Mary Worth 1,121

Gina seems to think that remaining emotionally stunted at the age of 14 is somehow a desirable quality in a mate. If I'd stopped at 14, I'd still be crying in my bathtub listening to "Seasons in the Sun" on my portable 8-track tape player over and over again.

And I have to add, that CHH COFFEE is an excellent name for a coffee shop.

How in the world did Bobby become a soccer star? Shouldn't he have become a skateboarding star? Things never change from how things are when you're 14! Clearly this Bobby Black is a fraud.

Why not the NBA? Can't you picture Bobby with tattoos all over his body? Especially "BB + GB" in a giant ponytail.

Word verification was "spotim," which is what Gina did when she was trawling the Internets for Bobby.

The CHH is refers to CH2 which are hydron atoms, which when bonded to a carbon atom, produce A Methylene Carbon. However, I suspect that the suggestion it was part of the name of a coffee shop was a left-handed way of casting doubts on Gina's choice of spots to get on the internet. It is a spot where intellectuals hang out. However, Gina and the rest of us need to be concerned about Facebook Depression (American Pediatric Assoc study), geo tagging, and data collection (See Consumer's Reports June 2011). Not a place you want to post information.

Kickingit Magazine lists Bobby as one of the sport's most eligible bachelors! That settles it, Bobby is probably now a man about town, and when Gina calls he'll be saying, 'Gina who??' and Gina will be dying a thousand deaths on her side of the phone. Maybe Jill will show up to help her drown her sorrows.

I spent the weekend chaperoning a camping trip of 18 high school students, so maybe my brain is a little fried ... but it took me a really long time to parse "Kickingit."

It just took me about five tries to type it correctly. What a dumb name.

Does Charo must now run a coffee bar...Hooch(ie) Cooch(ie) coffee?

Gina: Thanks, Charo for the free water and wireless internet. I have found my Bobby! He makes my pony tail flip!

Charo: Hoochie coochie, now get out before I wash your mouth out with zee soap! (an old Carol Burnett skit)

I suppose Moy doesn't realize that Gina is just as sad, creepy, and stalker-ish as LiZa.
