It's a beautiful day for soccer! (Embarcadero)

2009-11-08T10:58:41-08:00

Our coed soccer team is looking for a female player to join us for our game today at 2 pm. We play 7v7 on a half size turf field on Embarcadero at pier 27. We have enough girls for the game, but looking for one more so that we can sub in and out. This is a great opportunity to have some fun and meet some new people!

Our team is not too serious, so if you're not a great player feel free to get back to me. We mostly just like to have fun and have a couple of beers after the game. Great players are of course invited too! So, if you're interested, the game is at 2 pm and feel free to give me a call.

The lone stipulation is that you must have shin guards.

Thanks,
Doug

Climbing partner wanted for BIW (berkeley)

2009-11-08T10:50:12-08:00

Been climbing for about a year and a half and climb mostly 10s but am looking to push myself into 11s and possibly get my lead card. I'd like to climb about once a week. I'm also interested in climbing outside, but don't have much for equipment.. I am a safe and attentive belayer :)

Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays work best for me, but am willing to work around another schedule. I am able to climb as soon as 5p and like 2 hour sessions.

29 y/o female 5'3'' 125 lbs. I'd ideally like another female partner or at least someone around my height, so we can learn from one another!

Mission Cliffs / GWPC / IronWorks Climbing Partner Mornings/Mid-Day (mission district)

2009-11-08T10:35:25-08:00

Do you enjoy climbing top-rope at Mission Cliffs, Iron Works or GWPC but don't always have a regular partner?

Since my existing climbing partners can't always make it, I'd love meet additional climbers with which to do some climbs and (optionally) exchange pointers.

I generally prefer off-hours times (mostly weekdays 8:30-12:30 or 1:30-5:30) and 3+-hour sessions (I like to build stamina on 8+ climbs per visit, especially when traveling to GWPC or Ironworks since I live in SF), so hopefully you're of like mind. If you're up for these longer timeframes, even if I happen to climb a bit faster or slower than you do, I'm happy to be patient as you climb at your pace if you can return the favor when I'm pushing myself on tougher climbs. Since my schedule changes week-to-week, I typically would email you once per week with desired days/times/places to climb, so you can reply-back if/when those dates/times/places work for you.

I've been climbing at Mission Cliffs primarily since January and am currently a high-5.11 climber and V0-V4 boulderer. Getting over to GWPC and IronWorks at least once per week is a priority for me for some route variety (lately I've done so many of the MC routes over and over). I've also been starting to take my lead climbing tests (and very close to certification) - so I could use some lead partners (ideally around 175-180lbs. like me, but anyone else is fine too) for the test cycle (best time/location: 4PM-6PM weekdays at MC) and (hopefully) ongoing lead climbs. I have a 1/2 length rope perfect for indoor mocking or leading, which I'm happy to share.

Lastly, if you've done outdoor climbing locally, I've just acquired outdoor gear and am looking to do more trips soon (we just completed a private clinic down at Castle Rock to learn all the top rope setting and rapelling skills needed). Have climbed top rope and lead trad climbs at Yosemite, Red Rocks & Joshua Tree, and am looking to do outdoor local day trips once/weekend going forward.

If all of the above sounds good, please indicate so in your reply and include your phone number and info about your weekly schedule!

I look forward to meeting you!

Cheers,
-Jason

Are You Passionate About Music, Climbing, Biking, Food, Conversation? (mission district)

2009-11-08T10:34:42-08:00

Are you deeply into any or all of these activities and looking for others to do the same? Do you like to converse on what you're passionate about?

I'm a 32-yr-old Mission-district-dwelling cook/caterer, business consultant, indoor climber, distance cyclist, hiker, skiier, snowboarder, outdoor adventure seeker, music critic/appreciator and amateur guitarist seeking like-minded people to hang out with in and around San Francisco. I'm not seeking romantic relationships, as I have a long-term girlfriend.

