    Have I been stood up?

    I can't even begin to list all the things that are wrong with that suggestion from an ethical standpoint. Probably a legal standpoint, also!:eek:

    What's your weather like?

    This weekend was sunny but a bit chilly, with a lot of wind. Today we are supposed to get a big thunderstorm. After that, it is supposed to be nice (at least for a while.)

    Have I been stood up?

    My experience with online dating so far is that there are plenty of women who are happy to exchange a few emails, but none who are interested in taking the next step by actually meeting in person.

    Have I been stood up?

    Nice. Unfortunately, I don't drink,smoke, or touch drugs. I prefer women wh don't do those things either.

    Once again: what are you listening to now?

    Are you saying that those of us who want to puke when we hear rap might like her new CD? It is that much different?

    I've had my ears hacked off with a chainsaw

    There is a Metheny CD that I got recently that I will be selling (forgot the title.) The reason is that I find it much too slow and boring. Remember, this is coming from a guy who likes new age!

    Favorite concert DVD's

    That DVD is recorded loud! I have to reduce my volume setting at least 12dB below my usual level to watch it.:eek:

    Polk Audio or Boston Acoustics

    There was a time when I would have said Boston without hesitation. They have gone severely downhill since then, however, while Polk has remained consistent. Nothing by Boston today is even in the same league as the classic A60s.

    Monitors- what to buy

    Are you looking for monitors for listening, or literal monitors (for recording)? For listening, I strongly recommend that you hear the Cambridge Audio S30s. Don't let the price fool you, they sound like they cost at least $1200. They easily rank among the top 5 or 10 speakers I have heard...

    Have I been stood up?

    Those she is not interested in? Definitely. If the manager doesn't understand her right to turn down guys who are hitting on her, then she is working for the wrong manager. Nobody suggested being rude about it, merely decisive.

    Madonna in Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

    Why would you do that after paying for the ticket? Even without being a fan of her music, it is sure to be a lavish, entertaining spectacle.

    Have I been stood up?

    Of course I was not at all like this toward her. I speak my mind on the forum. I am a perfect gentleman when talking to a lady. Not sure where you get the whole "obsessed with tis one" concept. I had largely given up on her by the time I started this thread. My recent comments apply with...

    Have I been stood up?

    What is wrong with this simple scenario?:confused: Me: "Would you like to go out?" her: "No". the end.

    Have I been stood up?

    It is to me. If you have no intention of calling someone, don't write down their phone number. Basic courtesy 101. Besides, I have never met anyone who would not prefer being turned down flat to being given a suggestion of hope (however faint) where none exists.:mad:

    Have I been stood up?

    Absolutely. A simple "no" would have sufficed. Taking my contact information and not using it was rude and uncalled-for.

    Have I been stood up?

    Not willing to jump in is understandable. Not willing to dip one toe in the water is not.

    What have you stopped listening to?

    With most classic rock bands, it is like this: Start with the full catalog, remove all the hits, and what is left over I can still enjoy listening to.

    Madonna in Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

    Yes, she did, and I respect her for that. Not a big fan of her music (particularly not the reggae CD), but she has won my admiration.

    Have I been stood up?

    A "good, long discussion" is the first step. One cannot take smaller steps than that, because no smaller step exists.:eek: As for the "more hooks" suggestion, you may have missed it, but I mentioned that I have joined a singles website. So far, nothing has gotten beyond a brief email or two...

    Have I been stood up?

    I totally don't get any of the "at that level" or "high expectations" references at all!:confused::eek: All I have ever been referring to is a first date. As in starting from scratch. As in talking more than a couple of minutes for the first time. As in "hello, my name is..." How on earth can...
