So if I see a lady who is flashing a ring that is in a bar alone, I automatically think "Hey, steer wide of this one, it ain't what you want". Now before you shoot a bacardi 151 flamer at me, let me explain myself. If I'm at a bar, I don't check ladies fingers first, I do last. Hey, if a lady wants to strike up a conversation with me after batting around opening lines, I don't care if she has a ring on. But if they have the attitude of using the ring as a "pest repellent" then I am not going to bother since that is the same as wearing a neon sign that says "BUZZ OFF!" So ladies, please if you want to use a ring as a "pest repellent" and are going to play the field looking for "Mr. Right", buzz off, you irritate me. I don't like it when you advertize "come 'ere, come 'ere" and then say "get away, get away" (I think that Bill Cosby does it better in "adam and eve"). If you cruise the bars, you gotta take the good with the bad. Now you can shoot the 151 flamer if you want. "...where the antelope and teddy bears playyyy...." Peter Barada ima!pbear!peterb
