"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Okay, it's been a helluva week for me regarding skiing. Last week I lost a ski whilst skiing the the light and fluffy duff at the local hill. I've spent 7 hours over three days looking for that fvcker. :cuss:

Guess I'll have to hike back up there when the snow melts. :up:

FYI, I am an AVID skier and been skiing for over 26 years. It's a HUGE part of my life and I've have some doozy wrecks over the years. But this one takes the cake. Now, I've broken skis before, but NOTHING like THIS!

Amazingly, I wasn't hurt. Walked away without any bumps or bruises. Absolute miracle. But the skis are another story!


Enjoy!!:D
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Haha, I love the dismount somersault off your planks!

So a buried rock just cracked both your sticks at the front binding mount on the landing?

I guess that's just an excuse to buy some better skis for b/c and next season, maybe some nice custom ones, as long as they're burly.

I had an epic day here in the CO last friday - probably one of my top 5 ever. 18+ inches in the trees, discovered some new hidden glades, and hucked a nice 10 foot boulder.
