Date a DEAD Celebrity...

Here's a new "matchmaking service" to try.

I got Poe, Van Gogh, and James Baldwin.
I asked if Baldwin would spent a date with me
playing frisbee in the park, and his response
was "Go tell it to the mountain, to someone who
cares-- you're not going to get anything from me."

Just when I thought dating a shirt was a bit strange....

Hey, you're about as likely to get a date with
Jackie Kennedy as you are with Beyonce.
(And she's probably easier to catch up with!)

Well, Raven = Edgar Allen Poe and Sunflowers = Vincent van Gogh,
but I dunno about the others. You have to go a bit further into the
process to get their real names.

And Mata Hari was a spy...

What did you tell it to get P T Barnum?

Mata Hari was Gertrud Margarete Zelle's stage name. Gertrud was accused of being a spy and subsequently shot by the French.

However, since they suggested I should be with Mata, it looks like I should have been with an exotic dancer/protsitute.

Connie, you have to go a few steps further, honey! Look in the upper right hand corner!

I got Leonardo da Vinci!

I think that's do-able with enough $$$, no?

It was IUP that got PT. Heck - I when I saw those names I freaked.

Come to think of it I'm still freaking a little

I don't know, based off her description I'm not sure if she made enough $$$ to support me.
