7 Steps to a Successful Startup Aug. 4 in Dallas
Published July 16, 2011 Uncategorized Leave a CommentLove trumps kids, income, jobs, faith & education
Published July 15, 2011 Relationships , Research Leave a CommentI’ve followed the online dating industry for 16 years. Match.com shares some of their secret sauce in The Love Equation: How Match.com Calculates Your Ideal Mate.
One interesting fact – people don’t make contact if you don’t meet their visual/physical requirements like body type. But they break their own rules otherwise. Over 50% of people disregard their must-haves when it comes to kids and income. Over 20% ignore job, faith, and education.
But it’s unclear whether that means flirting and sex know few boundaries, daters lack self-discipline, or we all lie to ourselves.
In any case, one truism remains. Women DO like to date good Jewish boys.
Yes, I am a Comma Queen
Published July 2, 2011 Commentary 2 CommentsYou have to have the final piece of the punctuation pie. Really, how stupid does that phrase look without your friendly neighborhood comma, man?
That’s what I learned growing up. Like a good adult I’ve questioned that orthodoxy and found it still all good. It’s easy to learn, easy to read, and logical. What’s not to love? But journalism rags like AP and the New York Times have eschewed the lowly comma for the questionable esthetics of minimalism and mystery.
Now Oxford itself (University) is chucking it. Read more here. Well, they’re entitled to their (wrong) opinion. But they’ll have to pry that mark from my cold, dead hands. And keyboard.
