    Dear Michele, I can be your soul mate, but only it terms of stalking. It's not nearly as much fun when you know that you're my soul mate. There's no intensity when I follow you from home to work and back, but while w'e're on the subject, can you please use semi-deserted roads to give me a chance to get closer to you? It's been fun following you around the city, but taxis and buses tend to get between us and I steart to think you're trying to evade me on purpose. That makes me a bit angry, and believe me, you won't like me when I'm angry. Recently, I started watching you as you move around inside your house. In my humble opinion, I think the couch would look better on the other side of the room, and oh yes, the comforter on your bed is very soft. When we finally meet, you simply have to tell me what you do to make it smell so good. Oh, but silly me - I already know what you do. During my last visit, I took it on myself to rearrange your underwear drawer (and your panties almost fit me - I KNOW! I'M LAUGHING TOO!), and you were almost out of bubblebath soap - AGAIN - so I got you some more. Don't worry though, I fought off the urge to lick your toothbrush this time. I don't know if you remember, but I took some pictures of you sleeping, and I recently put them on my Facebook page. In closing, I want to let you know that the guy that came over and slept with you last night won't be bothering you any more (wink, wink, nudge, nudge).

          Stalkers are a pretty weird bunch. It was difficult to think of myself as one, and I was only imagining what one would say if they could write a letter to their soul mate. As we all know: 0) There are no such things as soul mates. There are mates - the male variety are "friends", the female variety are "conquests". 1) The only good place for a couch is against a wall facing the TV. If there's a table in front of it, it's so that you can either spreat the parts of the weapon you're cleaning out in an orderly fashion while you're watching a NASCAR race. 2) Men's beds have blankets, but only in the dead of winter. Otherwise, the only thing on a man's bed is a sheet, a woman, and a pillow for her to scream into as she is ravaged. 3) The only thing men rearrange is their toolbox, or the internal organs of a hapless intruder. 4) The panties thing was for comedy.

            Not really, but if you think they add that touch of finesse you're looking for, by all means, leave them in.

            I left them in, and I hope it will be read. Unfortunately I will have no way of knowing, since they will be unable to reply.. or more accurately, if they did reply, no one would receive it.

              Nah. All that is just a feeble attempt in regaining some of the man points you've irrevocably lost by writing your earlier stalking note. It is in vain, and you know it. BTW: how is Lady Stumpy? is she to blame for any of this? :omg:

                            They are everywhere, stinking up Malls in every state they can manage to get into. I can't even get within a few dozen feet of the place. I'm probably allergic to one of their toxins and just about pass out. My manliness retches at the very notion and I walk away with a disgusted look on my face. (edited to give a proper explanation)

                            If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

                              Stalkers are a pretty weird bunch. It was difficult to think of myself as one, and I was only imagining what one would say if they could write a letter to their soul mate. As we all know: 0) There are no such things as soul mates. There are mates - the male variety are "friends", the female variety are "conquests". 1) The only good place for a couch is against a wall facing the TV. If there's a table in front of it, it's so that you can either spreat the parts of the weapon you're cleaning out in an orderly fashion while you're watching a NASCAR race. 2) Men's beds have blankets, but only in the dead of winter. Otherwise, the only thing on a man's bed is a sheet, a woman, and a pillow for her to scream into as she is ravaged. 3) The only thing men rearrange is their toolbox, or the internal organs of a hapless intruder. 4) The panties thing was for comedy.

                                That's my point. But it did happen. I have an e-mail address specific to CP, as I do with a lot of websites that require registration.

                                Dude! Is this your first go round the internet? :) You can create a new email address, not give it to anyone or *ever* use it and I guarantee you will get a spam in it if it's not a gmail account where they filter quite well. Spammers simply send billions of emails to every possible address. You should see a mail server's log sometime, mine is filled with attempts to send to addresses that don't exist made up of dictionary words.

                                  The e-mail address I'm using for code project is now getting spam from OpenMakeSoftware. Anyone else seeing this? I'm not particularly happy about this, considering I opted out of the e-mail newsletters etc. from CP.

                                  Then you're missing something good.
