Yeah...I've often wondered why I tend to end up with girls like that. That's part of the grand introspection. It's not that I hang with the wrong crowd. Fact is I only have a handful of people I'd actually consider real friends and they're the only people I hang out with and they're all great people. And on the contrary, I CAN believe that about every woman. I've just got a general distrust for women but I try and put that on hold until I get to know a girl. I guess it's hard for an outsider to see why I feel the way I feel about these things but I assure you these are not unfounded descriptions or feelings. It's just the way I see things per the experiences I've had in my admittedly short life (22 years isn't too long I suppose).

I appreciate the support Mylittlecivic, but if there's a girl out there "dying" to meet me, chances are she's no good for me. But hey...if you're so sure of that, go find her and bring her to me cuz I'm sick of looking for her.

Sic transit gloria folks.

Not so up on my latin. Translation?

How about sic semper tyrannis?

Sic transit gloria = glory fades

Sic semper tyrannes = death to tyrants (if memory serves me).

Thanks man.

Official translation of sic semper tyrannis is, thus always to tyrants. Know that one, was just throwing some more latin for everyone's enjoyment.

Yeah...that quote always gets misinterpreted...if memory serves that's what John Wilkes Boothe yelled before shooting Lincoln, right? Problem with Latin is that one work can be taken 10 different ways. But that's all way OT. Hehe.
