reading a dirty book 98 times you were too busy watching TV Of the times we did get together: The reason I laid still was because you missed and were screwing the sheets. I wasn't talking about the crack in the ceiling, what I said was, Would you prefer me on my back or kneeling? The time you felt me move was because you farted and I was trying to breathe.

Maybe you just need someone to help you think through the terrible logistics that no one ever wants to have to think about when things like this happen.

Re: The Talk2 List more oddness!
Do you remember geometry books in highschool? Those raised drawings on those thermoform pages? Ah. All those 90-degree angles and circles with the cute little Braille numbers to show us the degrees when you drew an arc through the circles. Blech! Anyway, what if they had those damn Playboy or Centerfold magazines to look like those geometry graphs? Whoa! As for the tattoos? The description suggests that the person getting this, isn't actually getting a tattoo, but they are getting a Braille implant instead. I don't think this would be something I'd want either, Amy. And the zits comment was damn funny! The feeling of smooth skin is great. Even the feeling of natural blemishes or marring due to life and all that it brings is understandable and can offer something unique. I have a small pock mark on my left cheek from when I had chicken pocks. Guys who have dated me have said that it is unobtrusive and looks more like freckles and offers character. Who the hell knows. But I don't think I'd want Braille implants. I like my body just the way it is, thanks. Heheh. If people enjoy tattoos, more power to ya. For me, I guess I think that if I was meant to have a tattoo, Ida been born with a built-in pen. And as for why anyone would want to feel the thing, depending on where it was placed? Is there any place that it could be placed that you'd wanna feel it? Uh, I don't think sowowowowow... How attractive would it be to run your hands over your partner's skin and run your favorite Braille-reading finger over the words, Amy, Mary Ann, Julie, Sam, Cindy, Donna, Michelle, Rosie, or whatever.

Yeah see I had one of those when I was a kid--the Rubik's Cube in Braille. My dad and I labeled it. I only got the block once. So then I got irritated at the thing, and tore off all the little stickers so then they all matched so it didn't matter. Sort of defeating the purpose you know? hehehhehheh Yeah I think that some of this goes a bit overboard. I mean I'm all for accessibility and broadening ones horizons, but wow! My mom was the one that sent me these, and she could not wrap her head round the idea behind the Braille tattoos either! Personally I can't either. If I want a tattoo, I'll go and get one, and that will be that. Plus given the places that some folks put tattoos, why in hell would you have the impulse to feel them anyway? It just amazes me the things people come up with! I have no reason, like you, to feel a neck tie, or bottle of wine or beer. That's excessive to me. So what I want to know, is where is the line between meeting the needs of a population to make things more accessible, and when it becomes too much? Some blind and visually impaired people would argue that a line doesn't exist, hence making it necessary for such things like Braille Play Boy center folds and things like that, but to me, it seems that it makes you stand out even more, and on the center fold thing, honestly guys, you can do better than that!

I almost forgot... Perhaps this makes me a dork, or a bit too much of a perfectionist, but I remember taping stuff off of the radio, and putting the stereo on the dub function for like five seconds in between songs so that there was space in between them. Mary Ann, I'd bet you did that too since we are so much alike... *smiles* I had vinyl and cassette tapes up until like '91 or '92. Yeah, I was a little behind I guess...

Re: The Talk2 List Fw: [B H F] 30 or older
Hey now, that's not all, I was known for in your family when we were kids. I was also known for being able to burp the words, Wipe out, better than anyone else! Hehehehheheheheh! And I remember something about Chetos, but I think that is too incriminating so if you remember it, Amy, no sharing it with the class okay? BTW, go get my show from last night, you guys, if you haven't heard me talk about how Amy damn near broke her nose when we were little because she dropped candy on the floor. Sure, she was getting it for me and all, but still.

See I invite you over to my house, and give you good yummy food, and what do you do? You share it with the swimming pool! hehehahh Yes, little Mary Ann totally dropped ribs on her shorts. they were the big beefy ones and ya know how those can be sort of greasy... Anyways, so our bright idea so that she could get the gunk off of her shorts was to have her hop into the pool so that is what she did! You know what's funny, is that my brother because he was really little back then doesn't remember much about the times when Mary Ann was over at our house, but everyone hands down for some reason, remembers the time when Mary ann dropped ribs on her shorts! hehheheehhha!

I loved when the film projectors broke and all the film got stuck in it and it made all that weird grindy-like noise.

