| April 23, 2003 Newsletter And we thought a kiss was just a kiss... 1. First-date Peck: There is nothing more filled with trepidation than that first lip-to-lip contact. What if -- horror of horrors -- you don't like it? Or even worse, your date doesn't? This kiss is a socially-loaded bomb that could either send you into orbit or destroy your hopes completely. 2. The Air Kiss: This vacuous salutation has been so refined over the years that it's become a parody of itself. First it was a quick smacking sound next to one cheek. Then it was the same next to either cheek. Now, it's three air-pecks -- one cheek, the other cheek and back to the first cheek -- for everyone to feel satisfied. 3. The Masher: It goes like this: You pucker up and The Masher bears down on your tender mouth, mashing your lips flat and making tooth-to-tooth contact. Then the grinding begins. Best to have a perennial cold around this person. 4. Cheek Kiss Gone Awry: Hey, we've all done this. It's when you try to kiss someone on the cheek and you both get a little bit nervous and end up seesawing back and forth trying to pick a side and you end up landing one...on their lips. 5. The "Aussie Kiss." The good news is that you don't have to live in the southern hemisphere to become an expert at this one. What is it? The same as a French kiss, except 'down under.' Now that's what we call a great way to say G'day! |
