My friends told me of a particular New York Craigslist post the other night that I had not seen.   In the post, a “spectacularly beautiful” woman requests a man who earns greater than $500,000 a year.  A man responds to her that her beauty is a “depreciating asset” while his money will continue to grow.  His response garnered much attention. 

I searched the Internet to find this post and bring it those of you who have not seen it.  Without further ado, I bring you the spectacularly beautiful women who wants a rich man and the man who views her, at best, as someone to date in the short term.   You can read my thoughts below.

I had a friend at work who, in his pursuit of someone, was rather persistent.  People would somewhat jokingly refer to him as a stalker.  He would say, “I prefer to call it dedication.”

 Well, meet Dimitri.  Dimitri could even teach my friend a thing or two.  If you have not yet seen Dimitri on youtube, you have not yet seen what true dedication is all about  Continue Reading »

Many girlfriends ask the following question:  Why Is My Boyfriend Acting the Way He Is?

Greg Norman Still Leads the Open Championship

Judy Rankin, on the ABC coverage, said yesterday that Greg Norman will continue to play well and perhaps lead the Open Championship going into Sunday.  She was one of the few who said this without qualification.  And she was right! Continue Reading »

Greg Norman Leads The Open Championship

At 53, Greg Norman is shockingly in the lead at the British Open at Royal Birkdale.  In an interview, Jim Hubert asked him if he felt compelled to catch up to new wife Chris Everet’s  tennis majors.  Jim, she’s won 18; he has 2.  Silly question.

A better question might be:  “Greg how can you play so well after just handing over $103 million to your ex-wife?” Continue Reading »

 I was just about to create an entry about the legality of prostitution in many countries when various Internet searches brought me to Sally, who is struggling with this very issue in an article entitled “Let’s Talk About Sex“. 

Apparently, Sally is a feminist; I liked the way she thinks through, and struggles, with the problem.  I’m not a feminist (can a guy even be one?) and would not immediately say I appreciate feminism given the stereotypical  images it conjures up.  Continue Reading »

Summer In Punta Del Este

Returning to Punta Del Este, after being there during the winter, was like returning to a ghost-town and finding it filled with people laughing, drinking, sunning, and enjoying every moment.

The wealthy set from all over South America and the world descend on Punta Del Este immediately after Christmas and the party lasts for a few months. Continue Reading »

I just found out today that hundreds of people everyday go to google and type in the term “I’m bored“.  I found this out because I was bored and I was wondering what can I do on the internet when I’m bored.  It turns out a lot of people are looking for fun things to do at work when bored and top things to do when bored.

It’s good that bored people have a lot of company; at least they’re not bored and lonely. 

But the bored people have it good.  A subset of the “I’m bored” sect trump their counterparts by saying “I’m so bored.”  Continue Reading »

 Reflections on a Day of Air Travel

Seat Belt Extenders?

Getting on the plane, the very large gentlemen in front of me asked for something I had never heard of:  a seat-belt extender.  Shouldn’t this be the point where the person gets charged for an extra ticket? Continue Reading »
