I agree Astro, I dug deeper, Evo, click http://www.sciconnect.com/photos.shtml" and from the men's photos, from sheer looks alone, see if any of these guys suit you (or if none, say nada).

Rhody... matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match, catch me a catch... :redface: :smile:

P.S. Just to check them out, I clicked on the join link, it says these people are actively seeking others, so be careful what you wish for, lol. 65$ for a year and 30$ for three months.

Unfortunately to look at what's available at the SciConnect site, I'd have to join up. So far the examples just don't do it for me. Although these people are definitely of higher overall quality and more open minded than at other sites.

Keep this in mind, though: there are probably legions of geeks who meet your criteria, but only lurk on that site, hoping to find their EvoGoddess. If you join, you might pique the interest of one of them :wink:.

Thank you for the links! I was about to sign up when I started having pain in my hips, especially if I walk or bend forward. I'm not much good at working on a outdoors project, which is what I wanted.

Ok. Your health comes first!:smile: I hope you have seen your doctor. Sounds serious. As far as you looking for a mate on the Internet, I have my reservations. Two of my friends did that and ended up putting the guy on DON'T DATE HIM GIRL! (lol!) I can't stop laughing... Best wishes on your jouney. Hope you fair well.

Where are the easy going, intelligent men that don't look like neanderthals standing next to corvettes?

If they were easy going, intelligent, and didn't look like neanderthals, they wouldn't need to stand next to a Corvette. The Corvette is just to divert attention.

It's tough to find a date when

so much depends
upon

a red wheel
barrow

glazed with rain
water

beside the white
chickens.

I'd go out with you... :smile:

Except that I don't fit your criteria, just like almost 7 billion other people! :wink:

You're kind of picky, aren't you! :biggrin:

Evo, you seem like an interesting person. I'd go out with you too...:smile:

(Before anybody becomes too disturbed, I'm just kidding. I think I'm as far from fitting Evo's criteria as anybody can possibly be.)

I'd probably go out with Evo, too (arm's length relationship to start) if I were not happily married. Unfortunately, the Supreme Lard looks to be a high-maintenance partner, so it would not work at all for me.

I could fall for our new neighbor, though. She spent all afternoon yesterday grubbing the garden-site that I tilled for them and she had dirt all over her. When she'd gotten the sod and roots out, I ran the tractor back up there and tilled that spot two more times, so she'd have nice soft, aerated soil to hoe up and plant their peppers, tomatoes, etc.

Man, that is just burgeoning with euphamistic imagery.

Dave,

You dared to go (and then post about) what I was thinking as well. I am glad it wasn't just me who took Turbo's comments that way.

Rhody... :rolleyes:

... I've been on this forum for 8 years and only a couple of men have approached me. :frown:

It's because you're just.that.pretty. and guys are afraid of you. I'm not... but alas, the poem and invitation to be my long distance Valentine I sent five or so years ago didn't quite cut the mustard. Thank you for letting me down easy.

I've had instances where eharmony took it upon themselves to loosen my standards for me after I insisted that being fit and within 50 miles were non-negotiable in a potential match.

Stay away from plentyoffish. I received mean natured replies after I had enough of the dregs and changed my opening paragraph to read in part "...if you talk with your mouth full, have ever been called brassy or sassy... click the back button now. I'm not your guy." In an attempt to add a little levity I went back and added, "...you will be worshipped if you can do any of the following... be sweet, calculate the volume of an irregular solid using the slice method... find a Messier Object... build and or use your own home made telescope (or fake it really good)... tie a passable Clouser or Wooly Booger, divide by zero." There were a few more but I've forgotten them. Also, I don't drink but apparently everyone in my dating pool does and its annoying. Getting drunk and being the LOUD center of attention on a meet and greet just doesn't cut it for me.

Evo, you're more than welcome to move back to Texas. Austin will wecome you with open arms.

I was rooting for you, Echo. You were my favorite.

Almost as many as those that claim to be "very attractive". I'm sure they might be attractive to some life form, but it's not human.
