Especially if you told her straight away not to send .docx files. ;-) Only about 1 to 5% of those that ask her to dance will get the opportunity. Most likely the average guy will get shot down quite rudely in front of her girlfriends in such a scenerio, but that's another thread. > Or any of a thousand other scenarios where it's a bad idea for 95% > of the world to think you're a jackass. Most of the populace holds that opinion of everyone else of the populace regardless of the circumstances at any one time so I would bet that more than 50% of the time someone thinks another is a jackass. At least we can give them a reason to *know* we're a jackass. :-D - Nate >> -- Wireless | Amateur Radio Station N0NB | Successfully Microsoft Amateur radio exams; ham radio; Linux info @ | free since January 1998. http://www.qsl.net/n0nb/ | "Debian, the choice of My Kawasaki KZ-650 SR @ | a GNU generation!" http://www.networksplus.net/n0nb/ | http://www.debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
