My Singles Ad…

Occurs to me, I pay several sites to post this no reason not to post it here as well. You never know…

I’m better when part of a couple… Are you?

Wouldn’t it be nice to make that last and lasting connection? These ads are a shot in the dark that truly needs a hit of magic, dose of fate, hint of synchronicity… Especially these days.

I moved to Massachusetts after 52 years in California! I’m looking for that last partner to share travel and adventures, music, cooking, walking our dogs. Relocation is not an option for me, its a requirement – be that on the East Coast or even a return to Northern California or… I’m more than open to finding that last connection wherever it may be or takes us.

We’re both likely omnivores, fond of a good Pinot or Margarita. Music feeds us. A Deadhead would be an amazing bonus! We have bucket lists of places to visit and ones to see again whether that is Cuba, Paris, Tuscany or…? We might even find that we share interests and have been within smiling distance before and passed remaining strangers. Perhaps time to change that.

Me, 77 (I’ll likely never act it. Or shoot it in golf), creative, spiritual, bright and engaged ex-musician that goes to lots of live music. Add a passion for photography, travel and exploring (usually see the gas as half full), golf and more. Liberal. Dog person. Nice guy. I used to say as most of us do that I look younger than my age but its starting to catch up and I’m working on changing that “high side” of about average weight brought about by comfort eating. An ex would say I made anything seem possible. What she didn’t realize is that “we” made everything seem possible. I’d like to have that again. Where each of us thinks we are the lucky one…

You are spontaneous, bright, liberal, adventurous and looking for that last bond. Tell me about you and the dreams you still believe…

Alltown Fresh-Updated

UPDATE: 1/23/25

Alltown never replied to my inquiries and I am now realizing just how difficult it is to avoid supporting companies that contributed to the election of this president. I renewed my membership with Alltown Fresh.

Now, I will still boycott those companies like Nestle that truly rape this planet with little concern for all life. Or companies that blantantly lie and take advantage of their captive customers. But alas, cannot avoid all and I think Alltown does enough with quality and style to “pardon” them and rejoin.

Slightly edited from message sent to Alltown via Web Page Contact and my posting at Facebook.


Alltown

I go to a local chain I love called Alltown Fresh. Best quality convenience store I have ever seen, fresh, chef cooked in front of you healthy, organic and quality food. Great coffee with best machines I have ever seen that grind beans for each cup. Top Tier gas at decent pricing. Good Rewards Program. and a decent car wash. What’s not to love? In fact I go out of my way with a 20 minute 5.7 mile trip (each way) to the closest location near me.

It appears from what I have read that Exxon Mobil has contributed to Project 2025. Alltown, or parent Global Partners. is a refinery and their gas is Exxon Mobil. I just sent this:


Hi folks,

I LOVE Alltown Fresh. I think it is brilliant and well executed idea and business model and I support you in every way I can as often as I can. I have come this close to buying stock.

I learned today that Exxon Mobil contributed to Project 2025. I would like to know your involvement with same. I’m afraid if you did as well or as part of Exxon Mobil I will have to curtail my involvement with Alltown and Global Partners.

You, of course, are free to do as you see fit. BUT, to give you a taste of my dedication, I buy NOTHING associated with Nestle or Pepsi products or Chik-Fil-A or Hobby Lobby. When politics invades a product I love, I reluctantly leave them behind. You will be the hardest to abandon.

Appreciate your reply.


I truly hope they are not supporting Project 2025. Will update this post when I receive their reply.

Update: Took about 3 days and several attempted methods to contact Alltown before they replied with “…thank you for your message. We appreciate you as a customer and are happy to hear that you love our store and all it’s offerings. We will pass your message along to the correct person. Thank you.

That was 3 days ago and no further contact. No reply is itself a reply.

I shall wait another 3-4 business days and reach out one more time.

Update July 18, 2024: Sent the following and closing the issue:

I have not had the courtesy of a reply to my message here and also sent through Messenger in FaceBook. Not even a “this is not something we discuss with the public”. Ghosting. Message copied below.

Consequently I must assume you do support Project 2025 as no reply is a reply.

Tomorrow morning I shall close my account here. Unsubscribe. Remove your app and reluctantly never do business with Alltown again. Sad. I shall also post on social media my experience with this subject so my friends may be aware of what I suspect to be your position as well as the lack of your reply other than a Messenger “thanks for the kind words – we will forward to the appropriate person”.
