It just reminds me of all the times in Elementary School would I would be teased by the other kids for "playing with the girls". Apparently this was something unbecoming that I was hopelessly unaware of, and eventually settled playing on the non controversial swing set instead.
I was a quiet, thoughtful little kid, so I rather liked the company of girls. They seemed more mature and content to let me be myself. The macho posturing of a lot of the boys pissed me off.
I recall I was at a party once during college and had several young ladies come up and confide in me a number of surprisingly personal issues. I asked Lydia why I was deemed worthy of such attention. She said "You're very approachable and non threatening". Makes sense to me.
Well that doesn't mean the two of you were going to hold hands in the rain. I was the same kind of guy. They will remember me forever but which one is sitting beside me and telling me I am brilliant. NONE, that's how many.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

Wow. Thats a classic "Girl Who Lives Down the Street" look. Simple and Sincere.
She was always due for more.

If you knew now what you didn't know then.

It's was always more fun to make the girls laugh than the boys. Boys are easy. Girls are wonderfully difficult to impress.
