spinster, heal thyself

boy, is this not a good advertisement for this matchmaker’s services. Unless it would be unethical to skim the best bachelors for oneself, like insider trading or something.

    For a photo of Yenta Sam see http://nymag.com/nymetro/news/people/columns/intelligencer/n_9233/
    The article provides a few good, if three-year-old, details regarding her business, the most salient of which is her bold-face-name clientele. The A-Listers and their bona fide acolytes (not wannabees) constitute a relatively small number of people, especially when you compare the pool Y.Sam is likely to consider qualified for her services and the subscribers to Match.com. As I have opined elsewhere in the binary strings of ILYLM, online dating is a numbers game. It’s no wonder that Y.Sam’s demand for candidates quickly outstripped the supply (pun intended, thank you very much) and she went outside of her tribe ;) to find a mate.
    Diversity (the capital D kind) appears to be rewarding in unanticipated ways.
