WoE
I shall throw my lot in with The Coxeman’s Dogma and take my chances I think.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained

>>Bet you look handsome with your feathers ruffled though …… WoE

You may inspect my plumage tomorrow, all being well

Rod, we can see your feathers have been ruffled but take care not to put all your eggs in Mr Damon’s basket. It could result in a rotten roue omelette, or a Street Car Named Disaster etc.

Bet you look handsome with your feathers ruffled though …… WoE

p.s. good luck in the Iron Gait - John Wayne Challenge, you should walk it!!

Ursula,
I am not sure how much faith I put in these issues that women regard as most important
Good sense of humour, looks and money unimportant etc

As to Mr Damon, his success with women is the stuff of legend

a large wallet might attract the younger girls but it will be short lived

That’ll do for the new improved Rod

Yes, skilful wooing is an art and art requires sensitivity

I’ve tried that, waste of time - got me nowhere just as The Coxeman said it would - the new Rod Collins will pay much more attention to Rod Damon in the future!

Desensitized, cold men (ie robots) don’t score any points. Women like hot smouldering men with big hearts …. a large wallet might attract the younger girls but it will be short lived if skilful wooing is found lacking. Yes, skilful wooing is an art and art requires sensitivity. Which brings me to Mr Damon whose romantic intentions are represented by widdling “how about it” in the snow. Please tell me, women don’t still fall for this do they? Urs

Ursula,
man points are indeed awarded by men. Of course it is to impress other men - the caveman attitude still runs through the veins of real men.

I may be a more complex specimen Ursula but this is no good, indeed it has lead to the loss of some hard earnt man points - I need to toughen up!
To that effect I shall try your training course as part of my build up to competing in the Iron Man Challenge.

No more Mr Nice Guy ! He will always come second and second is first of the losers.

Regards
Rod - desensitized from now on

Grasping the finer aspects dear boy, is something women excel at. Seems to me that men are awarding themselves points to impress other men. They may get a good deal further by finding out how women award points. Modelling themselves on Oliver Reed for instance, gives a limited number of points … womanising, hard drinking and fighting imaginary beasts .. any finer aspects missing? However, Russell Crowe scored highly for all of ten minutes as I recall ….you may have heard the cry ‘man over board’, ably assisted by the toe of my latest gem encrusted Choo in his case.

I suspect you, Mr Collins, are an altogether more complex specimen which may require further study. With this in mind I have set an army assault course in Grimsby, resembling an Indiana Jones endeavour. I shall watch via satellite. Jonny Wilkinson did rather well, as did Little Brother who managed to rustle up a salad nicoise en route, gaining extra points. Do your best. Urs

WoE,
discussing man points in detail with women is pointless, they are unlikely to grasp the finer aspects.

There is a brief rundown in the Glossary of Terms though
http://www.rodcollins.com/wordpress/glossary-of-terms/

Points are awarded, generally in the single figure range, so anything gained or lost in double figures is a big deal.

Without giving away the secrets I feel I can say that Rod Damon aka The Coxeman has more man points than anyone I know personally.
To take someone famous Russell Crowe does rather well as did the late great Oliver Reed.
Regards
Rod

Rod, on average how many man points should a man have? Some of us are unsure how these are won or lost, perhaps you could clarify and then the girls can see if they agree or not. WoE

Little Brother
the loss of man points may lead to this, today I shall seek to claw some back.
If I see an allligator in the river as I walk shortly I shall dive in, knife between teeth, and make like Johnny Weissmuller!

Until Later
Rod
