This NYT article about the new wave of pizzas got me thinking. I still have Cheri Burbach’s book Internet Dating is not Like Ordering a Pizza here somewhere…I thought it was a unique and fun take on dating the Internet, from a survivor, with a sense of humor. How about a TShirt that reads: You looked so much better on your profile? “The book is full of advice and examples that daters (online or not) can use.” All Books Review.

So here goes - a free copy of the book goes to the commenter who tells the best or worst date story (Internet or blind) and bonus points if you include a compelling pizza recommendation, or fun pizza story.
