The art of seduction
After having read ‘the Game’ by Neal Strauss, I decided to look if the internet communities he describes on the pickup game really exists and back up his claims. These guys have taken a good look at what works when picking up women and tried to apply rules to their behaviors, drastically improving their chances of a successful pickup.
The mASF forums are a good source of information,
including their instructions on what to do to get into the community first.
The have the guide – a sort of howto.
Everyone reccomends David D’angelo’s “Double your Dating”. Buy it here.
Cliff’s List is an archive (and still growing) newsletter for the speed seductionist.
Dutch Seduction is the Dutch lair of pickup artists with a lively local forum.
Natural Game has a lively forum going on as well.
The seduction community toolbar by Diabolik is a labour of love, allowing you to search techniques through the community without hitting strange Google results.
Happy sarging!
Bedding quality
So if you want to sleep comfortably, one of the ways to get a better sleep is by looking at your sheets.
The factor we all know about is thread count – how many threads per square inch of fabric. Nowadays manufacturers are coming out with 1000 / 1600 thread count materials. This is not the whole of the story though. You need to also look at
– ply
– yarn size
– type of cotton
– how it’s woven
If it’s 2 ply, then it becomes heavier and is kind of cheating, as they up the thread count by first interweaving two threads and then weaving the fabric.
Large yarn is better.
Sea Island, Egyptian (Ashmouni) or Pima (US) cotton is best as the cotton strands (the “staple”) themselves are longest. Some people prefer sateen, which has polyester in it, making it slightly less ‘slippery’ or silky than pure cotton.
There are four main types of ELS (Extra Long Staple) cotton:- American upland , Egyptian, Sea Island and Asiatic.
(1) American upland is a plant with green coloured flowers. It gives a large yield with white fibres 7/8”-1-1/4 inches in length.
(2) The Egyptian cotton has lemon coloured flowers and produces long silky light tan fibres
1-1/2” in length. The American variant of this strain is Pima Cotton which yields fibre of 1-3/8” & above in length.
(3) Sea island cotton is grown in the West Indies . It has yellow flower and is a slow grower and the white fibres are 1-3/4” in length used for high quality textile.
(4) The Asiatic strain produces a low yield of short, coarse, harsh fibre.
Egyptian cotton seems to be grown in Karnak.

Howto Walk
So what can we do?
We can wear Vivo Barefoot shoes:
where the sole is so thin that it feels like you’re walking on bare feet but are protected.
Or there’s the Vibram five fingers shoes:
You can buy them from toesocks.nl
Of course if you want to wear socks with them you need toe socks!
or more high tech socks

Are Kids Copying Their Parents When They Lie?
this article goes into great depth on the studies about what makes a child (from pre-schooler to teen) lie, what they lie about and how often they do this. The numbers are quite surprising!

Legalise it – and no one wants it
Yup, we should be dead
Thought this might strike a chord or two!!
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE KIDS WHO WERE BORN IN THE:-
1940’s, 50’s,60’s and 70’s !!
First,
we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us.
They
took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a tin, and didn’t get tested for diabetes.
Then
after that trauma, our baby cots were covered with bright coloured lead-based paints
We had no
childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode
our bikes, we had no helmets, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking .
As
children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags.
Riding
in the back of a van – loose – was always great fun.
We
drank water from the garden hosepipe and NOT from a bottle.
We
shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this.
We
ate cakes, white bread and real butter and drank pop with sugar in it, but we weren’t overweight because……
WE
WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!!
We
would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back
when the streetlights came on.
No
one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K.
We
would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem
.
We did not have
Playstations, Nintendo’s, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 99 channels on cable, no video tape movies, no surround sound, no cell phones, no text messaging, no personal computers, no Internet or
Internet chat rooms……….WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!
We fell out of
trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents
.
We played
with worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.
Made up games
with sticks and tennis balls and although we were told it would happen, we
did not poke out any eyes.
We
rode bikes or walked to a friend’s house and knocked on the door or rang
the bell, or just yelled for them!
Local teams
had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn’t had to learn
to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!!
The idea of a
parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!
This generation
has produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors
ever !
The past 50
years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas.
We
had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we
learned
HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL!
And YOU are one of them!
CONGRATULATIONS!
You
might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the lawyers and the government regulated our lives for our
own good.
and
while you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave their parents were.
Kind of makes
you want to run through the house with scissors, doesn’t it?!

Toxic Wife Syndrome
The danger signals of a wife going toxic are all too plain:
— She gives up work to care for the children and then sends them to boarding schools as soon as they outgrow their nannies.
— She demands wall-to-wall help with a maid hired to work up to 14 hours a day six days a week.
— Cooking and housework are strictly out of bounds.
— They have to live in a country mansion, forcing the husband to commute daily to London.