Although I understand many people have familial, work, or other responsibilities that can make socializing difficult, I'm fortunate at the moment to have my own businesses and free time to make meeting people and developing friendships a high priority. If this is a high priority for you as well, let's meet and chat. I also love great cocktails and dive bars (and shooting pool or throwing darts), as well as cheap eats and fine dining restaurants alike.

Ideally you live in San Francisco as well, so commuting/logistical issues are minimized, allowing us to potentially do something regularly if we both gel. I often like to plan restaurant/bar, music, and outdoor activity outings, but I also love someone else to take the initiative and do some planning as well. Most importantly, no flaking - if you find it difficult to be on time and/or make decisions and hold commitments, no need to reply. I see friendships as relationships that deserve time and attention, not conveniences for filling unused time.

In my experience meeting other folks, we'll probably be a better fit if you are seriously into at least one or two of the activities/subjects I mentioned. If you're interested in any/all of them but haven't yet pursued, you may find more suitable folks to get started with on one of the many existing Yahoo-based local groups (meetup.com, SF Outside, 20s 30s Socials, Skipals, etc.). Also, if you prefer to socialize in large groups, you may want to look elsewhere. I prefer the genuine interactions that seem to arise from smaller groups of 2-3 people.

Again, please note that this is NOT a posting for a large "social group" with pre-set weekly/monthly meetings etc. If you are more large-group minded, I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

Lastly, it'd help if you're at least in your mid-20s, or at least a very mature early-20s. If you have a non-stop party mindset, or are just getting acquainted with San Francisco for the first time, while I'd be happy to give you some recommendations, I'm seeking people closer to my current level of maturity and state of mind and who will take the initiative to make plans.

Email me!

When you email me, please add my address to the Contacts folder or file in your email program - this will assure that you receive my replies promptly.

I look forward to meeting you!

Running Partner (Berkeley/Oakland)

2009-11-08T10:28:15-08:00
Looking for running partner, in the Berkeley/Oakland area.

I'm looking to get back into a consistent running schedule with someone, after having taken several months off. Ultimately, I'd like to get out at least two or three times a week. Generally early evenings work best -- possibly a weekend day. At the moment I would describe my pace as "easy." But, hopefully after some re-conditioning I can be back to more of a "moderate" pace. I'm not exactly sure of my minutes-per-mile pace.....ideally, maybe 10 minutes after some training.

I've found a couple of running partners on CL before, who have since moved out of the area. It would be great to have the extra motivation again!

If you're interested please shoot me an e-mail.

Thanks!

Help Fight Breast cancer Free >

Hi to all Breast Cancer supporters. This seems pretty simple. Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily to meet their quota of getting free funding for mamograms. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on "Fund Free Mamograms" for free. This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate money for advertising. Here's the web site! There is also a few links to feed animals,feed people and the rainforest site. Pass it along to people you know.

Spanish for Pirates by Native Speaker 2hr classes & Movie-Dinner G (berkeley)

2009-11-07T23:44:34-08:00
Hi, I am forming a Spanish language study group in South Berkeley, 3 blocks from Ashby BART Station.

I am a native Spanish speaker who immigrated to the U.S. as a one-year-old. At university, I took the Spanish placement exam for native speakers and tested out of (and received credit for) two years of Spanish study. This was thanks to my incredible mother, who taught me Spanish at home, because the foreign language programs at the schools I attended were aimed at assimilating children and taking their (non-English) native languages away. I also completed higher Spanish classes towards my Bachelor's and received �A� grades in all of them.

My focus is on language as an artistic, spiritual, unifying, expressive, connective, cultural, and political force and tool and how we, as diverse communities and travelers, can use the medium of Spanish to expand our personal paradigms, enhance our experiences, and strengthen our societies. It is to that end, that no one will be turned away for lack of funds (we are a non-profit that is always in need of volunteer hours for work-barter) and we focus on what our students wish to learn, not what any dogmatic curricula has to say they should learn.

Students are requested to write down 5 phrases per week and to bring their list to translate in class. If you need help, you can call on a classmate to lend you a hint. These phrases should reflect the situations and exchanges you are hoping to have out in your life and in which knowledge of how to express yourself in Spanish would help you out.

Classes are 2 hours long and meet 1/week. Possible timeslots for the next study group are: Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays from 6 - 8pm, depending on student availability. The curriculum also includes monthly movie and dinner nights. We will provide a Spanish-language movie, subtitled in English, and host a dinner and conversation practice at our studio.

Please e-mail the following:

1)Name
2)E-mail
3)Phone
4)Previous Spanish language experience
5)Why you want to learn Spanish and what are your goals?
6)Preferred day: Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, or if you can't make any of those slots, what days/times are you available?

Thanks for reading this ad, and best of luck to you in your studies! �Gracias por haber leido este anuncio y mejor suerte a usted en sus estudios!

grammer help on a daily basis?

2009-11-07T22:33:42-08:00
This is, indeed � maybe-, a strange proposition. I am an ESL (English as a second language) speaker, and my English incapabilities have become truly frustrating. My inability to correctly pronounce words and write in coherent matter are starting to negatively impact not only my professional, but also personal life. I have gotten to the point where I have mastered English enough to survive, yet I still cannt freely convey my thoughts orally. Ahhhh�
Hence, for lack of time and resources to take an English class, I have decided to keep a diary. I have to write at least one coherent paragraph a day. I want someone who is bored enough to proofread it every day and send back with corrections! What an odd proposition? My diary entries might get intimate, or sometime private � such is the nature of a diary. And I will share them anonymously. But then, I, indeed, lead a fairly normal life and this would be purely for fun and mainly, an attempt to improve at this damn language. Is someone in? Maybe you are bored at work and have unlimited internet access?

Would you correct this?

ASL lessons for massage (mountain view)

2009-11-07T20:45:33-08:00
I am seeking a very skilled person to learn ASL and/or csign (sp?) from.
I want to learn to communicate as authentically, fully, and fluently as possible,
so if you are silent/deaf, and have a ton of patience to teach me by signing,
that would be awesome!!!!

I am a skilled and experienced massage therapist,
and would love to trade massage for ASL lessons.

Search for Meaning - Reading/Discussion Group (oakland rockridge / claremont)

2009-11-07T20:44:58-08:00
Seeking kindred spirits who would like to meet to discuss books and ideas that explore the meaning of life and what makes for happiness or transcendence.

Participants of the group that I have in mind would share these characteristics:

1. You are less than totally enchanted with this life. Deep depression is not necessary. The group might even benefit from some truly happy individuals. But you must have some misgivings about the uneven distribution of happiness and the goods of this world, and a hankering for something deeper than tv, money, football, or sex.

2. You don�t pretend to have found all the answers to life�s problems and challenges. This will be a group of seekers, not proselytizers. You see nuance and complexity where others might see simple answers and solutions.

3. You are able to listen to others, sympathize with them, and discuss things dispassionately.

I�m hoping that the group could meet somewhere near Oakland once a month. I�m open to a diversity of literary genres � fiction and poetry, for example, in addition to philosophy and psychology. Self-help wouldn�t be one of the genres; and the group, as I envision it, wouldn�t be focused on discussing their specific personal problems � just their struggle to make sense of it all.

I�m open to anyone�s suggestions, but just to give you a sense of where I�m coming from, these are among the authors that I�d like to investigate:

Henri Bergson
Gabriel Marcel
Karl Jaspers
Simone Weil
Rollo May
Ernest Becker
Irvin Yalom

as well as some of the older classics: Boethius, Shakespeare, Spinoza, Kant, Kirgegaard

Don�t be offended if I don�t respond immediately. I tend to look at personal email on the weekend only, although after posting this I�ll try to do so a bit more often.

for search: meaning of life, philosophy, psychology, poetry, book club, reading group

Need a Motivational Speaker?

