A Manhattan judge is siding with two women who didn't get dates.
The judge says the Internet dating service Great Expectations has to refund all their fees after dashing their expectations.
One woman was refunded the $1,000 she paid for a six-month membership. The other gets the nearly $3,800 she paid for a 54-month deal.
The judge said, "There was a massive overcharge by the dating service."
Great Expectations had claimed its operation was set up in a way so that the state's Dating Services Law did not apply to it. It plans to appeal the ruling.

I paid Greater Expectations.
Decided to move to a South Pacific Island instead, though, of doing the photo/video thing.
Took a few months with American Express badgering them for there bookies to REFUND my initial payment, since they never took photos or videotaped me.
These poor girls didn't GET any money, they had their payment refunded. Zero sum gain, I would suppose.

not that it matters to you, but they are very uncomfortable on the soles of one's feet. not that you'd be concerned about that aspect of fishnets. Yeah, but it's absolutely murder on the fishes.

Sometimes you have to sacrifice comfort for looking good! Remember, it is better to look good than to feel good.

Or, is it that she got lead piped in the face???
To: EX52D

Ya know, you and DD are this close from being taken off my Christmas list. You may not think that's a big deal but I know plenty of people who would like a subscription to "Nude Volleyball".
