Crazyincanda, you mention walking your dog. What about taking your dog to a dog park? Maybe there are other dog related events in your area. I've seen flyers for road races with your dog and a few other things (not having a dog, I don't tend to pay attention to them, so I can't be super specific).
And I have a side question. For those of you who have tried meetup... How'd you get the nerve up to go to the first one?

I agree there was no need for that 'man with no friends'. Fine if you don't want friends but don't insult people who are trying to help. I talk to 'randoms' all the time. In the supermarket, in the street, on here wherever. Obviously not in a crazy way and if i get no response i just leave it. But some you end up having a nice chat with and who's knows you might see em again.
I've joined the local camera club and yes it does take a certain amount of nerve to go to the first one. But whats the alternative.? Last week someone said something to me to almost cause me not to go again. But i went weds and enjoyed it, so i'm not going to cut off my nose to spite my face.
