An Ideal Husband

Dear Kate-

There are many perks that the glamorous world of Olympic figure skating offers. Of course, the well-toned gams are a huge benefit, but I think you are overlooking a much bigger opportunity. The ice rink is the ideal setting to find your mate.

Not only does the intense training ensure that your partner is in top physical condition, but the two of you will learn to work together in perfect harmony, which is good training for a marriage. You will learn to rely on him as a spring board, to catch you, and to show off your attributes. You will also learn how to best showcase his own features and make him appear appealing to the judges. All of which translates directly into a good marriage.

The hours you will have to spend together will provide plenty of time for you to get to know him and what he likes best. No doubt, when the two of you are lacing up your skates, you can take a moment to find out what his favorite meal is and then surprise him one evening by making it for him. Little treats like this will certainly catch his eye and, hopefully, be the start of a wonderful life together, both on the ice and off.

Good luck in this endeavor!
Molly

Nice Work (If You Can Get It)

Dear Molly,

I've been watching a lot of the winter Olympics in the past couple days.

My question today: Should I pursue a career in figure skating? I think it could do wonders for my gams.

Thanks,
Kate

Warren Beatty was a Real Man

Dear Kate,

What kind of man are you?? Real men take their coffee black. Learn to do so and I guarantee you will never run into this dilemma again.

And this "deadly weather" you speak of?? Turn your collar to the cold and stop complaining. A real man would fight a polar bear naked for a cup of coffee. So I have to ask again. What kind of man are you??

All the best,
Molly

Clouds In My Coffee

Dear Molly,

The coffee I ordered from the cafe across the street tastes suspiciously like it contains half & half. I had specified skim. Half & half makes me sick.

Here's my dilemma: I can't order a new one because they won't deliver a $1.68 coffee, and I'm not going to order another oatmeal and yogurt just to get the delivery price, you know? And since I can't go outside due to the deadly weather, I'm at a loss.

I need coffee real bad, dude. WHAT SHOULD I DO??

Thanks,
Kate

Up in the Air

Dear Kate,

It seems to me that 37.50 (plus 6.35 convenience charge) is not too steep a price to pay to see one of your favorite bands. Before you make your final decision, however, there are a few things you need to consider. First, have you ever seen them before? If you have, then I would recommend saving your money for something more important, say food, for example. Second, where are they playing? If they were playing a venue like Irving Plaza, I wouldn't hesitate in the least to scap up a ticket. However, if they were playing a much larger venue, where the show is much less intimate, I would consider passing on the opportunity.

I hope these thoughts help you make the right decision.

Love,

Molly

Dear Molly (Nº 1)

One of my favorite bands, Air, is coming to NYC on March 19. My question for you today: Should I cough up the $37.50 (+$6.35 convenience charge) to see them live?

If you haven't already, check out Love 2. Otherwise, I posted the video for the single "Sing Sang Sung" below for your enjoyment.

Thanks,
Kate
