Dear Lad,
° Have you ever tried to write a personal ad? One, I mean, without antlers?
° I’ve been trying off and on ever since Madonna was Desperately Sought as Susan. But I have failed so consistently, I almost begin to doubt my method. For though I can list several thousand things I like, I can’t successfully boil them down into an attractive appetizer.
° Blogger profiles seemed a breakthrough. Giac’s personal ad:

° But if I’m like the shoemaker’s children, I’m still a shoemaker.
° And Leggero’s personal (la sua foto, coi capelli matti, si vede oltre) is simple as pie:

° Nessuno, sembra, vuole vivere contento.
° Beato, Benedetto nonostante, Giac.