Hear Van Waller�s Powerful Story of Courage, Hope, and Overcoming Obstacles!

As an infant Van was diagnosed with a very serious skin condition that dramatically altered his lifestyle, relationships and self-esteem. Struggling through feelings of loneliness, thoughts of suicide and rejection by his peers, life seemed unfair and impossible. As Van grew older and his condition grew worse, the only medication that could provide any relief at all eventually caused him to go blind. Eventually Van found himself sleeping in the back seat of his car in a sleeping bag in various parking lots all over town. Being told by those closest to him that he would never succeed in life he decided to rise to the challenge.

Van Waller has regained his sight in more ways than one. Not only is he able to see now but he is showing others how they too can overcome what seem like impossible odds. Overcoming tremendous obstacles in the course of his own life, Van has gained some unique and powerful insights that can forever change the way you think, live and feel about yourself.

Through a series of insightful presentations he offers HELP - HOPE - COURAGE & INFORMATION. Van Waller is a powerful communicator who exhibits an excellent knowledge of his subjects. With a unique style that is refreshingly clear and easy to listen to. Van speaks straight from the heart right into the lives of his listeners with a passion that commands attention.

Van Waller has been seen on television, heard on radio, written about in newspapers, and would love to speak at your next event.

�If you would like to speak with me directly, book me to speak to your company, organization, church, or conference, or believe we could benefit each other in some way; please give me a call. Also take a look at my web site / Television interview clicking on some of the links below�

Activity partner with similar interests incl dancing, female or male

2009-11-07T19:23:48-08:00
Why do I always find myself going out by myself? I�ve lived in SF for almost 5 years now. I have a rather large amount of friends many who I�m very close with, and I�ve dated my fair share of women over the years. Yet, I still haven�t I solidified a close friend that enjoys the same events as me. I guess it�s mostly to do with the fact that I enjoy very particular types of events that most don�t. I also have a lot more energy and sense of adventure than most. I rarely let fear hold my curiosity back.

So what type of events do I enjoy? Well, a lot of different types really. Ones that engage me to learn and grow as a person or at least inspire me with great joy.

Dance events, educational presentations, spiritual workshops and meditations, drum circles, multicultural events of all sorts, live music performances, bike rides, outdoor excursions. One staple event I have been really enjoying lately is Ecstatic Dance: http://ecstaticdance.org

I�m not looking to date as a result of this posting. Thus I�m open to both male and female replies. Nevertheless, I am a straight single male. I wouldn�t be against dating if we end up having a really strong connection�.but really my main intention here is for an activity partner. Send me a message and let me know if you�d like to come attend some events together. Also, I�m happy to forward you a picture if you�d feel more comfortable that way�

Seeking other artsy cultured people (Bay Area)

2009-11-07T18:44:36-08:00
I am having a really hard time finding people who share common interests and are available to hang out on the weekends. I would love to find others interested in the following activities: foreign, independent and classic film, art and museums/galleries, music (either at the symphony or shows), performance (ballet, opera, kabuki, theater etc), exploring restaurants. If you share most of the above interests please contact me. I live in the south bay but I prefer to hang out in the city, if you live near me maybe we could even carpool to the city together. One note, I am not much of a drinker and try to keep most of my activities alcohol-free. What I am looking for is to meet other intelligent cultured people (I prefer females or gay males) who enjoy the arts and are reliable (not flaky). As for me, I'm a youthful 41 SAF seeking new friends and activity partners. Most of my friends have different work schedules from me or are married or have families, so it's hard to schedule weekend plans with them. If you can relate and this sounds interesting to you, please send me an email.

Looking for friends (santa clara)

But I also like indoors activities such as boardgames and movies.

