The Rules for Women Glad you liked my plug for northern women, Annette. Once upon a time a client of mine wanted to fix me up. She asked me what she should ask her friend to see if it was worth pursuing. I told her: " Ask her if she likes U2." My friend said, "What? Come on!" I said, "Seriously, ask her if she likes U2." "OK! What else should I ask her?" I responded, "Ask her if she likes rollercoasters." "Oh my God," my friend retorted. This led to "The Rules" Do you like-- 1) U2 2) Rollercoasters 3) Hockey (the greatest live sport, hands down) 4) Motorcycles 5) Cooking (I like to cook with women!) 6) Men (Face it! Most women don't really "like" men) Well after going out with a woman who was 6 for 6 and having it collapse like a ton of bricks, I realized the problem. That disaster helped me form the negative wing of "The Rules," all of which she broke. Hence, the other six in the official "Sophie Rules." You don't-- 1) Own 2 or more cats (no room for a man in that house) 2) Do astrology 3) Color your hair noticeably (have you ever seen bright blonde with dark roots or unnatural red? Sad!) 4) Disguise your age 5) Get regular manicures 6) Work out compulsively I'll never forget when Sophie did my "chart" to determine if we were "made for each other." So how many of those 12 do you nail, Annette? I know at least one. FRONT CAR, "Midwest Porch Babe." John
