Craig and his wonderful list

craigslist chicken coop taj mahalThe good thing about Craigslist: It's a window into our fellow community members' wants, needs and aspirations. The bad thing about Craigslist: It's a window into our fellow community members' wants, needs and aspirations.


Good or bad, we'll let you decide...

IN NEED OF A DATE FOR AN EVENT? MR. DATE WOULD LIKE TO CAPITALIZE ON THE SITUATION.

Probably the first time we've ever seen latitude and longitude used in a missed connection.

The guy who stocks shelves is on her grocery list.

For him, a dinner would be "more of a social experiment."

Caution: the person handing you this beverage is hot.

Saratoga clubs seems to involve a lot of bro-ing and manning up.

"I have even been referred to as 'abnormally honest' at times... but really its a dry sarcasm that people don't get."

"We were in the cake isle..." ah, the Isle of Cake, if only...

Touching up grout can be very sensual.

A missed connections poem as a lament that she's a straight girl.

So... she really needed, uh, plumbing?

"Ur name was casey?... as in.. all the workers at ur work tell you in spanish it means 'what if'."

Missed connections lesson: Parents' eyes aren't always on their kids.

So, at the nudist barbecue, the person who draws the short straw has to work the grill, right?

I wonder where the 10 chickens that used to live in that Taj Mahal chicken coop went...

I hope Mr. Date's conversational skills are better than his spelling.

i think a fainting goat would be the perfect companion for my dog...she is playful and social too.