*SF Tour Guide* (SF)

2009-11-07T18:13:44-08:00
After traveling to various spots around the World/America, I have learned it is imperative to have some help out and show you around to get a real sense of what a city or place has to offer. Yes the tourists stuff can be fun, but knowing how to get from point A to B is something people dont think about. Thats why I wanted to offer my services to anyone that is visiting the area and wanting to know more about what to do/see. I am willing to email you a list of things to do or if I have time would be willing to meet up and show you around. My weekends are free, but I work during the day. If this sounds interesting to you send me an email. I love being a tour guide and would be happy to help anyone in need. This is not for money, just out of good spirits and the desire to help others.

2009-11-07T18:13:14-08:00

Walking for fitness!

Meet other local people who are interested in Walking for fitness!

I'm just someone who wants to walk after work and wants others to join. This is NOT a high energy running for full fitness group. Nor will I be slacking. We will be walking for fitness for about an hour 2 - 3 times during the work week.

You see those people walking on your way home and think �Gosh I should do that!� Well this is who I am. I want to get some type of exercise in during my busy work week and would love some company. I don�t want a 2 hour gym session. I still need to go home and cook and clean.

I love walking around different residential areas checking out the latest landscape projects. And I also like to hike on the mountains.

I'm open to locations, Novato to Sausalito, as long as there is ample parking and they are very quick to get to afterwork.

I hope you can join me sometime.

Learn more and join this group at http://www.meetup.com/Krikkits-Walking-Meetup/.

► New Rigorous Classical Private School (san jose south)

2009-11-07T15:32:28-08:00
Are you disatisfied with south bay public school, private school, and homeschool options for your kids?

I am currently recruiting a start-up board for starting a new private school in San Jose. I expect this school to be extremely rigorous, innovative, and neo-classical in approach. We will not be affiliated with any religion.

Looking: Climbing Partner (Mission Cliffs) for Weekday AM

2009-11-07T14:58:39-08:00
I am looking for someone that can climb with me on the weekdays, starting anytime after 8am, and ending before noon. I just joined the gym and am a beginner, so I'm looking for someone who may be in a similar boat, or who is patient with beginners. My goal is to climb at least twice a week to start off, one weekday and one weekend. I have a consistent weekend partner but she's not available on the weekday mornings. But of course, if we find that we work well together, we can do weekend climbs as well. I also want to get my money's worth. ;-) My job schedule changes every week, so I'd like to set our day/time through email or text messaging through out the week. I may ask you if you can climb a few days before, the night before, or maybe, but very seldom, on the day of.

I'm a 27 year old female, laid back, and have been told that I am very fun to hang out with. :-)

I don't mind if you're a guy or girl, but if you're looking for something romantic to spark from this, I can't help you with that.

Have a great day/evening!

2009-11-07T14:58:38-08:00
Hi

I'm looking for some buddies that want to regularly play tennis, go hiking, play poker, badmitton whatever. I'm not picky, so long as you want to do something active.

I'm 25, married, male - would like to hang out with people around my age. Either gender is A-ok so long as you like getting outside. I'm not a creep.

My one active friend moved to Washington and everyone else has gotten (or already was) kinda lazy and just likes to drink and eat a lot. So looking for some new friends that like to do things.

I'm generally available weekends and evenings. So if you want to meet up just email me with an activity and day/time. Also, if anyone has a regular weekly $5-$10 poker game going on I'd very much like to join that.

-David

Childless by choice and feeling left out (napa county)

2009-11-07T13:43:15-08:00
My husband and I have chosen not to have children. If we were living in the city, we would find many other couples without children to do things with. We are in our early 40's. Our friends either have children and do the weekend sports and such or are just starting their families. Either way, we are finding that we would like to find others without children to do things like hikes, dinner out, dinner in, BBQs, board games, or just good old fashion visiting on the porch. We are educated and tend to be active. We like plays, comedy, food, wine and much more. If you are a couple in the same place we are, let's meet. We live in the north end of napa county.

