Uh, what? Shane? Why are you posting fellatio videos on posts that I made a year ago?

Heh heh, thanks. I'll keep that in mind. Do you have any of your work up anywhere?

Think of it as Photography 101. It'll probably be basic stuff to learn about how cameras work, composition fundamentals, etc.

I read the link you posted again, and I'm not sure what part of it makes you think that the writer is talking about "nice guys" who are actually just trying to earn entitlement to something more. In fact, there's a passage that seems to suggest that the author is complaining about how nice guys seem to not pursue what they want or saying how the really feel, and she accuses them of being spineless and giving up things they want even when they've almost got it.

"Nice Guys rarely speak up when something bothers them, and rarely state clearly what it is they want, need and expect. They fear that any kind of conflict might spell the end of the relationship. Instead of comprimising and negotiating, they repeatedly 'give in'."

And then at the very end of the piece, she even goes out with this:

"You have to know what you want out of life, and go after it. Only then will you be attractive to the kind of woman with whom a long-term relationship is possible."

It seems to me that she wishes nice guys were more pursuant to their desires, not less, and I don't see any lines that would suggest that she thinks that "nice guys" are just acting that way to get something.

Could you quote the part that made you think that's what she was saying? I probably just missed it or something, heh.

P.S. Thank you for the compliment. And for the XKCD link too. :P

I'm also interested in this and would like to get in on the early action, heh.

It would also be very, very cool to have Google Friend Connect, btw.
