lol I can see why lol, but can't think of anywhere else I'd rather be, other than maybe Oregon or Washington State.

freebird said:That's why they call this "Tornado Alley" lol. I suppose it's like everything else, whatever you get used to is what you're comfortable with. Not to say that I'm comfortable with tornado's, but I can deal with them on an occasional basis.lol
jamespowers said:Occassionally!? Uh, no thanks. I've seen The Wizard of Oz enough times already.
Why is it that everytime I see your name it reminds me of this:

last weekend i was watching a movie with this girl at her house...shes in my acting class...anyway she was stressing over her ex treating her terribly...i turned off the movie, put in a Brian Mcknight CD and asked her to dance...we did...very simple slow dance but really nice...to ease her mind i guess...
that count? ...for anything vintage? for anything, period?
That's so sweet! I had one or two of those experiences - you're right, they definitely are so much more special to remember.PS said:i had this happen in college, his name was Stephen. we were both bored at a frat party we'd been lured into. instead he took photos of me all night and when we decided to chuck the whole event he took me back to his room and we danced to old records. i couldn't believe that in '00 someone thought to bring their record player to the dorms. its one of my loveliest memories. i wish i knew what happened to him. we were strictly platonic but he made me feel wonderful that night and on many occasions after. no one else understood the significance of just listening to those records or slow dancing with out ending up between the sheets. but i will always treasure that memory.

CharlesB said:A bit of both...
If there's a dance floor I'm on it
If there's a gal in front of the door I'll open it
If theres a raunchy bawdy and inappropriate joke...I'll make it!
LizzieMaine said:I don't consider myself "old fashioned" as much as I consider myself *square*, and proud of it. I still believe in all that stuff I learned in Girl Scouts, and I do so without a trace of irony. I do my duty, punch the clock, pay my taxes, take my responsibilities seriously, never try to cheat the system, obey the speed limit, and always vote. I've never been drunk, never used any illegal substance, don't believe in rebellion for the sake of rebellion, and never go over 14 items in the express line. I've got no interest at all in living on the edge -- I'd much rather stay in the reasonable middle. And I'm not trying to prove anything by this, challenge anyone, or make any grand social statement -- it's just the way I am. And if that makes me old-fashioned, well, go ahead and call me Grandma.

John in Covina said:I'd say I was a mix of past and present.
John in Covina said:For those that are proponents living in the present and fully embrace the fads and changes in values, attitudes, fashion and technology often place a high value on HIPNESS. With that they seem to often cut themselves off from the past and undervalue the past with a disdain for any sentimentality for the past. I think they lose history and can easily fall into the "doomed to repeat it" segment of humanity.
Forgotten Man said:Old fashioned in the sense I act like an old man... even though I'm 30 years old.
Miss_Bella_Hell said:However, if a woman was insulted, all a man has to do is apologize and not do it again. Manners go both ways after all.
jamespowers said:Apologize for having good manners!? That's standing manners on their head it seems to me.
I can see it now. "I apologize for having manners and openign this door for you. I'll try to be a boor next time and slam it in your face like I would anyone else." :eusa_doh:
