Karen, I feel you have an  overly  pessimistic  attitude  towards  first
dates. I am always hopeful and optimistic on first dates, as

     1) It is always nice when the other person agrees to the date, and

     2) I wouldn't have asked the person out if I didn't have some hopes
        that we would be in some way able to have a good time together.

Furthermore, I also find myself disagreeing with your strategy for  said
first  dates, as I much prefer going out to drink beer at the local pub,
or walking in the park, or something which allows communication  between
the  two  persons,  as opposed to the plan you suggest which seems to be
intended to distract the person(s) from devoting attention to the  other
person.  The whole idea is to see if you like one another, isn't it?
