Straight hair vs. Curly hair
Posted: 7/26/2009 7:53:15 AM
Straight, curly, or bald. It's all good to me. I look at the personality first, although physical attraction DOES have to fit in there somewhere, of course.

Libraries v. bookstores
Posted: 7/26/2009 7:49:25 AM
I love bookstores and libraries, and the ones I go to don't enforce strict no talking rules. However, conversation should be kept fairly quiet-within reason-out of consideration for others I feel. Would love to meet a potential date there, but it hasn't happened yet.

If you were a book, what would the title be?
Posted: 6/15/2009 7:37:48 PM
My Point is, and I Do have One!- already taken by Ellen. My Life as a Woman-already taken by Roseanne. Or Born Talking-already taken by Joan Rivers! My own creation: "Dynamic Dini's Diary". Okay, just trying to play along...

The Value of Silence
Posted: 6/1/2009 5:29:23 AM
Constant talking just shows nervousness, I feel. That's why I keep my phone calls short in most cases. When you are on the phone, silence can be uncomfortable...

Why are some people against hunting?
Posted: 3/5/2009 7:17:45 PM
I am not a vegan or vegetarian, but I am definitely of the mindset that if I had to kill it myself, I would do without. A man that thinks it's fun and exciting to kill animals is no real man in my eyes. I suppose there are women hunters too, but it DOES seem to be more of a male thing. YUCK.

Is red hot romance possible after 50?
Posted: 1/28/2009 10:10:28 AM

Abstience Rocks!
Posted: 1/28/2009 10:08:40 AM
That's how it will have to be for now until I am in a monogomous relationship. And I am fine with it. This doesn't mean I have to wait for months or years after I find a spark with someone, but it does mean that I don't feel the need to be with a lot of people because of a fear of being alone. I do not fear being by myself, and I have lots of family and female friends. However, I hope not to be without the physical side of love for the rest of my life, but that's unlikely, too, and I could live with it either way.

None of the above! I'm not perfect-as no one is, but I feel I have something to offer the right person. If anyone on POF is feeling this way, try to move beyond that and realize that there is someone for everyone out there. It's up to us to find them.

A question about dogs and the cold weather...
Posted: 1/1/2009 8:39:35 AM
I grew up with outside dogs, but now my pug stays inside with "potty breaks" throughout the day and night. We also have a mixed Sharpei-Whippet-plus who knows what other breed, that needs more outside time, but if it's really cold, he stays in with the newspapers for accidents, and the bathroom door open with it's tile floors that are easy to mop when necessary.

Old TV Shows
Posted: 12/29/2008 9:02:11 PM
Some of my old favorites include "Newhart", "The Golden Girls", "Leave it to Beaver", "The Bob Newhart Show", and "The Andy Griffith Show". Some of these were mentioned already but thought I'd throw my two cents in.

Do people really have time to date??
Posted: 12/29/2008 8:56:25 PM
Of course we have time to date if it's important to us. Jobs, kids, hobbies, alone time-all are important, but life can be better if we find that special someone. So having time to date should maybe be rephrased as-let's take time to date those we feel we could possibly have a good friendship or relationship with. There's no sense in being anxious over it though, or dating just to keep from being lonely. But making time to date is a different thing.

How do you start talking to a girl across the room in a bar and not sound dum
Posted: 12/11/2008 6:47:36 PM
Most women love a sincere compliment. Tell you like her hair or her eyes or the color of her blouse... Or just say you'd like to talk to her. She'll understand that you just felt attracted to her for some reason or another, and most likely she will appreciate that.

Philosophy of gambling
Posted: 12/11/2008 6:28:32 PM
If I win, I go home. If I lose more than twenty dollars, I go home. I enjoy gambling in SMALL amounts. The most I won was 230.00 on a three dollar slot deposit. I won 250.00 at Bingo one time, too. Usually it's just five or ten dollars won or lost. It's simply a night out with friends.

Movies to never rent....
Posted: 11/30/2008 6:04:00 PM
Of course it depends on your taste, but the movies I have really hated lately were "The Hours"-so depressing, "The Wedding Date"-just boring and trashy, too, and "8 Crazy Nights", although I usually laugh at a lot of Sandler's stuff, that one was BAD in my opinion. Also, I could not get into "Bad Santa", but so many people swear it's hilarious that I might try it again since it's the season...

Where did you go on your last vacation?
Posted: 11/30/2008 5:56:49 PM
Went to Colorado in August. Took the teen age kids, and my pug, Otis. We mainly stayed around the Denver-Golden area because I had lived there in the early eighties and wanted the kids to see it. Also, their grandpa, my dad, had been raised there. We had a wonderful time, and I would definitely recommend it for those that enjoy the mountains as well as the arts and city life, too.

Talking about pets on a first date
Posted: 11/26/2008 10:32:57 PM
Heck, no there's nothing wrong with sharing pet stories on a first date. I make it pretty much a requirement that a person I date should either have a pet, or at least think it's pretty kewl that I have two dogs. And if they don't like my dogs, sorry, it's a package deal...

reflections about today's historic moment
Posted: 11/22/2008 8:41:19 AM
Like Serenity, I was surprised so many posts were deleted, because even though abortion was not supposed to be the topic-the election results were, abortion often comes up in any kind of political forum since it is one of the human rights issues. Beats me why the comments were removed unless someone complained, and the OP just said she was fine with hearing everyone's opinions. Relating to what Serenity just said about her friend's family weeping over McCain's speech, I must mention my 17 year old daughter who was crying on the night of the election because she was afraid having Obama in office would weaken the military, and make the U.S. more vulnerable to attacks, and my daughter is also against abortion so she was saddened that Obama would probably now strengthen and expand the current abortion laws and funding- but however, after talking it over with my mom-a McCain supporter, and I, also a luke warm McCain supporter-heck, I'm an independent and neither of the major parties totally represent my beliefs-I'm a conservative democrat or liberal republican-lol-my family has all tried to be supportive toward a new prez and his administration. My 19 year old son, a first time voter, supported Obama, while me, his mom, just shook my head and decided it was not my place to criticize. He DID sweetly hug me and his sister, after the election, and say, sorry your president didn't win. Awww....

