What do you do when you've weeded out the real losers and
discover you've already graduated or are living off campus?

I agree, a college dorm is a wonderful place to get to know
people intimately, but most of the women I regarded as worthwhile
in college were buried under books more often than not.
I didn't pay much attention to the ones who never were...

So how about "real world" places?

I discovered recently that nine holes of golf make
for some nice, casual conversation, and a chance to
observe someone for a couple of hours.  Amazing what
conclusions you can jump to about a personality just
by watching how someone reacts to good/bad shots (not
to imply that golf is a general purpose personality analyzer).
Unfortunately, I would place the odds of being randomly
paired up with another single woman between now and the
end of the season at slightly less than nil.
(Fortunately, one random pairing led to several hours
of enjoyable conversation.  What more could one ask
of a random distribution funtion?)
