After graduation and joining my first engineering consultancy, the first joke I heard was told by a geologist (surname Underhill):
Q What do engineers use as a contraceptive?
A Their personality.
I thought that was terrifically funny but later on in life realised it could be true in my case, so my online dating profile was:
Personality Plus
Dating???? Dating???? Do you know what that leads to????
I took up serious dating with a pretty young gal back in 1970 and because of that today I am recognizing the fact that I have now been a grandpa for exactly 20 years.
It's like the old joke from Milton Berle where he states he wouldn't want to be a member of any club that was willing to accept his membership application.
Who would I want to date who was interested in someone who has been a grandpa for 20 years????
My wife and I "met" online back in the days when we had local dial-up BBS' (bulletin board systems) and the people made a point to meet in person on a weekly basis. Some of you might remember those days of dial-up when the Call Waiting "feature" would knock us offline -- we affectionately referred to it as "Call Wasting". Anyway, I was shy but finally came out of my hole to meet her at the local Denny's for one of the get-togethers -- I was in love before I even set eyes on her, but the in-person meeting just confirmed everything I was feeling. March 9 will be our 25 year Denny's anniversary and we'll celebrate by going to -- where else? -- Denny's. She's been putting up with me all these years and I'm lucky she's still hanging around.
Now, listen up fellers. We does has a few female participants in this here site. We doesn't want them to think we are ALL pigs, just most of us. So, when you say you wouldn't be interested in anyone who posts here, you may be hurting someone's feelings. There may even be a few fellers around here who happen to like fellers. You may be injuring their feelings as well. Please play nice.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
Cool story, Wendell. Funny stuff, Holy. Like I said, what's age got to do with it. I've been a grandpa for well over a decade. There are still women my age who want to date without being chained down, but it's nicer when they can relate at a similar level intellectually. Seems to be a rarity.
Well...............if you need them to come down to your level......................look in other places.

Not sure what that means, but most women I meet think I'm a rock star and want to marry me. They're sweet, but I'm not interested in anything serious. I just thought a dating site for surveyors would be cool. Laterz

You win the internet for the day with that one.

Dating advice:
A bachelor friend of mine says women are like dog turds:
the older they are, the easier they are to pick up.
