celebrating the singles out there...

hey all, this is just a random thought inspired by choko's (desmond) blog...

singles are weirdly enough considered by most to be unfortunate people... that their lives are little empty, and that they're missing out - but that's so defeatist! singleness is also a very cool status, in the fact that u have more time to meet new people, and that every new encounter has that excitement of "hey... he/she could be the one", and so much more...

me and 'lil jo have always thought it'd be a cool idea to do a christian 'speed dating thing' (u'll know what it is if u've seen 'hitch'), cuz it just looks like fun... and then hearing about the bgr forums that ocf have had... and we always joke about how different churches should get together due to the disparity of either single guys or girls... heck... why not?!

not so much a match making exercise (but i'll take the credit for any people that DO get together) just a way for people to get together, have a bit of fun and meet new people :D

sounds like a fun idea, but will need people to help make it happen...