The Talk2 List Airing at 11:30 PM EASTERN tonight (Friday) - Collateral
Forgive my last minute notice but something made me think about this movie tonight. I don't even remember what it was now, but something occurred to me that has since slipped away. My apologies if you end up seeing this post twice. I think there was some XML in my first attempt that was blocked by the SPAM filter and so it has not shown up yet. At 11:30, Point your favorite internet radio dial to the standard Mary Ann movie channel. http://tbrn.net:/movies.ogg Plot summary for Collateral ( 2004) Max has lived a mundane life as a cab driver for twelve years. The faces have come and gone from his rear-view mirror: people and places he's long since forgotten--until tonight. Vincent is a contract killer. When an off-shore narco-trafficking cartel learns that they're about to be indicted by a federal grand jury, they mount an operation to identify and kill the key witness, and the last stage is tonight. It is on this very night that Vincent has arrived--and five bodies are supposed to fall. Circumstances cause Vincent to hijack Max' taxicab, and Max becomes collateral--an expendable person who's in the wrong place at the wrong time. Through the night, Vincent forces Max to drive him to each assigned destination. And as the L.A.P.D. and F.B.I. race to intercept them, Max and Vincent's survival become dependent on each other, in ways neither would have imagined. Written by Sujit R. Varma One night in Los Angeles, cab driver Max Durocher picks up a gray-suited man named Vincent. Vincent offers Max a large sum of money to drive him to five locations around LA before the night is up. Max accepts, but realizes that Vincent is a hitman who has been hired to kill five people that night. Max is forced to drive Vincent around the City of Angels, unsure if he'll live to see sunrise. Written by G-reaper Max Durocher (Foxx) is a night-shift cab driver in Los Angeles. He's planning a limo company called Island Limos, but has been a cab driver for twelve years. One night, he picks up a passenger named Vincent (Cruise) who seems like another ordinary passenger. But when he drops Vincent off at his location and waits for him as asked, a body falls on his cab, and it becomes clear that Vincent is actually a hitman, and he's got four more stops to make. Written by Ridley Lavine For Max, the dreams of his own limo company are what keep him afloat from the mundane reminder of his real job: taxi driver, which he has been doing for over a decade. But one fateful night, Max has one cab fare that he would never expect named Vincent. He's a smooth, charismatic fellow who is sharply dressed and apparently wealthy, offering Max an excellent tip if he'll bring him to five stops throughout Los Angeles. But fate intervenes and Max soon finds out that Vincent isn't a businessman, but a contract hitman making his rounds. As the night progresses, Max finds himself under the microscope of a coldblooded killer. Meanwhile, the police and FBI are onto Max's cab while the two ultimately play a psychological cat and mouse game, that will lead to an inevitable climax neither would anticipate. Written by mystic80 Plot Synopsis: Max is a simple cab driver in Los Angeles. One night he picks up Annie, a beautiful DA. The two have very friendly chat where Annie talks about her nervousness over her upcoming trial appearence and Max discusses his dream business... more (warning! contains spoilers) Mary Ann e-mail and MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Join me for Kickin' Back with Mary Ann every Sunday night from 9 to 11 PM Eastern time.

