Why is it they never tell where they're at. They'd get alot more
replies if they'd just give area, if not city.

I mean, I don't have all of the sites memorized as to where they are!

Dear ladies,

I am a 28 year old SWM who is looking for that secret spot in the South Bay Area
(Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, etc..).  Where do all the single ladies go on Friday and
Saturday night?  I am interested in those places that don't come across as a meat-
market (that's just not my forte).  Any advice you can give me would be much
appreciated.

Thanks,

After sitting on the fence watching the NetWorld go by for a long time, I figure 
I'd throw my own ad into the ring and see what responses I get.

I'm a 21-year old college student (if you're clever, you can probably figure out 
which school) looking for an excuse to put off schoolwork.  In what little spare
time I have, I enjoy music (pretty much everything except country, classical, and
opera), sports, laughing, writing bad poetry, and challenging myself to go just a
little further than I did last time.  I've been in too many long distance
relationships to start another one now, but I'd love to talk with you about 
anything.  

If it matters, I'm about 6', 180, and I'm often referred to as "the 
guy with the eyes".  I enjoy long walks, sunsets, watching the rain, being silly, 
being serious, honesty, spontaneity, sharing old favorites, trying something new.
I'm a hopeful romantic and a hopeless cynic, a deadly combination where my mental
health is concerned.

I also like e-mail with a closing puzzle, quote, or joke, but it's certainly not 
required. 

Curious?  My address is written above.  Talk to me. (And for those of you who 
already know me, how'd I do?)

Looking to start up a conversation with a dangerously eclectic woman.
Meeting would be nice, too, but I can't see you if I think you are
entirely sane. Would be nice if you either love or hate some of these:

(In no particular order)(as if order is possible): Lao-Tsu, Esperanto,
John Irving, Milan Kundera, movies that make me uncomfortable, Jack
Kerouac, Atticus Finch, B.F. Skinner, Fuller, Isak Denison, Particle
Physics, Zen practice, Artficial Life, David Hume, Buck Henry, Bunuel,
Steve Martin, Elvis Costello, Whole Earth Review, Martin van Buren
(just testing), Paul Klee, T. S. Garp, The Newlywed Game, Tricycle, A.
M.  Holmes, Utne Reader, Harpers, skiing, Mark Leyner, home brewing,
Modern Primitives, bee keeping (still a dream), random acts, aphids,
aimless driving, MST3000, Miles Davis, Dali, aquaculture, cooking,
hydroponics (dead plants as proof), John Steinbeck, camping, nomadic
life, self-sufficiency, and any other fringe-type lifestyle.

Ability to work and play well with others not really an issue. Touch
typing a plus. Those with prior experience operating geological
surveying equipment or a lathe while writing the libretto to a new,
avant garde musical adaptation of _On the Origin of Species_ with
Darwin played by a heavily made-up Ted Danson will be given special
consideration.

I often lose both socks of a pair in the dryer. I once tried to
re-knit a pair from dryer lint, but forgot to make it hollow so I
ended up with a 7 inch long crooked scarf. 

We now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

Since I haven't seen my original posting in the newsgroup, I'll try again.

Hi there!

How hard is it to find a possible SO through the net?  Well, this is my
third posting! It says it all. However, I am sure there are a lot of female
lurkers, who are too afraid of being flooded by 100 or more replies if they
post. So, here is your chance.  I can assure you that, whatever you write,
you'll get a gentleman's answer.


I am a SWM looking for a special S/DWF.

Here are some of my details:  I am 40, never married, no "lose children"
left with former girlfriends, dark-haired, 5'4" tall (or short, take your
pick!), Ph.D. graduate in science. I am self-employed as a consultant,
since I value my intellectual freedom to much to give it up for good.  From
my native southern Europe I have travelled the world and lived in North
America for some years before arriving to Australia a few years ago.  I
like to keep fit through sport, so I am slim. I have a mature and strong
personality, aim for the top in anything I do, know where I am going in
life and what to expect from it. I am talkative and of good company on any
occasion (from a romantic dinner to a business luncheon). I like to joke
and be light-hearted as much as I can.  I have my own opinion about just
everything. I like music, travelling, romantic encouters, dining out,
taking holidays on forgotten islands and discussing any interesting matter
with intelligent people.

I am looking for a somebody (S/DWF) in her early 30s or younger, has her
own personality, be very attractive, not too tall (max. 5'7"), slim and
physically fit. You should have a straight personality like I have, happy
to enjoy life, have a good sense of humor, be sociable (never moody),
romantic and be tertiary educated.  I prefer somebody who is reasonably
secure, but, if you feel you are temporarily in a dead-end situation, maybe
I can help you to find your way out. 


If you believe we have something in common and are ready to explore how
much more there can be between us, press the return key and send me a short
message.  Distance is no objection to get started, but it's essential you
are a good writer and willing to correspond on a daily basis, if things
seem click. 


Rob

But why not try? :)
  My interests include tennis, skiing, etc.... 
I enjoy e-mail from anyone, anywhere....

Also, If anyone M of F of any type, age, etc in the Boston area reads this, I'd like a reply.. just to see ....

  Is it just me or is this peculiar?  Does this mean if no white guys respond
  then you'll consider an Asiatic or a Black or some other race?  There is 
  nothing wrong with expressing a desire for a white guy but it sounds sort
  of like like you're prejudiced but life in Waterloo is *so* bleak that as
  a last resort you'll consider a non-white guy and hide him from your friends.
  If you want a white guy then say so.  Equivalently, if you don't care then
  say so too but don't equivocate like this....
  *steps down from soapbox*  just had to say this..

Lessee now, how to start? PEZ. That's it, yeah.

I love PEZ and would be eternally grateful to swap PEZ stories
with anyone in the world who shares this peculiar fetish.

I worship the PEZ God every Saturday afternoon. Currently the PEZ God
lives in aisle nine of the Shopper's Drug Mart at Bank and Walkley Roads
here in beautiful Ottawa Canada.

I've got a Speedy Gonzales PEZ and a Bugs Bunny PEZ. The have cherry and
orange PEZ in them, respectively.

I'm going to get Sylvester PEZ this coming Saturday. I like Speedy best
right now, though. He has a nice yellow hat.

PEZ candy is great, they're like little sugar bombs when you crunch
them up. But don't worry, you don't have to crunch them if you don't
want. I like Lemon PEZ best.

Cheers,
   Zee Cyste

Hello.

	Who are you?  Why did you choose to read this post?

Do only desperate people post and reply on here?  Are you a

deep thinker, love maker, superficial friend or a straight

christian?  Do you believe that I could be none or all of 

those?  Do you also believe that people tend to be stand-

offish?

	Write and lets chat about love, life, and beliefs.
