Fine.

Fuck it.

Since no one said me, I’ll just date myself. I get more action out of myself than anyone else anyway.

Either that or Mark Serlin. Depends on which of us wears better cologne. (Although I’m not terribly partial to Jovan…)

Melin,

Yes, I’d heard that, but I had thought that it was merely an urban legend… 😉

Wow, I’m really excited because this is the very first “name a poster…” thread that I’ve ever been named in…and I have several votes! I’m sorry though, I have to admit I’m holding out for that dreamy Mark Serlin – hubba hubba! (::fluffs hair and touches up makeup:🙂

Krispy-connie honey, he only ranks higher, well, because you are married!  
(email me sometime…'kay?)

I was honestly coming back here to add a couple of names:  
If I ever date a chick,I want my first one to be… **BYZANTINE**!

and i was just at angies, and she was on chat, where someone mentioned John Corrado’s post : oh Christ COLUMBUS?  
I thought that was pretty sharp, I told angie that I thought he has a very keen understated sense of humor.

**John Corrado, definitely on my list.**

And in keeping with my dysfunctional past, Pitbulldog and mark Serlin…(kidding!!!)

Look, over in the corner. The quite, shy guy with the mediocre looks and the great sense of humour. He’s all alone. (And he spells humour with a “U”, must be Canadian.)

Oh, yeah, that’s drollman…and he’s just happy he was invited.

All this flirting and romance is fine, I guess, but I’m a practical kind of person. I want to date Phaedrus, so I could place him in restraints long enough to notify the nearest sanitarium.
