Missed Connections
Have you seen the section on Craigslist called Missed Connections before? I hadn't even heard of it until recently when this New York artist's illustrations started popping up on some blogs. Missed Connections is where people who have shared a fleeting moment in time with a stranger and didn't seize the opportunity post short descriptions of their encounter hoping that they might find them. Once you get past some of the "Hey, I saw you. You were hot! Yeah." posts, there are some that are really touching, almost poetic, and sometimes hilarious.
