Because it looks like you have a Holy Bible-shaped lighter, hanging out at Sundance and behind your hazel eyes is a mind that think thoughts rarely thought. And because your aura is all-over bad-ass.

Because our new favourite expression is blue-sky thinking.

Because a tan and stripes is a very good combination. And with that cool air of an American dude, it reminds us of the male character from One Day, David Nicholls' best-selling love story which contains several grains of truth.

He wonders if he still might tell her that he loves her or, more tentatively, that he 'thinks he might be in love with her', which is both more touching and easier to back out of.
/.../

He picks up the phone. He is frankly drunk now, and with drunkenness has come the old compulsion: to say something stupid to an attractive woman.

And from the leading lady;

'Dexter, I love you so much. So, so much, and I probably always will.' Her lips touched his cheek. 'I just don't like you anymore. I'm sorry.'
/.../

'Oxfordshire. Very nice,' she said, privately mortified at the speed with which initimacy evaporates, to be replaced by small talk. Last night they had said and done all those things, and now they were like strangers in a bus queue. The mistake she had made was to fall asleep and break the spell. If they had stayed awake, they might still have been kissing now, but instead it was all over and she found herself saying; 'How long will that take then? To Oxfordshire?'

Because you land perfectly in the grey zone between being a secret agent and a cast member from Singing in the rain. And because happy eyes is the most attractive thing we know.

Because you look classy in a reversed sports cap, seem to know how to drop a beat and certainly possess a few Justin-moves. And although Mr. Timberlake isn't one of our favourites, he does speak to our hearts;
"I wanna be your sky,
so blue and high,
and every time you think of me,
I wanna blow your mind",
or an even more striking all-round philosophy;
"I just want to enjoy my life and show this world how to care".

Because we would like to see some evolution of the kind where people start spending more same space-same time together, instead of exercising their fingers on smart phones or staring at an utterly non-arousing facebook page.

Because life can't be fun and games all the time, but smiling clearly makes things a lot more delightful. Or as Mark Twain put it; "The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter."

Because you're cute. And because we got a very nice compliment the other day when our ability to write poems for random people was deemed a more entertaining party trick than the iPhone aura photo application.

Because RSVP-ing is not your thing.

Because if there is one thing we have to pick, that we love the most, about New York City - it has to be the human capital. Especially the abundance of gorgeous music men with beards. This, in combination with sunny days and warm night is simply irresistible, and we are once again convinced that Heaven is right here on Earth.

Because we are sure you made that smokey-dijon-honey-chipotle bbq marinade with your own hands, that you went surfing today, have a dog, a sports car and that the Bud is cold as ice. And because this is what we envision when we dream of American men.

Because when changing trains we got a pamphlet from some Latter Day Saint-type with the title AIDS and the BLOOD. In it you could read some very riveting information;

If you get AIDS, death is sure. [Compared to our otherwise eternal lives.] However, there is something at work in your body right now that is deadlier than AIDS. The Bible calls it SIN -- and it is in your blood.

Yes, we can feel it pumping in our veins and boy, do we love it!

Well, let's see. Maybe because you look like a cowboy outlaw with a heart made of cotton candy. Or because we just read about the myth of rich, liberal states and poor, conservatives states.

In fact, if only the richest Americans would vote, the Democrats would win no more than four states; Massachusetts, New York, Conneticut and California. Whereas if only the poorest Americans would vote, the Republicans would win merely two states; Idaho and Wyoming.

We don't know if it is the slightly rolled up sleeves, the tanned arms, the beautiful jawline, the dark curls or the wonderful hair piece, all your hot friends in the background, the California sunshine, or the way you seem so at ease with life, but dude, you are gorgeous.

These boys are certainly a sure sign of a good time, which also happen to be the message plastered across New York City subways promoting light beer. Not seeing the point over exposure to Bud Light, our friend, the culture and media expert, laid it down for us; "Well, it's summer you know. People don't want to be fat. They wanna drink beer."

Oh boy, do we love the Americans! Once again are we in our prime element, and filling up the lungs with the oxygen of life.
If people call us Sweet in Sweden, our newly required nicknames are Crazy and Trouble.
- I can tell that you are trouble.
- No, I'm not. I'm a ray of sunlight.

Then again, it is the whole issue of values, where the Yankees have a peculiar tendency to put money and work before friends, family and lovers. And from that point of view, being exposed to unconditional love, however briefly, might be very troublesome for, say, future existence.

What can we say, besides throwing around some wise quotes;
"You can either be miserable or happy. The work is the same, the choice is yours."

Because pretty boys who wear cardigans and make music, only strengthen our belief that all we need in life is a dancing partner.

Tip #1. Current goals aren't the only goals. They're beginnings.

Tip #2. Move from naive passion to informed passion. Learn to start again and again.

Tip #3. Resistance is a natural part of creative action. Know what to do.

Tip #4. Focus imagination. Work on one idea directly in front of you today.

And remember, fear is what's stopping you from doing your best. Failure is extremely likely and uncertainty is always present in any new action, so it is better to make friends with those two from the start.

Although that beard would be classified as a goatee if slightly more groomed, we're still into the whole sun kissed, rugged prairie look that is rather hard to find on lunch breaks.

A Vietnamese proverb that recently came across our path goes "A day lived, a sea of knowledge earned." And today we were discussing the pros and cons of being able to hook up with people without getting attached. We're saying that it is quite similar to tennis. We enjoy the game so much, that it doesn't really matter who we are playing with.