The Talk2 List Kickin' Back with Mary Ann tonight at 9 PM Eastern
Okay so I thought I would jump on this cute little bandwagon and ride around the streets of the internet with its fiber optic cables and satellites and lands of IP addresses and little packets and whatever else makes up the workings of the internet that I have no clue about at all to promote my show for the week. Rather than talk about what may happen tonight, I will tease you with Amy's show notes about what has happened on previous shows. Since there are only two, this will be easy enough. And her reviews of both shows are sure to make you laugh. I don't think anyone else could do this but an Amy who has known me for 19 years. If ya don't wanna read below, just come listen to the show. Point your favorite TBRN-capable media software to http://tbrn.net:/tbrn.ogg See you tonight. Amy's show notes for September 30. http://maryannn.livejournal.com The most awesomest and bestest and mostest fantastico friend ever! did her first regular radio show last night on http://tbrn.net tbrn. For those of you who didn't catch it you need to http://tbrn.net/archives/MaryAnn/MaryAnn.070930.ogg go and grab it right now! I mean it. http://tbrn.net/archives/MaryAnn/MaryAnn.070930.ogg right now! I had to go and http://tbrn.net/archives/MaryAnn/MaryAnn.070930.ogg download it too because I only managed to catch the first part of it. What's important is that you go and listen to it, because all sorts of hilarity ensues! Mary Ann by herself has enough stuff to make things hilarious with all kinds of incriminating recordings, but things got rolling due to the most awesomest intro I think in the history of tbrn radio ever! Thanks to http://reverendbigdawg.livejournal.com/ John, it was an incredible beginning to her show! Yes, it was truly intro-tastic! Some trivia for you: Mary Ann, secretly longs to have sweet nothings both whispered in her ear as well as sent to her through the mail. If your response to that is huh? then apparently you haven't been paying attention and missed the part about going and downloading the file. Mary Ann, all little and tiny and cte though she is, really, really, really, really, really snores! I, mean, snores! I mean like sawing some huge lumber in a very wooded forest kind of snoring! I'm talking like earth shaking snoring! Don't believe me? http://tbrn.net/archives/MaryAnn/MaryAnn.070930.ogg download the show archive, and jump your time while playing to exactly 22:00. Make sure that you're listening with headphones. Now: Listen carefully. Hear that in the background of the Mary Ann song? That's, her, honker, going at it! It totally amazes me that that sound came out of her! I'd say that it was snore-tastic but I'm not sure that there is any way possible that snoring like that could be considered fantastic or any variation thereof. It might not be worthy of a variation on fantastic, but it is damn funny!! Now, in the same file jump back in time a little to 21:58, so that you can listen to and totally appreciate http://reverendbigdawg.livejournal.com/ John's awesome and rockin' intro, which pretty much lumps Mary Ann and her various degrees if silliness (some even at warp speed). Ok. Now, feel free to listen to the rest of the show from beginning to end at your leisure. Amy's Show notes for October 7 Another splendid Sunday evening has come and gone--ok so I'm totally aware that it is Monday or actually now Tuesday, but some of us have to work right? hehhehhehahahahah If you haven't tuned in yet, you missed another evening of Kickin' Back With Mary Ann! No, the promo isn't necessary, but it's fun, and worth your time to listen live, and if you can't for some reason--um--well considering the time of evening that it's on hopefully it's a good one, you need to go and http://tbrn.net/archives/MaryAnn/MaryAnn.071007.ogg download the archive. As usual when you're hangin' out with Mary Ann, hilarity ensues! Mary Ann is recovering from a day of much running around and so she's all tense until she has some wine. From that point on, it is truly an evening of Kickin' Back with Mary Ann! We bring our Strange Kitchen and Eating Events poll to life by reading the answers on air. She then opened it up to folks to call in and share more funny kitchen and food blunders. We hear all about fuzzy cookies, blackened cupcakes, fried soup and toasted grass, Derek's whistling biscuits (complete with sound affects), exploding stoves, and why it's probably a bad idea to let http://reverendbigdawg.livejournal.com John play with the condiments at the IHOP and mix them with coffee! . Hot sauce and syrup and sweeten low and coffee! Can we say bottoms up fellas? Needless to say, I am amazed that http://reverendbigdawg.livejournal.com John, has any stomach lining left! hehhehhehhahahaha! We are introduced to barfing Becky, and her fizzing popping candies! It's like a weird public service announcement about why an entire package of sour apple PopRocks in your mouth all it once

The Talk2 List airing at 9:30 PM Eastern time tonight - The Breakfast Club
My friend Amy and I were talking about this movie recently. It is from the early 80s, and is a part of a slew of classics from the day and it's a great movie. No description necessary. The dialog speaks for itself. Come on in with your favorite food and or beverage and join us for the movie at 9:30 PM tonight. Point WinAmp to the following URL http://tbrn.net:/movies.ogg Here is a synopsis. The Breakfast Club John Hughes wrote and directed this quintessential 1980s high school drama featuring the hottest young stars of the decade. Trapped in a day-long Saturday detention in a prison-like school library are Claire, the princess (Molly Ringwald); Andrew, the jock (Emilio Estevez); John, the criminal (Judd Nelson); Brian, the brain (Anthony Michael Hall); and Allison, the basket case (Ally Sheedy). These five strangers begin the day with nothing in common, each bound to his/her place in the high school caste system. Yet the students bond together when faced with the villainous principal (Paul Gleason), and they realize that they have more in common than they may think, including a contempt for adult society. When you grow up, your heart dies, Allison proclaims in one of the film's many scenes of soul-searching, and, judging from the adults depicted in the film, the teen audience may very well agree. Released in a decade overflowing with derivative teen films, The Breakfast Club has developed an almost cult-like status. ~ Dylan Wilcox, All Movie Guide Retrieved from http://movies.aol.com/movie/the-breakfast-club/10843/synopsis Mary Ann

Patrick is currently giving me the, You need this cable and that cable and this thing and that thing, talk. So I think these things will get squared away here pretty soon.

