6 Cents on Speed Dating

Back in my day, speed dating was really speed dating. The girls parked their cars in the corner of the McDonald's parking lot and tried to get the guys who sped around the parking lot to stop. Big smiles, bright-eyes, and of course cute clothing accentuating all the right body parts sure did help with the effort. Now that was speed dating. But what has really changed from speed dating back in my day to speed dating now? Other than a change in venue ... nothing. Seems to me regardless of where, when, or how - in the boy-meets-girl effort it is all about the flirt.
