	As you can see or read, I'm new to this whole thing, as are 
most people when they're just starting out.  That's why I'm posting
this.  I need help.  Well maybe that's wrong.  I want to find people
all around the world that I can talk too, learn stuff from and
ultimately(sp?) meet.  This(Dec. 12, 92) is only my fourth day of
being plugged into the net.  There's a lot of good shit in here.  
	Since this is alt.personals I guess I'll have to tell ya'all
something about myself I'm a 6'2" Celtic lad stuck in the hinterlands
of Montana.  I'm just going to the U here and appreciating the snow.
I snowboard, but the first time out this year I banged my knee so
it'll be a while before I can go again.  I enjoy making 10 hour trips
to Seattle for concerts and just enjoying the local scene there.  I'd
like to get some response from Seattlelites for possible connections
out that way as I plan to move there or my native Alaska after
college.  Oh yeah college.  I'm a Chem/english lit/creative writing
major in the third year of the process.  Strange mix of majors, but
then I'm not exactly a mainstream kinda guy.  Non-traditional you
might say.  What else?  Well I'm a saltwater aquarium enthusiast with
interests in reptiles and amphibians.  I'm into bands like Ministry,
NIN, Alice in Chains, Gruntruck, LSD, Faith No More, etc. etc..  Well
i think that's probably enough for right now.  I don't want to be
verbose.  I don't want step on any protocals or anything.

------>	P.S.  I've been reading the postings in alt.personals and I see
	what you guys do to the unwary traveller.  Go ahead and do it
	to me too, I deserve no less.  I hope to hear or see from
	someone soon.

near me currently, however, and is going home for Christmas leaving me
all alone...  I'd love to get together with a woman who knows what she
likes and isn't afraid to ask for it....  I've had sex before, but never
'casually' and want to know what it's like...  A menage a trois would be
considered as well... (me and two of you)....  Anyone in the MD/VA/DC area
want to get together between 12/21 and 12/29???  Peace.

Um.. excuse me one moment.. I was _not_ flaming, I was trying to offer
assistance, if you read the text PROPERLY you would have seen that I was
merely trying to pint out that Alt.personals is for personals etc, chatting
and discussions. Alt.personals.ads was made for ads, although not everyone
posts their ads there, and uses alt.personals, well.. to put it bluntly, I
don't give a fuck where they are posted.. Next YOU feel like knocking

You know, this is such a load of bull. Who are you to claim this is how to
attract someone of the opposite sex (or of the same sex)? There are some
people who go through their entire lives not ever finding someone who loves
them, and many of those that do are are better (kinder, gentler, unwilling
to lie) than those who do find mates. I don't see that posting lies like
this is going to help make the world a better place.

Besides, this fuzzy platitudes make no sense. Enjoy life. Be yourself. What
if being yourself means being upset that you are alone and have been for
the last N years. Do you lie about this? Do you try to go against your true
self and pretend to enjoy life?

Maynard (who has been hearing this his entire life, knows from plenty of
experience from himself and his friends that it has no relationship to
reality, that and is quite sick of it and the implicit hyprocisy that comes
with it.)

Hey, another great post from our favorite mama's boy, Mr. Zero.I am an
EOF honey, that's Equal Opportunity Flamer, and i think you provide
GREAT material for flames.I'm glad you laughed, that's all these
things are meant to do, the fact to tried to use that as an argument
against all the idealist fat heads only proves one more thing about
your own ignorance.*shrug* NO ONE gives a care.You must admit your
post was pretty fuckin rude, because i know *plenty* of guys who need
to be loved for their minds because prime meat is sooooooo hard to
find these days.I think the main reason people were insulted is
because you had the amazing audacity to post such narrow-minded,
contradictory views of your 'dream girl', and i'll tell you something
else, your 'dream girl' is gonna have to be a schizophrenic sophomoric
bitch with a dishrag and a mop in order to fill that wish list
bozo.Good luck anyhow, and nice try at a flame but the bic you're

An open flame to Greg..............

First of all, the point of a personal is to describe to prospective members of
the opposite/same sex what you are looking for in a potential significant other
That means possibly explaining what your ideal is in the hopes that there is
someone out there who is close to what you want.  All Karin is doing is express
ing that ideal hoping that someone out there fills the bill.  I'm deeply sorry
if that offends your eyes by reading it; you could always choose not to

Second, I don't think thats what shes trying to get across at all.  Romance is
a two-way street;  i think all shes looking for is for someone willing to do
the kind of things that she would do for him.  Love is a partnership, and roman
ce is very much a part of love; both people need to be willing to do it; shes p
robably just tired of being the only one being romantic in a relationship.
She seems tired of the general kind of asshole who only wants a quick physical
thrill.

Please keep this in mind; if you don't feel you meet her qualifications (which
by reading your post I can only assume you don't)  don't answer the post.
There's no need to be an asshole; there's far too many of them posting nowadays

 I am a 4th year student at the U. of Virginia in
Charlottesville, double majoring (God knows why) in Russian
language and biology. This is my first semester out of the
closet, and already  I am beginning to sink into a state of
despair over my completely uneventful love life. In fact, I'm
about ready to give up on finding the right man. (By some
estimates, there are about 850 gay men at this school; my theory
is that there are exactly 851-- i.e.,  425 cute 'n' happy
couples, and then me.) The Catholic priesthood looks like a more
and more attractive option. (True, there are obstacles: 1> I am
now more or less openly gay, 2> I don't believe in God, 3> I am
not sexually attracted to pre-teen boys in white robes.) Before I
take such a drastic step, though, I figured I'd give
cupid.sai.com a try. I hope there's some guy out there who can
save me from a life of celibacy.  A little about me: I am 21,
stand 5'8" (I think-- but I haven't bothered to measure my height
since 11th grade.), weigh 155 lbs., have dark blond hair, and
greenish-grey eyes. Turn-ons: The male body (well, duh),
mean-spirited humor, sex, violence, and general misanthropy. And
more sex, if possible. Oh! And disco! Lots and lots of disco.
(Blondie's "Heart of Glass" never fails to send an electric
thrill down my spine.) Turn-offs: People who are just filled with
love for the whole world and everyone in it, posters featuring
unicorns and/or Yorkshire terriers saying "I wuf you," chaw,
guys who say, "I don't own my cat... my cat owns me." I could go
on forever with a list of people and institutions I despise, but
I have to go home for Xmas break in 17 days. Well, I'm looking
for an intelligent, articulate, entertaining, and (please, God?
Please? I'll start going to church again <grin>) attractive guy
of approximately my age. (Say, to the mid-20's.)  Incidentally,
though I go to school in the central VA area, my family is in
Northern VA not far from DC, so residents of that area are
encouraged to write also. So, if ANYthing I've written interests
someone out there, drop me a line.  I'll be WAITING for your
call. (licking lips provocatively.)     --Rob