Aikido for Children near San Bruno BART with lots of free parking

2009-11-07T11:38:14-08:00
Aikido for Children near San Bruno BART with lots of free parking

What is Aikido? Aikido, which means "Way of Harmony," is a martial discipline based on samurai sword movements and developed by Morihei Ueshiba.

Aikido focuses on self-control and self-discipline instead of punching or kicking and winning or losing. Aikido is non-competitive. There are no competitions, contests, sparring, nor tournaments. There are no winners; there are no losers; there is no score; no one is keeping any score. Instead, Aikido techniques are learned cooperatively according to the pace and skill of each practitioner.

The underlying defensive principles of Aikido make it ideal for the less physical to learn as a method of self defense, though there are many other benefits to the practitioner as training progresses, namely improved level of fitness, Weight Loss, Self-confidence, Relaxation / Stress relief, Co-ordination.

Aikido is an excellent physical exercise and effective self-defense. Moreover, it teaches a philosophy that integrates physical, cultural, and spiritual values that can have a profound effect on one's everyday life.

The Yoshinkan (House for Cultivating the Spirit) Aikido is not a sport. Aikido is the development and strengthening of the body and mind, character and spirit, and the practical side of Aikido must never be forgotten. However, Aikido is for all, irrespective of age or gender.

A "dojo" is a place of study or practice. New students can start practicing Aikido at the Higirikan Dojo at any time. If you are interested in practicing with us, or just curious what Aikido is like, please come by our dojo in South San Francisco. Visitors are welcome to watch our beginner classes. We look forward to practicing our Way of Harmony with you.

Children's classes are on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6 p.m.

We are a 10 minute walk from the San Bruno BART station, and we have lots of free parking.

For more information, please call (650) 872-2968.

Noe Valley Exercise Partner(s) 30 min/day 2 mornings/wk (noe valley)

2009-11-07T10:52:53-08:00
See original ad below:
1st session was this morning: the person who replied to my ad didn't show but someone else did and came over from Bernal! I tested the route/session last Mon & Tues and it was great! I almost did it on Wed and Fri morning as well. This morning went well and we're on our way. I plan to continue with the initial phase until I feel ready to move on (probably a few weeks).

Come out on Monday if you have been thinking about doing this. We are shifting to 915 am this Monday to accommodate the new person on this one day.

The point is getting the exercise in. I will probably add additional days in each week for myself; but don't want to be locked into that, so am not scheduling it. It's going to be ongoing and flexible, so join us. It's very effective.

Days: Sats/Mons 8:30am-9am
Begin Date: Nov 7
End Date: Dec 21- Mid-Jan (depending on interruptions or increased sessions)
Alternate Jog/Walk low stress cardio

Join me Mon and Sat mornings at 830 am at the corner of 23rd/Diamond in Noe Valley on the dates/times above to execute the Couch to 5k Running Plan.

This plan (http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml) begins each session with a 5 minute warm up walk, and starts by alternating 60 secs jogging 90 secs walking for 25 minutes. It gradually adjusts the walking to jogging ratio in a way that is manageable. I have already mapped a relatively flat circular route.

No need to respond or commit. I�ll be there (the possibility that you will too will keep me honest). I hope to institute a lifestyle change for myself. Please join me.

If you want to do this; but need to do so at an earlier time, do contact me as I may be flexible. Contact me also with any questions.

Hope to see you there!

Details: My handheld device will be set to prompt us for walk/jog changes. Build in any stretching you need ahead of time. The session starts at 8:30 am. The plan calls for 3 days/wk; but I've tried to set a goal that can be met easily of sessions/wk. I can be flexible on that with the right partner/group.

