DATING GAME
The Observer asked attendees why they would be a great bachelor or bachelorette.

Frank Maggio: I’m really outgoing, I’m the chair of the Young Professionals Group, and I’m really energetic and friendly.

Ruth Michel: I love to travel, and I just started my career in internet marketing.

Jesse Butler: You mean other than being single and available?

Amy Mosshart and Jamie Overmiller: We’re awesome!

Natalie Mills: I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m too snarky to be a good bachelorette. I’ve found someone who is dealing with it pretty well, so I don’t want to mess it up.

Jaimi Porasik: I’m nice, and I smile a lot.

Amy Kowalski: Duh, I’m awesome!