RE: The Talk2 List MARRIED LIFE - Mary Ann unleashes! Look out!
I am really amazed at the type of responses I've seen come through since I posted this yesterday wow! It is interesting to watch people open up and share thoughts and feelings. I appreciate all of the comments and I'm glad it touched people somehow. Byron, you raise something that is interesting to me here. I am interested in what other people think, too. Ya see, I'm not expert in all this. I just observe and draw conclusions. And read about stuff. Heh. Byron, you talk about wanting someone to share in at least some of your interests. What I'm curious about (this is for anyone to comment on) is whether or not it matters which interests she shares in, based on the level of importance the interest holds for you. I'll paint a picture. I have this theory that men want to be with someone who shares in whatever interest is most important to them. So if a man is most interested in techy stuff, for example, he would most likely be more attracted to a woman who is into it as well. Wouldn't that seem most logical? After all, the word, relationship implies the ability to relate. If a woman does not share the same interest as her partner, wouldn't that also suggest an inability to relate? I asked this very question to a friend of mine and here is what he said. She and I do things together that we both enjoy. It doesn't matter to me that she cannot relate to me in my top interests because there is a special feeling that comes from the time we spend, and just knowing that she is so good to me and that she truly cares for me. If I want to talk about things that she and I can't talk about, I just go talk to someone else. That fulfills me just fine. This seems hard for me to believe. If I were dating someone who is really into audio production and I wasn't, it would seem to me that regardless of whatever else we shared, he would most prefer to be with someone who is also into audio production. Suppose the girl was interested in learning more about the man's joys. She read up on it, asked questions, went to events with him on the subject so she could be a part of it, and even if she hadn't explored it on her own until he came along, she was willing to do so now, both for the sake of understanding his enjoyment, as well as to broaden her own horizons. Would this matter? Wouldn't her level of interest have to be homegrown for it to truly count? Mary Ann -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Byron J.

I like to record interesting or really mundane things like trips to the grocery store. My friends are very important to me, and I spend a lot of time with them.

I'm willing to participate in her hobbies too but it never seems to work that way.

Help to broaden my horizons and expose me to new ideas that I've never thought of. Talk to me on an intellectual level, I'm not an idiot. Be a part of my circle of friends, or at least let me hang out with them on a regular basis. These are the things I'm looking for in a relationship, and your e-mail helped me understand the way women think a bit better.

