Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So Denver is rated the best city for singles: [link]
The article is kinda' funny (at least to me), as the author interviews lots of people in Denver who complain about how hard it is to hook up.
“Best city for singles? You've got to be kidding me,” said John Quesenbury, 34, whom I met at a speed-dating event hosted by Cupid.com, a national personals Web site. “You're kidding me, right?”
How other cities rank:
1. Denver-Boulder
2. Boston
3. San Francisco
4. Raleigh-Durham
5. Washington-Baltimore
6. Atlanta
7. Los Angeles
8. New York
9. Chicago
10. Seattle

Our wings are not tired.
One big-ass bedroom would be only mine -- but other than that I'd share the monster lavishly. I'd have big dormortory atic rooms so I could keep cramming cousins in on weekends when freakin' everyone showed up. sighhhhh
That was the cool thing with the cabin I am buying in the Adirondacks. It had 10 single beds upstairs. That just amused me so.
Ok Tommyrot, EWWWWWWWWW eta: the icky vomit story, not the dating capital of Denver thing. Although I see no Florida cities listed.

Ann, that's a ferret.
How other cities rank:
Having lived in 2 of those cities (#4 and #5), I'd guess that "lots of young singles" is a big factor.

This is kinda' cool - video footage of the shuttle launch that was filmed from a WB-57 aircraft (link goes diretly to .wmv file): [link]
The WB-57 is a high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft - it can fly almost as high as a U-2 but can carry a much heavier payload.

What is even happening?
You people are being insufficiently entertaining. Entertain me, or I will be forced to recite a litany of my physical complaints, and really, even I'm bored with them, now.
Also...what day of the week is it? Honestly, I have no clue. Is it Tuesday? Or Wednesday? I think it's Tuesday, but I can't tell.
