Yes I am still about, just suffering from a bit of blog block, or perhaps it is just that I am too lazy to dig into the deep inner workings of my brain to come up with something 'deep' as I had promised.

I do seem to jump from one thing to another - and am easily distracted.

Things I have 'discovered' this weekend.....

The Colts look really good, but if you want to see a pro game you might just go buy from the scalpers outside the gate unless it is a playoff game. Apparently the scalpers were having a hard time getting face value even for the Monday night game last week. Either way I had a good time and have no (major) regrets.

My Tivo can now play Podcasts and streaming audio feeds from live365 - listening to Jack Benny at the moment (I love old time radio). This is in addition to being able to use a Y account to do some other things (all of these things require you to be running software on a computer in the house).

Which is how I discovered that my Affairlook name is taken on the big Y by someone over in europe - ah well - not like I have a million people looking ot chat with me - I did discover my nickname was available on the program that starts with an M so I snagged that name (we must be obscure ya know).

And lastly I have discovered I have a headache - so its 2 ibuprophen for me and off to bed. Of course this won't appear until some time later today - but as of this writing it is 1am Eastern - nite all.

(added this morning - I need to append every blog post with a disclaimer noting I don't often use the spell check and it shows!!)

Get your mind out of the gutter!! I am talking about Ebay silly goose.

As of this writing I am bidding on Colts (NFL Football) tickets for this weekends game so that I can take one of my rugrats. Ok, and I wanna see them play too since this might be a very special season.

My GOSH what the cost is for these tickets. And I don't even have a pair yet.

I want to buy an Xbox too so I can resell it along with season tickets to any professional sports teams games. I'd be rich, rich I tell you!!

I really need to find something more interesting to post about, sports and video games are the kind of things most women are not interested in - as a matter of fact many that are married are here BECAUSE of sports and video games!!!

Ok, next post will be insightful, romantic, showing my inner self and how I am not your 'average' guy - I'm special and deep and know how to treat a woman.

Yup, that will be my next post, once I have secured these tickets.......

Ok, I'll admit it, I am being a bit lazy, but my time on here has been limited of late.

I do enjoy reading other folks blogs, I have to admit I don't go for the poetry or fantasy stories, I want to read about real life - be it relationships or just day to day life.

I know not near as many folks visit my blog as in the past but quite a few still do - so tell me where to visit - invite me to your blog - point me to a post you made in your blog recently or a long time ago that you would be interested in seeing my take on (or heck - want others to see since many will see the your reply here).

I hope you all hav ebeen doing well and if you feel I have ignored your blog then please accept my apologies and feel free to rip me a new one!!!

What a week.....

Hi there all - been a long long week and not a lot of it good. Not terribly bad either but oh the story I could tell if I didn't worry about revealing too much about my real life at times.

As it is I haven't had time to write or visit blogs like I would have liked to but I wanted to post something.... So I visited the profile of one of my latest visitors and altered the "about me" portion and wanted to try it out on you...

I'm your typical upbeat personality, proud of the choices I've made and the life I lead. I'm an easy going, nonjudgmental guy who's looking for new things to try out. I'm freshly paroled from a horror-show relationship. I can breathe again! I like to meet new friends and gain new perspectives. When I go out, I go with the flow, and end up where I end up. Experience-wise, I've done a few things, but I want to do a lot more. I've always been good at turning nothing into something great. When I'm out driving I feel completely free in my car. I'm in the mood for an outgoing woman to shake my world up a little. I look forward to whatever life brings. I'm not changing my life, because things are great the way they are. If you contact me please give me some time to reply as I'm pretty busy.

So waddaya think???

Oh and I know you will never read this but Ray6851, I'm glad you give great head and swallow but I am straight.... just like it says in my profile ya goofball - so thats why I ignored your e-mail and denied your network request!!!

(btw - tried to post this last night and the blogs were down it seems - grumble grumble...)

Dear Affairlook - I would like to be able to block certain members from appearing on my searches....

I am tired of seeing the same profiles over and over again and having to weed through them to look for new members to check out (so I can again be dissapointed because they don't 'match' what I am looking for - or, more likely, I don't match what THEY are looking for!! ).

I know that I just need ot keep looking, but I am frankly getting to the point where I might have to just try the 'shotgun' message approach - when I send out a lot of messages in one sitting and see if I get any replies. I need to note that the few times that I have done that I have read EVERY profile in detail and made a point to comment on each one so the person on the other end knows I am not just throwing things against the wall to see if they stick (although I guess it is pretty close to that!!).

Happy Turkey Day for my fellow bloggers in the USA and have a great Thursday to everyone else

Cam across a site today that lets you make up your own South park style characters and while I am not a huge fan of the show - the characters have a funny quality to them.

So here is what might be me sporting an Affairlook t-shirt, and yeah, I'm too cool.

Online 'love' - why it is so easy to fall for someone.

I highly doubt this will be news to a lot of you reading this, but I feel like writing it down if nothing else for myself.

Some folks it seems wonder how they can 'fall' for someone they meet online, its very simple actually when you think about it.

When you first meet someone oneline you feel anonymous - you will tell people you meet online things you would never tell someone in person. You open up and share, which in some ways can be a good thing, in that it allows you to talk about things you might otherwise keep bottled up inside.