RE: The Talk2 List MARRIED LIFE - Mary Ann unleashes! Look out!
This is a very funny story, just by how it is written and I got a good chuckle out of it. But ya know? Maybe I'm weird but there are things I really hate about what I see that goes on in relationships. Uh-oh... *Mary Ann gets on her soapbox for a minute and hopes she doesn't scare people away.* I have a problem with pet names. Nicknames that were born of a fun event or because of an inside joke are one thing. Especially when they are not used all the time. But to me, the minute pet names are introduced into any relationship and you start replacing the person's real name with those, it's done. Eventually you stop viewing your partner as the hot and sexy person they are. There is nothing more powerful, I think, than hearing the person that you love, saying your name. And no, peoples, I don't just mean in bed! Hah! Something else I see that causes me concern is when a woman begins to boss her man around. How many men want to have sex with their mother? Well, a few, I'm sure. But for the most part, the normal men are not turned on by such things. This mothering happens when the woman does too much for him or when she is bossy. It would be interesting to poll men to ask them what makes them cheat. My feeling is that we would find that men are tempted to cheat if the following criteria are met. She nags instead of asks She dominates by being bossy rather than respectfully asking for what she needs or wants. She is disrespectful to her man by using condescending remarks such as, shut up, You don't know anything, I don't care what you want. Or worse remarks such as, Stop touching me! I don't like that! Don't kiss me there! Eww, you're gross! Even if said in fun, I think that if you ask a man, he might say that somewhere inside; a little piece of his ego was chipped away each time she does this. Stifling him in the relationship when he feels that his woman doesn't let, him do things. Should a woman have the right to let, or not let a person do things? A relationship is supposed to be about trust. Therefore, if a man wants to go out with the guys to a bar, to a strip club, or just drink a few beers at home, this ultimately would not pose an issue. It's all about moderation, I think. The minute a woman starts saying thinks like, I don't want you doing this, this, that, or that, chances are, whether he admits it or not, he's a very stifled and potentially restricted and unhappy man. And because of all this, the sex is now bad. It would also be interesting to poll women to ask them what makes them cheat. I have the feeling that it would be because of the following reasons. She can't be herself around him. He doesn't listen and tells her she shouldn't be upset. He doesn't tell her how precious she is to him. He does not make enough time for her. He does not help her with domestic things, or her internal struggles. And because of all this, the sex is now bad. Women need to know that they are free to be themselves. The big no-no phrases to hear are, You shouldn't be upset, or don't worry about it. Women want to talk and to be heard. Our way of thinking things through is by talking. Men, have you ever wondered why a woman will start a conversation with one opinion and by the time she's done, she will have a completely different point of view? This is because she was able to refine her thoughts just by your listening to her and not providing a solution. To come out the hero, men can reassure her and recognize that a woman gets insecure. When she seems angry, this translates to her actually being hurt. Women, need, reassurance. It's as simple as that. When she is upset, she doesn't talk to you because she doesn't trust you. You can reassure her that whenever she is ready to talk, you will be there to just sit and listen while she talks it through. When a woman cries, it is her way of expression. Let her ball until she can't ball no more! Hugs are good during these times, even if it is about you. When she's done, she'll be free of her burden. I also get the feeling that often, women don't know how to handle men when they are upset. Men often think things through by silently working through it on their own until the time they are ready to talk. Women are the heroines when they leave a man alone until he is ready to share his feelings. When a man retreats, let him. Tell him that you notice something is wrong and you'll wait patiently for him to come to you when he's ready to talk. You understand that he just needs some space right now and it's okay. For the women, I say the following. It has been said that a man would be happy to give a woman anything she wanted if he only knew what it was. I learned in my life that it is better to begin a sentence, with, I want more of this or that, instead of, I don't want you to do this, this, or that. Nobody is a mind reader and the minute people begin to assume that their partner loves them because they, should just know what I want, things begin to break. So men, if you
The Talk2 List The Strange kitchen and eating events poll
Hi All, For those of you who may not know, I used to work at a market research firm when I lived in Portland, Oregon. Part of the work that I did was to help with survey design and testing. It is with great pleasure to invite those of you with Live Journals to see my talents put to such productive use! You can participate in a survey that my best friend Amy and I put together by visiting Amy's journal. You can also view all answers so far. I will post them to the list after a bit more time in the field. Ack! I can't believe I just said, In the field! I am not a market researcher any, more! This will become apparent to anyone who participates. It seems that you must be logged in with your username in order to take part. So if you cannot see fields to fill out, that's probably why. Anyway, it's a short poll and it's fun and it gives you the opportunity to incriminate yourself by sharing your cooking and eating habits, as well as with anything crazy that has happened to you in the kitchen. To take the poll, visit the link below. http://amyb0223.livejournal.com/27350.html Mary Ann
The Talk2 List FW: Hell Hath No Fury Like a Woman's Scorn
Oh lookie. This was sent to me (how coinsidental) three years ago yesterday. _ From: Amy Billman Sent: Wednesday, July 07, 2004 5:40 PM To: Mary Ann Topolewski; Beverly Horne; Barry Toner Subject: Fw: Hell Hath No Fury Like a Woman's Scorn This is yucky! The Curtin Rods She spent the first day packing her belongings into boxes, crates and suitcases. On the second day, she had the movers come and collect her things. On the third day, she sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining room table by candlelight, put on some soft background music, and feasted on a pound of shrimp, a jar of caviar, and a bottle of Chardonnay. When she had finished, she went into each and every room and deposited a few half-eaten shrimp shells dipped in caviar, into the hollow of the curtain rods. She then cleaned up the kitchen and left. When the husband returned with his new girlfriend, all was bliss for the first few days. Then slowly, the house began to smell. They tried everything, cleaning, mopping, and airing the place out. Vents were checked for dead rodents, and carpets were steam cleaned. Air fresheners were hung everywhere. Exterminators were brought in to set off gas canisters, during which they had to move out for a few days, and in the end they even paid to replace the expensive wool carpeting. Nothing worked. People stopped coming over to visit. Repairmen refused to work in the house. The maid quit. Finally, they could not take the stench any longer and decided to move. A month later, even though they had cut their price in half, they could not find a buyer for their stinky house. Word got out, and eventually, even the local realtors refused to return their calls. Finally, they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a new place. The ex-wife called the man, and asked how things were going. He told her the saga of the rotting house. She listened politely, and said that she missed her old home terribly, and would be willing to reduce her divorce settlement in exchange for getting the house back. Knowing his ex-wife had no idea how bad the smell was, he agreed on a price that was about 1/10th of what the house had been worth, but only if she were to sign the papers that very day. She agreed, and within the hour his lawyers delivered the paperwork. A week later the man and his girlfriend stood smiling as they watched the moving company pack everything to take to their new home, including the curtain rods. I LOVE A HAPPY ENDING, DON'T YOU

