I am certain she will find your charity and you irresistible. Failing that... I'm sure your cellmate "Bubba" at the NY jailhouse will.  | Since our sponsor is a cougar rather than a cougar stalker, I think she is only partially correct here. The main idea of a charity is good. But don't forget the main cougar bait: Chardonnay. You can lure these women of 'a certain vintage' out of their dens with wee drops of this illustrious liqueur, and, of course, requisite look of complete rapture as they regale you with fablieaux of evil ex lovers.
Then wait. Yes, wait until she spills that first sparkling drop of white wine, and then you strike.
"Ooh yes", you might say, "I am founding an organization to save the endangered Chardonnay vineyards of Marysville, where there is a terrible plague of infestuous infestations .... " Try not to drool during this part, like me and my mate JJ. When it mixes with the Chardonnay it makes a poisonous cocktail.
Well good luck. This doesn't work very well for me either, but I try sometimes just to see if I can get one to purr. A sharp snap of the teeth might be good too. I've never tried to pet one, though, because they look awfully mean in the morning, especially around the eyes.
Happy hunting.

| There's always the Leon Auriole open...
Huge open tournament in Seattle in September. Something like 80-90 fencers went to last years. Actually, that's just epee.

"Leon Maitre dinner series - April 2008-04-14 13:56:21
Leon Auriol has agreed to do another installment of his acclaimed dinner series. Many of you are familiar with his 4 course French cuisine dinners and their popularity. The dinner includes wine and, at a total price of $35, it’s also one of the best dining out deals in town!"
Which sounds absolutely intriguing. Maybe we should go just for the dinner. Sam you available?

At 8 FencerGrl, do you need a booster seat, or are you already up to the table? JJ doesn't drink. He says he does, but then he always gets a coke.
That leaves me alone with the Chardonnay or if you buy me a beer I'll play the piano. Then you can buy me 2 beers not to sing. You have to close the lid to make me stop playing the piano though. I am kind of a slow stopper.

Three is wayyy more fun, especially for me  (as I presume the other two posters are male). However, my whimpering was because it looked like they were running off together leaving me without dinner company.

EW | Dear Battle Worn,
Cougars like to bite and scratch. It's their nature.
If you are particularly tasty, you are likely get pounced. A sure sign is a cougar's bottom/ tail will twitch prior to pouncing. Watch for this, otherwise it can catch you unaware and suddenly you've taken an unexpected tumble.
Even if you are adapt at noticing the tell-tale signs, you are likely to be left breathless, smelling faintly of expensive perfume and Chardonnay and sporting bruises and scratches you don't remember getting. Make sure you drink plenty of water after a cougar encounter, as they tend to drain you of fluids.

| Dear FG,
Is me or it seems that people on the main forum don't have... (what's a good word...) humor, much? Or is my delivery too subtle?
