"Down-to-earth mom open to romance and dating possibilities"

Huh?

Isn't that what online dating is for?

Have you ever heard of this one:


'Man With Farm Seeks Woman With Tractor'


It's an actual headline...and the title of a book about the best and worst personal dating ads of all time.

Ohmygosh, Tracy, that is HILARIOUS! I'm sitting here with tears running down my face and my stomach hurts, I was laughing so hard! The "how to" pictures alone are worth a visit to that site, especially the one with the ex's face cut out and the one where she's posing with the GUN!!!

I'm still laughing...thanks, I needed that!

I'm glad you enjoyed it; it's my totally guilty pleasure.

I especially like the PP of the Month -- this month's BITTER ZEALOT is a real keeper!

I'm just bummed WE didn't all think to put this together-- we've certainly got the material!!

Have a great day -

Tracy

Brilliant. I love it. I can't believe that no one here thought of putting together a site like this. We could have done a fantastic job.

I don't pass on lame/boring ones, because I know how hard it is to come up with one. But I do pass on the ones with sexual innuendo.
