Look, the Zadge has no time for you peeps tonight because she has to jump off to her Match.com date in 20 minutes. And it looks – for a change – promising: 48 year old, 6’1″, athletic, cute divorced dad, with a graduate degree who owns his own company. Hello.
And speaking of jumping, the Zadge was walking in downtown Denver this afternoon when she saw this guy try to kill himself by jumping off a building:
And yes, the Zadge took a photo of it while police blocked off the street and swarmed around him. And yes, she stood and watched to see if he would do it. And yes, she saw him jump and she screamed.
But dude! You are only about 30 feet high! All the dude suffered was a sprained ankle!
So anyway, the Zadge has got to jump, y’all!

I’m sorry the guy was so troubled that he felt he needed to jump and am glad he only suffered a small physical injury. It was most likely a cry for help. Hope he gets it.
As for your date, I am SO HOPING Mr. Match.com is normal and as good as he sounds. I would say I’d wait up for you, but that would be a lie. I’m on Eastern time after all. But, I will be rooting for you and will check in tomorrow for details. Fingers crossed.
Hope the date was a smashing success! Can’t wait to hear how it went!
Poor jumper guy. Glad he wasn’t hurt too badly. Years ago, I was with a friend, downtown, and saw a guy “fall” several stories. After I let out a blood curdling scream, I realized he was a window washer who was tethered to the building. It was not one of my better moments.
30 feet, eh?
Did they only set up one of those exercise trampolines to catch him?
Bah!
ugh jumpers… we get them all the time down here at the Royal Gorge Bridge. And they don’t have a chance once they hit the bottom. It’s so far down in the canyon that all that’s left of them is “sluff” according to the local newspaper.
Can’t wait to hear how Mr. Match.com was!
Glad the jumper wasn’t more seriously injured.
Sounds like we could have a match.com winner?
If the jumper’s that guy on the little balcony thingy, he couldn’t have been serious. Regardless, I hope he gets the help he needs. My daughter lives in San Francisco. Hello Golden Gate and Bay Bridges. Talk about jumpers.
P.S. Please regale us tomorrow about your cute date. Hope it’s smashing, but not like jumpers.
Every time I hear JUMP! I think of that Van Halen song.
I can’t wait to hear about this date it sounds super promising!
Hope the sprained ankle guy gets some help.
My informal survey of my single friends would indicate that divorced is probably more promising than never been married at our age. Fingers crossed.
GOOD LUCK on your date. If he’s worthy of you it will be his lucky day.
I was going to say, if the dude is attempting suicide he needs to climb up a few more stories. Poor soul, he’s crying out for help.
Hope the date went well.
Squeal! I hope Mr. Match was worthy of you.
I think 20 feet can kill you.
I’m so mean. Because my first thought is “what a pussy, he’s not even that high up”. But then you sort of agreed with me and I didn’t feel bad. Maybe the policemen signed his cast.
