Umm how about you just WATCH someone on Cam4 or Stickam and you don't actually communicate with the person..... ha ha. A lot of good answers actually so far that could really go in lots of directions if you draw the thought process out. When you don't have physical relations with someone, but an emotional connection, where does that fall?

No.... I am tirred of damn Hayes and Cramptons..... no one in these stories is blood related to Brad. That is why I want a Charmichael kid! And I want JJ in this three-way!

He did go to Madison, but his flippant response of "I ran out of guys to f***"" or "I got bored" leads to be more firmly convinced of his lack of intellectual curiosity and why he isn't a suitable match for Kevin. Cody has never shown interest in going back to school or getting his degree or even advancing in his position. I think that leads to trouble being partnered with someone who is ambitious.

Do you mean like Data?? He is kinda cute

I would never pretend that going to college makes you intellectually curious or not going to college means you aren't, but I'd have to say that those are the norms. Louis L'Amour's autobiography, Education of a Wandering Man, talks about how many people he met self educated by reading the classics, but I would say that is rarer now than it used to be. I can't imagine too many people who didn't go to college reading Plato, Pliny, Cicero, Plutarch, et al or studying Maslow and Milgram for the fun of it. Again, I am sure there are exceptions, but I don't think them the rule. Cody isn't a college graduate, didn't go at all that I remember and has never shown any interest in intellectual pursuits and hasn't done much to show huge ambition in advancing. Everyone postulates and projects. I've known Kevins and Codys and I've never seen it work when the two get together.

There is a huge distance between being stupid and not being intellectually developed or intellectually curious. Cody can be smart in a lot of ways and great at what he does, but people who go to elite universities (and as much as it pains Tim, Stanford is an elite university) operate on a whole different plain, have different interests intellectually and those people share common experiences. I have seen big problems in my straight friends marriages where one person went to college and the other didn't and I mean problems that relate directly to the knowledge gulf or gap. Those that both went to college, still have problems, that just isn't one of them. I am pretty sure Stanford does not offer any majors in how to be a Hollywood agent, which is what Cody does. While most agents these days have four year degrees and many have law degrees, MBA's or both, it wasn't like that a while ago. Cody might be smart, probably is smart, but he would still lack a lot of that experience and knowledge that is common to college students in the books they read, the psych and philosophy classes they take, the sciences they study and so on. It doesn't mean that Cody is stupid, but when all the other guys are talking about such topics, it is bound to be awkward. If Kevin is at Stanford he IS high and mighty intellectual. Not only are there no dummies at Stanford, even among the athletes, there are no mediocre intellects. Stanford gets the top 2%-3% of students in the country and students that are admitted lower than that, say in the top 7% would be the athletes or a disadvantaged student, but would still have a high GPA and test scores.

I see Lark more like this.

I hope Mr. Arbour leaves Robbie & Brad alone...... they've head enough damn drama

So you now see why you can't do (a) ( © lists in that manner you have to a. b. and c.

I cried my eyes out many many times over reading this story. I know Adam relates to it incredibly which is where the connection with Dan started in the first place. Is this a new post script or are you just reminding people it is there?

Honestly, I find it a little creepy and it all looks alike like Thomas Kincaid crap.

I don't know any polo players that aren't surf rats too, most also are on the swim team. Water polo is kind of the elitist sport in CA, maybe like Lacrosse is in eastern prep schools. It is a very small community, everyone knows everyone and it is very generational. People who played at USC 60 years ago are still involved and are seeing their great grand kids in the sport. Since polo is biggest at the elite universities in CA, Cal, Stanford, USC, Pepperdine, UCLA, UCI, UCSD, Harvey Mudd, Pomona-Pitzer, etc high school polo players know they need good grades to get to the next level. Most of the top water polo high schools in southern California like Corona del Mar, Harvard Westlake, Loyola, Newport Harbor, Long Beach Wilson, Laguna Beach, Malibu, Coronado, the Bishop's School, La Jolla High, Carlsbad and so on are from wealthy areas. The hard work and discipline it takes to be great at this sport blows the image of the idol rich out of the water. The guys are tough, dedicated and disciplined. You have to be when your first practice of the day starts at 5:45AM. It would be cool to have Will as the narrator of the next CAP story (or one of them) and have Will playing polo.

It's My Party

TLA is based in Philthydelphia. I saw the movie in Palm Springs Film Festival and it was cute, a bit cheesy and not terribly original. There are a lot of other similar movies out there. If you can stream it for $3.99, it is probably worth the effort.

I live in California, but I was born and raised in Wyoming. On my father's side they were pure German although our name got Anglicized a few years after we got here in 1709. My early ancestors were from the Palatinate in Germany, but once they got here they intermarried with English, Scottish a few more Germans. My mother's side is mostly English, with a few Danes and Swedes slipped in.

Hello Stupid is kind of a DD sequel and that would have been my second choice after "is Dom okay" and With Trust third.

I like choirs And here is an Austrian one for you

Here he is on Ellen. http://ellen.warnerbros.com/videos/?autoplay=true&mediaKey=c7d9cc8f-da9b-48c8-a791-0b3e53aab37a

Oh hush! Your wet dream is a Rory & Taylor hook-up!

"Mark Arbour Needs Help!" Well that is a topic starter that could go in a lot of different directions right out the gate, but the help he needs in this instance is a bunch of new words or phrases to replace "tent" and "tenting" as in 'his khaki slacks were tenting as he looked hungrily at me". I mean c'mon, tent and tenting have to be the most commonly used words in the CAP series other than "the" "and" and "is". So everyone pitch in! Come up with words and phrases to replace tenting!

I really liked this one.

I bet he drives a Mississippi Miata!

I am kind of in the both camp, but lean to lyrics. The lyrics are always there and some singers might do it better than others, but the lyrics are always there. That is why I hate songs in English where I can't understand a bunch of the words because they are slurred together or butchered. I couldn't think of an example, but I am sure you all know what I mean so I googled it. Here is what I got
