What, she has breasts? I never got up past the legs. Hers or Bill’s, take your pick, best pair in skirts I’ve seen in a longtime.

Sweetie, **thinksnow** was driving, not **Shibb**. So he had no reason whatsoever to be checking the mirror at all. Heh.

Well, I totally wasn’t even in the front seat, so I don’t have any excuse at all for looking down her top.

Happy anniversary, doll!

Happy Anniversary to a kind, smart, and funny lady, whose friendliness and sense of humor encouraged me to get to know many good Dopers better. **Geobabe** and **UncleBill** , I wish you both much happiness! May you eat Saltine crackers and Easy Cheese together in good health for all the days of your lives! 🙂

Your Hermit Friend,

Creaky B.

Congrats to **Geobabe** on her two years here! Besides being a great contributor to the board in general, being one that is also a fellow Geodoggie (to borrow a term from **Ringo** ) is simply an enormous plus!

**UncleBill** is very lucky–I’ve always been very attracted to GeoWomen, which is why I also married one!

(All that… _and_ I get my first-ever sig credit! I’m simply floored!)

I had been meaning to use it for a while, but I use my sig so rarely, it took me a while to get around to changing it. Thank you for giving it to me!

By the way, **Shayna** , you’ll appreciate this: when we met **Ed Zotti** at ChiDope, Bill and I thanked him on behalf of all the couples who have met through the SDMB. It wasn’t intended as a matchmaking service, but it’s turned into quite a good one!

Congraulations on your posting anniversary, **Geobabe** 1 It is truly a milestone, and I hope to get to know you better. Never mind that I haven’t met either you or **UncleBill** in person (or indeed anyone on these boards); I’m sure you two will be very happy together!

The coding was a true masterpiece, **UncleBill**! I bow down and kneel before the coding master! 😃 (that would be after my salute your coding skillz… whether **thinksnow** helped you or not!)

That simulpost was a thing of wonder, and a joy to behold! Pretty darned funny! 🆒

**Geobabe** , may you enjoy many more years on this board!

Will **Geobabe** be retaining her maiden name, adopting her husband’s last name ( **GeoBill** ), or hyphenating ( **Geobabe-Bill** )?
