If you are going to be condescending, "my dear," you could at least get the
syntax correct.  How about "On newsgroups like this one, I have found a few
women who can appreciate my personality along with my real side WHICH no one
reading this has seen?"  There.  Much better fast or slow, like your remark
about plugging holes with strangled bodies (the them in "stuff them back up"
had no clear antecedent).  What are they teaching you at OSU, anyhow?
And I thought some of the students here needed work on writing skills...

Hi, I'm a graduate student in the Denver, CO area and, just like the 
header says, I'm looking to meet someone with similar interests. I like a lot 
of so-called alternatice music ranging from Foetus, Sonic Youth, Ministry, etc 
on the harder side through Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds to Leonard Cohen with 
lots of bands inbetween. I enjoy reading. Bukowski, Camus, Celine, Kundera 
and Vonnegut being a sample of my favorites. And yes, being a postpunk type 
if I have to label myself, I'm sometimes in the mood for Clive Barker too. 
I also enjoy art - whatever that means "to enjoy art"?? Bacon and Bosch 
immediately come to mind and are followed by a slue of others. While all this 
sounds kinda serious, I do like to have a good time also. I enjoy going to 
concerts, dancing and shooting pool. I even do things during the day like 
wander around in Denver exploring and just hanging out talking with friends. 
When I'm just sitting around the house and my roommate and I are talked out 
there's always The Simpsons, Ren and Stimpy, Rocky and Bullwinkle and Lynda 
Barry. 
Hopefully these interests will give you some sort of an idea of who I am 
and the type of person I'm looking for. 
Well, maybe you're thinking gee, he sounds great (if you haven't pressed 'n' 
already) he must be ugly as sin then if he's doing this. I've never been 
told that that was the case; I usually told, when people say those sort of 
things, that I'm good-looking. I'm about 5'10", 175 lbs, black hair, hazel 
eyes. 
This is getting a little long so if you're interested send me some mail. You 
needn't be in the Denver area, although that would be nice: we can always 
get to know each other by e-mail and be friends if you're not local.

     Good day ladies. I'm someone who looks first into a woman's heart
before scrutinizing her figure.  When I get to know a girl I am very willing
to share all my feelings and emotions with her, and to listen to her 
thoughts/desires/ambitions.  I've been complimented as a good listener and
faithful friend.
	Yet for some reason I have had little luck getting beyond the "just
friends" stage of relationships.  If any ladies in the Virginia region 
think they could get serious with a guy whom other women have found to be a 
good friend, drop a note in my mailbox at dms4s@virginia.edu. Looking forward
to hearing from you!

The news group title says, "alt.personals", but after
reading some of the posts, I wondered if it should be
alt.personals.soap_opera.  Anyway, if there are any 
interested parties, I'm doing boring research on the 
design of a toothpaste dispenser and I'm trying to get
some consumer opinions:

1.	What brand of toothpaste do you currently use?
2.	What do you like about the dispenser?
3.	What do you dislike?
4.	Do you like the way that it looks (geometry, height,
	diameter, aesthetics)?
5.	Do you like the way that it feels (gripability, texture)?
6.	Do you like the operation of the tube or pump (is it 
	messy, is it easy to use)?
7.	Have you considered its environmental significance
	(recyclability, packaging waste)?

And does anyone ever notice how men are much more free to say what
they really think of a woman if the outcome may not decide whether or
not they get laid? Hmmm...Anyhow, of course he has rights to express
his opinions...no one ever contested that fact, as far as i know, i
think what those of us who defended Rai, even though she is quite
capable of defending her own indubitable self, were thinking more
along the lines of his deliberate insulting, flame-baiting tone of
expression of opinion...not to mention the fact it was neither
entertaining nor did it show much of a thought pattern besides
something resembling "god i hope the lab instructor doesn't come check
my work with this woody i'm sportin'". If he only knew that no one
cares what his opinion of Rai is and that he has proven that he is
insecure enough about his own appearance that he puts down others for
not conforming to his standards, which is just plain fuckery, to be
crude, exquise the language most estimable colleagues;)

'Heinz 57' is a cross-breed, a combination of a whole bunch of things.
It's usually used in reference to dogs---though, I'm sure the woman
in question wasn't trying to imply that ... well, you know...  :-)

(No doubt the phrase did come from the steak sauce, but don't ask me
how or why!)

Assuming these are independent events, there is a 1 in 14 chance we
have fantasies about one another. Is that good or bad?

No, not really. After all, how long have people of color been allowed
to be in the military? Quite a while, and race relations still suck
month old eggs through a garden hose. Camaraderie doesn't mean you
have to kiss everyone else or even like everyone else, it just means
you have to work with them.

Oh, get real. "Allow gays in the military"? Hell, they are there already
and everyone knows it. All that allowing homosexuals in the military would
do is legitimize what's already going on. You've probably lived with
more homosexuals than you have any idea about.

First, the important stuff. I am a SWM college grad
with plans to move to the Colo. Springs area of
Colorado. I enjoy horseback riding, hiking, camping,
and other outdoor activities. My interests are wide
and varied, but include Fantasy/SF books, Star Trek,
D&D, Shotokan Karate, Classical Music, SCA (although
I am not an official member...yet  :) ), ferrets, and
much more. I am willing to try just about anything 
once before deciding whether I like it.

I am a Pagan by choice, but I maintain an open mind
about other people's chosen religions. I have a
very punny sense of humor. <Grin> I believe very firmly
in honesty. I also believe in emotional maturity; head
games just piss me off. However, don't think of me as a
stuffed shirt. I am very fun-loving.

Now the more superficial stuff. I am 5 foot 6, 120 lbs,
brown hair and eyes, 23 years old. I am an occasional
drinker and non-smoker, although I don't mind others
smoking around me if they aren't blowing smoke in my face.
I am fairly attractive (at least, that's what I've been
told. I try to avoid judging my own appearance.) I try
to stay reasonably healthy. I am very turned off by
SM and domination games but am rather experimental
other than that.

As far as what I am looking for, I would like to meet
a S*F within driving distance of CoSpgs for a close
friendship and, hopefully, LTR. I am hoping to meet
someone with a sense of adventure and romance. Looks
aren't all that important, although height and weight should
be proportional (i.e. healthy). Must have interests we can
share. Openmindedness in all areas is a very definite plus.

If I have held your interest this long, drop me a line and
we'll see what happens. :)
