ok, careful there big boy.  When you think you've got any female,
"precisely" figured out, yer in big trouble.  You couldn't be more wrong,
especially if you're half-way right.

In philosophic terms, the Mary in your head is not the way that Mary that
reads and responds and feels in herself.

Which is sort of an ego attack, see?  And then the claws come out and the
hissing and the mean, narrowed eyes.

And you ain't gonna get no band-aids from anyone around here.  We both know
that!
