OnoMONZopoeia!
Dittolunch.
Approximately a decade ago, the EIC registered with a certain religious-based online dating service, which has since undergone some changes in their business model and matchmaking practices. Years ago the EIC would get emails on ocassion from women he presumed were enamored with his deceptively prestigious job description (his moonlighting job that is -- the EIC would never trade on the good will of MYL just for...you know). These went nowhere fast, especially when a picture was insisted upon (and delivered).
Yesterday the EIC was stunned to receive an email sent through the service in response to his hasn't-been-changed-in-years profile. It apparently said he's an avid newspaper and magazine reader, for the email simply consisted of a question of which of the two Chicago dailies he preferred, as well as similar questions about newsweeklies and glossy celeb mags. Alas, the Social Editor (SE) is vacationing in Aruba this week and is unavailable for consult, so the EIC answered the best he could. Now Monz has been known to opine on such situations, however, he does it with sounds more often then words. Monz is at band practice, so we can only imagine the advice he would give!
