Women online

A friend of mine (this guy was webmaster and maintainer of a now-defunct website meant for geeks) was once serenaded online by this girl called Kavita. They got chatting because of the site, and she sent him a photograph of hers. The girl in the photograph was what we called drool-category back in college (Ok, not only back in college).

I was suspicious initially, but she apparently convinced him that the photograph was really hers, and I believe they chatted online for months after that.

Of course, like many real-life online-love-stories, it came out that the photograph wasn't hers. And that she was really a he.

So, I prefer to believe that any good looking girl I meet online is really a 53-year-old truck driver. Like single girls, good-looking-female-online-acquaintainces, just do not exist.

Unless, of course, some good looking girl wants to convince me otherwise (Hint, hint).
