"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.

Recently there was news on television, which for me wasn't surprising, since I long knew that Google is a CIA controlled corporation, and Chrome is a dangerous browser with security holes. From my experience as web admin I knew that more than half of my visitors are using Chrome, the rest use Firefox, Opera, Safari, Internet Explorer, and other browsers. Personally I stick to the old school, and since the days of Netscape, I prefer the classic, I use Firefox. Recently I switched to the 64-bit version of Firefox, the Waterfox. Mic and conversation listening on mobile devices is what I offer as a service on Symbian, Android, and iOS platforms. I myself have one of such services installed on daughter's phone, great little thing, you get an idea of what is going on in the room - but you have to listen! I know that the CIA has keyword activation technology, and if someone says something that is not suppose to be said, someone would listen then.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Chrome is a hog on Mac, Windows, Android and Ubuntu. It's never touched my IPhone and never will.
