Four Ways to Impress a Woman

Its possible there is a girl you are aiming to put the moves on and you just want to learn how to make an impression on a girl. Typically, I do not suggest you try to impress women.

Dealing with Anger & Frustration

In your everyday life, you may get impatient with the person on the highway in front of you, the checkout attendant at the grocery store and the car in front of you who ordered the ultra-supreme wash that takes twenty minutes. Watching the clock in the mid-afternoon, wishing it was five o’clock and time to go home. The minds tell you that you would be happier somewhere else, you are going to be late or, worse yet, someone is going to be mad that you kept them waiting. You forget that there is nothing you can do to escape the situation that is causing the delay.

Sex & Pizza... Pizza & Sex

So, yes this one is about the old cliche... "Pizza is a lot like sex. When its good its really good, when its bad its still pretty good." I always enjoyed how Adam Carolla of the early Love Line years would yell at befuddled young women who had yet to understand this 'fact' of our existence, "There is no bad pizza! Did you hear me! There is no bad pizza. For a guy, any sex is good sex." While I do get the underlying truism of this belief, as a lady I have doubted its Universal validity. Please let me explain...
