I'm sure I've addressed this, but with two folks asking, I figured it was worth revisiting.SportsFan68 wrote:I second the motion. Er, question.

One of BD's college roommates and fellow cheerleaders had a high school friend heading out to Iraq. The roomie convinced BD and at least one other classmate (can't recall if it was one or two) to go on a road trip to Newport News VA, so that the roomie could see her friend off. The friend brought along some buddies who were also shipping out. FSIL was one of the buds. Apparently he "smelled right" even from that brief encounter, because they kept in touch all the while he was in Iraq, and then beyond. And so now here we are, on the cusp of a wedding.
It's a better story than mine and GW's, who merely met while in grad school together. Still not as good as my sister's, though, which would make her a certainty for the hot seat if she were of such a mind. Sis and her hubby met in a mental institution.

They were social workers there. What did you think?
