This is isn't the States, but interestlingly enough in Ontario the age of
consent is 14.  I don't know if this make it legal for anybody to "Shag"
this hypothetical 14 year, as a man over the age of 21 seducing a girl
under the age of 21 is illegal(*).  In fact you can be sued for damages
by the girls father.  There may very well be similar laws in New Zealand.

Well, you can give it a try and see if it works for you; on the whole,
though, it wouldn't be my first choice or something I'd recommend.

I don't know any couples who met in a bar, though I do know several who
met at parties I've given and I recently married a couple who met at a
science fiction convention.  I know several couples who met while playing
Dungeons and Dragons, at SCA events, or at renaissance festivals.  Even
calling local bulletin boards and posting on the net seems to be an 
effective way to meet a compatible mate.

Social activities you enjoy and social events with friends are likely
to be much more effective for starting relationships than bars. both
because you're more likely to meet people who share similar interests
and world-views and because people are more likely to be 'real' at 
such events.

Velcro isn't a weapon.  It can be used to subdue your "prisoner" after you've
managed to capture one with one of the above weapons though.  That's when
the lime jello changes from a weapon to a torture device..

Well Larry (Hays) doens't know I'm doing this, but what the hey.

In October, here in Albuquerque, is the Albuquerque International Balloon
Fiesta- a week+ festival of color and spectacle. Its the most photographed
event in the world, and lots of fun.

Since its in October, which is a nice gap away from the upcoming Boink With
No Name in NY, and its fairly close to the Left Coast, and its a really nifty
event, its was figured that a Boink would be appropriate.

This here post is for a couple of reasons
1) To announce that there are a few of us in Albuquerque who are looking to
drag our net friends from the local area, semi-far away people (like Texas
and Colorado and Arizona), further away people (mid-west and Left Coast), and
perhaps even really far away people too :) all together for a Boink
2) To try and drag more locals (Albuquerque area :) into this to help organize
things :)

Tenative plans would be the Obligitory Net Dinner and Party. And, of course,
since the whole thing is planned around the Balloon Fiesta, a big breakfast
get together and Balloon Fiesta invasion. There is lots to do in ALbuquerque
and area, such as visiting Santa Fe and the sites around there (a mere hour
drive), or the Sanda Peak Tramway.

If there is any interest, please mail me: blowfish@carina.unm.edu
and let me know if your interested in possibly coming to such an event or
if your local, if you can help out.

In my experience, people who put looks as a priority over other things
have it as a priority all the time, not just when you meet out on the
dance floor.  Such a guy wouldn't like the way you look dripping wet;
he'd insist that you be made-up all the time.

Also, not every guy who lives in LA wants a woman who LOOKS GOOD, at
least in the way you describe (wears high heels, makeup, etc., against
her will).  Of course, such guys are not likely to have many dates, as
they don't make themselves look good to attract such women.  On the
other hand, they can content themselves in the knowledge that they
don't have to change to suit other people's tastes.  I think it's
better to be uninvolved instead of having to maintain standards that
you find uncomfortable (which don't guarantee you'll find a partner
anyway), but your mileage may vary.

There were lots of peace demonstrators (and I include myself, and
speak from personal experience) who felt sorry for the soldiers, who
were victims.  We never attacked them personally, sent them hate mail,
etc.  Of course, the little boy knows exactly how things were; he was
almost born when they happened.

Why?  Maybe you're wrong because you read a dictionary that had the

No point, but if there had to be a point to everything, USENET would have

I'm posing a test of peoples morality.

If you could..........

People like Bill Wyman (a 13 year old !) did and got away with it, Jerry
Lee Lewis (though the age of consent/marriage does cloud the issue there),
there was a TV program about Catholic priest having sex with minors on
the other day (and the church covering up behind them to save their `good'
name), a story in the paper about a woman who 'interfered' with 2 young boys
aged 12 and 14.

On the contrary. I remember (at age 26 or so) developing a wicked crush on

These days (being older and wiser) I try to stick to guys who are no more

BTW, following this guideline, no one older than 17 could do a 14-year-old.
