Isn't that a bit personal? If you were my wife, I wouldn't want you describing what I do in private to a public forum like this.

In any case. We know that he can handle himself on his own. Here's another man secret: All men do.

I was just concerned he might have been gagged and tied up or something, seeing as you are so independent (read: dominant ).

IMHO - Independence is a good trait, unless it becomes an obsession. That may be the sign of insecurity and lack of trust. Using a cycling analogy - Its usually better to tuck in behind and share the wind than for both to be out fighting it.

That's 4 cents now.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

ROFLMAO, tears rolling.

Oh, there are SO many responses, but I shall keep them to myself at this point.

Friggin' hysterical.

And, Crankyfeet actually brought my point home anyway. They think they want an independent woman, but it actually takes a rather strong man, with a lot of confidence in himself to be able to handle having a truly independent woman of equal or greater intelligence than himself.

Little Miss Independent...that's me.

So far Cranky's been handling my superior intelligence fairly well, I'd say.

A little Dave Barry calendar humor:

Have you ever tried to wrap leftover food in clear plastic wrap? Have you ever tried to tear off a piece of that wrap using the so-called "cutting edge"? If so, do you get a nice square piece, like the one that the cheerful homemaker always gets in the commercial? Don't make me laugh. What you get is a golf-ball-sized wad that looks like a dead jellyfish. THE "CUTTING EDGE" CUTS NOTHING! Fact: for every leftover food item that American consumers are able to wrap, they waste more than thirty-seven square miles of plastic -- enough to cover all of Manhattan Island, or the late Orson Welles.

Little window into NNS's world...

buenos noches, muchachos...

You come in here all cheery and pretty-avatared, make a couple of posts, and then you're outa here with your latin good nights. What's up nns? You can't be going to bed before ten? The night is young. And so are we. We are children of the night. Restless souls.

Oh dear...this is a guy's worst nightmare....a gal who THINKS she's smarter than you...with a "Little Miss Independent" attitude thrown into the mix.

I am going back over the FID thread history now trying to piece together where it all went wrong. Did I say something to give you that impression?

C'Girl - I don't think you're entirely blameless here in this transformation of nns. She used to be an innocent, nice, attractively-avatared lady, willing to play sidekick, and generally motivated to please her forum friend(s) with flirtatious repartee and frivolous humor, before you entered the fray.

Restless souls...that crash after dinner at a Mexican restaurant...with Mexican beer... But it was only a nap.

While searching for "Wrath of Bro" images, I came across this gem.


Minnesota state representative Phyllis Kahn.

That's not a woman. That's a man, baby!

Poor Cranky...our FID thread has tipped the normal forum gender balance of like 500 guys to 1 girl...to you and sometimes Bro to 4 of us girls. See how dangerous it is when we get together?! It's like...when we got the vote.

Yeah...Guys just hate being surrounded by bright, flirtatious women with spunk.

Well I think Bro maybe does....because we haven't seen much of him lately. Bro...I need some male-bonding in here as well. We all, as founding FID posters, have a responsibility to inflate this flatulent thread.

But Brother...its great to see you back in here after a hard, serious night's labor keeping our GT threads full of profound and intelligent commentary on the state of cycling.

I'm not being sarcastic here.

Bro...I'm still laughing from the "Bro Signal" image you dug up.

Looks like Bro's made his FID post for the week. Lucky I was here to see it live.

Looks like I came in right at the same moment...he's still worried about it being a chick thread now. But the Bro Signal was priceless...
