How to Spoil the Mood!

This is just NOT how to do romantic relationships.  Be true to your lover, as you are true to yourself and your God.

Un Chat, Pas un Tigre!

The alleged man-eating tiger on the loose near Euro Disneyland turned out to be a rather large, fat cat.  It had inspired a school lockdown and over 200 police hot on the cat's trail. 


Was Inspector Clouseau among their number?

Inhabitable Places for Hipsters

Hipster aspirants have a problem -- finding a place to live with hipster cred.  It's not easy.  While the wise hipster will avoid Council Bluffs, Iowa, Nashville, Tennessee, and Jackson Mississippi, there are a number of places where the hipster lifestyle is not supported, like San Diego (thank God).

Actually, I do love to frequent coffee shops.

This map mentions where hipsters can be all the hipster they can be, even with hipster churches, Rotary Clubs, and golf courses, if such paradoxes exist.

Seattle
Portland
San Francisco
Detroit
Minneapolis
Boston
Brooklyn
Binghamton
Oakland
Richmond
Washington
Philadelphia
Asheville
Austin
New Orleans

Manhattan, L.A., Cleveland, and Chicago failed to make the cut.

An observation: Each of these places is memorable in itself, without mention of the states that they are in.

The guide has an all-inclusive Anywhere location.  However, would that also include Bakersfield or Tulsa?

A Proposal Regarding Women's Swimsuits

It's obvious that women's swimsuits occur in a variety of sizes, brevity, and colors.  And some wearers, quite frankly, want as much exposure as possible, whether for sun or attracting guys.   Microbikinis, for example.  But they don't look like they are good at staying in place.

However, another dimension that needs to be considered is how much leeway wearing that swimsuit allows for physical activity without experiencing embarrassing swimsuit malfunctions.

Obviously, one-piece suits are relatively risk-free, as long as the boobs are substantially covered; but bikinis are less so.  I prefer the more secure step-in bikini bottoms, as opposed to string bikinis.  There's no risk of a string becoming loose or untied.  As for the top, the same rule applies: no ties but fasteners.  Hopefully, the fasteners are secure enough to avoid any accidents or slippage.

I suggest that swimsuits be color-coded  with these security ratings on the tag to distinguish them:

Green --  Safe for heavy activity: surfing, beach volleyball, running

Yellow -- Safe for moderate activity: walking, wading, playing frisbee

Orange -- Safe for mild amounts of activity

Red -- To be worn when sedentary activity such as sunning is expected.  May not be legal on some beaches

Surfer Girl

It's hard to believe it, but the Beach Boys' Surfer Girl is over 50 years old!  Surf on, surfer girls!  It's okay to surf with the guys too!

Some Peoples' Choices

Water Slide Debacle

My ex-boyfriend and I went to a water park along with a few family members. I was wearing some cute jean shorts and we decided to get on the water slide.

Now this slide is kind of like a skater ramp (you slide down and you go back and forth until you stop and no one else could go until you get off, so there were a lot of folks waiting.  Well we had our double raft and they drop with us on the slide.

On the way down I felt something (part of the slide) hook onto the pocket of my jean shorts.  My speed caused my shorts to rip, exposing my behind.

At the bottom when I stopped, I found my shorts fell away.  I was so embarrassed that I sat there trying to think of a way to hide my hiney from all the spectators as well as my boyfriend.

There weren't any nearby restrooms so I had no choice but to tell him to cover me. I stood up and we both carried the raft behind me in hopes of hiding my butt cheeks.

Luckily he had a pair of boxers in a bag so I changed into those.  I should've worn a bathing suit instead of those jean shorts with pockets!
