Honestly, if I see someone who looks interesting I walk/roll up to them and say "Howdy I'm Robert, what cha' doin'?" Then I say whatever pops into my head. Sometimes people think I'm nuts, mostly they talk to me... rarely, but sometimes I find someone who I want to stay in touch with. It is pretty simple.
