Zagat Calls It

I was in New York this week on business. I wrote my wife the following after I arrived:

Saw a Zagat ad in the subway:

Call a great dinner what it really is. Foreplay.

Laughed, thought about the topic I brought up w [our friends] a year or two ago: Is it OK for an endowed (temple, not cup size) woman to replace garments with some form of lingerie as part of her tedious nuptial obligation? If yes, at what point can the build-up to the bedroom be considered foreplay? If that line is a gradual continuum (as opposed to "as soon as the bedroom door is locked, the curtains drawn, and the lights turned off"), then would it be utter heresy to suggest that it's OK for her to wear lingerie on the date itself, without forfeiting her calling & election?

In choosing to be on Manhattan, virtually any heterosexual man with a pulse who does not confine himself to the dark rat-infested, nethermost nooks of the subway for the duration of his stay, is knowingly subjecting himself to a barrage of beauties whose variety is perhaps unrivaled on this planet.

On the flight home, for the first time in my life (if you don't count my wife) I sat next to a bona fide hottie. Sure beats a 350lb sweaty guy. Even beat the in-flight movie options, for that matter. When she sat down--yes, I was watching while she sat down--her sweater pulled up well above her waist, which was an unexpected "revelation," given how painted-on-tight her tights were...everywhere...if you catch my drift. She seemed to have caught onto this eventually and made what subtle adjustments and demure hand-placings she could, and I stealthed this shot to memorialize the arrangement.
