Literally, at the wedding I was at last weekend, there were two single guys there.
I know! Weddings used to be such a great place to hook up meet people! What happened. Last wedding I attended, there was one single guy. And he was a hot tub salesman from Canada. Nice guy, but no.
ION, is anyone watching The Closer on TNT? What do you think?

I've wanted to watch, but it's on past my bedtime. Is it worth taping?

Har. That's like the setup to a bad joke right there.

Twentysomethings being dubbed `Entitlement Generation' for their lofty job expectations
Evan Wayne thought he was prepared for anything during a recent interview for a job in radio sales.
Then the interviewer hit the 24-year-old Chicagoan with this: "So, we call you guys the `Entitlement Generation,'" the Baby Boomer executive said, expressing an oft-heard view of today's young workforce. "You think you're entitled to everything."
Such labeling is, perhaps, a rite of passage for every crop of twentysomethings. In their day, Baby Boomers were rabble-rousing hippies, while Gen Xers were apathetic slackers.
Now, deserved or not, this generation is being pegged, too--as one with shockingly high expectations for salary, job flexibility and duties but little willingness to take on grunt work or remain loyal to a company.
Man, I wish my friends would set me up on blind dates. I've got nothing!!
Dude, I'm sorry. I could set you up over here, and there were in fact a handful of single guys at the Zmayhem wedding (which you foolishly ditched for some
family
thing. What. Ev.), but the only truly stellar guy I know anywhere in the tri-state area is getting married in August.

What is the tri-state area for SF?
I don't know which ones exactly, but I'd assume they're states of mind and not political entities.

I'm thinking she meant my tri-state area.
Thanks, JZ!

You can't blame us, though -- we went to high-school/college during the Clinton years. There was supposed to be a booming economy full of high-paying internet jobs waiting for us when we got out! Our expectations seemed reasonable at the time!
