 This is a sad story o f a bald Eagle near our first tee box. As usual I was practicing some bad shots at the driving range When I saw 2 eagles in very romantic courting behaviour when a third one joined the chase and was quickly rebuffed by the female and the other suitor. Then the vanqiushed came down and perched on the branch of a pine tree. I felt the sorrow of this guy and would have invited him to our lounge and offer a drink but I believe he was not in the mood. This is what is happening to the 'lonely boys'. My trip to LasVegas was partly for scouiting for the guys but I found none of the girls were upto coooking 3 meals, cleaning the house and walking the dog for Larry. I would not dare have 'Bill' in the pictures with his very strict military disciplines. And for me 'Big Al' declared loudly that I have too much gray hairs. Well I could have told him that he does not much hair at all. But I decided to stay aloof and not to get iny relationship to hurt some body. 'Gray hairs' Ha well I have accepted that fact.. Well Lary piped up how about going to Ukraine. He learnt that that in Russia and Ukraine most of the girls above 40 are left on the shelf and are willing to come here with marriage Visa. A 'mail order bride' I nearly choked on my drink. I said 'You can't be serious'. Larry roared 'they will cook,clean & walk the dog'. Well some how I stalled him but I had to explain the other side of it Well ladies here is your chance. A really nice guy, a retired engineer and really loaded. He is little bald but I shall throw in a 'toupe'. But downside is cooking,cleaning and walking a big matt.

In Response to Lonely 'Bald Eagle': Hi Dipak ~ Is the lonely bald eagle a symbol of Larry? Why didn't you show us single girls a picture of him? LOL! HowI about Bill? Maybe a little strict military discipline is just the ticket for some of the ladies...need a little help to stay with the exercise and gym routine to stay "buff" as they say? They may be more attractive to some of the ladies than you think...you're just looking at it from a man's perspective. I sort of think these guys like the freedom of being bachelors...what do you say? I wouldn't allow Big Al's comments about having grey hair get to me. As they say, "snow on the roof doesn't mean there's no fire in the furnace!" LOL! You can always dye your hair, but Big Al would have to join the "Hair Club for Men!" My late husband was prematurely grey and his hair was a very attractive feature. Many women love grey/white hair. It looks "distinguished," while bald looks, well, BALD! LOL! As for Larry, some women enjoy cooking...as I do. I enjoy fine dining as well! I only do a little cleaning...I do have help for that! I enjoy going for walks with my dogs...I enjoy it even more when my partner goes with me! Has Larry ever considered that? No one has to go to the Ukraine/Russia unless it's to vacation! You "lonely boys" are just not being creative in your thinking! You get the best fish when you use the highest quality bait! Um-hmm! If he is really "loaded," he should have no trouble attracting a good woman. I'm not looking for a guy who is loaded. I am comfortable and expect to pay my own way...if I can only sell my home...which is too big for me. I do not wish to enter into another marriage unless someone can give me a very good argument as to why it will be to my benefit. There are many women like me out there. "Open your eyes!" Lonely Boys!!!...there's a world of good, quality women out there looking for a "quality man!" You have set your sights too low and are too inflexible to attract them. Loosen up! Think about the "bait" you are using to attract women. If you are unwilling to change, there are going to be fewer women in the "crosshairs" for you! Lighten up! There are a lot of women who are not "golddiggers" and want to meet you halfway! Get up! Stop feeling sorry for yourselves and drowning your sorrows in the lounge. Invite a nice, quality woman to dinner, have a nice bottle of wine and let the conversation go where it will. You will find a compatible partner in no time and with little effort. If you cling to your old habits and customs...they will not want to see you again. Be creative, listen, smile a lot and don't force the "intimacy" issue too soon. They will think you are "enlightened and evolved." They will be much more malleable and amenable if you do...good luck to all!  Mimi in VAThis is a sad story o f a bald Eagle near our first tee box.

