One reason, I suppose, it reminds me of Beckett’s, “The Unnameable.” An early literary revelation.
But mainly, “the niche with no name” is apt in its refusal to stereotype, label, categorize…the flirtysomething crowd. To do so would inevitably fall short in defining the […]

flirtysomething is about opening up dialogue. And that dialogue should include a variety of points-of-view, and will at times turn to political debate. But let’s debate in the Rogerian way, by listening to each other, and seeking to understand — before judging. And the best part is it’s okay to change your mind. [Hillary — […]
How crass have homo sapiens become? Read about a recent speed dating event featuring men with big wallets and women with big attributes of the gold digger kind. Decide for yourself. http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2007/02/natural-selection-1.php
I’ve never attended a speed dating event but suppose their popularity speaks for their utility. You get to test the chemistry with not one […]

Okay. There’s a lot of junk in the junkyard. A lot of Anna Nicole, Britney, Lindsay, Paris. Distraction. Noise. Songs without melody or lyrics. Movies without story. Blogs without end…
There’s also a lot of good stuff happening. Received a flyer in the mail yesterday for

Just for fun, check this out. Scroll to the bottom and click on the Daily Show clip. It’s hilarious.

Say you meet someone interesting in a situation that doesn’t allow you to conduct even the early stages of “discovery” — i.e. name, relationship status, sexual preference. The basics. But you’ve spotted him or her or you’ve spotted each other. The moment over. The crowd is dispersing. The two of you are about to be […]
