I just received this from a friend and thought it was worth sharing. I'm feeling kind of philosophical so forgive me for straying off swimming topics!
15 Things You Probably Never Knew or Thought About
1. At least 5 people in this world love you so much they would die for you.
2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way.
3. The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you.
4. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.
5. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
6. You mean the world to someone.
7. If not for you, someone may not be living.
8. You are special and unique.
9. Someone that you don't even know exists loves you.
10. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.
11. When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look: you most likely turned your back on the
world.
12. When you think you have no chance of getting what you want, you probably won't get it, but if you believe in yourself, probably, sooner or later, you will get it.
13. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks.
14. Always tell someone how you feel about them; you will feel much better when they know.
15. If you have a great friend, take the time to let them know that they are great.
A Minute: They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.
Take the time .. to live and love.
Rich,
The avatar is just wrong.
Today is Pearl Harbor day. Please take a moment to remember our military personnel, past and present, and give thanks for their sacrifices.
if you'd find it less intimidating. I could post my profile pic instead....:rofl:
I'm sure there are many men intimidated (and jealous) of what is in your avatar. :rofl: You musn't let petty jealously alter your patriotism.
I bet you look quite snazzy, Poolraat. Inspirational even! I seem to recall on that "ideal weight" thread that you were a tall lanky fellow. Better be careful, or I'll nominate you for "Best Butt." Geez, this thread is causing me to rack up posts. Frank will start counting again.

Breathe...just hink of it like this way...if you like her...you have to find out...you'll go nuts otherwise...

aint that the truth.. i was doing laps and couldn't stop thinking about manning up and asking her out. so i get out of the gym to the freezing cold, get in my car, put music on and txt msg her:
me: hey girl, doing anything sat?
her: not as of yet, whats up?
me: lets get together
her: possibly. give me a call
ok.... now what the hell does that mean?! :shakeshead:

Yeah what Beth says. She is obviously in favour of the idea of "going out" but perhaps would like to "talk" with you so you can sort it out. So give her a call tomorrow evening...no text.
PS don't forget to tell her she looks nice...say something: nice dress, nice shirt..like your hair like that etc...just don't say all of them or go over the top if she's in jeans and a t-shirt...