PS: Dipak...you should use the "Lonely Bald Eagle as your new avatar! He has white hair just like you. He's stately, noble and commands respect. Do like I did and change your screen name to something a little more understandable in this country...like "NobleAvian" or something like that. It will increase the mystery and make more ladies curious to find out more about you. Sorry Las Vegas wasn't exactly what you might have wanted. I'll bet, in hindsight, you can think of many fun moments and crazy stories. I'll bet you are going to tell them at the 19th hole...and enjoy the peals of laughter you elicit when you tell each one of your adventures. Don't worry about the "Lonely Boys." They are big enough to take care of themselves. You should worry about your own future and the way you want it to unfold. Take some time to think about it. Your life has changed drastically...you are no longer the young hot-shot who commanded attention. It happens to all of us. We re-assess our lives, change the things we need to and adjust our attitudes to the "New Reality" we now own. Life changes...we change...so what? The later years can be the best! We just need to focus on all of the new opportunities and adventures available, laugh at our foibles and move on. Taking a time-out and lying low won't get you there any faster, but you may need it so that you can reflect and re-group. It can be a valuable exercise in self-evaluation and moving forward. I highly recommend it. We change with the seasons of our lives or we stay stuck in the mire we create in our own minds. Just my opinion, but offered with great sincerity to a friend. ~

Hey what I am saying is the real truth. I never saw a 'Bald Eagle' so fraustrated. After a wait He swooped down in the lake to catch a fish and he missed. Obviously he was distracted but we agreed that he is a member in our group.. Larry is a nice guy but he is very introverted may be he needs a little proding to wake up. I don't think we shall let him go to Ukraine as he might face a .disaster. Big Al does not bother me as I am a snow cap with touch of black around. But Al & Dr. 'A' can save moey on hair cut. I am not really sorry about the LasVegas trip. But most of the people had their own agenda as I had. But I took some photo graphs. Only problem our little cozy lounge is getting crowded with snow birds and some of them are new and we have all ages there now. Thanks for the advice I shall try to remember. Ishall tell Larry about your letter. Thanks. Dipak

Just teasing last night...had a glass of wine and that may have had something to do with my "loose tongue!" Who am I to give advice to anyone? I apologize for "pulling your chain" if any of my comments offended you. Life can be tough for eagles and humans sometimes. ~ Mimi |

 This is a follow up. This may be the last 'hoorah' of the lonely boys.That 'Bald Eagle' was our last addition to the group. He qualified as he was rebuffed by the female and have nothing to do, not even building a nest. Well the snow birds have dealt a hard blow to the 'lonely boys'. Our cozy lounge is not that cozy any more. On the days of live performances the lounge is so crowded that it is standing room only. These folks all come about 5.00 PM and takes all the seats and even the bar is crowded and no places to perch. Larry and Bill are very discouraged. Bill has taken a security job with a firm and he tells me that when he is on duty he would shoot all intruders, And poor Larry he has been adopted by a kind friend and his wife. They provide him a free meal and he sits with them and watches'dancing with stars'. So I shall be the only floater. Well only John can help me. I have located two very eligible eminent persons for our group. But I have to have John's permission before I send them my requests. See technically they probably not singles at least one of them. But they are single in heart. One of them is the prime minister of italy Silvio Berlusconi and the other is one of our Reblican Presidential candidate. Silvio can ignite our group with his famous 'Banga Banga' party. The other gentle man is mobbed by liberal media for harrassments. I really don't think that he is at fault. He only made a gesture to one lady( he was only signaling that she is about the size of his wife). But now several other women have joined the chorus. But what a poor man can do if some woman wears a provocative dress or shows some body parts. Well if if the 'girl from Iponema' passes by me I would only say ahaa..The only problem that I am a ligit single but atleast one of these guys are only 'single in heart' Well there could be a technical difficulty. So this post could be me my 'Swan song'. But I promise to visit this place occasionally.

Have ta laugh..most older men olnly want a woman to cook, clean, and walk the dog, while women are looking for hot sex, companionship and someone who wants to do more than watch sports and hang on the couch. One reason why women turn to younger men, and men your age remain "frustrated" sorry..guys, our lives are much more than cooking and cleaning for 1 man, when we can have more than one that's willing to take us out on the town and dance the night away. And, oh yeah, take us on vactation and pay! After all, men have enjoyed younger women for years. Now it's our turn. And we wont end up with a kid to supprt at 60. ; ) Another reason why it works for us. |

How true you are speedlady69. You hit the nail on the head with that one or to put it in guy terms, you hit that one out of the park! It would also be nice to find a guy that didn't only have sex on his mind. Most of the women our age are financially secure so the men shouldn't waste time fretting over bank accounts and motives. |
