"Single in the Suburbs"

This is a serial that’s been running at Match for the last year or so – new episodes every couple weeks of the adventures of this neurotic shiksa in the 'burbs. Not particularly edifying, but I check in semi-regularly and read the latest episode or two.

Just went to the site, and there’s no sign of it. Googled the site and got the matches, but the links all said “this article is no longer available.”

Anyone else share this guilty pleasure? If so, do you know what happened?

With some Googling (out of sheer curiosity), I found that links for episodes up through the 40s were available on MSN, and the latest installment is here. Dunno why this is weird, maybe they screwed up when they reorganized their site?

How’d you find a workable link? Every one I found took me to an error message – or to a site where fellow addicts were bitching about the disappearing blog.

Thanks!

I happened to find a blog with bitching addicts where one had dug up a link somehow. :slight_smile:

What’s a “shiksa”?

It’s Yiddish, means a non-Jewish woman. IIRC it can be used in a pejorative fashion depending on context.

I’m not Jewish, and I’m not sure why I called her that. Couldn’t come up with anything better, though.

It's pejorative to the extent it defines "other" or "not us".
