2. People who watch what happens.
3. People who wondered what happened.Hi Bris,
I think I mentioned this experience before on this site (?) It was when I was in NY in 1996. I actually ended up going out with this girl. When I first met her she was gorgeous but looked really down. I just started talking to her at a party and said what a beautiful day it was and she (Nancy) said “Yeah, I guess”. I said, “What do you mean you guess?” She said that things hadn’t been working out too well for her lately. I said “what do you mean?” She said “I can’t tell you, I hardly know you!” So I just said sometimes it can help to talk about things to someone you don’t know? She said “well I’ve just come back from my analyst this morning and he’s still unable to help me”. I said what’s the problem?” She said kind of sheepishly,..”Well I’m a nymphomaniac, but I can only get turned on by Jewish cowboys. By the way my name’s Nancy.” I said, “hello Nancy, my name’s ‘Bucky Goldstein’!”
