To amuse myself lately, I've been browsing through craigslist missed connections. Today I found this one under the header "Black VW Jetta from Maryland":
You kept honking at me and another car for stopping to let some pedestrians cross San Vicente Blvd. (in a crosswalk!) I'm hoping you were in a rush to leave LA and drive cross-country back to Maryland. But if not, I'm hoping we can make a real connection soon. I'd love to bump into you while you were say...on a first date or having a business lunch.
You can find more of the interesting word usements I structure* on Apple.com.
