My girlfriend just bought a new pressure cooker.

She says she loves all the build-up, and then a good, controlled release.

I've been dating a girl who's a professional welder, and she's always trying to get me to help her join two pieces together in a strong and lasting bond.

She says it's all about the penetration and the heat of the moment.

My rock climbing instructor told me I needed to improve my grip.

I told him, 'Funny, my girlfriend always tells me I've got a fantastic grip.'

I've been seeing a professional glassblower, and she's been instructing me on the art of shaping and molding a hot, delicate piece.

It's all about the gentle touch and knowing when to blow.
