I don't know about anyone else, but heyschweetie and all her girlfriends have always wanted to have Lyle Lovett's babies. If you thought you'd never be able to live up to his stature with the Texas babes, try as you might, you can really throw in the towell now. Talk about a Texas Legend. He just survived a raging Bull Attack and saved his uncle's life in the process. I mean, this is equivalent to a salty ole fisherman surviving a shark attack. This proves his mettle. This is a really funny article. Lyle actually raised a bull, and his uncle was trying to discipline him. funny stuff. <a href="http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/story.hts/metropolitan/1325383">Uncle says he escaped bull thanks to Lovett</a>
Lyle Lovett, without a doubt, has to be one of the ugliest people I've ever seen. Why women, especially one like Julia Roberts, thinks he is something is beyond me. Maybe Mrs. JB aka Hangout Girl could shed some light on why women think Lovett is so great. However, I will say that after watching the Oscars (on tape today) that being married to Julia Roberts is hardly something worth aspiring to. God, I now see where subtomic was coming from on how annoying and obnoxious she was. It was like she was either drunk or really high on drugs especially when she jumped into a bewildered Denzel Washington. I found it funny in that article that Lovett and his uncle, Calvin Klein (I was laughing my ass off just with that name) kept hitting that bull. Good job geniuses...wonder why he went after the 2 of you?
We (ladies) go for personality, not looks. Looks have very little to do with it. I'm afraid Julia Roberts is kind of a flake. She's not known for staying with any one relationship too long, and I hear she's been seeing a married man right now and it's not a secret. She was pretty irritating at the Oscars (and what was up with the weird cutouts on her dress?) Calvin Klein - are we sure that's his real name, or are they trying to pull a fast one on us (think about "Back to the Future") - what was he doing hitting a bull over and over again?
Way to stereotype. I guess the females I know who do go for looks are not actually "ladies" (not to mention the women I know who go for money). (I guess I should put this in the pet peeves thread. I don't like it when people say that certain groups of people think and feel a certain way when we know that the individuals within that group think and feel many different ways).
Well Manny, I can't speak for all women but I'm not attracted to men based on their looks. I've always been drawn to men that I feel an emotional and intellectual connection with. Looks are fleeting -- I know I don't look the same as I did 10 years ago and neither does Jeff, but our relationship has only deepened over the past decade. I think the most endearing quality Lyle Lovett has is his genuineness. He seems like an honest-to-goodness decent human being. The man saved his uncle's life by putting his own life in jeopardy for chrissakes! In addition, he writes witty songs and comes across as a thoughful, intelligent person in interviews. Plus, the whole musician thing is very appealing as well. And mrpaige, it sounds like you've been hanging around the wrong women!
Looking good just gets you into the game. You gotta have a lil substance to stay in the game. Rocket River
Well, that's what you get for trying to pick them up in bars. Around there, you find more of the shallow type... So, if you're just looking for a one-night stand, that's the way to go. If you want an actual relationship, you'll have better luck getting to know women in other ways. Some of them don't like the bar scene.
Isabel, that is pretty funny. Austin is probably 52% female, yet 6th street bars have a 4 guy to 1 girl ratio. BTW, I don't strictly goto bars to pick up women. I'm not shallow at all.
What do bars and their patrons have in common? They both look AWFUL when they turn the house lights on. Man, I can't tell you how many bars I've played in over the years and, at the end of the night, looked down and thought, "I was standing on THAT!!!???" Same thing goes for the hot girl or guy across the bar. The closer you get and the more daylight lands on them, the more frightened you become.
