I've mentioned how I have a little crush on Salon.com Rebecca Traister elsewhere on this blog and in real life. RT offers this to induce groans and amused-but-disgusted chuckles:
How to snag a man this holiday season
Today, the New York Post's Cindy Adams reminds readers that the holidays are approaching. Since "everybody needs somebody to love," Adams interviews matchmaker Lisa Ronis about how lonely women can best "find a warm body."
The first of Ronis' bright ideas, according to Adams, is "look pretty. Package the femininity. Hair done, makeup done, lose the weight, manicure a must. Never walk the dog without lip gloss."
Second? "Feel good about yourself." Which should be no problem, assuming you already wear lip gloss to walk the dog.
Ronis and Adams encourage women to hit on everything with a pulse, from pharmacist to decorator.
"You can find 'product' (read: guys) anywhere," Ronis tells Adams. "Charity events, dog runs, sports places, tennis games, gyms, bicycle clubs. In airplanes."
If you're anxious to have someone make you feel unfeminine and refer to men as "product" in the flesh, Ronis does personal consultations.

In other RT-highlighted news, Abercrombie caves over stupid T shirts. Larry Summers breaths sigh of relief. He sent me an email today, by the way. I'll tell you what he said tomorrow, if it's not too trivial.

"Sports places"?! What the hell does that mean?! Yeesh, this lady is a weirdo. Glad your talk went well. Etc. I had a lousy weekend. You can read all about it if you want.
