                   The Whirling Dervish and the Souless Man

While sitting [1] at Fisherman's Wharf listening to the Grateful Dead
coverband Crazy Fingers [2] I was watching attractive girls dance to the
music. There was one I found compelling, her dance coreographed perfectly to
the music, a real joy to watch.

Unfortunately she seemed to be there with a significant other, one who didn't
look like he was enjoying it there at all. Large, well muscled with the short
crop hair of a Marine, sitting in an uptight position. Other than being
physically large and well muscled, I couldn't see what she saw in him, but I
would probably say that of any guy she was with that I didn't know.

Why him and not me?

The eternal geek question, that one.
