September 29, 2000 TECHNOLOGY WITH CURVES. This brand-new collection of profiles of "women reshaping the digital landscape" includes...me! This woman couldn't have done it without Chris, of course. Hey, maybe there's someone in there for him! TALK ABOUT OFFICE ROMANCE. SocialNet is currently featuring a Win a Date With Our CEO contest. No, Breakup Mom. WHAT ARE YOU LIKE? In Anne Enright's new novel, Maria digs through her lover's stuff...and finds a picture of herself at age twelve, in clothes she's never worn, and a place she's never seen. That leads her to uncover some bigass secrets in her Irish homeland -- and that'll teach you not to snoop! FUZZY BRUSH. Scrubbing Bubbles meet Tribbles (the plaque-eating variety) in this chewable/disposable "all-in-one toothbrush and breath freshener." Carry a few for dates, spinach salads, and -- I didn't say this -- unplanned one-night stands. WE ARE GATHERED HERE TODAY FOR A WORD FROM OUR SPONSOR. The New York Times reports that more and more plucky brides are getting wedding goodies and services donated in exchange for promotional consideration in the program or on a special "sponsors' table." Sorry, money's no excuse any more! LOVE IN THE 90s. Not the 90s. Your 90s. If you ever want proof that this whole romance thing actually works, you can get it in spades in Keri Pickett's memoir of her grandparents' life together. Josie and B.B. met in 1928, in a small town in Oklahoma. Before they were married they wrote each other hundreds of the sweetest, most touching letters you've ever read, many of which are reprinted here. Not just a sentimental coffee table book, "Love..." is a wonderful inspiration to pick yourself up after a tough relationship ends and keep hoping for the best. -- Colin.
