Coppertone
FOUND by Kevin Mateo Lim in New York City, New York
Found this tucked into a bench in Washington Square Park. I was gnashing on a dosa from the cart man, when I felt a little item on my seat. Too bad I don't qualify.

What is a dosa?

Only two mature women, but his bronzed wood caters to many many immature women... and maybe some men.

I think many women would be turned-off by the tuberculosis.

Is it Enterprises or Entertainment?

Hey, Clover... I didn't know either, so..

The dosai, dosa, dose, thosai, or dhosa is a South Indian crêpe. This food, high in carbohydrates and proteins, is a typical South Indian breakfast item. The dish is also quite popular in many countries outside India.

Don't you guys get a different colour in your mind when comparing bronze and ebony? What shade is this dude? I am thinking ebony might be more accurate if he's from Haiti. And why's he only looking for mature women? Gross!

Coper-tone? What is the color of a verb? What is the color of coping? Too early for those questions.

I have every confidence that even though Kevin took it from the park bench, that those "mature women" will know just where to find their bronze wood men....not to worry.
The mature women probably left it there on purpose - for other women...women who might be new to the city or something....you know - sharing the fun.

Mature women are way more 'experienced' and know just what they want: no games.

However, at what age IS a woman 'mature?' I think THAT is a stronger question.

What DOES "S.I.P." mean? Could it be "Secret Identity Please ?"

Bronze. Ebony. Copper.
It's all good.

I'm am guessing it's something 'Important Person', like Simply important person maybe. Could be wrong. Just plain weird. It seems to be the wording for a personal ad in a newspaper. What's crossed out?

C'mon people! He's a businessman. He's not sexually attracted to mature women, he's looking for women with money. Young women will expect him to want to 'entertain' him for free (and to pay for their meal).

I think it's the rough draft for an advertisement for the 'agency' ...and obviously, it had too many revisions and was trashed.

Could "S.I.P." be "Specialized Identity Protection Number?" That sounds logical, as I suppose all of this was done with pseudo-names and private numbers.

Well, clearly this man is terminal!

The initials at the bottom: TB.
TB = tuberculosis
and SIP? "So, I'm pneumoniatic."

That's his opening line. He follows it up by saying he's not sure whether he's dying of tuberculosis or pneumonia - all he knows is that he's dying.

So sad!

So sad, that is, until you realize that he is a con artist. A -tan- con artist. He's playing up the tan because he knows that it's sexy and women will feel worse for him if they think he's a looker.

LOL! I love it!
I read it as "catering only TO TWO Mature Women...!!!!"
Because, you know - in a threesome,you don't want more than 2 mature women - they are way too oversexed and it will wear you out and get a bit rough. Unless, that's your thing....then go for 3 or 4 mature women....LOL

SIP - Structured Intervention Program, the name of one of the wards in the hospital i work in. The program consists of two wards. So, he's a patient on the first one.

He has a crisis of self identification, doesn't know if he's bronze, copper or ebony.


i'm so confused. I want to call this bronze god from haiti.

Your all crazy, this is just a invitation for 2 old women to go have sex with a lonely man from Haiti, who had come to New York and didn't get as much ass has he had been hoping for. The S.I.P. stands for Shelter Implementation Plan which is a goverment funded project where housing is provided for those who apply. His "house" number must be #1.

still in progress, #1 indicating that it's a first draft. I get that he's trying to be discreet about his true purpose, but, seriously, I can't tell if he's proposing to install flooring or cook barbeque. I think he needs to cut 'wood' from his title altogether. And lest you let his feminine handwriting misguide you, HE'S NOT GAY! It says so clearly right there because he underlined women. Unless his gay lover would get jealous if he entertained other males.

Why "mature women" is that a) they have more money b) they probably aren't looking for a relationship, just casual sex. Coppertone male here is a gigolo, fellas. There's a myth that mature women will dissolve in gratitude to any young stud who takes the time, and will shower him with expensive gifts. This is an urban myth. Women of a certain age require quality, not conceit. They've been around the block before, they want value for money.
I take it TB are the guy's initials or his contact ID with the agency he is mocking up the ad for. One of those online things, or a dateline.
Personally, I agree with my old mother's dictum: you don't know where it's been! I certainly could never pay for sex. And I'd starve before I'd sell it.
BTW I have known some Hatians, they come all shades. Ebony may have sounded "cooler" at first try (and it is a hardwood) but bronze may have been nearer the mark.

Hi, everyone! I just got back home on Monday after brain surgery. I’m not digging for sympathy or anything, because this is actually a good thing, I just thought I’d let you know where I’ve been, since I do enjoy most of your company, and since I think it’s kind of a cool reason for my absence.

I don’t think I would have been commenting too much this past week anyway, as a lot of the recent finds haven’t really inspired me. I do like yesterday’s introspective sixth-grader though, and the “No Farting” note is pretty cool as well. And Mona, regarding your comment on that one: My good friend and mentor, Jim Martin, imparted the wisdom to me years ago that “girls don’t fart, they explode at fifty.” With that knowledge at your disposal, I’d recommend you lay off the Beano, girl.

Hi basil, don't know nuthin' about Haiti (although if I am not mistaken it's not an island, only half of one, with the Dominican Republic on the other half?)... I was referring to your statement "There's a myth that mature women will dissolve in gratitude to any young stud who takes the time, and will shower him with expensive gifts. This is an urban myth" -- taking 'mature' literally to mean 'of a certain age'. I agree these lonely UK ladies aren't 'mature' in your definition, but it seems to make them happy as well as satisfied, so who's to judge? (I watched a TV documentary about the phenomenon...) Perhaps Mr TB knew some Jamaican studs who gave him the idea.
And who's to say 'mature' women can't decide to pay for whatever they want? Mustn't be judgenmental now, must we??
