Missed Connections

I often tell my friends that the "Missed Connections" on craigslist.org contains some of the best literature of our time. As a narrative nonfiction writer, I'm always inspired by its musings. On any given day, the posts might include whichever genre you're hoping for. I frequently read the boards because you come across everything from hopeless romantics (like myself) to people who may or may not have escaped from a lunatic asylum (like myself). There is comedy, horror, romance, drama, suspense... it covers it all. It's truly worth checking out.

Here is a posting that I found tonight in Pittsburgh's missed connections, m4w section. I'll spare the picture of the man's truck that he built himself. I don't want to get too personal. I will say that I appreciate that our mystery man likes to "keep it real" (see point number 6)... Definitely sounds like my type of guy. I'm not a nag but if we want this to work long term, the smoking habit might eventually need sorted out. But I can be flexible for the right person (that's what she said).
