Russell's School of Seduction

For all the single guys out there, my boy would like to demonstrate how he executes some the basic rules of engagement. His old man wasn't nearly as good at this, but its all the rule of nature that a child will someday exceed the skills of the parent.



Step#1 - Be Excellent
Excellent or at least memorable. Check how Russell is rockin' the mismatched sock deal. That little girl can easily recall Russ from any other dudes at the party as the cool sock guy.

Step#2 - Be Desireless
Nothing stinks more than the stench of desperation. Russell looks slightly aloof and coolly ignores the fact that her eyes are all over him. He's already confident and content and it's her challenge to gain his attention.

Step#3 - Be Gone
Those pursue that what retreats from us. Russell doesn't want to stick around to give up his whole story. By leaving the scene early, he leaves with his cloak of mystery intact. At this point, she knows he's got some cool sock style, he's confident and not needy... he's given her a taste, but wants to leave while she's still hungry.



There you go boys... by this point, she's ready for the 'reconnect'. Russell would have gotten her number but she can't speak yet, and Russell's penmanship is not quite up to his Casanova skills.

Russell-less update :-(

So I can't say much about what Russ has been up to this week. He left for Trinidad on Wednesday to see his Grandpa Ken and his Great Grandma Leontine.


..so i guess this will be a Daddy update...

so last night, still somewhat stunned by the Leafs win over the Red Wings, I found myself at Dan's place playing Guitar Hero. After rocking it with the Yam-man for a few hours, i had it in my mind to bring home my electric guitar at my earliest convenience. So tonight, I'm strumming it with the TV on, and I see if there's anything interesting going on with the Grammy's... at the commercial break, they say Alicia Keys is will be performing live so...being a lonely guy with the Ms. away, I figure I could use a little Alicia 'pick-me-up'.

So I basically turned the volume down and fiddled with my guitar for the next hour or so as I waited for her act.

She looked great as usual (sorry hun) and was singing "No One". Yes its totally been overplayed but she mixes it up a bit live and had John Mayer step in for some added soloing, (Unlike Kanye and the dumb, but slightly catchy, 'Stronger' - They actually muted out the "shit" and "dyke", just like on FM radio, the probably just played the CD they bought at WalMart in the background... what a meathead... I really wished he wouldn't win so he could cry about how much he should have won and would boycott the awards... blah blah blah... ) ... k so back to Keys.. so the song is going and I'm trying to follow the base line to learn the chords. The song is the 4 chords for the entire song except for the bridge. D - A - Bflat - G... so I'm playing along and I realize why that song sounds so good. They're the same chords as "Weekend in Scarborough"! Damn you Alicia for stealing my stuff!!!

Like Father Like Son

I swear i must have drove my parent loony doing this very thing when i was little. My memory is pretty poor but i recall doing this to no end as a baby.
