Oh, about W*****, I think that we could only be friends. Though, I DO NOT wonder why he has so many woman in his life. He IS a bona fide Chick Magnet! He behaves in a way that Ive seen very few men behave around women. When he speaks he always makes solid eye contact. He always seems focused on everything you have to say, as he actually seems to listen to everything and seems genuinely interested. When my dad and I rode with him, I thought that he would be bringing his friend girl. Nope. He had another guy from along the strand that he and my dad were friends with. He jumped out of his SUV to open and hold the door for me, when he picked my dad and I up. W***** would periodically remind my dad and the other man that, We have a lady with us tonight, guys, and she may not be interested in all of this guy talk. When we arrived at the funeral home he quickly got out of the vehicle and again opened my door. He walked along beside and just talked until we were approaching the front door to the place where he, not only opened and held the door but made sure that I entered before the men. Some of his behaviors around women you would just have to SEE to appreciate. Im really interested in his behavior around women! I mean he really has a flair for how he handles himself around women. Working in behavioral health my lady friends would consider him like a case study, of sorts. Especially, after working all night, the women that I worked with would gather together for breakfast and someone like W***** would serve as a wonderful conversation piece! We would examine the pay-offs in the behavior -which in his case I think are obvious.
I once offered a theory about men who develop this style. Once my friend Gwen asked, Where do you suppose these guys come from? Another asked. Oh, do you suppose that theres like a little known central repository? I was quick to jump in with my hypothesis, Not exactlyHowever, men have to be trained in this fine, rare, style of artful sophistication and to a degree, seduction. Thus, my theory is that when the aliens arrived, in Egypt, tens of thousands of years ago with their advanced technology, to help build the pyramids and create those elaborate drawing that you can only see from a plane, I believe that the female aliens noticed that there was something amiss among the male earthlings! I will call what they saw missing the W***** Element, for lack of a better name. I believe that they then introduced, established and organized a society of women skilled in educating young men, in cultivating, if you will, a more enlightened and refined approach to women.
My friend I***** said, Geez, those darn aliens did so much for us and I bet nobody even bothered to send them a Thank You card! Yeah, I was thinking along those same lines, Brenda because those men really are so rare they DO almost seem otherworldly, dont they?
Yes. Oh, about the Thank You card. You do realize that there was no oversight? They did make an attempt to send a card about a week after the official Alien Going Away Party.
Oh, waitI think I heard about that.was his name Clyde? My friend I***** inquired.
No, Clyde just helped. It was Akhom, you remember the one who wanted to fly to the surface of the sun?
Oh, Yes! My friend I*****, intoned. So sad..Though, if it hadnt been for Akhom that strange drawing of that bird in the dessert still wouldnt have an eye. Well, at least his life wasnt a total waste!
We were laughing so hard I thought that the Breakfast House folks were going to ask us to leave!!!!
Sometimes ya just have to laugh! (Especially, if you have MY mother, who has been competing for attention with these now deceased PEOPLE!)
Glad that youre Back, Linda! I hope that folks dont get too annoyed with my posts!!