The 'problem' comes as time goes on. Suddenly you are letting this person (persons) see more and more of yourself, and they are probably doing the same. You continue on this road, why? In part because you again think to yourself that you will never meet this person(s), you can walk away and they will never really know who you are, and if you say something they don't like, so be it, there are lots of other people out there to talk to.

But somewhere in there you cross the line, you invest just enough in that other person that suddenly you are looking at the possibility of meeting....

If you are single - you could indeed meet your match using this method - I know of at least two now married couples that met over the net and I am sure their relationship is much stonger than many others out there because they started out revealing things about themself without near the fear of rejection that others might have had meeting face to face for the first time - but if you are married - beware - these relationships can end up ruining your current relationship and then when you pursue your 'dream' with this online person you discover that they were not all they had seemed, they just knew what to say to get what they wanted.

I don't speak from personal experience, but I have sure seen it happen a hell of a lot on the net over the last 10 years.

In some previous posts I have mentioned some of the things I do when not reading the blogs or checking out the profiles here.

I have a website that I actually make a little money off of and try to keep up to date (nope - not gonna even list a clue to it here - I try to keep my Affairlook and other activities seperate).....

I play online poker and occasionally other online multi-player games at places like Y.

I read a lot of news just so I can pretend to be smart and know what is going on in the world.

So what kinda things do you do? hmmm???

This is a bit of a rant - I would suggest those not interested in reading the ramblings of a mad-man move on to a much more sex-related post like this one that I also wrote today:

How I Swap Spit Errr I mean the Art of the Kiss

and now.....

Seriously, folks.... lighten up.

Many many moons ago I used to do video chatting with a program called CUSEEME. I started using it at least 10 years ago and used it for several years.

MANY people used it and pre-dated IM programs - you would have to ASK in chat for people's e-mail addys if you wanted to talk outside of th eprogram. Heck - I found out about ISeekU (Phonetic spelling of that IM program ya know) in 1997 from one of my CUSeeMe friends - and at that time none of the other programs existed (or at least weren't available to all for free).

In the course of using the video chat program I developed many close friendships, as with anything groups formed, friendships developed, I personally know of at least 2 marriages that came via people that met using the program.

Oh - and 'get togethers' started happening. Groups of people getting together and meeting in person.

I even went to one with a male friend I met using the program - he picked me up and we drove 12 hours to the appointed location and met 7 or 8 of these other folks we had known for years only via a small lil video window.

Guess what? I left that place and pretty much stopped talking to all of them. Did I dislike them? No. But the real life folks were just not the same as the people I had imagined all those years while chatting online with them. I do still talk to the guy I drove out with but as for the rest - not a word in years.

Fast forward a few years - I am involved in a BBS site (no - not here) - the community grows - people start having get-togethers all over the country... One is set for Chicago (no - not THIS site!!!) I am invited - do I go? Nope. Can't see doing it - not worth the potential down side.

So where am I going with with all of this? I'm not in any way knocking the group that got together recently - not one single bit - I was jealous in fact that they all were able to do it and I am glad that the core group seems to have come away feeling wonderful about the experience.

All I know is when you get too close to MANY people in an online community as a group - something always seems to come up and personalities clash and then others are expected to pick sides or defend people. Its nuts. Too many chefs, too many chiefs, yadda yadda - run away run away!!

Drama is not for me, I am here to meet people, preferably women but the guys I have communicated with on here are ok in a PURELY NON-SEXUAL way (lol). This site however is not going to take over my life - as a matter of fact IF (doubtful) I do again find someone close to me and things develop - then guess what? Chances are I will dissapear for at least some period of time.

What I won't do is I won't make an announcement. To me in MOST (not all) cases people announcing they are leaving is just a way to get attention - sorry - thats how I feel.

btw - as for the drama - give it a rest people - or take it OFF the blogs - no need to hash this stuff out publicly - or half publicly so that some of us know SOMETHING is up but no juicy details

thats it - sorry for the rant and I love you all!!*

*note to the men - umm - you know I don't really love you right??? cool

How I Swap Spit!! Errr.. I mean the Art of the Kiss

Well howdy their friends and blog neighbors....

I realize that 99% of you reading this are not going to look at my thoughts and think "wow - he knows what he is talking about!!" But I will try to make it an enjoyable read anyways.

Isn't kissing great? I LOOOVE it - love love love. If my partner is a 'good' kisser (that being a relative term) our kissing will drive both of us bonkers.

I find kissing so intimate, exploring someone's lips with mine - the interaction of our tongues.... and not just kissing on the mouth, exploring with my mouth, listening to my partner's breathing for the clues as to what she is enjoying.

The sound of a quick intake of breath is sure sign that she is enjoying whatever it is I am doing and THAT is such a turn on for me.

Earlobes, nape of the neck..... oh man I love to run my lips and tongue all over and then work my way back to her parted lips and see if she is more agressive with her own mouth now, have I had the desired effect?

On the down side - some women just don't kiss like me - or seem to be tense.... do you guys find kissing to be as erotic as me???

A little suggestion to those of you to keep in mind if and when you ever decide to pack up your Affairlook bags and leave, or delte one profile and creat another.

Make sure to delete the pictures in your profile before you go. If you have any 'albums' it seems they do not jsut vanish into thin air when you delte your account.

I say all this because I have someone in my network that is no longer a memeber (had?). This person had several albums and they are still very much visible in my network. So while they no longer can see them , anyone that was in her network can.
