Would you want your significant other to wear sexy underwear for you knowing you look forward to the evening ahead?? ;-)

OK, call me anything you like, I would have gone for the slumber party with Britney.

I will leave now, with that thought dancing in my head, pushing all thoughts of work out of my mind until at least lunchtime...

Yep... VERY sexy underwear. I would think a guy would like a woman more with some decolletage than her being completely in the buff. After all, something should be left to one's imagination BEFORE turning up the heat in bed... :)

"Some Men Would Do Just About Anything To Be Invited to This"

Bah I ain't saying I would do anything for a ticket.

However, "whacking" (as in the Soprano's context) Michael Moore or some other Hollywood lefty is not necessarily a deal-breaker either.

One is half-way in already. Just push her in, jump in after and lock the doors.
Less of a hassel than trying to talk the other girls into getting in.
