have to agree with kris on that (though i would like to disagree just to decrease his chance of winning <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> ). chicks with brains are very very sexy. the brainier they are, ..... *drools* <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
on topic;
talk about bridging the gap, what i know works is the wisdom to shut up & let the other party talk/rant/bitch. i [nocando] u not! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> i find that if i am to shut my trap & let the other person mouth off, he/she would love to talk to me & fire away. of course, i won't go 'uh huh' or 'i agree with u' or 'yes, go on' or 'mm hmm' <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" /> that is so chauvenistic! if i disagree, i would let him/her finish then fire my volleys. that is my way of respecting their views as i do listen to them & take note of their words. of course, i may not be right as i do get some of my volleys back on my face. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />
kris, i like the quote about a young man with an old man in him. sounds like me! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> was old in thought when younger & as i get older i feel younger. to be cheesily honest, i don't feel older at all. just more aware of things. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> at 29, i still feel like a teenager stepping into 20's.
