Hey Bill.... If one includes their marital status (or non-marital as the case may be) on their signature/PD-statistics line, don't ya think the LEAST they could do is maybe add the number of kids they have at home? <don't respond - I've got my tongue firmly planted in my cheek right now) <grin> Oh, say..... and even more important then the number of kids one might encounter, how's about listing the number and species of PETS in ones family home? Sheeeeesh! I'm single (with 2 kitties and <2 adult daughters on their own>) and can remember the shock of going to the home of a nice fella I'd been on a few dates with, only to find he'd conveniently neglected to tell me his drug-addict-27-year-old-son AND five - YES, F*I*V*E Boxer dogs ALSO lived in that home with him!!!! OHMAGOSH!!! Who CARED if he could cook and drove a red Ferrari!!?!?!! (laughing at memory of my response to seeing that menagerie!) <I was stunned speechless when mama-Boxer peed on the kitchen floor, I can tell ya THAT> Ya know - I've dated a Parkie or two and the first thing I found out was we were ALWAYS in "off" mode at different times! <groan> Made for some funny experiences.... and I didn't hafta worry 'bout running out of Sinemet while with a date! <smile> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Bill Harrington <[log in to unmask]> To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN <[log in to unmask]> Date: Wednesday, January 06, 1999 7:36 PM Subject: an idea for id'ing >Hi again list folks, I have another (dumb)? idea re identifying ourselves. >It seems we tell intimate details of our illnesses, ages, onset etc. but >we seldom indicate our marital status.
