My cat was a better filter then the Stereo.
If the lady and cat got along, it was a very good sign.
If the lady liked my cooking.....BBQ, home made bread and a trip out later for desert, that was also a good sign.
Nothing worse than a woman who picks at her food and tries to stare a cat down. Near-automatic disqualifier.
As for the guy with the boombox? Do people with megabuck stereos SERIOUSLY think that makes them classy? My spouse works at a very hi-end resort / spa which has far more than its share of rich jerks. People that need someone to tell them the time......or tell them what the weather is like....when the door is 30 feet away. So much for rich and classy.
Listening to records! A suspicious 'fringe' activity. As for the B&O, it is terrific eye candy, more akin to art for the eye and ear. But not for the serious lunatics that post here!
