Cracking up at the gigawatt potential of a motorbike versus the dress blues!<br /><br />Bikes over here have varied meanings and effects. There's the cool gigawatt factor of say Richard Gere in Officer and a Gentleman or Tom Cruise in Top Gun (though the jets send the sexy value into hyper-gigwatt territory!).<br /><br />Then there's trials bikes with the huge shocks = jerks *g*. Probably can't afford a car, certainly can't afford a proper bike. Uggh.<br /><br />And mopeds with parkas - Mods (no, I'm not that old, but I was around when they filmed Quadrophenia).Anna Sugdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02015356374453032571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-80460289739816453062009-05-09T00:14:00.000-04:002009-05-09T00:14:00.000-04:00Aw, Joan, thanks!

I haven't read any of your books yet but planning on getting them.<br /><br />As to the questions we all kind of like the bad boys but when we choose a man for me it would have to be the boy next door.

And, I think...Uniform chasers used to crack me up. And, I think that plays on some of the stuff being discussed here. <br /><br />Ironically, I cannot ever once remember dating or even giving a second thought to any girl I met while in uniform, though there were plenty.<br /><br />USMC dress blues were like a 400 megawatt chick-magnet. I guess maybe I knew it was the uniform they were after and dismissed them for it. In retrospect, that seems kind of odd, because back then, I'd use about any advantage I could find to land a hottie. Weird.<br /><br />So there's your "protector" stereotype. Yeah, the uniform attracted them.<br /><br />But not like a motorcycle. <br /><br />Oh man did a bike get the girls' attention back in the day. It probably still does, but I'm not sure I'd notice. "Dangerous." You wimmins and your "dangerous" guys. If the Dress Blues were a 400 megawatt chick magnet, the bike was measured in gigawatts. <br /><br />Then there was the whole "the hotter they were, the worse they wanted to be treated" thing. Those poor girls... once I learned that rule of thumb... wow. Life got *good.* (in a bad way) <br /><br />What women find attractive, I'm not sure I'll ever understand.<br /><br />Truly deadly guys don't advertise. So, most of the time, if you're falling for a ninja, he's a fraud. But on the bright side, in a book, he's the real deal, right?p226https://www.blogger.com/profile/05502193525250005347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-17855141406921733192009-05-08T16:09:00.000-04:002009-05-08T16:09:00.000-04:00Glad you liked ST, Trish.
