q-ball

this email arrived today in my queue:

'If you love a guy with a shaved head, have we got the event for you. We've partnered with HeadBlade®, the ultimate head shaving razor, for a special speed dating party for men who shave their head and the women that love them.'

that's the gist courtesy of the speed-date folks. i am temporarily speechless, dumbfounded by an event centered solely around the fact that the men in question are bald. maybe it makes sense, does it, since there are events for people who are straight, old, young, christian, jewish...bald is just another parameter.

but what about a more reasonable parameter? a more discerning one—an event for fans of the nights of cabiria or people who like to read memoirs or lovers of the song 'piano fire' by sparklehorse and pj harvey (which i was just listening to and oh how i love that song). maybe a dating event for the hazel-eyed or royal-toed or outie-belly-buttoned or chronic lefties or mono-browed or geographically-tongued?

i wonder and i know that at the least, the shizz is worth a post.

The question remains, are you going to go to this event? Who didn't love Telly, but maybe it was the lollipops.