Probably not much as it won't care, but it will come to get you. And it will come to take you away and you will never be heard from, or of, again.

There are equally some very small and short, just as scary people out there you know, and my sister is one of them. However she's too young to answer the question posed above.

I hate, and I do mean really, really, really dislike intensely, smelling the food of others. I mention this right now, simply because what I smell is making me hungrier than an Ethiopian that just walked across the searing desert, because it doesn't just smell good, it smells damn fantastic! Do you understand that feeling?

The Science Fair According to Principal Chris, the school science fair this year was very educational. At the same time, Principal Chris announced plans to quit the school system and become a Computer doob. It sounds like a safer job, the Principal said. Several Crazy projects were disqualified this year. The experiment on Animal Magnetism by Heather was canceled before we could plug in her Doob. The project by Joe on Gravity's Effect on First Graders was canceled when the custodians wouldn't let him borrow a ladder. And the nuclear-powered Microwave built by Bob was taken away by the police, who said Kerri will be back in school any day now. Nick won second prize with an experiment that asked, Can Erts Learn Karate? (The answer was yes.) The Erts tossed Principal Chris over a Boombox and left the science fair. Anyone who sees them should call the main office. Alice won first prize with her TNT Oranges. By planting seeds in gunpowder and watering them with nitroglycerin, she grew Oranges that explode when you drop them. What a dynamite idea, the Principal joked Quickly. So far, nobody has figured out how the prize-winning Oranges got into the salad served to the Principal at lunchtime. Just to be safe, though, the Vegetable Surprise has been taken off tomorrow's lunch menu. - Original Message - From: Mary Ann mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Topolewski To: talk2 mailto:talk2@AndreLouis.COM Sent: Sunday, May 20, 2007 8:31 PM Subject: RE: The Talk2 List Specific evidence that I really need help bad Whoa.

They are very happy; what the eye does not see the heart does not grieve. They are also very affectionate because love is blind. They often ignore things by turning a blind eye to them. They may be ignorant because they are in the dark about things, but do not underestimate them; they've got it all taped. They are very friendly people and like to keep in touch. They also tend to have a real feeling for the world round about them though they may not be able always to see eye to eye with certain situations. They may also sometimes lose sight of certain facts but do not underestimate their vision. Despite being blind they can still look forward to something and see you next week. You may not always be able to make them see what you mean, but they still are able to have their own view. They are not blind to their own faults, nor to the faults of others. You can try putting the wool over their eyes, but you may find that very difficult. They are so good at what they do that they can do it with their eyes closed but if they try to burn the candle at both ends, they may burn their fingers. Their medium of writing is easily spotted, is not pointless, in fact there is very much point in using braille and it is outstanding. Blind people enjoy a social life. However, one must bear in mind that if you take someone on a date, it will always be a blind date. If they have too much alcohol they may get blind drunk. Be warned: their rage and fear will always be blind rage and blind fear. When walking down the street at a fast pace with a white object being tapped about, they could be called hurricanes. An uneven pavement can be a real stumbling block. Blind alleys will not be too much of a problem. They never walk with blinkers on but they walk by faith and not by sight. If you were to come across blind people from Venice they would probably be called Venetian blinds. They are not allowed to drive, but it might be possible, provided they stick to blind rises and go round blind corners. Blind spots would not present a problem for them and at night they will not be blinded by the lights of other vehicles. These are blind facts but I hope that no-one finds the subject too touching and do not be so blind as those that will not see. Perhaps all this has been an eye opener to someone. May we all not lose sight of the fact that we are living in the age of so-called enlightenment where visionary leadership is very important and where care must be taken not to be blinded by things that are unimportant. Hopefully all this has provided some light relief. author unknown! Andre P. Louis Uncopyright, free music, compositions, Web-hosting and the new look to the beyond Radio Network?
