Read this only if your emotions and intellect have outgrown puberty;

just got on the net a few weeks ago.  i'm temped to start an 
alt personals.ads.adults in hopes of cutting through the crap.
most of it resembles a frat house bathroom wall.  no wonder sats are
so low! 

anyway, i have seen some ads that look like they're written by real people
and i'm taking the time to respond to them.  I live in Charlottetown, prince
 edward island, a small canadian province on the east coast, pushed out of the
 picture by new brunswick and nova scotia.  nova scotia is where carley simon's
 friend went to see the total eclipse of the sun.  (you're so vain)

i'm a thirty-eight year old male, former journalist-broadcaster, now freelance
writer, single parent (ten year old boy), about to become student
 (computer programming), looking to converse with m/f's who are interested in
 developing friendships.  i'm also open to the possibility of meeting a woman
 who shares some common interests with me, and who doesn't mind taking time
 to know somebody before making a decision about relationships.

i've just spent the last year and a half working on me.  a three year
 relationship went sour and i needed the time to make some changes.  i'm
 interested in meeting people who want to become all they can be, flames can
 burn out elsewhere and retentives can shut their mouths as well as their
 minds.  i take my friendships seriously, and as a writer, enjoy talking about
 things that really matter.

i collect records and books, and know a bit about both.
If you want a friend on the east coast of canada, (someone to maybe visit
 during the next total eclipse of the sun) drop me a line at

Are you saying that all .sig's deserve the same amount of affection?

Is it just me or does that seem a bit pointless? all these newsgroups most 
likely have a varied membership... fer instance, I'm on the first 3, but not
the next three....

So if I say male, earthling and you get a big list or such stats, what will

Hi,  I hope that speacial someone gets this.  I`m 26 and just out of college for
a year now.  I live in the Berkeley area.  I`m looking for someone to spend time
with and most of all someone I can cuddle and show affection to (some in return please).  I have two cats, but they just can't hug back.  Well, I could post all
that usuall stuff about how cute I am, and my weight (165lbs). Actually I really
do keep myself looking trim and squeezable.  I have gotten over my last love
( 6 months since ) and I'm ready to move on and live again.  I'm into a lot of 
different things.  I like going out hiking, movies, dancing, and cycling.  I 
would like so much to hear from women who are looking for a REAL relationship,
not just a quick fling.  I don't smoke or drink, so if you do, you`ll definately
find me BOARING.  Oh, I`m 5`11" and a mix of African/Irish/ and Native Crow
blood.  Yep, I really look remarkable......well in a nice pleasant way.  I`m
educated in physics and astronomy, but I never lost my humanity or humor.  I do
wish to hear from you.  So if you are looking and living in the San Fransisco
area, drop me a line.

[Tale of woe deleted]

Sounds like you got a bit of a shock there.  Obviously, next time you'll
want to swap photos first!  Actually, that's probably not a bad idea in any
case - if someone gives a grossly inaccurate portrayal of their appearance,
said person may be inclined toward "inaccuracies" in other things -
something a recent photo may help to reveal.  So as not to take sides, let
me suggest that it is possible that "Ms. X" was not trying to be deceptive -
her friends might also be similarly overweight, and most people don't give
their particular style of dress too much thought (as in, "Oh, I'd better
mention that...").  The only "punks" I have ever seen were back in my
college days, when the local high schools had numerous punk kids roaming
about, but that's not to say that style isn't widespread elsewhere - I
honestly don't know.  At any rate, a simple exchange of photos would
probably have been a good idea - especially considering the distance between
you two.
B
As for her getting "psycho" on you and then wanting to move in with you - it
sounds to me like she had probably just gone through something like breaking
up with someone, or perhaps family trouble at home.  It's good that you told
her she was moving a little fast, but would your answer have been the same
if she looked like a fashion model?  I would hope that your answer would be
yes, but only you can say for sure.

>So before you get all hot and bothered over a personal, WATCH OUT! This

Gee, that's funny - I've lived up north all my life and I've only ever seen
a few punks, none of whom were overweight and sporting nose rings.  You
*SURE* she was a typical northerner?  ;^)

This woman must think she's God's gift to man.  To those of you who

 Felicitous feline looking for that special pussy with an econonmy-sized
 can of Miss Mew.  I have burned all of the hair off my body and often
 masturbate up while pawing a piece of kleenex hanging from a thread.
 What I really need is to be punished for being a naughty kitty and have
 cat-nip stuck up my nostrils while having a rubber mouse inserted up my
 behind.
 
 Any WF want to experience the rasp of my tongue???? :*}
 
 Any WF want to rip out my claws from the roots while yowling the theme
 music from Cats ?
 
 If so, I want to cough-up your furr-balls.  I want to shred your
 furniture.  I want to shed my silken fur on you.  I want to feel your
 dagger-sharp nails under my chin.  Curl my whiskers.

Just try and put me into the tub. I'll scratch and bite and when we  stop
we'll realise that its now three days latter. You can stroke my fur the 
wrong way, you can forget to oil my coat. I'll still be there. 
I just don't have stamina, I've got nine lives.  I'll be happy to see
you every time you come home from work and I'll have a tuna casarole 
on the stove. On all fours I'll rub up against your stocking-clad legs
and you'll just be able to hear my  sub-sonic purring over the sound 
of my fur on your silk. I'll cut  through your blouse with my incisors
and your soft cries will be drowned out by my gutteral moans. 

In the darkness, have you ever admitted that you are really just an
animal. If so, than I am yours. My liar is sound-proof and only lacks
you and your ability to accept pleasure incarnate. Bull dogs need not
apply.
