MILWAUKEE -- Pick-up lines are a dime a dozen. Even in our great hometown, one line is as cheesy as the next. What gets the girl or guy? We don't know. What OnMilwaukee.com does know is there are ways NOT get the date.

Lines like the following might not be the best if your quest is winning a date in Milwaukee:

• The Brise Soleil is open, baby. Let's fly away.
• Let's go to the Concertina bar and I'll push your buttons.
• Nice Domes.

On Mon., Sept. 9, 2002, the magazine and city guide -- in classic OnMilwaukee.com style -- releases its destined to be a classic "100 Worst Milwaukee Pick Up Lines" list. It's available at:

"We are all looking for an edge when it comes to dating. Our advice may not be the best, but we know what doesn't work, trust us," said Andy Tarnoff, editor and co-owner of OnMilwaukee.com.

The list was compiled by the OnMilwaukee.com staff with help from several local "consultants" and long-time pick-up line users. People are encouraged to read and respond to the list by using OnMilwaukee.com's innovative talk back feature.
