[mikegi]

She's the very definition of "seductive". Wow.

[Denver Ditdat]

I love you man!

But not in the homo way.

LOL, and ditto!

I remember a thread from a year or so ago where someone posted a picture of an attractive 40-something woman at a media event. There were lots of drooling responses until it was pointed out that the woman in question was Sheryl Crow, at which point the venom really began to flow.

[wildbill]

All you'd have to hear is that whining drawl of the 'Seven Sisters' schools to know that she'd be a pain in the a$$.

[John Robertson]

Thanks. Have a great day.

[sausageseller]

" Catherine who?"

"Zeta schmata"

[smonk]

why won't anyone push my stool in for me?

[WhiteGuy]

Be honest. Be men.

Maureen is hot.

I really don't care what she does for a living or where she works.

I don't care who she votes for or why.

She looks great.

Upon a cursory first glance, I would agree with your observation, as Ms. Dowd cuts a striking figure. However, a few seconds of closer inspection reveals on that woman's face what you would otherwise know only from her prose: she is as cold as liquid nitrogen, and disconsolate by any means known to man. Her laughter is mockery, her glee is scorn, and her wordplay a tapestry of repressed anger. I have known numerous women like this - mainly from having being a single man in New York and Boston. The bartender's glare is an admonition: "Stay away, pal, if you know what's good for you."

[John Robertson]

quite astute.

but recall: i was talking about "at a glance."

[andy58-in-nh]

I was talking about "at a glance."

I understand. But if there are any men out there whom the benefit of my experience might save from weeks of agony (or worse), I would be cruel not to share.
