Just try and stop me. I might just be there when you first arrive! Can’t wait! Maybe we’ll get Beal and Jon Wood too, really McClellan the place up.

Yes the rumors are true! It’s no Chicago but it’s damn near an arms through when compared to Japan!

I can’t believe you are 170 pages into your SECOND book! When on goss earth do I get to read the first one?

Oh and were having a Texas-McClellan reunion in Spokane this summer so get ready…

Oh, this is why I started and stopped online searching for love in the same week, years ago. I can’t think of anybody who comes out looking good based on a random list of characteristics that have anything to do with being human, and it’s too tempting to dismiss strangers based on foibles we’re willing to overlook in people we already know and love. If you’re able to look past them up front, more power to you.

TV seems pretty non-negotiable, though.

if you read a lot and watch a lot of TV, then you need someone who likes the same. The chubby guy looking for a healthy girl probably needs someone to mommy him to death in order to get in shape. As for the young divrocee, I’m going to defend that one (mainly because I too made a lapse in judgment in my very early 20s): sometimes, people get married too young. The only thing it says about them is that they are more romantic than they are practical, and I bet that bodes well. After all, what long term relationship couldn’t use a bit more romance? Plus it means they got their start marriage out of the way!

1) No TV is a lie. He is just trying to sound more interesting. My silly little husband tells everyone he never watches TV which is sort of true except he forgets that he donates 1/3 of all his free time to his XBox… I tell everyone I don’t watch TV which is sort of true except I spend all my free time watching TV on DVD ha ha!
2) You are right to turn away a sonnet singing guitar toting guy period
3) You can’t date the guy who can’t write because you are a writer — it just doesnt mix
4) Skip the chubby guy – if you aren’t attracted to him in the beginning you will NEVER be attracted to him — I learned that the hard way by sticking with it for five years before finally giving that up.
5) Young divorced guy – I think that only matters if he has kids — which also only matters if its an issue for you.

All excellent points. Especially the last one. I think I made three different TV-related references in this post ALONE. Clearly that last one is, in fact, a dealbreaker.

Keep in mind that even if a guy IS a legitimate good guy with the right stats, it’s going to be hard to find one who can *communicate* that via a profile or email banter. You’re just being set up to screen out guys in the online dating world. So don’t be too hard on yourself or poor guys who have no idea how to flirt in person, forget about online. And I always think about how my 5′ 6″ fiance would never have gotten through my height screener on Match.com hehe.

but DO RUN AWAY from any guitar-toting dude who has a sonnet in his pocket! And No TV is just ridiculous… there’s “opposites attract” and then there’s “this guy will absolutely not understand any of my jokes”

Comment on Whimsy, You Sly Devil You by Rose

Does anyone remember a book that must be at least 10 years old. I think it was a hard-back and I have no idea what it was called. It had the most beautiful pictures in it of painted unicorns with flowers in their manes and I think that it might have had holes cut-out of some of the pages so you could see part of the next page. I remember my parents and grandmother reading it to me when I was little. I do not think that it was necessarily a story because I remember ” A horse a horse, my kingdom for a horse” being quoted in it, so maybe it was a collection of very short poems or other equine quotes. If anyone can help I would be forever grateful.

Many thanks.
