    Do you have this person's bio? Just his age, educational level and current job, so that we can compare it against his writing. Sounds like I'm asking for the unnecessary, but I suppose I want to be fair to the person.

    How long have you been using online dating sites? I know that there have been success stories, but seriously, what do you think of your chances of finding someone suitable through such sites?

    While I do like the world wide web and its conveniences very much, I still have my doubts about online dating sites.

    Honestly, I've always thought Online dating sites are some form of bait to sabotage/victimized computer systems of non-suspecting users. And those people are just bots whose pictures are stolen from accounts of Myspace or Friendster.

    I meet people through friends of friends. We usually meet up in big groups, and Ice Breaker games are certainly a good way to tear down the cold wall. Games, talks and laughters. Soon enough you don't feel like strangers anymore. The strangest thing is... whomever gives you that "butterfly in the stomach" feeling, could be the one whom you knew for long and didn't take them seriously back then.

    I'd say when there is a large pool of what you're looking for in your real life location, it's probably preferable to online. For small niche segments, such as if you're only looking for a specific minority race or orientation, and you don't have a large supply in your location, then online sites can be as good as, or even better than, real life location.

    I prefer spontaneous, real life meeting, if possible.

    While I do like the world wide web and its conveniences very much, I still have my doubts about online dating sites.
    Safety has never been an issue in my online dating experience. The overall chance of finding prospect is low. The quality of the person you meet sometimes is not accurate to their description, but you have that problem a lot in real life too (ppl project false impressions upfront).

    Can anyone tell me, what is the meaning of "旂", "銨" respectively? How do you pronounce them, BTW? The two characters belong to a name of a person.

    旂 - qí (2nd tone - flag, also a flag with bells in olden days)
    銨 - ǎn (3rd tone - ammonium)

    It's quite awkward to pronounce.

    You're such a big VW fan haha. These are gorgeous though! Was it very expensive? And I wonder about the comfort level...

    If I was rich, I'd just give most of my money to her, seriously.

    The shoes were only around $210. I read reviews that they are pretty comfortable and last long.

    Some people and ideas just deserve to be hated.

    And yet, for some reason, they are loved.

    so sick of the royal wedding covered all the media. Common they are just normal people and i would say that these so called royalties are a bunch of people living on the expense of the taxpayers

    Yeah, I'm sick of the Royal wedding news too. I've been hearing so much of it the past few months, I thought they had already been married.

    just had such a busy and long work week, ready for some relaxing and fun weekend preferably with some shop therapy and sleeping in Saturday. Catch up on some reading and stuff.

    Yay, I'll be getting a new mattress soon enough.
