That’s two. One more and it’s a quorum.

It is.
Indeed it is. It’ll be along in a day or two - watch for the link in my signature (which will update from its present obsolete one about the pirates game).

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve met someone who was gorgeous, and then as I got to know them, and saw their actions, they became unbeautiful, and I wanted nothing more to do with them. (There was this boss at work…)
I’m looking for the beautiful.

I agree with this whole lovely post. And yet. And yet. Not everyone achieves this mindset, you know.
Okay, off you go, sign up, complain about the facilities, use the approprate place to ask for stuff, let me know about any cool graphics you have that would improve the place no end, etc, etc. (I just reviewed how much free time I have in the next few evenings - very little - and quickly fired something up.)

Thanks, you’re a peach. Or some other, more masculine fruit, but not a banana, because that’s totally played.
Why am I now hungry?

Thanks. I signed up, mainly because it’s you, but I promise I’ll keep quiet as I am not in the market. If anyone thinks I should thus stay off that board, I will.

Well, if you’re not there, whom will I flirt with?

Heh, Ok…I’ll reserve flirting only to people who ask me directly though.
Looks like I’m the first to become a member.
No, that doesn’t come off as desperate.

Only because you beat me to it. 
winks at everyone in the thread
Back when I was dating (I’m married now) I noticed this.
Basically if the woman you had a first date with pressed you for confirmation that you liked her and would call her and would there be another date…the chance of a second date were slim.
I know, it’s confusing but I dated enough to notice it.
I think it has to do with them really not being into you but wanting to know that you really wanted them. An ego thing or something.
I don’t know…but it was there.

You may be onto something.
Not too long ago, at the end of a nice evening with a nice guy, the nice guy took out his cell phone.
“Are you going to give me your number?” he asked.
I coughed it up; he typed it in.
“Do you want me to use it?”
“Sure,” I said.
It took about a week for me to realize he wasn’t going to call. To be fair, he never said he was going to call, he just asked if I wanted him to.
(Yes, I realize I should have gotten his number. Had my phone battery not died, I would have asked for it.)
(Yes I realize I should always carry a pen in my purse so that I don’t always need to save numbers directly to phones with short-lived batteries.)
