THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
Dear John,
I've been single for a long time. How long? Too long! I have tried dating apps and didn't like them, so I gave up. I recently met a young lady while I was at a gas station. She works there and I noticed that she's almost always there when I stop in a few times a week. We were visiting about a movie one evening when they were not busy. We hit it off and had a fun chat. After about 10 more of these fun conversations, I finally asked her if she ever gets a night off. I told her I'd like to take her to the movies! We have gone on a few dates now and I really like her. When I was dropping her off at her apartment I noticed that she was not comfortable with me going in. I'm cool with that, we're still kind of strangers, but when she opened the door, I noticed it looks like an episode of Hoarders. I'm not sure why, but my feelings towards her have changed a little. Is that bad of me? I'm not sure if she lives alone, or if that's her Mom or Dad's apartment. I just can't quit thinking of that. Do I say something? Is there anything wrong with me for thinking about this? I really like everything else about her. She is always so happy and fun to visit with. I just feel different now for some weird reason. What do I do?

SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
A new survey from DatingNews.com suggests modern singles are putting limits on how far they’ll travel for romance. About 61% said they’re only willing to commute around 30 minutes for a date, while just 12% would travel more than 45 minutes. Experts say the trend reflects burnout, rising costs and people becoming more protective of their time and energy. Relationship experts argue the “30-minute rule” is less about laziness and more about practicality in busy modern lives. While long-distance relationships can still succeed, researchers say they require clear communication, shared expectations, and balanced effort – especially since resentment can grow when one partner handles most of the travel.
BIG SCREEN-LITTLE SCREEN
John Mellencamp, Jay Leno and Whitney Cummings will be among the guest speakers when Bill Maher receives the Mark Twain Award for American Humor during a June 28 ceremony at the Kennedy Center. The center revealed the list Monday in an email sent to members. The announcement also marks a notable change in how the center is identifying itself: The news came from the “Kennedy Center”, not the “Trump Kennedy Center,” a switch that also appears on the center’s website. Last month, a federal judge ruled that President Trump’s handpicked board of trustees had acted illegally when they voted to add Trump’s name to the venue.
Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino have officially started filming the sequel to “Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion”. 20th Century Studios announced that the movie was in production on Monday, sharing a photo to Instagram of the 2 sitting in director-style chairs on the comedy’s set. The back of the chairs read: “Romy and Michele 2.” Sorvino and Kudrow starred in the original as Los Angeles-area women who agree to pretend they’re successful when they travel to attend their 10-year high school reunion. Janeane Garofalo, Alan Cumming, Camryn Manheim and Julia Campbell will also reprise their roles in the sequel, which will be released exclusively on Hulu. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/3xura5nz
FX has released a trailer for the upcoming 5th and final season of the Emmy-winning culinary dramedy “The Bear”. The new season will premiere June 25 on Hulu with all 8 episodes. The Bear will also get a linear airing on FX for the first time. In the trailer, things look more dire than ever for ‘Carmy’ and his kitchen crew, as the clock is ticking, and the money behind the restaurant is running out. Season 5 of “The Bear” picks up after the events of last season’s finale, where ‘Sydney’, ‘Richie’, and ‘Natalie’ learned that Carmy “has quit the food industry, leaving the restaurant to them,” says the official synopsis.

OF THE DAY
18% of us have eaten food that fell on the floor after the “five-second rule” expired.
How would you like to have your house cleaned — for free? AI company Shift is offering exactly THAT to New York City residents — done by professionals — with a catch, of course. Participants must allow the company to record the cleaning process, so the footage can help train future AI-powered housekeeping robots. In fact, the company says the messier the home, the better. Shift calls them “challenging cleaning environments” and says they provide especially valuable training data. They promise to blur sensitive details to protect privacy. The giveaway supports Shift’s broader business model, which pays people to wear cameras while performing everyday jobs and chores. While AI training firms have traditionally focused on office work, companies like Shift are increasingly collecting data on real-world physical tasks.

WEIRD NEWS
A traffic citation issued to a woman in Florida for allegedly holding a phone while driving has been dismissed — at the request of the deputy who issued it. The ticket, given on Feb. 11 in Lake Worth Beach, accused her of violating the state’s wireless communications law. The situation went viral after she posted a TikTok video questioning how she could be seen holding a device in her “right hand” — when she doesn’t have one. A court hearing scheduled for Tuesday was canceled, following the officer’s request for dismissal. LINK: https://shorturl.at/gQMnw
