I'm cruising Yahoo personals this morning and maybe 3 out of 52 strike me as someone I could maybe date...lol. Not one with a bike. One guy had 5 pics with various Hooters chicks - one is okay but 5? Another said he had a "few extra pounds"..."um dude....you are way LARGE!" But there was one where I actually read the whole thing and love what he had to say - here's his last paragraph:
"So, curious as to how many of you made it down this far? I know I like reading the profiles and yes I do send an icebreaker or e-mail to let you know if I think your profile was good, that doesn't mean I am interested in you, just that I liked your profile or whatever I complimented you on... Well I wish you all great success in your searches and maybe you just might find that mythical creature...=) BTW after reading some of your profiles you might want to spell/grammar check what you put out there, see another fault I guess…=)"
Like a balloon popping.....*sigh*

So now I'm checking out match.com. Some of the same profiles as yahoo. I'm already sick of seeing everyone's pets. What's up with that? That same dude has 12 pics - all either of just his pets or him with them but far away. He's not the only one.
I've never put up a pic of my cats. I just think it's weird. One photo maybe but more than that? Maybe I'm being too picky already......lol.
KitB-
I have to admit, I'm a big stickler for the grammar thing, too... although putting it right up front in your profile is kinda harsh.
One day, after far too many "U R 2 KEWT" replies, and one that indicated that the guy liked "spontinuity" in a woman, I fired off a reply correcting all his grammar errors (there were quite a few). I still feel bad about doing that, but it also felt kind of great to blast his poor grasp of the language...
Not sure where you are in the country, but there are TONS of bikers here in Northeast Ohio. Shocking considering that it is snowing today and we probably won't see Spring until June!
Any of the guys with the pets show any sheep? Steer clear!!
