It's brutally cold here in Ohio. Like, miserably cold. So I was just hanging out with some old records, you know, catching up and stuff when I got stuck on the Old 97's 'Fight Songs' album...hard to believe it's been 10yrs since its release.
So much truth in these songs, and especially in THIS song. No, nineteen is DEFINITELY not the age of reason.

I am looking for a woman to meet who, like me, is cautious, a little shy at first, and leery about meeting people. I’m a 48 year-old educated, professional divorced white male. People tell me I’m youthful, very cute with a great smile, height-weight appropriate, kind and gentle, fun-loving and playful. I love to laugh even at myself. I’m less than enamored with dating sites. At an agreed upon time, I will be browsing a pre-determined section at a Polaris area book store. Having a full and complete description of me, you will be able to see me but I won’t know who you are. If you like what you see, you might approach me saying something like…”technical books are a bit boring aren’t they? Want to talk about it over coffee?” If you don’t like what you see, then no harm done and you will be completely anonymous. I thought this might be a safe way to meet and give you the opportunity to opt out anonymously. If you’re interested in talking more about this or have questions, I’d love to hear from you. Thank you! ******
This guy TOTALLY underestimates the cruelty of not only the general public, but especially the Craigslist using segment of the population. I hope he brings a change of clothes...he will be browsing that section of books for a long, LONG time.

Now this is a perfect missed connection. If you could major in missed connections at college, this would have it's own lecture. It's got everything. Broken English, it's absurdly vague, plus it has that overall tone of general creepiness that would assuredly scared off any intended reader from actually replying.
