Be proud of him always for any invention he comes up with...
his brain is working and he's creative, could be worse, could
be out drinking and druggin and not have any brain cells left to
invent anything.

So I get a random, out-of-the-blue, unsolicited IM this morning from a woman in Ghana.

OK, this is always a bad sign. Ghana is a red flag on the best of days; a skull & crossbones the rest of the time.

And she starts in with how much she likes my "kind of person" and how we should start a relationship.

And I respond with "You're much too far away for me."

And she asks 149 questions about LDRs and why I don't want to have anything to do with them.

It's not rocket surgery, people.

And I ran out of ways to explain that I'm really not interested in someone unless I can be around them, in person, on some sort of regular basis.

Which she, apparently, cannot assimilate.

Then she made the cardinal sin (I always wondered about that term -- what kind of sins can red birds do?) of asking questions which are clearly addressed in my profile. Ghana + not reading profile + being persistent about not listening to my answers = scammer, probably. I'm pretty good at that sort of math.

Then she started talking about marriage. Another thing I want nothing to do with.

They just don't get it.

you know that deep reddish brown that a real peach has on it, might just be the thing to off set it.

Hi, although I am married, I am looking for a fun date......

Hi everyone! I'm new to this site too. I'm hoping to find someone to laugh with and enjoy some time with. Wish me luck!

Hey gang!! I'm a single mom new to the site. My bestfriend met his gf here and they now have a baby so thought what the heck I will try.

who cannot be bought nor sold;
whose word is their bond;
who put character above wealth;
who possess opinions and a will;
who are larger than their vocations;
who do not hesitate to take chances.

who will not lose their individuality in a crowd;
who will be as honest in small things as in great things;
who will make no compromise with wrong.

who will not say they do it "because everybody else does it."
who are true to their friends in adversity as well as in prosperity.
who do not believe that shrewdness, cunning and hard-headedness are the best qualities for winning success;
who are not ashamed or afraid to stand for the truth when it is unpopular;
who can say "NO" with emphasis, even when all of the world says "YES."



If a man like this exists I would like to shake his hand, if more that one exits I would like to give them all a little kiss.

We are imperfect beings and often fall short of the mark but if we all, male and female strive to meet these ideals the world would be a kinder place.



whose ambitions are not confined to their own selfish desires;
who can stand and will stand on their feet whenever they fall.

who can never spell pride amid mountains of honors

AND MOST OF ALL...
men who will always stand for the right though the heavens fall

Oh God! CAN I PLEASE ANSWER THIS??????
