"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."

To the moderators or the webmaster of the discussion forums:

Is there a way the entire thread can be updated (i.e., refreshed automatically to include the latest posts) whenever one clicks a thread? Or, do like CNN.com does and automatically update (refresh) every thread every 5 minutes or so?

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I have this happen sometimes too.

My theory is that it's a browser issue. some browsers will load a page you recently visited from the buffer instead of reloading from the site unless you click refresh.

Just a thought.
