That sounds a LOT like a > cheap shot. I suppose that could have been interpreted as a cheap shot. If you interpret it that way, then I have taken a cheap shot at myself as well. It is, however, my wish *not* to remain single forever. I think many people share this desire and plan to settle down at some point with someone they like. I can't imagine spending a lifetime going to bars for "one night stands". It's my opinion that you and I have very different views on this subject (since you do call yourself "the Bistro"), but isn't that the whole point of the this newsgroup? > We'd see quite a few less thoughtless cheap shot articles that > don't really have anything to say, either. (Like this one, perhaps?) Actually, I thought your article was *not* a cheap shot but rather your inter- pretation of my posting and since you construed it one way, others probably did too. Thanks for letting me know. It would be interesting to find out how many people out there *do* plan to stay single *forever* and their reasons for doing so... doncha' think?
