Ask Boomer Al
Issue #33, February 17, 2003

Dear Boomer Al
I’m a twenty-two year old female with a huge crush on a nice and cute guy at work. He’s a few years older than me. I’ve dropped hints to him about getting together and dating but he still hasn’t asked me out. I know he likes me. Do you think it’s OK for me to ask him out?
Help Needed

Dear Help Needed
Asking a guy out is perfectly fine if you think you can handle the rejection. I remember many years ago a nice girl had an awful crush on me. Unfortunately, at the time I had a crush on someone else. She felt humiliated and hurt when I didn’t respond positively. I remember feeling so badly about it.

I would have some concerns if the age difference were significant. Yet I know many people do make it work regardless. Let me give you something to think about. Men are naturally competitive, even the quiet ones. Men also tend to really want what they can’t have, so you may want to be a little harder to get if you know what I mean. If he were to ask you if something was wrong you have your answer.

Dear Al
I’m on a bowling team with some great guys and we have a lot of fun. The problem is one guy on the team smells so bad and has bad breathe. Is there a nice way of telling him? He’s a nice guy and we don’t want to hurt his feelings.
Thanks
Carl

Dear Carl
Perhaps the odiferous one uses bovine based products for daily hygiene. It’s hard to imagine with the icy temps you guys live with that dampness would be much of an issue.

Some people do come from families who find value in life aux naturelle to be preferable over the invasiveness of skin and oral solvents. Such individuals unfortunately diminished the pleasures of social interaction for those of us addicted to the destruction of all forms of personal bacterium.

Maybe at the next sleep over you might have a heart to heart with the aromatic one? A caring friend would surely attempt. Until then see if the bowlerdrome allows incense.

We dealt with it differently in the Navy, but that’s a different story for another time. Al

_.·´¯)What's up with this?(¯`·._

I have been very listless and tired the last few weeks. I know it hasn't made me the bell of the ball lately. Perhaps it's the seven day a week schedule I've been keeping trying to find the right home for the right person. There are other issues also if I'm honest ... and I'm always honest.

Ever notice how most of us are stuck between what we must do versus what we want to do? If we could do what we wanted to we definitely would have all too many golfers and fishermen in the world don't you think? If you could earn a living doing what you love to do how great would that be? Some do you know.

War with Iraq seems about to happen. I feel that the terrorist threat from this point on will be a constant. I for one prefer to move the fight into their neighborhood. I know it's an unpopular position with some ... but I think we have no choice. 9/11 changed the playing field forever I fear ... and Osama will rue the day he woke us up from our slumber. Reagan would have been less patient than "W" I suspect. Ask Kadafi. Where has he been since? hmmmm ...

Did you notice where Rev Jackson was leading the anti-war protest over in merry old England. The press has pretty much ignored him here the last two years ... deservedly I might add.

Just my opinion. Don't like it? So tell me off at ...

Success in life comes to those who are good at solving problems, not becoming one. It's the essence of all things marketing. So what can I do with this mortgaged RV? :)

Have fun. It's later than you think.
