Once again, our city government has stuck its nose where it doesn’t belong, and in the process dashed hundreds of local women’s dreams of finding true love and an American passport (not necessarily in that order), and likewise chances for 11 middle-aged divorced guys from the state of Washington to score some Azn Honeyz. The ever informative Shanghai Daily tells us:

A few days ago we posted a story called "Desperately seeking ... anyone." It was about a Canadian man named Paul Gillis who had reportedly taken out a personal ad on a billboard in Hefei, capital of Anhui Province, looking for a Chinese wife. Well, we got an email from Mr. Gillis yesterday. Its subject line read "desperation misplaced."

From what we can make out from the small print on the billboard, Gillis is 52 years old and 1.71 meters tall. He is a university graduate who does business in Canada. He is financially secure, responsible, honest kind and non-smoking. He has two children, ages 25 and 29. He is interested in travel, internet, movies and books. He has been an English teacher in Hefei for more than two years. He loves beautiful Hefei, and is looking for a "Chinese lady who understands English." She must be intelligent, pretty and under the age of 45.
