Attention basement dwellers: your ideal woman has arrived. And she’s everything you’ve been hoping for.

Meet Cloud Girlfriend, a new virtual vixen who will woo you via Facebook wall posts. Think messages checking in on how your day is going and maybe even thanking you for the flowers you sent or some flirtatious witty banter for all your friends to see.

She’s fake. And she’s perfect.

I’ve been saying for some time that given the male/female demographic imbalance in China due to sex-selective abortion, their only hope to avoid massive societal disruption lies in robot hookers.

And I chose my verb very carefully in that statement.

Had a couple of Westpacs on that flat-bottomed, first in it's class POS:)

In very heavy seas, when the 2200 Marines would get to pukin' all over everthing, the sewage system would back up something fierce.

Puke and sh!t sloshing about the main deck ankle deep...had to close the mess decks.

Now, in deference to the poor kids of BLT 1/3 they had never seen a ship bigger than a row boat before...and the seas were 45ft 12hrs outside of Pearl Harbor. We had to medi-vac over 50 of 'em due to chronic sea sickness.

It was windy too:)

Would You Marry a Robot?

That depends. Will my robot wife get me tax breaks?

I hope my Navy and Marine brothers got to experience some of that. They have never mentioned it so I will have to bring it up next time they start the “You weren't tough enough for the Corps or smart enough for the Navy so the Army made you an officer” fightin words.

Maybe not, but you can program her to do your laundry... :)

Dad got us a beta-model Nannybot after Mom left us. As luck would have it, it was basically built on a reconfigured “Bambi 2030” platform and I found a way to access her original programming.

Dad sent her back when he caught us in bed together but I still have some cherished memories.

Heh. I guess I was way ahead of the curve when I wrote in my sixth-grade “year book”” “Hi 21twelve - we had lots of fun - see you around over the summer! - Love Carla”. Even used my best fake girl writing with hearts over the “i”s.

This is an old science fiction story come true. I recall a first person narrative of a guy lamenting how his pal fell for some kind of fake woman, an android or something. He goes on about it, then at the end he rhapsodizes about his REAL girlfriend who is not to be compared with such fakery. Of course, we are given to understand that he is enjoying the same delusion.

Yes, but if you de-friend her, you will have to give her your house and pay alimony the rest of your life.

Then next thing you know you'll find your virtual pet rabbit boiling in the pot.
