Rat men love to try new things.  They are constantly on the go between work and home, and from one new restaurant to the latest club.  Rats are known for their charm and wit, so be prepared for some banter if you truly wish to impress him.  On that note, he definitely won't stick around if he's bored.  Rat's love novelty items and souvenirs, so it couldn't hurt to gift him with a small token of your affections.  It is only when you receive a present back that you truly know you have his interest, as a Rat person is only generous with those he is inordinately fond of.

Television personality Larry King shocked many of his fans last month when, after twenty-five years hosting CNN's Larry King Live, he decided to call it quits. He also called it quits earlier this year with his wife, country singer Shawn King, but this probably didn't shock his fans as much – this was his eighth marriage, after all. Now, however, they've called divorce proceedings off, citing both the needs of their family and their continued love for each other. But is it both?
