Just me having fun with the sad sacks of craigslist M4W in Washington, DC.

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

Under the title "George Seeking My Martha" I finally do my take on the Matrixman (permalink), who has been for the last several months Neo looking for his Trinity. He claims to be swimming in the deep end of the pool, but I'm thinking that he's probably has those floaty things on his forearms.

Did you see the movie? That is the kind of love that I want in my life. Remember how Martha, played by Elizabeth Taylor says to Richard Burton as George, "Hey, swamp! Hey swampy!" And George replies, "Yes, Martha? Can I get you something?" and Martha says, "Ah, well, sure. You can, um, light my cigarette, if you're of a mind to." Then George says, "No. There are limits. I mean, a man can put up with only so much without he descends a rung or two on the old evolutionary ladder, which is up your line. Now, I will hold your hand when it's dark and you're afraid of the boogeyman and I will tote your gin bottles out after midnight so no one can see but I will not light your cigarette. And that, as they say, is that." And here's poor George Segal and Sandy Dennis who don't know what to make of any of it!

While I know that it is just a movie and this is just CL I am realistic that a love like this will probably not come about as a result of this ad. I still don't think that I should give up and I know that my gin-swilling Martha is out there. I am 6'1" weigh 168 lbs, athletic, and good looking. I graduated a few years ago from UVa with my Master's so the air of superiority that I cultivate is pretty genuine. Most of my friends would say that I nuts.

If the idea of hanging out sounds intriguing to you and you would like to meet for copious amounts of alcohol, and you might be inclined to think that you are the Earth Mother and men are all flops, please leave me a note and I will respond as soon as I can.

Please send a pic with your response. I hope to hear from you soon.

Peace, Mr. BananaHammock
