Being the first day of Harvey's Got a Match, I thought it would be appropriate to have a Grand Opening Sale. This week, I have found ideal men for TWO women, and whereas you will ordinarily get to read about just one match for nothing, this week you get TWO for nothing.

My first matchmaking miracle was for Crystal, who writes:

"Live each day as if it was your last because you never know if tomorrow will come."

My unquestionable choice for Crystal is Randolph.

Randolph's pastimes included reading Ben Franklin, Confucius, Jesus, Tibetan Times, Jehovah's Witnesses' Watchtower, Gone with the Wind, Star Trek, and NRA Monthly.




















Randolph writes:

"Tomorrow will come, but it might not."

"When tomorrow cometh, ye should live as if it hadenteth."

"Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow someone may say of you, "He's dead, Jim."

"Tomorrow begins the year of the Rooster, let us be silent, and speak only truth."

"A penny saved is a penny earned. You not save, you be solly tomolo."

"Never put off until tomorrow what you can get off my ship today."

"Live each moment in righteousness, for He is watching, even though you can't see him because of the cloaking device."

"If your neighbor slaps you today, turn the other cheek. Tomorrow, shoot his ass."

"You never know if tomorrow will come. That is not logical."

"Give a man a fish, and you feed him today. Teach a man to fish, and HE WILL NEVER BE HUNGRY AGAIN. I can't think about that now. I'll think about it tomorrow."

"Today I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I'm takin' my dog, so it'll be two to beam up."




Our second winner is Beatrice, who writes:

"I'm crazy about Nascar, Harleys, football, drag racing, blues, country, oldies and Motown."

For Beatrice, we have Melville.

The Perfect Match


Profile of the Week: Judy Writes...

We are but a string in the web of life.

The Match: My choice for Judy is Bob. Bob is a poet, and has already fallen in love with Judy just from reading her words. Bob fittingly responded with a poem, which was a little long to publish in its entirety. And, to tell you the truth, the last forty pages were a little deep for me to follow.

Bob believes that his gift with words comes from his childhood. Having a name that is spelled the same forward and backward confused him, made him aware of his uniqueness, and forced his mind onto serious matters. I'm hoping that Judy can see the potential these two have. I'm told that having something to look forward to may speed Bob's release.

Bob writes:

I am not a woman

You are

I am but a man

You are not

I am nothing special

You are

I am but a blog on the net of inter

You are not

I think, therefore

You are

I am but a pat of butter on the in of muff

You are not

I look out my window, are you there?

You are

Somewhere. I'm here. Are you coming?

You are not

Oh

Oh

Why

Why not?

You are but an angel in the heaven of earth

You are

I am but a turd in the forest

Alone

Smelling

I am

You are not

I am but a shopper in the mall of loneliness

I visit it often

The directory map says

You are here

But

You are not

I Am

Alone

Smelling

You are

You are
