Home: Roanoke Age: 26 Sign: Pisces Occupation: Financial adviser at Morgan Stanley School: Earned a bachelor's in business administration with a concentration in finance from Roanoke College. About Josh: A motivated, outgoing, well-rounded golf fanatic who's committed to the well-being of the Roanoke community. General interests: Fishing, skiing, socializing and basically anything that involves the outdoors. Where you're most likely to find him: When downtown, he frequents Cornerstone Bar and Grill, Metro and Billy's Ritz. Otherwise, you may spot him at 419 West or at a friend's cookout in South Roanoke.
Josh's routine when he goes out: He's usually accompanied by the same two or more friends, and at least one person in the entourage is equipped with a camera phone. How long he's been single: Nine months Pro of single life: You have more free time to spoil yourself and you don't miss opportunities to meet new people. Con of single life: The occasional weekend night when you don't feel like going out. Whom he'd like to meet: A young, motivated, high-energy athlete with an affinity for early mornings. Nonsmokers who think the glass is half-full fit the bill. How he rates Roanoke's single life on a scale of 1 to 5: 4
Why? Although young people aren't exactly flocking to Roanoke, Josh is still a big fan of the Star City. There may be more to do in cities like Charlotte, Raleigh and Atlanta, but he thinks of Roanoke as a modern-day Mayberry. The cost of living's reasonable and it's clean and surrounded with beautiful scenery. Best date in Roanoke: A canoe ride at sunset on Carvins Cove. Fall is the ideal season for the short paddle; a bottle of wine and good conversation is essential. Worst date in Roanoke: A date with a smoker is the worst-case scenario. How to approach Josh: Just walk up and say hi. Want to talk to Josh? E-mail roanokes_most_eligible@yahoo.com or call 981-3352 and we'll hook you up.
