"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Any recommendations for stylish digital cameras?

I was thinking about buying something like this (Sony):
Sony Cyber Shot DSC-T3
Sony Cyber Shot DSC-T1

They look really good (small, too), but they're really really expensive compared to other digital cameras that are in the same league, are they worth it?

Obviously style shouldn't be my only criteria. I'm not turned on by 8 megabyte pictures that show the pores in your skin, so to me there's no point in paying more for a "high quality" camera, I'm just in it for the memories... So what else do you guys think I should be looking for in a cam, besides style?

And what do you guys use (please mention the exact model name)?

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

The only problem I have with the Exilim's are that they use an internal battery - I prefer to have a camera that you can bring spare batteries along with - you never know when you'll run out and it's not difficult at all to leave 2 AA batteries in your car or pocket. I'd recommend the Fuji A303, I just bought one last week and am impressed with it so far... it's not "micro" like the Exilim's, and it's a little larger than the ELPH's, but not by much. Definitely check out Steve's Reviews here:

This site is a MUST for anyone even remotely considering purchasing a camera... see for yourself.

I have the sony T1. It's ****in awesome. It was also my first camera. But I'd like a camera that i could **** with the exposure time and a bunch of other cool settings, but this camera doesn't do that. It's just a small cool camera, which is good enough.

For the record, I got the Casio Exilim Ex-S100.

It was like love at first sight. All the other digicams are sh;t. Mine's THE sh;t.

Haven't tested it yet, I will tonight, though.

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Glad I could help! :)

Yeah I fell in love with the Exilim at first sight too. (I have the Ex-S3... http://www.steves-digicams.com/2003_reviews/exs3.html).

Of course, I had totally superficial reasons for wanting it (it was so tiny and flat it would fit in even my tiniest purse - god I'm such a girl) but I was also really impressed at how great the quality was.

And even though it has an internal battery, like diablo mentioned, it holds a charge for a pretty long time (and powers off after a while if left on accidentally).

And every time I whip it out to take a picture everyone "ooohs" and "aaahs" and says "that's such a cool camera!" which is just what an attention ***** like me needs. ;)
