She is! The Swede and I don't swim at my club--there's a nice gathering of fit young adults at the Swede's local pool. (So why not swim there? It's far away, and not as nice a pool.) The women might be gay married nuns, but I think I can work with that; at least I won't be fighting the law.
I've killed a flirt between PG and Ogged
You seem to have very complicated feelings about the Labs-PG-Ogged triangle. Do you want in, or what?
The Labs-PG-Ogged-SomeCallMeTim love quadrilateral!
I remember a Dilbert where they were talking to some guy in the cafeteria and asked him what his job was, since he never seemed to work. He said, "I wrote the accounting software back in the 80s. It's millions of lines of undocumented spaghetti logic." Dilbert's tie sprang straight out or something -- while gotos may be bad practice, they can be good for job security.
In conclusion, I think you're ultimately better off with the short and curvy.
You seem to have very complicated feelings about the Labs-PG-Ogged triangle.
Not really. Just indulging in a little "Is it me? Is it me?" after apparently stopping two threads. Although I will admit that I increasingly suspect that you are (per Bridget Jones' Diary) and Islamo-fuckwit, whose goal is to teach American womanhood to disdain a good man's (i.e., FL) plain love. Boo, Islamofuckwit, boo!
Plus, I'm hoping I made the first use of "cock-block" on Unfogged.
Do you want in, or what?
No, I know when I'm outclassed. I feel very unmanned by the realization that FL must be on the order of 6'4". That just seems wrong for someone with a PhD in philosophy.
Don't worry, Tim. That Islamofuckwit won't get to me. I just want ogged for the sex. And the cock jokes. And to make FL jealous. It's FL who I really love. Sigh ...

I agree. Fontana's height is pretty inconsiderate. But pg is tiny, and her misguided love for Labs won't survive all the "look at that funny couple" comments they'll get. Let Labs run off with Jane Galt, and have enormous children, and learn about the hollow pain that is libertarian love (sorry, Labs).
you are...an[] Islamo-fuckwit
This might be true; it might be subconsciously true. And is it simply a coincidence that the co-bloggers who post least have Dedicated Entertainment Units?
I just want ogged for the sex. And the cock jokes. And to make FL jealous. It's FL who I really love.
This is shaping up to be the best first date in history.
I was so not touching that one. In the interest of profgrrrrl's good name, I'll assume it was a cross-country train trip with her ex-husband.
And didn't Wolfson say recently that he had a girlfriend (or was hanging out with some young lady)? Am I really getting less action than Ben "riding the rules of grammar to world domination" Wolfson? Really?
Not a bad guess, ogged. All but one of those states is a state in which I had sex with ex (who I met at the tender age of 18). Only 4 of them are states involving sex with other people (3 of the ex states -- in which I actually lived, as well -- and one other state). I travel and move a lot. What can I say?
Please note number 7, in the interest of my good name.
Hee. I didn't realize he was being selective about commenters. I talked him out of it. You are free to comment there anonymously now should you choose.
I apologize to everyone (except Ben) for being so lame. It recently occurred to me that as the author of the blog, I could go in and edit Wolfson's comments: adding typos, misplacing punctuation, etc. But I didn't have the heart. God damn, but it would have been funny.
So you're apologizing for a lameness that, by its nature, we wouldn't have known about had you not apologized for it? (And do you really think I wouldn't have been able to figure that out?)
by its nature, we wouldn't have known about had you not apologized for it?

For the record, I haven't made any changes to anyone's comments: all Ben's mistakes are his own.
[Ok, I corrected spelling for someone once last year.]
OK, this is an entirely random, out-of-context thing, but I'm totally amused by it and needed to tell someone who wouldn't care. In the ... oh, 2 or 3 hours since I put a sitemeter on it and a link to Hedgical Trevor's blog he has had 75 hits.
Hedghogs, apparently, work as well as cock jokes for attracting crowds.
I put up a post noting that fisting and cumshots don't make even a cameo appearance in Foucault's History of Sexuality, and my traffic surged for the week that post was on the front page.
That wasn't my intention, of course, but now that I know...
Someone above cmmented on the "ring check." Can you do a ring check in the pool, or do the rings come off? This might make the whole asking random but beauteous swimmer woman thing even more fraught with peril and mystery.
That makes sense. But, I can remember a very passionate kiss from college, and I can remember her next words "Do you see this ring, with the red stone, that's my engagement ring..." Had it been a diamond I think I wouldn't have found myself in that situation. So there's a whole other type of error that can occur.
In fact, she's on the short side, and a bit curvy, but it's a really luscious short and curvy.
Oh ... so you mean she looks like me? ;)

No way Larmore is that tall. Plus he believes in Natural Law (TM) which is both silly and unsexy.