Waddell Creek Walk
Sunday, November 8, 2009 at 11:00AM
Let's walk in at Rancho Del Oso - Probably not to Berry Creek Falls, but maybe near the turn off for it. I think it's 5 miles in, 5 miles out or so... Bring lunch, water (at least 1/2 gallon) snacks, emergency flashlight. You can wear running shoes, or boots. It's basically a wide dirt road for most of it. It's straight in and straight out, not a loop, so people can turn back when they feel like it, if they leave with another person, and call my office at 831-759-1700 to tell me they got back safely afterwards.

Waddell is about 13 minutes north of Davenport on Highway 1. If people want to car pool from Brendan's on the West Side of Santa Cruz let's meet there at 10 am. Put a note in the comment section if you are offering a ride, or would like a ride and put from where.

I've got an evening engagement at 5:30pm so we'll have to be back down to the entrance gate of Rancho Del Oso at Highway 1 at 4:30pm, so that's 4 and 1/4 hours or so duratio

Hope to see you all there and hope we have nice weather. ...

Traditional Female seeking Fitness/Activity Friends (Santa Clara/SouthBayArea)

2009-11-07T09:03:34-08:00
Hi.

Thanks for stopping to read my ad.
I'm a 45 yo heterosexual/straight, single Female, just looking to make new girl or male friends to hang out with.
I'm a professional, more on the conservative side, so I'm not a wild partier or into crazy making.
I'm actually just looking for friends to workout with at the gym, take long hikes or walks with, go shopping, have coffee, see
a movie with, or just chat and get to know each other better to see if we want to continue a friendship.
Although I'm single, I am NOT looking to 'hook up.' So please no disrespectful responses.
I'm honestly just looking to make new friends who enjoy being active.

A bit about me:

I'm Tall
I love to wake up early and go to the gym.
Go for Hikes or Biking
Go for coffee and chat
Walk my dog
Go to the movies (I prefer Comedies, Romance, or supspense movies. NO Sci Fi or Horror)
Shopping and strolling around the mall (now and then)
Go for a drive to the city or elsewhere and play tourist, people watch in a cafe, shop, etc.
I'm open to ideas,...
I'm pretty easy going, once I'm comfortalbe knowing someone...
(I may be a bit reserved at first, but once I feel comfortabe knowing someone, I losen up..)
I'm a Christian/Catholic and attend services, so it would be nice if you were also open to this...

Anyhow, this is a bit about me....

If you're interested in chatting online and seeing if we'd be compatible as friends, and eventually meet in person,
drop me a line. :-)

I look forward to getting to know more about you and vice versa and Just Making New Friends (^-^)

Have a Great Day!

Chemist that knows the ester family (i.e. flavors) (campbell)

2009-11-06T21:17:04-08:00
Hi,
I'm working on creating an energy drink. I don't have a chemistry degree yet, but I'm going to shift my focus in the near future to work towards obtaining that. But right now, if someone who has knowledge of these substances wants to work with me to create a wonderful tasting energy drink, I'd love to work with you.
My family is strong in start up's and entrepreneurship, so I have a good deal of knowledge of the industry and drive to succeed. I also have a business degree which helps with aspects of business.
I've done a fair bit of research so far, on the market and what is composed of energy drinks. I have a mix of energy supplements that give a good boost of energy that is balanced. I'm soon to be working on the taste (smell) of the product. I'd be more then happy to make this a joint venture between the two of us and to give you ownership of part of the company. If you'd like to participate in this exciting adventure with me, please contact me.
thank you.

2.5-3.0 tennis player looking for rally partner (mission district)

2009-11-06T18:53:30-08:00
I am looking to rally with someone in my ability range on week nights (after 6) or weekends.
I am not quite at the 3.0 level but I think I am on my way.
I am not much of a talker, am pretty patient and want to get a good work out. I would prefer for someone who doesnt mind running to keep a quick pace.

I live very close to Dolores Park but would travel to other courts in the Mission neighborhood if necessary.

Thanks!

Oh and I am a 27 year old, married female if that info is important to you.
