Self-professed nerds find love at dating clubs
The nerds of the world have finally met their match: Each other.Thanks to nerd-themed dating Web sites, museum parties, steamily intellectual lectures, meetups at comic book conventions and, yes, even a matchmaking company called Nerds at Heart, self-identified nerds are finding that smart is the new sexy.Carrie Dahlby, 29, of Chicago sought out Nerds at Heart after becoming disappointed with the more conventional ways of connecting."As a shy teetotaler who attends 10-20 science-fiction fandom conventions per year, I knew I needed a place other than a regular bar or club to meet people," she said.The one person she met online and dated wasn’t a good match, and the results were equally fruitless on a singles phone line.She struck gold at the first Nerds at Heart event she attended, meeting boyfriend Josh Rasey.
Intimidating groups of teenagers adorn the landscape
I usually come away with new respect for mothers of small children. You can learn much about people and our own demographic by watching shoppers at the mall. I am reminded of how my grandparents, many years ago would angle park their car along the main street of my small town so they could observe the coming and going of Friday night shoppers. I guess I am continuing a family tradition by mall watching. Archie, Betty and Veronica of long ago are no longer on the scene, nor is the local soda joint. The last time we saw that was on "Happy Days" on television. The same sociology is at work today at the mall as was in those old comic books, except that it seems we have more of the Jughead characters than we had in the 40's and 50's. Intimidating groups of teenagers adorn the landscape. Sometimes dressed in black T-shirts, low slung jeans and chains with evidence of body piercing.
