If you can drive from NC to Seattle and back for $240, I'm impressed.

I'm truly happy with my wife, and, without any conflict with that happy fact, I certainly don't mind an occasional reminder that this picture exists. I do not need to meet this young lady in person to appreciate the picture, and the picture remains undiminished for me even if she is in her 50's and fat like I am. But I do wish her well, however old she is.

I've spent a lot of quality time examining... studying... that photograph. Here are MY findings:
The girl closest to the camera is amazing... But, the problem is, SHE knows it. You can tell by the way she's locked on to the camera. Nice eye candy, but I know from experience that girls like her are going to be high maintenance. I'll pass.
The second girl can't decide what she wants. Does she want the beer, or to pose? I don't need indecisive people in my life. I'll pass on her too.
Now, the girl furthest from the camera, she's interesting to me. Give her a big stein of beer, she gets right to it. Is she the most beautiful girl there? Unknown, as the beer blocks our view of her. I find that bit of mystery alluring. Most of all, I like that she knows how to prioritize. I'll take my chances with her.

Fat? Heck yeah. One eyed? Hardly. Must be some glare on my goggles. If you're not familiar with me and would like to see me in action, watch the following video (will take less than 20 seconds of your day, and will be worth that time):

But back to the topic... No, wait, the sub-topic... My question to you, Mr. Denney, is do you agree or disagree with my analysis of the picture in question?

The correct response would have been "Then fill your hands, you son of a beach..." It was delivered much better by John Wayne than by Jeff Bridges, but I'm partial.
Aloofness on the part of a girl whose picture I admire has never been a practical constraint on my admiration of it. It has about as much relevance to me as knowing that she loves puppies, walks on the beach, and world peace. (Or beer.)
Stated another way: Even if I bought her a valentine card today, I rather doubt she'd accept it.

I edited out the statement you quoted the same minute you replied to it... Turns out I came to the realization that I wasn't really awaiting your response at all... But, thanks for posting anyway, much appreciated.
I respect your view that the picture itself is it's own work of art. Please continue to enjoy it in whatever ways you do.
Just as you were "possibly" joking, I possibly didn't intend to get into a discussion of human nature until you threw down the gauntlet, and then called me fat! I'm a big believer in the concept of "beauty is only skin deep"... For me, the true beauty of an individual is in how they treat others and feel about themselves. I'll take self-confidence and sparkling personality over a cute face and a nice rack any day. Not that I don't appreciate these things, but I don't prioritize them. I also have enough self-esteem that I wouldn't hesitate to give a Valentine to someone I liked or was trying to get to know, without assuming rejection. So, we might possibly be different.
It turns out that this is all moot, as my view of things is completely bogus... Evolutionary psychologist Satoshi Kanazawa writes:
They say beauty is only skin deep, which means that beautiful people are no different from ugly people except for their appearance. This is the second stereotype or aphorism that evolutionary psychology has overturned. It turns out that beautiful people are genuinely different from ugly people, because they are genetically and developmentally healthier.

Wait, True Grit is a remake? Ugh... I swear, like 50% of the movies that come out now are remakes of old movies. So annoying... Hollywood might as well come out and say "sorry, we're pretty much out of ideas."

CK,
I know he was joking. I was just bantering back, but I think my sense of humor doesn't come through very well. Gotta start adding smilies, I guess.
Or, better yet, quit posting.

Although I would (having recently watched both versions) disagree with him on which version I prefer. John Wayne was very good (though I preferred "The Dude")... but Glenn Campbell... ugh.
Now, did I say anything positive at all about Glenn Campbell? At least they did the right thing and killed him off in the old version. And did I disparage the work of the Coen brothers in any way? I just said I preferred John Wayne to Jeff Bridges in this role. And I thought most of the actors had trouble delivering the 19th-century language with a natural sound and flow.
