Do you have a link to an article?

For erikman: And they claimed to have worked so hard in finding a real schmo during the interviews, then all of a sudden he finds Matt in a baskeball game? Does SS army have a sixth sense about schmos?

Thanks for your post.

I heart Bebo

I agree 100% with her statements. I could care less if he knows, it's very entertaining and I dont find myself yelling at the screen so it's also relaxing.

I'd say hey how's it going dude and talk about basketball or football or something like that.

CSTL: Basketball is probably a sore subject for Matt now.

Thanks for your post... Joe don't know.

You like your men pre-prodded and sharp. Got it.

Thanks for your post Bebo.

Neff don't do cattle prods, got it. How do you feel about latex appliances?

Thanks for the post.

I'd ask if I could "adopt him". I'm old enough to be his mom so I don't think he'd go out with me but I would be willing to take him in here in Hawaii if he wanted a vacation. I don't care if he knows or not either, I just repsect a man of his age with some manners and morals.

Whoa is me: He'd probably let you adopt him. I picture him looking at you like he looked at Ashleigh in the hot tub.

Thanks for your post.

You are so sweet to say that and I like the thought of that look (dirty old lady that I am) coming my way from him. HELP I am one sick, twisted individual. Thanks also for the warm welcome.

outside a dog, a book is man's best friend, inside a dog it's too dark to read-Groucho Marx

Sick and twisted? No. Dream big I say.

After all, Matt has big hands, big feet and is a tall guy!

Well my son is the same age as Matt and he says I'm sick and twisted for my constant desire to rob the cradle. Especially someone his age. At least I don't go after males younger than my kids--that's something isn't it?

You are too funny- I like that in a person.

If you need me you can find me --fantasizing about my reality so I can realize my fantasy......

Thank you. You're funny too. I'll have to quote you with:

"Fantasizing about my reality so I can realize my fantasy."

Thank you, too.
Quoting me with my own quote? Please feel free to do so. I am sure I have plenty more from somewhere in my half asleep brain where that came from.

If you need me you can find me --fantasizing about my reality so I can realize my fantasy......

I meant quoting you in my everyday life, like with the girls at the office and such. Yes, send me more. I'm insatiable that way.

"More brains!" - Night of the Living Dead

OHHHH...Must have had a blonde moment there (which I am so no offense to blondes is intended -it's just an expression-lighten up or I'll be forced to quote Marilyn Monroe) or it could have been the wee hours in which I read that. Or both. Or something entirely different, but I digress (which I'm prone to do).
Will let you know when I come up with further thoughts or revelations.

I would tell him how much I loved him on the show. If he didn't want to talk about it, I'd respect that and give him his space.

Schnookie: Well... that would only take about five minutes. What would you do with the other hour and 55 minutes?

Thanks for your post.

LOL. Oh yeah, I forgot we are stuck for 2 hours in there.

I'd talk about Brian's pixalated man-boobs

I’d ask/talk to him ‘bout Jesus for as long as he’d let me, or until he delivered a Dr. P Sumo Slam!!

He could be Jewish?! Fireworks!

I once took a car for a test drive with a Jewish salesperson, this guy in a semi almost hit me, then I said, "Jesus Christ" - it's like a reflex for me. The salesperson got very sullen and pouty for a while. It didn't hit me as to why until later, and then I wondered how with that I offended him.

Maybe he thought you were an anti-SEMIte. Ha, get it, semi almost hit you...

Even if Matt has Jewish blood in him, I don't get the sense he's rooted in the faith.

"Maybe he thought you were an anti-SEMIte."

Oh God, that couldn't be further from the truth. Nice play on words though.

being trapped in an elevator with ANYONE would cause me to lose my mind. I'd probably treat him nicely, or just not be able to talk to him unless he started the conversation because I'd be too busy trying to figure out how to get out of this stuck elevator..

So Oceans,
I get the feeling from your post that when someone starts off a hypothetical with "So you're stuck on a desert island with no human contact at all and.." you'd reply with "Wait a minute, that's not even possible."
Am I a little warm, or way off?
-Neffer

You're way off.
The thing with being stuck in an elevator with someone I've never met before kind of scares me. If it was in a large room, I would be fine, but since an elevator is rather.. Small, I'd be rather creeped out, unless it was like a frieght elevator, then I think I could manage to be okay. But a regualr elevator would have me feeling rather claustraphobic.
