JawJaw, I've been talking about camping and you're going to Ireland?!?!? Geez, I am SO envious, you lucky gal you!!!!! Have a great time on the trip. You've just GOT to post a trip report after you get back. What cities will you visit? How long will you be gone? Should trip questions be in another post?

And keep your eyes out for hunky men, you never know when you might run into someone nice. At the airport, at a pub, anywhere.

It's a hard choice to decide you want to do the "couple thing" again. But when it's good, life seems complete, so I think it's worth the risk. It is a bit harder the older we get because, as you said, where do you go to meet people? Bars have never been my "thing." I'm involved in lots of outdoor activities, but the men I meet there all seem to have wives waiting at home. And like you said, that means they are OFF limits!!!

So - jump in and test the water. If you need a life jacket I've got a few extras. Wish I knew some nice single guys to introduce you to, they'd be very lucky. Keep us posted!

Thank you kindly Whirlwind. It's funny because everybody who finds out I'm going to Ireland says the same thing, "Why? Are they out of blarney?" Now why would they say that? LOL!

I'm so excited I'm having trouble focusing on stuff. Except work of course...(Dotsie may be listening in)...

JJ

I have been laughing out loud since the very beginning of this post. Y'all are crazy.

I know this guy with black, slicked back hair. He's a great singer, swirls his hips around like there's no tomorrow and some say he's dead. But others think he's still alive. Ya interested jawjaw? I can tell you where he was last seen.

Go to this link for the real answer:

So says you...

Now Dotsie everyone knows that Elvis is still alive and manages the Burger King on the Las Vegas Strip...

Hannelore, it's 90's daytime but a lovely 66 at 1:15am now How's the weather by you?

Oops, missed your post Meredith. In two days, I'll be here more often. Got my 7 month old grandchild here, and she is melting our hearts to putty.

Our August is like fall weather...crazy; but good golf weather.

JJ, I know you once said you'd never play golf again...but there are tons of single men on those courses, that just play golf because they haven't found the right women yet. You know how that saying goes...?

Do you play golf, or do you still have sex?

Golf, smolf JJ. Just go sit in the Country Club at a table near the windows and sip a mint julip and look gorgeous, queenly and available, let them come to you. No neded to tromp around the golf course. Too much work.

I say find a man closer to homne. The Emerald Isle is fine to visit, but I bet they don't know 'grits' from 'goose.'

The best place to find a man is right here in good old U.S. of A. You can find a ton of 'em at your local Home Depot. Lowes is a long shot. Most guys there are married, but Home Depot is full of single "helpful" males.

Just go in there close to closing time and look "confused". Guys with advice and "anything" else you might need will come out of the woodwork (literally).

An American male beats an Irish leprechaun any day.

I met mine on the bus... he was my driver. I highly recommend bus drivers! They're definitely not like the stereotype!
