STIEGLITZ SEEKS O'KEEFFE.

American writer in France, 62, broke but not poor, seeks brilliant younger woman, 25-50, for mutual inspiration. Must be sane, independent, resourceful.

LITHE ROMANCE LANGUAGES PROFESSOR (F),

Manhattanite, somewhat stubborn, seeks man of letters, means, and conviction, 40-ish, for serious play.

IF I WERE LAUGHTER,

I'd be warm, sensual, and spontaneous. If I were a car, I'd be a mini European import, filled with exciting travel plans. If I were a book, I'd be interesting, illustrated, and you'd curl up with me, If I were a recipe, you'd need quality ingredients, and time to simmer and enjoy. If we're the ones for each other, we'll love and learn together for a long time. If I were you I'd contact me. 65-72.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO FIND A LITERATE, FUNNY,

unstuffy gay black female, 35-55, who would en*joy [sic] the company of same? I'm well-educated, well-travelled, attractive, fit, and sometimes irascible, but always sane. Would enjoy (no asterisk) theater, concerts, and meals in NYC. I have few of what people call "issues" except for the unfortunate inability to find suitable, sustainable, interesting companionship.

SACRED SPACE:

attentive, sensitive full-body touch by elegant, empathetic woman.

NINETEEN YEAR OLD

boy has faith that she, too, has been waiting for someone their age to place an ad here. [email protected]

Persuasion

In February next year I will begin work in my garden on a 1:128 working scale model of the Karakumsky Canal, which stretches 1,200km from Haun-Khan to Ashkhabad, Turkmenistan. It irrigates a course of 800km and is the largest in the world. Now make love to me. Man, 53. Kettering. Box no. 5889

Traumas of the Past

Some incidents in life are blacked-out for a reason. Much as I shudder to recall an incident at Dulwich in 1968 involving a goose, a penny whistle, and the local priest, so you will probably twist in the wind whenever, in years to come, you're forced to relate a tale about how you once replied to a personal advert in a flurry of misplaced appreciation for what you regarded at the time as a heightened and sophisticated sense of irony. Man, 40. Hates geese. And priests. And penny whistles. Box no. 7793.

I AM A SICK MAN.

I am a wicked man. 67-year-old corporate lawyer looking for an elegant, distinguished 45-60 year old woman (blonde, preferably, though Asian is always appreciated), who isn't afraid of intellect, to join him in testing the limits of nihilism.

Sans Corpulence

Late 20s male, living north of London. Like all aspiring writers, would prefer Paris but have neither money nor mettle for relocation...Less like Heathcliff, more like Sancho Panza (sans corpulence). Seeking: female, close in age, willing to meet a man of no magnitude.

Untapped Reserves

Woman, 35. Large untapped reserves of buttock and frontal lobe.

EROTIC EXPLOSION

Let me blow your mind, your ultimate erogenous zone. Provocative talk with educated beauty. No limits. (866) 540-7588.

IF CONNECTING WITH A SOMEWHAT QUIRKY

29-year-old Columbia Ph.D. student who is at least reasonably attractive by most standards, and who has a sincere intrest in much of the standard cultural fare of a reasonably well-educated urbanite (e.g., opera, theater, live (mostly classical) music, art museums) piques your interest, you might consider contacting me. By way of greater disclosure, I might add that I have an incorrigibly curious nature, a handful of curmudgeonly views, a streak of friskiness, a touch of melancholy. I'd like to find a partner, guide, lover, leader, and co-explorer and -idler. Please be between roughly 40 and 55, at least a tad unconventional, kind (of course), passionate, and, at least in some one way, rather exceptional. I'll be happy to provide a photo once contact is established. [email protected]
