Gees, we could really use some guy advice here too ya know?

Oh yeah, *as if* we're really all that tough to figger out. :-) What part of "show up nekkid, bring beer" is such a mystery??

But seriously... For many many guys (all the decent guys, anyway) making the first move to express interest in a girl is really hard to do. Most of the time it almost requires some hint of interest on the girls' part to get us over the hurdle. Even a smile or some eye contact, but better yet some idle chitchat... or then there's the showing up with beer part. That works too. :-)

You got that right, brother!

Or maybe an invitation to play some backgammon.

Okay, first I'm telling Rosie to slap you and not listen to the first half and last sentence of what you said.

Then I'm gonna say ya did real good on the middle part.

And you wonder why the girls you're around are always likin' the bad guys. Hello.

So, are you having a successful evening yet?

Thanks...here's hoping there's some interest on his side! I've been rehearsing about a zillion scenarios for the conversation with his sister and/or a conversation with him. Hopefully ONE of them will stay in my mind when I'm there Saturday. If nothing else, honest blurting may get me somewhere, I dunno!
