What do you wear to Seven Magic Mountains?

Seven Magic Mountains is an art installation located in the Nevada desert, and the weather can be quite hot and dry. Therefore, it is recommended to wear comfortable and breathable clothing, such as shorts, t-shirts, and sandals or sneakers. You may also want to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. It's also a good idea to bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated. While there is no strict dress code, it's important to dress appropriately for the weather and…

Almost!

No hangers on but no money either which is why I'd like someone wealthy too. Being a writer has its benefits but they don't pay the mortgage and as a pal declares, "I don't want to be a nurse or a purse."

Well, this just got interesting... LOL
Allan Lynch October 8, 2011 at 12:00am

Judy, age isn't an issue for me. Just your net worth and if there are any potential heirs or hangers-on (like family).

Allan, Too bad because I've reached the aspiration marriage bit, too, but then one of us is bound to be too old for the other!

I am the editorial director for a new upscale lifestyle magazine for the Downtown NYC community. Our travel pages are in the infancy stage. Right now, I am looking for a 400-500 word piece on an exotic locale for the Winter issue. At this time we cannot pay for editorial but writer will receive a byline on the piece and a pic and bio on our contributors page. If you have any ideas, please send them to sharih@downtownmagazinenyc.com.

Thanks, but gawd another 19 years!?! Hopefully I'll meet someone with money - I'm into aspiration marriage. And at this stage of life I'm open to any sex so long as the bank balance is healthy enough.

Just realized I have another magazine that I am also hovering at the 100 assignment point. But I've only had three editors there.

Allan, I just read your post. That you have managed to get along with so many editors and publishers is a singular achievement. The United Nations (or so it's called) could use your skills. Here's to the next 19 years!
Allan Lynch October 7, 2011 at 8:56pm

Rather fittingly for Thanksgiving Weekend I have just realized that a cover feature I have in one magazine this month is the 100th assignment I've written for them in 19 years. That's nine editors, four publishers and two owners.

Sally, the Romanian Tourist Office owns a bunch of URLs, including one for an office in Australia, but there isn't actually an office or website for some of those URLs. Here are our choices: http://www.romaniatourism.com/contact-us.html
