Yes folks, the greatest romance of the SD is about to happen. Anniz & Monfort are due to meet in about ten days. Thanks to the board. So let’s wish them the best & then bet if Anniz is going to come to the states or is Monfort going to stay in Sweden? ---

So, I guess some of you are sick of us, right??? I should probably been that too if it was about somebody else. And to who will stay where or go where, I tell you, no one knows, except if Bush wins.😉 ---

Anyhow. After seeing this thread, I actually started to write a very tasteful little story about a hypothetical **Monfort-Anniz** meeting, set to the same tone as _Casablanca_, but I thought it would just end up being taken the wrong way. I still think at a minimum the two of you guys should take some photos to post to the Board having fun together, seeing sights, eating out…oh hell, all of those things sound naughty too in the wrong context. I’m outta here. ---

Come on **Anthracite** , I’m sure you got it was a joke from me. **Montfort** said if **Bush** wins he’s going to move to Sweden, joking of course. I’m sure no one thinks he’s going to do anything rash. And yes, I got what you ment. I don’t think I’ve taken anyhting wrong from you lately, I do know I’ve done that in the pass and not getting that you’re joking. I think your one of the good people here and I hope you know that.:)🙂 ---

And, yes, if Bush wins, I’d be more inclined to move to Sweden than if Gore or Nader win. It’s still too early in the game to make any predictions on that, but I’m amused by the bet idea. I’ll gladly accept bribes. 🙂 (Am I the only Doper who doesn’t see the resemblance between **Anniz** and Jodie Foster? Both are lovely, but so is Halle Berry, and Anniz doesn’t look like her, either.) ---

So, if I’m understanding Mon **T** fort correctly, if a president is elected here that doesn’t tax him at an appropriately high level, he’ll go to some other country and get too much of his wages taken away from him by the government. ---

I don’t mind high taxes at all, they keep my country safe, my streets paved, my grandparents socially secure, and helped me get a fairly decent public school education. But, this ain’t GD, so I’ll shut up. And, there’s only one capital letter in my username. ---

Is it just me or does anyone else try to read Anniz’s posts as if they are sonnets? 😉 ---

Maybe Anniz is a sonnet? Yes, at the least, Montfort with a T, you must post pictures & lots & lots of them for us all to see. Im not familiar with the Visa requirement betwixt the two countries… ---

It was one where she was looking up at the camera in a certain way, and I think she really did resemble her in that one. Pictures since then have shown that she is, in fact, both different and better looking than Jodie Foster. But it made for an amusing scenario, Mr. Hinckley… [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/anniz-meets-monfort/40031.md?page=2)
