 Just to touch on a small point in the referenced article:
 
I just happen to enjoy good rock music. I also just happen to enjoy 
being single. Further, I also just happen to enjoy live rock music.
Therefore, once in a while, I go to one of the rock nightclubs in the
NW NJ area to enjoy live rock music while being single. (Of course, the
last is not in the forefront of my mind.)
 
Why is it that when I go to a rock nightclub alone, I find that the
vast majority of people there assume that:
 (1) I am there to pick up somebody/something; or,
 (2) I am there to meet somebody I am expecting; or,
 (3) I am there alone because I am somewhat strange; or,
 (4) I am there because I need to get drunk for one reason or another.
 
Why, furthermore, is it that people cannot accept the idea of a individual
going to a rock nightclub alone to enjoy good live rock music? 

Also, why is it that even worse than being in a rock nightclub alone, is
being in a rock nightclub alone and not drinking one's self into a stupor?
(at least in some peoples views...)
 
I am not against the idea of meeting new people and making new friends, in
fact I am all for it, however, that is *not* the primary reason for my going
to a rock nightclub alone. As one can infer, I don't go to drink myself
to a state of inebriation: I go for the music!!

So what does a single person do on vacation? I have no idea, but I am
very, very, very receptive to suggestions, as I am probably taking
part of the last week of September off, and really have no ideas as yet!!!

               Once again, signing my name, and opening myself up to
               all kinds of flaming,
