MAN PAYING $25,000 TO FIND MATE

ELWYN, Penn. (Wireless Flash) -- Who says you can't buy love? Not Pennsylvania resident Ed Ryder, who is willing to pay $25,000 to the person who can fix him up with "Miss Right." The 34-year-old freelance copywriter says he came up with the idea of a finders fee because he's desperately seeking a good relationship. Ryder -- who looks like John Malkovich with a full-head of hair -- says he's looking for a woman who is loyal, loves go-cart racing and has a curvy figure and straight blond hair. He's even launched a website to broaden his romantic search at www.searchingforher.com -- but he prefers potential mates send him letters so he can analyze their handwriting. If Ryder doesn't find a mate by the end of this year, he plans to travel to Russia to find a bride.
