This is for guys who want to read and talk about mysteries (Sherlock Holmes, Mickey Spillaine, Raymond Chandler, Ed McBain, and more.  Men are busy these days (as are women) but never have the chance to just hang out, talk and "be."  Today men increasingly are networked only by vocation, kids' schools and other gatherings.  This is a chance to not break a sweat, and do much beyond some casual reading and just "be."

    "I'm not a Meetup person, so I'm not sure if this profile is just for the group I'm joining, or more general. Regardless: I live in Alexandria, and I read mysteries along with everything else."
