As a lot of you probably know, I've been dating Alicia for almost two years now. Originally we started out with a long long distance relationship and I would regularly travel ~8 hours (one way) to spend time with her. Thankfully, in April I was able to get a job much closer to her and since my move, we've been spending every weekend together.

On the 4th of July, under the stars and minutes before an array of fireworks blazed across the night sky, I popped the question and asked her to be my wife. She said "Yes, of course!" and by doing so firmly planted a smile on my face indefinitely.

Not everyone is fortunate enough to fall in love with and marry their best friend. I thank God every single day for bringing her into my life. Since you folks have been like family to me over the past several years, I felt the need to share the wonderful news with you all. :-)

#23616 Posted on: 07/07/2003 08:37 AM Hooah!!! Congratulations. Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end. Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity. [URL="http://www.heatware.com/u/4993"]Heat[/URL]

#23634 Posted on: 07/07/2003 10:06 AM Congrats to both of you! As to put some pure egoistic thoughts around, does these news mean to us that a) Alicia will become one of the editors as well? b) 2cpu.com gonna change its "because two is better then one!" slogan to something like "oh man, one is SURELY enough!" c) we will have homepage updated even less often then now? /me suddenly remembers that next spring he has 10 years anniversary. *sigh*
