I'm jewish, both by birth and by culture. I don't believe there is a god, but I go to temple for high holidays, celebrate the holidays, etc.

Ok, not to nitpick, but your heritage is Jewish and you attend some Jewish functions but you can't really claim that your religion is Jewish. Unless we are using the "ish" that people do for time, "7ish" means sorta 7 but not really so I guess you could use jewish that way.

interesting, attractive, light-hearted. I think those would be the main qualities I'm shooting for.

I'll give yours some thought.

So Suneun, you would claim that you are Catholic even tho you dispute the existence of God? I'm really confused now. Unless you view the Church as a social club and that the bylaws are meaningless?

Punwit-
Please start another thread if you want to persue this. I don't want this to be a serious thread.

Sun-
I'll see what I can do. That description definetely rules out my roommate, who I'm trying to pawn off on someone *Grin* I know a couple other people who might fit the bill.

Paul,
Twenty years ago, I would have been your woman, dang it. Except for the Jewish-atheist part.(which I totally understand)
If you would like a retroactive date, I am there.

No, I dont play tennis. I never got into it [Smile] My parents tried to get me playing when I was younger though, it just didn't take...

Typically I take people out to dinner in the north end, and sit along the waterfront after dinner if its nice out... which it certainly is these days!

Mack,
I cannot MSN Message right now, due to the almost-being-on of American idol.

I went back a bit too far by going to 1980. i was 16, and that would get poor paul in trouble. So, paul, shoot forward to 1982, sophomore year in college. I had not met my husband yet, so I donl;t think it would be adultery, being retroactive and all.

Mack, I have mentioned before that I am the age of your mother. This both frigthens me, and makes me think: "Cool."

Paul - OKCupid has a large Boston contingent, some really fun quizzes, and some really crazy people (both developing the site and listed on it). I don't see myself ever going on an OKC-inspired date, but I know lots of people who do, and it's a fun diversion regardless. (To top it off, they just responded to my resume...)

I am outraged. This is HATRACK, NOT the equivalent of an online dating service. If you're all that lonely, put an ad in the classifieds and find some other desperate individual who needs your love [Roll Eyes] as much as you need theirs. I registered as a Hatracker because this was NOT an "I'm a 5'6 100lb blonde bimbo with really big jugs who just loves middle-aged balding beer-guzzling fat oafs (oaves?)". Hatrack is built upon intellectually-based conversation, not mindless horny drivel. [Hat]

Hmm. Hatrack isn't a dating service?

We'd better let all the hatrackers know. No more dating and/or marrying other jatraqueros.

Ever.

I am perfectly aware there are Hatrack couples. My point is that this ingenius idea of ad-posting is extremely shallow. If there's someone you respect and admire, then talk to them about it instead of posting your height and weight and appearance and "walking in the park/stargazing/picnicking on a moonlit beach" interests. You are not interested in a specific person, you want a quick and easy hook-up. [Kiss]

Don’t worry, Val. I happen to have an email from KACard in which she says, “Never thought of Hatrack as an elaborate dating service -- but hey, we aim to please.”

So I think we’re okay. [Wink]
