This is your brain on love .

More 100% accurate than amusing.

Very interesting article. They make reference to eHarmony a few times. Interesting, as that's how I met my current significant other. So far it's going well. We hit 1 year next month.

My goddaughter got married a few years ago to a guy she met on the Internet. There is something to be said about sharing thoughts - sight unseen - before the first actual meeting ever takes place.

I recall the time my cousin set me up with a blind date. We were supposed to eat and then go to a show. My blind date was dressed alright but looking at the way she ate her food got me sick to my stomach so I made excuses and went home.

Might I ask how, specifically, she ate it? Was there a total lack of utensils or did it perhaps involve unhinging her jaw?

I submit that she was from Texas, these biotches are voracious!

OK gentlemen!!

I'll try and present this in an old western way. Imagine an old coal fired steam locomotive out in the badlands being pursued by bandits who are intent on killing everyone on board.

The only hope is that the guy shovelling the coal does so fast enough for the train to get away.

That is the way this woman shovelled food into her mouth and swallowed it without hardly any chewing at all. Now lots of guys get turned on by such a sight but it literally made me want to puke.

What a mental image. I probably would have been disgusted as well.

My fossilized brain can not remember the exact year of another strange incident in my life but I might have been between 35-40. A co-workers relative was appearing with his band at a bar on Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge. We found a table and I went to the bar to get our drinks.

While I was waiting for the bartender to wait on the customer in front of me; a woman ( who looked pretty good but not stunning ) walked right up to me and said " I want to have your baby! ". I felt like Hulk Hogan had just punched me in the gut. When I finally spoke I said; " I'm sorry I don't know you, I can not father children not knowing what is going to happen to them " and she walked away.

When I got back to the table I told my co-worker what had just happened and quite naturally he did not believe me. I tell the youngsters in my family that being with a bad woman is worse than catching a disease. One bad woman can ruin your life forever. A good friend of our group killed himself over a bad woman. Such things leave a lasting impression.

If you find yourself being the object of a good woman's affection cherish her, be true to her, and show her that you appreciate her every day!!

Something similar to this happened to my father. He was a high school band director at the time. When I was in high school I had a best friend whose little sister (by 2 years) fancied me a bit. Well.. that's actually an understatement. She was more like a stalker for a while.

At any rate, the year after I graduated high school she became part of my father's high school band. One morning before school started she strutted into my father's office and proclaimed that she was having my baby.

I wasn't present, but secondary sources tell me that my father's face turned three different shades of red, green, and white before he realized the young lady was announcing her intention, and not an imminent birthing event.
