Well well well, don't we just live in a kooky world?

You've heard of Match.com and eHarmony, right?

Maybe you heard the radio spot: "A '57 Cadillac convertible and 700 miles of open highway. What else are you gonna do? Doo-waa-de-da-doo . . . baaaaaaaby . . ." God I love that commercial-mad props.

But anyway back to schedule. The latest online dating service is something called Seeking Arrangement, and it's so super ZANY that I have personally heard six people say "What the…" upon hearing about it.

Seeking Arrangement (http://www.seekingarrangement.com) is a site for those of us who search for a different type of relationship.

People who don't have the time for the typical boyfriend-girlfriend "getting-to-know-you" experience.

People with money.

People who maybe want a little somethin-somethin on the side.

People like this anonymous gent from the Web site's "How it Works" page:

"I love beautiful young ladies, and I am not ready to commit. This website is the perfect Web site for me."

What the… Glad you like the Web site man!

In case you aren't getting the picture, this is a site whose purpose is to match "sugar daddies" with "sugar babies" (mistresses), and engage them in what they called a "Mutually Beneficial Relationship."

The women are benefitted because they get gifts-you know, jewels and stuff. Emeralds. I dunno.

And the fellers, the "sugar-daddies" if you will, get what they can't find in their old, monotonous wives-compassion, youth, killer bodz . . . someone to sit on their lap and feed them cheesecake with their French-tipped fingernails. Like a goombah or something.

Stephan Smith, creator of the web site, claims that in today's world of T.V. shows like "The Real Housewives of Orange County," these types of relationships have lost their sleazy stigma.

"The stereotype of a sugar daddy has changed," said Smith. "No longer is it a guy with a gold chain and a furry chest."
