I am sorry this topic has absolutely nothing to do with swimming, but that is the weirdest thing that ever happened to me and who else would I share it with but my beloved swimming community :-)))
Anyways, here is what happened to me today.I went to Mall of America to do some shopping.I mean I finally set aside money to invest into something non-related to swimming.I am definitely not a shopaholic, but today I felt the urge to get into some new clothes.Well, afew hours after browsing that huge concentration of temptations I gathered quite e few purchases.To top it off I decided to get myself some cool jeans, so I ended up in one of the clothing shops.I had some trouble finding my size and I caught an eye of A GORGEOUS young lady that was working there and asked her to help me out(well, because she was so good-looking, I obviously had even more trouble finding stuff :-))).She turned out to be a sweet-heart and pretty much guided me through all my shopping experience at this little shop and I finally had 2 pair of jeans that I liked after trying out thousands of them(well, not exactly that many, but you know what I mean).So it was time for me to go, but I kinda felt reluctant to leave without having a little chat with that cutie.So I asked her name and stuff and we had a pleasant little conversation.Man, she told me to stop by some time to say hello :-)))Maybe she liked me?'Cause I surely liked her, lol:))
Anyways we finished talking, smiled to each other, wished each other good night and all those things and I headed out home thinking about nothing but that girl I just met.
Ok, guess what happened when I got home?I realised that the girl totally stole my brains at the moment when we were talking, BECAUSE I LEFT THE STRORE WITH THE JEANS IN MY HANDS FORGETTING(I MEAN FORGETTING!!!!) TO PAY FOR THEM!!!
OH my GOD!!!I never shoplift or anything of a kind and never ever anything like that happened to me!
Should I go back there tomorrow and pay or is that going to look weird?The most amazing part is that the jeans had those magnetic devices but they obviously never got activated or whatnot...
WOW, I mean WOOOOOOOOOOW.I must have really liked the girl, 'cause my brain was obviously paralized for that moment...I promised her I would stop by again :-)))She told me when she works.I was trying to be a decent guy and not jump into the whole "Can I have your number" thing right away, lol.
Man, all I have to say is : women are trouble , or from the woman's view on the situation it could be: men are so stupid!!!
WOMEN,DON'T READ THIS.
Men the solution to an annoyed spouse is FOOT RUBS. My wife says it's not fair,that I have discovered the "cheat codes",but it solves almost any problem.
Oh my goodness, oh my gosh! I never realized...Heather, I take back all those less than flattering things I posted about butterfly, Ohio State football and what I was thinking, but not posting, about putrid Cubs baseball! Just keep those guns holstered and I'll even...enter a 50 fly and use dolphin kick sometime in the next year...
Fort, insluting a woman's broad shoulders is not recommended unless you want those big shoulders which are attached to big arms and fists to come flying at you.
Fort, beware of the FlyQueen's guns... When the safety is off, they can do some damage :dedhorse:

Allen. Now I respect and admire and somewhat aim to emulate you in Breaststroke. Footrubs however, are my domain, and part of my "SwimStud" arsenal. I do amateur theraputic ones though not just "honey willya" foot rubs. You cannot be the authority on both so you have to pick.
:rofl:
I like your signature poolrat. It reminds me of one of the deepest unsolved riddles in modern philosophy......the riddle being: If a man is talking in the woods and his wife is not there to hear him, then is he still wrong?Newmastersswimmer
My wife has ESP. She seems to know what I'm thinking even if I don't say it. So, I would hazard a guess that the answer is yes.
I try not to look at that SI issue. It always provokes a rant about how skinny and unrealistic the models are. They are, of course, we all know this. Nonetheless, one has to reassure the wife that the models are, in fact, quite ugly, while broad backs are, in fact, quite beautiful. They are, of course. Unless we're "wrong?"
My wife seems to prefer back rubs to foot rubs. Can't go wrong with this approach.
SI is (usually) one of the few publications that I don't have to censor too heavily for my 6 year old daughter, an avid SI fan, but there is no way I can explain the sense of the swimsuit issue. In a recent issue, I read a note under the masthead, listing a number to call if you'd like to skip that issue: an extra issue would be added to the end of your subsciption. I called and it is done.
Now, gentlemen, how brownie points do you think you would earn if you proactively skipped that issue? Just a thought...
Muppet:
It helps not to drool over the SI swimsuit issue too.
Last time I looked at the this issue, it looked like the models had been lobotomized. Vacuous stares from all.
I have never bought or ogled the SI swimsuit edition.
Maybe the Swim Stud should submit his avatar pic to SI so all the ladies can ogle and drool.

i miss Dima
where is he?
women are trouble
they can be quite expensive
are they cheaper to rent or to own?
ande
I too wonder where dima went. I know he at one time mentioned that he was wondering how to get scholarships to stay in school, and I assumed, this country. He did sort of disappear. Maybe we should start a world-wide thread looking for him.

Me either. It randomly shows up every winter along with that week's SI. :groovy: I usually look through once and put it on the shelf until my dad asks to see it. He's the one ogling over it.
Aside from SwimmieMuppet's#1Fan, none of you would believe me if I was more captivated by the scenery/locales and the photography than the women blocking the view. 2005 was a good year for me - had some great shots of my homeland (Portillo Ski Resort, Chile) and of the land of my last name's origins (Dalmatian Coast, Croatia).
