Houston's Missed Connections: Playing to the right Pitch

Last week was , apparently a heavy time for Houston's lovelorn MCers, and some of this week's Missed Connections were completely new to us.

Take, for example, this guy, who wrote out an MC explaining that he is in no way interested. At all. Not even a little:

third coast vball last night

i liked your pants, but i wasn't checking you out like you thought. cool pants, but i'm not interested at all.

Red Porsche Ran Over Mattress on 59&Newcastle

Yes that was a mattress you ran over this afternoon. Some knucklehead did not tie it down. I was your knight in shining - well, maroon - armour. Just thought you might like to know what got stuck under your car. write if you'd like Tom

Is that where our mattress went?

Oy, Tom. Where are you when random crap comes flying at us out of the back of trailers on 59? Can you be permanently stationed on that part of the roadway because we've run over some pretty disturbing things there as well.

It comes as no surprise that much of the MCs posted this week were from this weekend's Astros games.
