Do you have any idea why? Or is that a too-nosy question (and sorry if it is)?

I think it's because I'm old, and they are. Sort of a (and as a single person myself, this is very flawed) if they're this old and single, what's wrong with them?

Makes no sense. What'll happen, will happen, as long as I don't sabotage stuff.

You know what's sad? That I had to explain to several friends (around my age) that it doesn't mean that there's anything that is wrong with them. But they definitely think that about themselves - if they're this old, and still single, they must be flawed.

Yup.

Grokster decision's in. Grokster lost.

Whuzza?

(That "whuzzah?" was meant to convey "I have no idea what those 2 sentences even MEAN.")

Hee. I don't think that about me (most of the time, anyway). I mean, I am flawed, but so is everyone else. But for me, if I see a guy I think is interesting, I figure my timing sucks so bad that someone else found him interesting first, and has staked a claim.

Oh, gotcha.

One of my roommates seems to think that she won't deserve to find a SO unless she finishes fixing all her flaws. She has to become perfect in order for anyone to be interested in her enough.

I guess there's a place that whines, in me: "in what am I less than everybody else, that they got what they wanted and I didn't?". Not "what is so flawed in me that nobody wants me?" sort of whine, though. Closer to "what am I doing wrong? Am I doing something wrong?". And then I keep reminding myself that it's not up to just me. And then it's back to timing and luck and that's out of my hands.

Grokster, a file-sharing service, had a case before the Supreme Court, about whether or not they could be sued for providing the means for people to illegally share stuff. They can, say the Supremes.

Thanks, flea!

We talked here about the kid in Tennessee whose parents sent him to a "rehab" program for curing homosexuality after he came out to them, right?

Tennessee officials, including Child Services, are investigating the program: [link] And, relatedly (sorta), the gay penguins who raised a chick together now have a book about them: [link]

If she gets all perfect, she'll take herself completely out of the dating pool. Who could live up to, or with perfection?

It is. And, you are a very busy woman, right now. I can't imagine handling your workload as it is, never mind with a serious boyfriend or husband in the picture.

How about a casual boyfriend, one who's lots of fun, and always there when you call but not pining when you don't?

They do make those, right?
