[Hey, I know when to simply smile and nod. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> And 'two weeks' is being awfully generous.]

 

diamonds...women always want diamonds.

Now, chrome... find a way to make me something out of chrome and we're in business.

The thought of that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

 

Did you all know that Diamonds are actually very easy to obtain and some company (De Beers I think) has the corner marketed? If they released all the diamonds they have available, the cost would come down something like 95% or something. The initial ad campaign was designed to make them look "unobtainable" and "rare" and it has stuck all these years.

Diamonds are NOT rare and if you spend 3 months salary on one, your getting totally ripped off. They are not worth anything close to what we pay for them.

I saw this info on some dateline/20/20/Primetime Live show. The host said he would never buy a diamond again. Cubic for him from now on.

So, diamonds are a dime a dozen, but try explaining that to your future wife when you say that you're not buying her one!!!

Solution is simple...don't get married. At least not in California. That way when they leave you for the next guy [oh sweetheart, I've changed and I'm not in love with you anymore] they won't take half of your damb possessions.

 

Trev,

But the whole thing about the title being "What a girls wants" and the fact that there were 450 gorgeous females in that theater, I had to share.

BTW, after watching the movie, my friend Steve (I went with him and his wife) decided that girls want:

1. A guy who sings and plays the guitar
2. A guy who will buy her things
3. A guy who will make a fool of himself for her
4. A guy who drives a motorcycle (BMW in the movie)
5. A guy with a British accent (DANG! I mean, BLOODY HECK!)
6. A guy who will give chase

Too bad I am not any of those! Well, maybe if she's nice I'll buy her something...

</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Helvetica">My responses to the list...

1. Can't say that's a bad thing. Me, personally, I like a guy who's into music as much as I am. Even if he's horrible and can't sing to save his life, if he doesn't let that stop him from singing [in the car, shower, serenade on a whim] that's what it's all about. I think everyone has some untapped potential in the musical department.

2. I have forever had a hard time accepting gifts from people. Of course, it's different with my boyfriend since we've been together for almost 6 years now [damn...], but it doesn't go one way. We buy each other things. I'd still 100% rather be on the giving than the receiving end of things. [Minds out of the gutters, kids.]

3. He doesn't have to do it on my account, but if he acts goofy or silly because that's who he is? Awesome.

4. It's that whole 'bad boy' image that most girls seem to equate with owning a motorcycle. My passion for fast, shiny [mmmchrome] things makes this one tempting, but it's definitely not a pre-requisite in the least. Hell, my boyfriend didn't even own a car when we first met. Walking and bussing it to dates is actually fun.

5. Definitely dig the accent thing, but could take it or leave it.

6. To an extent, knowing you're being persued is exciting. Then again, it's finding that happy medium between completely aloof and stalker material. Heh. And I fully believe in equal opportunity with the roles being reversed. I know a lot of guys who would LOVE to be the one being pursued for a change. Can't blame 'em.

 

man, matt, you've got it all wrong!!!

here's what a girl wants (at least MY girl)

<a href="http://members.rennlist.com/erau944/kelseyandmike.JPG" target="_blank">a good lookin guy in a nice suit</a>

now... heres what a GUY wants (at least I do)

<a href="http://members.rennlist.com/erau944/14inchcheesybread.JPG" target="_blank">the biggest cheesybread from papa johns you'll ever see... it all happened one night when they ran out of regular cheesy bread dough, so my suitemate and i were like, hey make us one on a pizza crust... and they did... and it was GOOD</a>

so yeah, that about covers the bases

Observing from a selection of movies, I've reached the following conclusions on the subject.

Girls want:
- a guy who saves them from a difficult situation with a helicopter assault (Spy Games)
- a guy who posesses unnatural superhero powers (Spiderman)

... damn, I had more but I've forgotten those already <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />

 

girsl want tim still

 

Michael B, thats all I eat from Papa Johns, I love it..and yes, I have ordered a large pizza "cheesybread" style in my day also

 

hehe you know it baby... my suitemate and i bs'd for awhile with the delivery guy about it tonight, we're gonna try for some again tomorrow

BTW tim, its cool you're 21, but seriously man, lay off the booze... <img border="0" alt="[cherrsagai]" title="" src="graemlins/drink.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cherrsagai]" title="" src="graemlins/drink.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cherrsagai]" title="" src="graemlins/drink.gif" />
