How To Make Yourself Immune To Jealousy
Monday, April 21st, 2008The period after breaking up with a long-term girlfriend or spouse is often a difficult one. I think it’s easy for men (and women) to become so comfortable and emotionally dependent in a relationship that they experience a lot of FEAR when ending that relationship…
“What’s going to happen?”
“Will I ever meet another woman?”
“How do I [...]
Why Do Some Women Dress To Kill?
Sunday, April 20th, 2008You know what I mean…A perfectly beautiful woman gets an expensive operationĀ to make her one cup larger…A tall, stunning model spends all day at the mallĀ shopping for just the right high-heeled shoes…A naturally beautiful woman spends hours in front of the mirror getting ready to go out… and puts on tons of makeup…

People At The Gym I Can’t Stand
Thursday, April 17th, 2008I’ve worked out for a long time in a lot of different gyms and cities. I’m pretty tolerant of others, but I’ve been finding that the older I get, the more frustrated I’ve become with certain groups of people. Lately, I’m fantasizing more and more about administering some dumbbell therapy to effect positive changes in [...]
How To Have A Successful Business Meeting
Friday, April 11th, 2008In Missouri at least, there is some mysterious attraction of business men toward St. Louis (or Panera) Bread Co. as a place for meeting. Why is this the “place to meet”? Sure it’s got a wi-fi hotspot, but I advocate that strictly oral meetings to accomplish a business objective, especially in a restaurant, are doomed [...]
Does American Society Demand Too Much Of Us?
Thursday, April 10th, 2008NOTE: This was actually written a couple years ago or so. While I still mostly agree with it, some of the biting attitudes of cynicism are no longer with me and there are certain small details I no longer believe. The bottom line is that we cannot be everything to everybody, so stop trying. The [...]

"Better than Cosmo! Others just recite facts, but I like your posts best because of the in-depth analysis."
"Great work! Your stuff is a sight for sore eyes in this wash of dumbed down crap for the masses I see all the time on the internet."
"Greg is a dapper gent, intelligent, and easy to hang with. He made me feel right at home in his film noir-esque lair. We talked at great length about books, influences (we both write), and on a broad range of topics that might cause one to raise an eye brow while pondering. He was great fun to roam the city with. I'm looking forward to another round of pursuing art exhibits and deep dialog over late night coffees the next time we cross paths."
"Greg! Thank you so much! I will not forget this! Your help will make it easier for me to secure a job when I get back home from Switzerland!"
"Dude I hate to write you about this again but those nutrition tips you sent me were a fucking godsend. Anyway, I do appreciate ya... you're a good egg."
"Dear Mr. Greg: You are creative and amusing... two things I find irresistible. If I didn't live so far away, I'd go after you myself! Thanks for all the laughs."
"Hey thanks for all the stuff on girls and relationships. I was up reading last night for like 3 hours. We had an earthquake not too long ago here in California, but man, some of the stuff you wrote shook me more than the quake!"
"I have to say, you provided several hours of entertainment for me just now. It is a great thing to know there are other people with similarly twisted senses of humor and intelligence. Thank you very much Greg Thompson, and good luck with the woman of your dreams. Should you ever feel the need to entertain me again, please feel free to do so, I'll take it any way I can get it."
