So does that make him a sort of man whore? Sorry for my ignorance as I have no idea how these things are suppose to work but I find it interesting.

[edit]You might consider not admitting anything about that arildno. Taking advantage of someone under the influence may be considered date rape you know...[/edit]

Come on! What's wrong with him? I know he's alittle too old and talkative, but you can't find a better bf, can you?

And what would you have done?
The guy was dangling and prancing about in the Tiki Bar with his boxers pulled down over his head!
The fact that I just stumbled into him, was a mere knee-jerk reaction.
Just a reflex, really.

Well, if it isn't what I think, then I have nothing to fear from him shooting (or, trickling, that is..)

Wow how men change? They end up with fighting in every arguments. They start talking to someone very nicely but after a while they get tired of playing roles and show their real nature! So they start fighting!

Oh, I see. Well then at least let me offer you some useful advice.

Old ammo does not always function properly so make sure your using some fresh ammo.

Since the guns are not likely to be often used you should make sure the barrel is free of any obstructions.

Make sure you thoroughly clean your gun.

And make sure your gun is sighted in... I have no idea how many paces you take for a duel but I imagine you would want to take aim.

Aim for the heart. You want to shoot for a large target area and you want to make the kill as fast as possible. You wouldn't want to give him an oppertunity to get an extra round off before he's dead, would you?

And may the best man win...

Well, if you're more comfortable with the idea that I'll float about your pillow as some sort of incubus, that's fine by me:
I am just a spirit.
