"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.

Hey, just wondering what everyone's taste in music is. My personal favorite song is "Santa Monica" by Everclear. Mainly because the song reminds me of California and being able to just kick back with your girl on the beach. Followed up by "Say It Ain't So" by Weezer, mellow song always sets a good mood for me.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Anyone with any kind of taste in music likes Floyd. :up:
 

"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.

This is another great song written by Leon Russell and best known as performed by Donny Hathaway...A Song For You.

It's been covered by a ton of different people...but it sounds best done by Donny Hathaway and my current favorite singer, Elliott Yamin. He just did it live 2 nights ago in Washington D.C. I honestly haven't heard a voice like his since Stevie Wonder. His iTunes album download has that version of Whiter Shade of Pale that is just amazing. For anyone who loves Stevie Wonder or Donny Hathaway...or R&B/Soul music...the CD is awesome and well worth buying.

I guess my favorite song would have to be Don't look back by Boston. Silver medal would go to Reflection by Tool.

This is considering that I'm stuck on the island with the rest of the Lost survivors and I only had time to download one song on my Zen.

People still pay for music? Christ, in the last decade I've paid for 3 cd's out of pocket:

Tool - Lateralus

Tool - 10,000 Days

Glory Revealed (I bet you didn't think I'd listen to gospel music huh?)

Bird, I'll "borrow" The Elliot Yamin cd and give my opinion.

You can only get Whiter Shade of Pale on iTunes as a Bonus Track. It's my favorite song he's done. I had it on repeat for about 5 hours without getting sick of it, lol.

Some of the lyrics to the songs are kinda cheesy on the CD...but his voice is just amazing.

Um, I just "borrowed" Whiter shade of pale from somebody's computer and I have to admit it is good but I still like Annie Lennoxs' version better.

I'll admit Bird, Take my breath away and I'm the man are really good licks.

I really like all of the songs on the CD...and all of the bonus songs. There is a cover of Terence Trent D'Arby's Sign Your Name, Dr. Hook's Sharing The Night Together and even Phil Collins' Easy Lover. Search his name on YouTube and you can find a butt load of him singing. He tore it up on Moody's Mood For Love, Teach Me Tonight, If You Really Love Me, Somebody To Love...

Seriously...go do a YouTube Search...the boy can SANG. This DJ named BookerT (I think that was his name) calls him Brian McWhite...hehe.
