Realizing that this newsgroup is read by about 40,000 men and 8 women 
(all of whom are either psychotic, married, have already dated me, not 
interested, or all of the above), I blindly fire the following out into 
the matrix anyway. Who knows, maybe there's really NINE women reading 
this.
 
SWM, 26, ISO ...anyone? (I suppose I prefer females. Hard to argue with 
the biological imperative.)
 
Me: In a "perfect world", I'd be a writer-cum-bard, traveling about the 
country, jotting down impressions of life and people. *sigh* Of course, 
this isn't a perfect world. I currently make my living as a dataslave, 
riding herd over a network of Macintoshes, whiling away time filling up 
word processor screens. In my leisure time, I try to write, but usually 
end up playing the latest k0Ol whizzBang 'puter game. I try to go out and 
actually have a social life, but usually end up in some smoky dive 
listening to some horrendous bar band. Sometimes with a woman at the 
other end of the table, sometimes not. I all too often wear my heart on 
my sleeve, and am thus easy prey for the psychic vampires that stalk the 
dimly lit chambers, the ones I always seem to return to, offering up my 
neck, my heart, my life. Out of the last six women I had a "serious 
relationship" with, one currently denies it ever happened, two don't 
return my calls, two I don't return their calls, and one was murdered two 
months ago. Since the unifying factor in all of these relationships was 
that I was involved in them, I'm starting to get suspicious.
 
You: Intelligent, strong-minded, opinionated, witty, probably considered 
by most as fairly odd. Looks, age, race, creed - all unimportant. I 
*seriously* doubt that we will ever meet face-to-face. I currently live 
in Arkansas, and specialize in living in out-of-the-way places such as 
upstate Maine and northern Florida, attempting to outrun culture. I'm not 
looking for the "love of my life" through a computer terminal, and you 
aren't either... just connections, people united by a questioning drive, 
to survive life and perhaps even something more. Someone to talk to, to 
bounce hopes and fears off of. 
 
I'm not into virtual sex, in all its myriad forms. Sex to me is just an 
excuse to look into the eyes of another human being, and I'm 
depersonalized enough by reality as it is. So if you're looking for that, 
sorry.
 
But if all this angst-ridden navel-gazing actually appeals to you, feel 
free to drop me a line. I'll respond to all queries.

Oh, one more thing... as I said, I'm a presumptive writer, so be prepared 
to be bombarded with my "stuff", followed by plaintive solicitations of 
opinion.
