A friend of mine went on an Air America cruise a year or two ago. Rachel Maddow bought her a drink (they knew each other back in San Francisco). And she successfully stalked Paul Krugman! (She and a friend went looking for him, found him sitting alone and eating, asked him if they could join him, so they had lunch with him.)
It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sounds like a nice cruise, Tommy. Although I'd feel like my old teacher's pet self doing that. "That's a very nice tie you're wearing, Dr. Krugman." And, now, thanks to my over-politiced subconscious, I'd probably blush and spill stuff, too.

Heh. Knowing (now) that Rachel Maddow is all drink-snob, I'd be like "oh shit, what do I order???"
Best of luck with surgery and easy recovery, Barb!

I think I'd go the coward's route: "I'll have what she's having." Which is probably a mistake, as she likes pretty potent potables, but I probably wouldn't want her to know what I really drink.
