Dearest DateSpacers,
We’ve been thinking about the potential peril facing Thursdates. The problem at hand is the caprice of the arbiters of what is hip, boss, or otherwise Now. These are the same jerks that years ago made pink the new black, shabby the new chic, heinous the new “hot” (thank you, Sarah Jessica Parker). But it’s more than just fashion. No, these haters highjacked our days of the week, too. Remember when Friday was the new Friday? Well, we just learned that in fact Thursday is the new Friday. WTF? What about NBC’s hilarious ERsday pun? And, what, the ABC lineup of Full House, Family Matters, Perfect Strangers, and Just the Ten of Us is now TGIT?
Well, we’re not changing our line up at DateSpaces.com You can make Monday the new October for all we care. Thursdates is staying Thursdates. We may not be with it, but we know what we like. Now, if you’ll excuse us, we have backstage passes to “Gloria Estefan: Live!” Jon Secada is opening, and hell if we’re missing that.
1. DateSpace of the Week
Jsm39 recommends Grimaldi’s Pizzeria, as part of a Brooklyn adventure that begins with a walk across the Bridge. Jsm39 writes: “grimaldi’s is ill,” which is apparently a good thing.

2. This Week’s Ask Our Staff
When is it ok to fart in front of your flame…er…significant other? We’re sorry you asked. But since you did, you’re probably pretty desperate. Our advice is similar to that given by Wayne Campbell to his friend Garth in the film Wayne’s World (date movie?). Asks Garth: “Uhm, Wayne? What do you do if every time you see this one incredible woman, you think you’re gonna hurl?” to which Wayne wisely responds: “I say hurl. If you blow chunks and she comes back, she’s yours. But if you spew and she bolts, then it was never meant to be.”