100 Greatest Rock Singers by Rolling Stone
Posted: 11/20/2008 6:11:06 PM
Out of the top 5, the only one I regularly listen to is John Lennon. I do like Aretha's "Respect", but not her other music that much. Elvis did some good stuff, but I liked his later songs like "In the Ghetto" and "Suspicious Minds" better than the early hits. Ray Charles and Sam Cooke aren't bad-but in the top 5? That's surprising. Would love to be able to see the whole list, but I'm having trouble pulling it up. Maybe I'll come back and add more to the discussion later. I saw someone mentioned Roger Daltry, and Kurt Cobain on their picks, and I have to agree they are both faves of mine, too.

I relate. Why go out unless you feel you are really compatible with someone? I'm very busy with my family, job, friends, church, pets, hobbies. However, if I meet someone I really click with, believe me, I will find the time, but until then...

To the woman that said she thought she was having a nightmare-Believe me, I hear you. However, let's try to use that favorite word that's going around now-"Hope"- and who knows maybe Obama may turn out to do pretty well-we can only "hope" and pray. You never know. And by the way, it has nothing to do with his skin color. I admired MLK very much, and I respect Alan Keyes, although I realize he's way too religious for a lot of folks. Colin Powell? Yeah, he seems all right , too. So it's not just a racist thing you know- A hispanic woman vs. a black man, since I am Latin American.

movie soundtracks
Posted: 11/11/2008 6:04:00 AM
One soundtrack I liked in the past year is the soundtrack of "Juno". A mix of old-Motley Crew, and new-Moldy Peaches- it was different, and I really enjoyed it.

Limiting who can contact you
Posted: 11/7/2008 6:15:17 PM
I've decided to become choosier. I know what I want, and although I don't mind new friends, I don't want to hear from people within totally different age groups, or people that are just looking for something totally different than what I am-married folks, drug users, smokers, non-religious people, people just looking for intimate encounters. I am going to become choosy as he** for awhile, and then maybe I'll meet the right person for me.

In answer to the man who said to give Obama a chance no matter how you voted-I am trying to do the same as an independent who voted for Bush in 2000, Kerry in 2004, and McCain this time around. But there were so many bitter people that just hated Bush and never gave him a chance, and I am determined not to be like those people were. So for the woman who said "Where have you been for the last eight years?"-well the answer sweetie is- right here with a much better attitude than you seem to have. What if Obama had lost? Would you be blowing kisses? No, you'd probably just be an old sore loser like that other ignorant guy who called himself "the artist" in a previous post.

Good books
Posted: 11/7/2008 5:41:20 AM
I sure think John Steinbeck got a bad rap over "Grapes of Wrath". It was meant to be sympathetic to Oklahomans and other poor people during the depression, but to this day some people, especially the elderly, seem to resent him. Would love to read 2 new biographies that have recently been published about him, but I do not have the titles, yet.

Sore losers? So you're if your candidate lost you'd be thrilled about it? I'm trying to be a good sport as I mentioned on an earlier post, but I'll be damned if I have to be thrilled that the person I did NOT vote for won. As far as saying anyone off the street would be better than Bush, that's just disrespectful, and even though I didn't support Obama's election, I will get behind him now, which sounds like more than what you did, you sore loser from the last election!

Sex, Politics, Religion and Dating....
Posted: 11/5/2008 7:35:05 AM
I am very interested to know his views on politics and religion. If he's too extreme at either end of the spectrum, I doubt I would be interested in dating him. I myself am in the middle leaning toward the right. And I only date Christians, particulary Catholics. Dating a non-believer might be fine for some folks, but it's not for me. Sex?-that can wait. If it comes up too soon, he's not for me, either.

Okay, I did NOT vote for Obama, and even though I'm trying to be a good sport about him winning, let's stop all this dramatic crap, and all these tears. It's getting a little hard to stomach. 48% of Americans didn't vote for this candidate, and some of you starry eyed naive people need to realize that there is still a long road ahead.

What is being successful with one's life?
Posted: 11/1/2008 9:58:13 AM
I think personal satisfaction is the number one thing that counts as success. Not money, looks, love, or anything else. Some people say if that if they don't have the money, looks, romance, how can they be happy? I disagree. The greatest happiness for the truly content person is just finding simple things in life to enjoy. Friends, family, pets, nature, the arts. It really works for me, and although I would like to find someone special to share life with, I do NOT consider myself a failure by any means if that doesn't happen. It will eventually, most likely. If not? Reread above.

Memories...of Life... Please share your write about memories
Posted: 10/25/2008 9:20:50 AM
Most my memories seem to involve holidays, vacations, and of course romances. I guess that's why people place so much emphasis on those very things, because many of us remember them for a long time. However, I seem to have this quirky habit of remembering more details than most people. Don't know if that's a blessing or a curse. Lol.

Re: Your Favorite Music Lyrics
Posted: 10/25/2008 9:15:54 AM
A couple that come to mind are "Tangled up in Blues" by Bob Dylan, and "Annie's Song" by John Denver are two songs that come to mind that have wonderfully, creative lyrics. I won't write them all out here, but if you haven't heard them, and ever get the chance to-don't pass it up. An example from "Tangled"-"poets from the fifteenth century as if they were talking just to me", and from "Annie's Song"- "You build up my senses like a night in the forest..."
