SWM, 47, wants to meet a positive thinking, intelligent, attractive
woman, 30-early 40's, to become friends, do things together & have fun.
 
I expect to move into the Dallas area in December and I will be there
quite a few times between now and than.

Any woman who eats Powdermilk Biscuits has the strength to

I have a feeling you're going to be looking for a while.  But good

you find someone who measures up to your exacting standards.

Hi,
      Do you love the country, horses, quiet starry nights, a warm fire in the
winter, good books and movies then I would like to hear from you.  I am on the
lower side of forty and have been divorced for a couple of years and need to
settle in.  I enjoy cooking, horses , travel, the finer things in life as well
as the root items.  I am a proffesional, have a degree in Mathematics, look
somewhat like Kenny Rogers, have a sense of humor, and have a hard time sitting
still.  I am a non smoker, only drink occasionaly (occasionally wine with
dinner or an exotic beer), absolutely no drugs, love to have fun, and find
myself rather impulsive when it comes to spending money or going somewhere.  I
like women that have substance (no skinny women for me), full figured, know how
to cook and can be intellectually and personally stimulating.  If you can ride
a horse, or just think you might want to try.  Drop me a line, I need a stable
mate.

lbs.) and have a good build because I work out regularly.  I am clean cut and
look like your typical wholesome midwestern type of guy.  I enjoy music,
attending concerts, going out to dinner, and good conversation. I am very well
educated and have experienced many things in life.  I am honest and sincere and
looking for guys who are the same.  

If you share any of these interests or are just curious, please send me a
response.  Who knows?  We could have a lot of fun.

I'm looking for a SF around my age who has similar interests.  If you fit the

Sorry to burst your bubble buddy, but I'm not one of them - I am Muslim
and excuse you not stupid - just monotheistic.  :-)

Certainly you asked, quite purturbed (but hey, I've got news for you,
there are *no* stipulations in the newsgroup to *not* exclude any
religious thoughts, beliefs, and/or anecdotes - do you subscribe to
censorship?):

>	All right ... what species is HE and how many tentacles does

And I will answer your question with the same:

	What species is SHE and how many tentacles does
	SHE have ?  How *&$#$@*# presumptuous of you to
	flame me because of my beliefs, in addition to
	add on the header something that you are completely
	uninformed of.

We have enough wars to deal with - let us just have fun without
being abrasive or abusive.  That certainly was my intention.

Let's stop here for a second. Darryl's SERVICE is discriminatory. His policies
are discriminatory. I think you are confused. Darryl does not run 
Alt.Personals. I think that is where the problem came from. Darryl only runs
the anonymous service, which is, by your own admission later in this post,
discriminatory.

So you are saying that discrimination is a good thing.

How is that. By saying that his service is discriminatory, they are 
discriminatory?

 That, in

Yes, because, I believe, you are or were misinformed.


>BTW, I don't post anything anonymously now; Darryl won't let me--because,
                                             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
...... I am married.
       ^^^^^^^^^^^^
Please define this for me. What if you, or primarily your wife, wanted to 
post anonymously just to talk with someone, without the bother of having her
e-mail address posted. Darryl DECIDES that this is not possible because
she is married. What now.....there is no other service, so she doesn't post.
You basically ended the arguement with the admission that you, too, are being
discriminated against.

When you complain that Darryl is forcing his morality on everyone else, and try
to coerce him into changing his service to something that suits you, and calling
him and his service disciminatory, THAT IS ATTEMPTING TO FORCE YOUR MORALITY ON
HIM AND EVERYONE ELSE HERE!  The fact that you act like Pat Robertson and Jerry

is sickening.  Your hypocricy is stinking up this newsgroup.
