Oh, right, forgot to add: seeks non-smoking man, non-religious or very open-minded, 25-40ish, preferrably working in a professional field or a grad student, in the Midwest (I’m in Minneapolis), to participate in above-described activities.
You all must see the problem. It’s the SC part. 
In regards to furt’s post, I respectfully disagree with you, dropzone. He is presenting himself as he is. He’s making an honest presentation which shows intelligence, a wry sense of humor and a relaxed attitude. If that’s the way he is, then he wants someone who can accept that. (Sorry if I’m speaking out of turn, furt)
That’s a difficult combination to find, and if you happen to be a person like that, then the kind of person you’re looking for should be like-minded, otherwise you end up with someone who isn’t intelligent enough to be challenging or is too stiff to have your brand of fun with. I thought his post was great. I think it was the drilling bowling balls that really sent me over the edge, personally. Too bad, I’m too old and slightly still married, though I’m working on that part. 
(Yes, add me to the list of people who aren’t supposed to be in here.)
Hey…I can travel
Gloucester! My mom’s from there! Powell Street!
Cool…probably within a 10 minute walk of me then
Q.N. Jones! You’re perfect!
So, on behalf of Billdo, how you doin’?
Hey, before I put down a big deposit on a wedding dress, do you think maybe we should check with him first??? 
What the hell.
I’m a 28-year-old female, about 5’6" with reddish-brown hair and hazel eyes. I’ve been working as a legal writer/journalist for the past 19 months, which for me is much more enjoyable than actually practicing law because it lets me be creative. I’m an avid reader, as well as a cartoonaholic. I love movies, too – I’ll watch almost anything from the early Hollywood classics to sci-fi flicks. I’ll even watch a bad movie occasionally, as long as I can MiST it. I also enjoy a good intellectual discussion. I’m kind of quiet at first, but once I get to know you I’ll probably talk your ear off.
I’m not sure if I’m looking for a relationship right now, but I’d really like to meet new people.
See, I need someone to fill in pop culture reference gaps, too.
How you doin’, Doc Nickel?
Nah. Salem nailed it. I like to laugh, and I like to be honest. I have zero interest in anybody who would be shocked and appaled that I emit gas. Granted, it was a bit crude, but it made me smile to write it, so I figured it would make my intended audience smile. What the heck. When you get one turn at the plate, you don’t bunt.
I understand about putting your best foot forward, but I’m not interested in getting someone to “hire me” and then keeping me around because she doesn’t want to cough up severence pay. Here I am, warts and all (and it sure as hell ain’t like farting is my worst trait), like me or don’t. Like the man says: “God save me from any woman who would get turned on by the aftershave I use.”
Geez, furt, there seems to be a rash of people taking you too seriously, huh? 
Kids, one word for you DOPEFEST!
Let’s count a few of the SDMB weddings:
Shayna and that foreign guy (joke here, for the foreign guy)
Weird Dave and Ginger of the North
Mr. Cynical and myself
Uncle Bill and Geobabe
Anniz and Montfort (did I get the names right?)
Ms. Robyn and ** Airman Doors**
I think I have a perfect addition to the dating pool!
Well except for the incarceration part…
Susan Smith :eek:
:smack: D’oh!
Just checked my humor generator, and the settings were all wrong. I was aiming for “waggish,” but the damn thing was dialed all the way up to “sardonic.” Sorry folks. Move along. Nothing to see here.
um, so furt, how YOU doin?
oh and: shut up and pass the Doritos!
Eh, why not?
I’m twenty-three, I’m short, I’m sort of skinny, and as I’ve posted elsewhere, I have chick parts, not dude parts. Shortish (actually, come to think of it, I need a trim) light brown hair, blue eyes, purple glasses. I like cheese and cannot speak Esperanto. Currently I’m working at a consignment store (way to put my theater degree to use!) and occasionally making silly movies with my friends. If there’s anyone on here in the Northern Michigan area (and there go my chances of getting a date) interested in putting on a bunny suit and being chased around by someone dressed as Hunter S. Thompson while cameras are rolling, or maybe just in a nice cup of coffee, drop me a line! I don’t think I have my e-mail function turned off. Maybe I should check…
Oh come on, where’s your sense of adventure? I can’t believe you aren’t willing to run off and elope with me based on a few lines of doggrel penned by my sister.
So, fine, if you need me to do it before you buy the dress, get the blood test and line up the justice of the peace, I’ll say it my self.
So, Q.N., how you doin?
If you are a female non-smoker passing through the Thunder Bay area, and enjoy the great outdoors, drop me a line:

I trust all of these "How you doin?"s are being followed up with an email? Snap it up, kids. By procrastinating you are burning minutes in which you could be rapturously happy.
(Get the impression I have a personality somewhere between a yenta and a drill sergeant? )
