Happy birthday.

Now to try answering your questions (at least my answers, I answer
for nobody else)!

Yes and No.  I have a lot of fun with my friends, but still lack the
intimacy I would expect from a wife.

>Are we in a transitory state just waiting
>to get married?

This one isn't (in spite of what I said before)!

>Are we all hedonists?

This one isn't... that much.  A gourmand (Androgum), maybe.

>Do we all have red 'vettes,
>condos, and the latest clothes?

No, no, and no.  There's more to life than that.  (Admittedly, my 
Spectrum is red :-)

>Do we only go to swinging
>singles bars?

No, certainly not.  When I finish reconciling the Russians and the
Chinese, I hope to do something relaxing, like perhaps ending apartheid
or the baseball strike...

>Are we all "swinging"?

If I interpret this the way I think you want me to, no.  I am too
much the gentleman for that! :-)  (And too chicken!)
