Anyone tried it? It's when you arrange to meet at a public place and there are about 10 men for you to spend a quick five minutes with each. You go from table to table doing quick little meetings. Then I think you go home and check online to see if any of them are interested in seeing you again. Have you heard of it?

Down here we call those family reunions? What?

Oh peeshaw, I was only joshn'...I haven't tried it. I doubt they have anything like that around here. Especially for us old coggers...heck, by the time we got back home, most of um would probably be listed in the orbits. What?

Okay, okay...I'll take it serious......................(teehee)..........

Heck, 10 minutes! That's longer than some of my relationships last!

Seriously, It seems like a cattle call to me.

Yes, I have tried it and as long as you are in the mindset that it's for fun and not to meet the partner of your dreams, it can be a hoot. Of course, filtering out the lies and exaggerations in 5 minutes is difficult, but an interesting challenge. I wouldn't do it again (at least I hope I never have to), but it was a bit was an interesting experience.
I have also done on-line dating. But that's another story.
