But if they're not active, what's the point?

Driving around town, a certain dating web site was running ads for their service. I won't name the dating site, but it rhymes with Lupid.com.

Their tag line was something like--sometime love needs a little help. And that the site had lots of singles out there just like me who were looking for that special someone.

So, I decided that since I haven't had a date in a while and I felt like some kind of intervention of this kind was needed, I'd check the site out.

Logged on, looked around and found...well, that within a good radius of my current location there are quite a large number of single women...none of whom who have been active or on-line in months. I could see if it'd been a day or two or up to a week, but it seems the lowest number I found was something like three weeks.

Needless to say, I didn't plunk down my credit card number to sign up. Call me picky, but I'd like to actually find a woman within 100 miles of my current location.

And maybe that's why I'm single...I'm so darn picky.
