	I am a single caucasian male, 23, who is seeking one lady, two
ladies, hell I don;t care, LOTS of ladies between the ages of 14 and
40 that want some good, dirty fun. I am lonely and horny and well
endowed and I have super endurance. I am posting to these groups
because I am also stupid and don't read newsgroups before I post to
them but that's ok 'cause I am God's gift to women. Lady(ies) must be
hot and bothered and willing to worship me. 

	If you meet those qualifications you are probably too dumb to
type but that is ok just have a friend do it for you...I like my women
dumb and blonde.

I didn't have particular trouble finding French on T-shirts.  I have two,
from the same place in Grenoble---one is a quote from Nietsche:
"Without music, life is a mistake"
and the other is a picture and quote from Descartes:
"Those of great spirit are capable of the greatest evils or the greatest good".

Something like that anyway.

You can also get Tin Tin T-shirts, along with shirts featuring other
French cartoon characters (Asterix, Lucky Luke, etc).  Pretty expensive
stuff though.  I have a small model "Milou" (i.e. "Snowy") from Tin Tin.
French pop-culture is a lot more vibrant than those of other European
countries.

       It's amazing how much people bitch about an ad here in soc.singles

Are you still upset that I didn't throw you to the ground and passionately

Hi.  I'm not too young, not too old, with long blond hair.  Unless you
prefer dark brown hair, in which case it's dark brown.  Sometimes it's
short.  And red.  My eyes are sweet baby blue ... except when they're
deep, mysterious brown.  Or green.  Hazel.  Whatever.

I'm tall and svelte, with lots of curves.  Or maybe not so many curves. 
If you prefer short, I'm short.  

I like ballroom dancing and disco dancing.  I've been known to contra
dance and square dance.  I've been known to hate dancing altogether.  I
like to dress up in little black dresses and pearls, or dress down in jeans
and a sweatshirt.  I like to go out and party, or stay home and nuzzle by
the fire.  Or watch TV and eat popcorn.  Or mow the lawn.  Or go to poetry
readings.  Or heavy metal rock concerts.  I camp.  I fish.  I ride dirt
bikes.  Or ... I'm very domestic and love to cook and sew.  Unless that
puts you off.   

I like sports, if you do.  Whatever sports you like, I like.  Or, if you
are a couch potato, so am I.  

You are tall, dark, and handsome.  Although looks really don't count; I'm
too deep for that.  Send a photo, though.  I don't care what you earn, but
I hope you're really, really rich.  I saw "Pretty Woman" 12 times.  He
bought her a *lot* of stuff.  If you like Julia Roberts, I look just like
Julia Roberts.  

You are intelligent.  Well, you don't have to be intelligent.  Your
personality is warm, kind, funloving, eccentric ... maybe not eccentric. 
You don't have to be funloving or warm, either, if you don't want to be. 

You are male, and you have a pulse.

Hope to hear from you soon.

     Daniel probably computed the average of 2 hours a week.
I am sure that sometimes he has more or less than 2 hours a week of
free-time.  Don't you ever go through periods in your life where you
have more or less free time?

     Gosh, I wish that you could give Daniel and the other people that

what they say instead of calling them liars.

     Discounting others' experiences by calling them liars makes you
as credible as a convicted murderer on death row claiming that he/she
never committed the crime.

     By the way, since you have not picked up on the message, I tell
you again, "Singles can be happy being single."
