After reading Fred's post on how a good bridge player gets a well deserved star, i doubt i qualify, since i only play on BBO (for now)....

When i do get my star, you can have all the info shrike i hope you are patient

Aisha

Oh, all right. So now we need to get you that star.

Fred, or anyone else of that caliber: any room for Aisha on your next Spingold or Vanderbilt team? Please?

Judging from reading her posts, I am sure it would be fun
to play with Aisha.

Judging from her picture, I don't think my wife would approve

You can play with Aisha if you so wish, Fred

In fact, how about you play with Aisha and i play with Sheri ????

Looking at Sheri's picture (does she REALLY have those cheek-bones ?? ), I dont think Aisha will approve either , but i can always send Aisha a picture of my anaemic, club-footed second-cousin who has acne problems and putrid body odour, Aisha'll never guess

We can put a bet on ( See raising money for VuGraph thread) who can come up with the corniest flirtatious remark and best bridge-play...

PS Dont judge her by her picture, man. I got her to throw that turquoise cardigan out 6 months ago as it doesnt complement her skin color

I probably should not have started this politically incorrect
discussion (as some people may have been offended), but
I will try to finish it properly.

Sheri has many wonderful qualities. She also happens to be
a very beautiful woman in my view. Every day I think about
how lucky I am to have found her and this has very little to
do with her physical appearance.

She is also not the jealous type and has no problem with me
playing bridge with whoever I want, regardless of their gender
or how they look.

My previous post was intended as a joke (probably not a very
good one) and I hope everyone understood it as such. If anyone
was offended (especially Aisha who seems like a lovely person)
then I apologize.

seems like a BIG misunderstanding Fred may have condensed from this..

Never suggested anything other than what i wrote, and i hope nothing sinister was read into it....

Sheri does appear to be a beautiful woman, and i am sure she is, in all ways, looks included. From what you said, we BOTH seem to be lucky men

1) Aisha was not offended - in fact was quite flattered - with your post.

2) it was a joke, and understood as such, and quite a good one, in my opinion

Sorry for misunderstanding...

I meant what i said about Aisha's cardigan ) i had to buy her a new one.

(And no doubt have to buy her a pair of shoes and matching hand-bag too now [I KNNNNNEWWW i shouldnt have responded])

[fred]

I was not offended by your post in the least - in fact I found
it funny, but I have learned the hard way that there are
plenty of people who think that posts like the ones we made
are not funny at all.

Reason for my previous post is that BBO Forums is supposed
to be about bridge. My view is that when we depart from that
subject (and when we don't), we should try to be careful to be
sensitive to other people's feelings.
