)Hhhmmmmm.... given our audience, let me see if I can put delicately a less than delicate reference. Ole Gar said "...YA AINT GITTIN EENY TUNITE". For us guys that usually means one of three things:
1. She's not in the mood (no OTR there)
2. You did something to resulted in a denial of service (no OTR there either).
3. The required equipment is down for its routine 28 day maintenance cycle.
It is this last item to which "OTR" refers. While the cycle is routine owner maintenance - no logbook entries are required and the tools can be found at any "personal parts store" - it is, nevertheless, required down time. During this time the operator may not run on all cylinders and be difficult to interface with and should be treated with care. (Many books have been written on the subject, but none have been able to provide all the answers to the myriad of issues that may arise during this time)
Just as a mechanic would use "RAG"s during his daily maintenance duties, so, I'm sure, did our partner's ancestors do the same. As a result, the aforementioned maintenance cycle is sometimes referred to as "On The R--".
My apologies to our more sensitive members.

Gee I answered the fellows seemingly honest question, got thanked for it and then I get back on a few days later to find I was duped!
Or was I???????
Makes me wonder where the fun went here. I seem to be the only one to try to help this guy if indeed his question was an honest one. And I believe it probably was.

Check Out This Point System:
Subject: Rules for Dealing with Women
For thousands of years, men have tried to
understand the rules
when dealing with women.
Finally, this merit/demerit guide will
help you to understand
just how it works.
Remember, in the world of
romance,
one single rule applies:
Make the woman happy. Do something she likes, and
you get points.
Do something she dislikes and points are
subtracted.
You don't get any points for doing
something she expects.
Sorry, that's the way the game is played.

I'm in Wichita, KS still at simulator school (on the C-421) and in todays Wichita newspaper is a letter to the editior regarding personal opinions of subscribers.
One of the wrote: "I believe we should all live by the Old Testament laws found in Leviticus, so that menstruating women should not be allowed in public. I'm tired up having to put up with moody women!"
