Certainly not mundane or pointless… … but I thought I’d share that I’m back from my honeymoon, with the new Mrs. Bricker in the process of converting my bachelor pad into a real home – no longer will stacked empty pizza boxes be the room decor _de rigeur_. I’ve mentioned this place, and Pyroto, in passing, but she’s focusing on undoing ten years worth of disaster in the house before venturing on-line. Anyway, just thought I’d share! - Rick ---

Huge congrats Rick. And don’t let her steal all the charm you’ve put into that pad of yours. ---

Sue, Although Pyroto has sapped a lot of time that used to be SDMB’s, I have been hanging out in GQ and chiming in on law questions; my other fora activities haven’t survived… But - it’s great to be back! - Rick ---

Congra-rats, Bricker. Maybe the Missus can help you write a new Bricker Challenge. Even though I haven’t had the time to participate in the previous ones, I love reading the questions. I’ve been waiting for a new one for months. ---

Remember watching football in your underwear, drinking milk straight from the carton, a bathroom that doesn’t spell like chrysani, um, crysamth, uh, _tulips_, not making the bed, and farting whenever you felt like it? Well, forget 'em. Fun’s over. I’ve heard that having a wife does have its good points, though. 🙂 Congrats, Brickers both. ---

Congratulations. All the best in your life and in your marriage. It hasn’t been the same without you (well, I do make a point to read your excellent exigeses of legal issues). And will the next Bricker Challenge be no. 7, or the missing no. 5? I was a rank newbie when the last one came out, but lost SingleDad’s imitation Challenge by a mere 7 minutes (due to being very thorough in my final post), so I look forward to tossing my hat in the original ring.
