intellidating

what a goofy title for something quite fascinating.

i think that with an era of the internet and things like 'speed dating' which is quite popular here in ill-dot something that is popping up in ny (as an import from Britain i might add) might be making it's way up here soon.

intellidating is essentially making things like debates, museums, lecture series and the like more 'sexy' and more of a way for people who hate paris hilton, don't know or care what the latest 'it thing' is and have mixed feelings about the nebulous world of 'internet dating'.

personally, i would be all for this idea. it's time that those of us with more than a few brain cells find better ways to meet than soaking them in liquid poisons and call that 'socializing'.

i said i would be all for the idea except that i am happily off the market for good. soon and very soon (as the old hymn goes) i'm getting married and am quite glad that in the very near future i'm going to take vows to spend the rest of my life with the woman i love and can't live without.

so, for the rest of you - best of luck and if you can write complex sentences with sub clauses and find a book more interesting than doing shooters at your local pub - you might want to see if you can put something like that together here in ill-dot. those of us who have already found our special someones will wish you the best from the sidelines.
