I WAS going to suggest getting “virtually married” to the person posting right above me in this thread…

[sub]But then I realized that one of the individuals in question might try to feed me “pink juice” if we should ever meet in person[/sub]

Check out some of the stuff at [http://www.rinkworks.com](http://www.rinkworks.com) - I personally recommend the Dialectizer and Computer Stupidities.

There’s also [http://www.newsoftheweird.com](http://www.newsoftheweird.com) which is often good for a few minutes amusement.

DRY, Black Hole is so phobic about the whole marriage thing (at least when it comes to me, anyway) that I doubt I could convince him to even “virtually” marry me. He is the one who needs the darn pink juice. ☹

Hey, I could VIRTUALLY MARRY Cyndar… it’s just the whole REAL marriage thing that gets me. Besides, I’m only 27. I have my whole life ahead of me to waste. WHY would I want to marry ANYBODY? =)

Oh, I’m sorry! Looks like you’re married **already**! 😛

“No sooner met, but they looked;  
no sooner looked but they loved;  
no sooner loved but they sighed;  
no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason;  
no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy”  
–As You Like It, Act 5, Scene ii

“Ay me! for aught that ever I could read,  
Could ever hear by tale or history,  
The course of true love never did run smooth  
But, either it was different in blood”  
“O cross! too high to be enthrall’d to low.”  
“Or else misgraffed in respect of years”  
“O spite! too old to be engag’d to young.”  
“Or else it stood upon the choice of friends”  
“O hell! to choose love by another’s eye.”

Yeah, you’re pretty cute. But I know this whole routine… “You’ll get everything you want.” Uh huh. Until the “I Do.” Then, EVERYTHING changes. HAH! NO way.

“I swear to thee by Cupid’s strongest bow,  
By his best arrow with the golden head,  
By the simplicity of Venus’ doves,  
By that which knitteth souls and prospers loves,  
And by that fire which burn’d the Carthage queen,  
When the false Troyan under sail was seen,  
By all the vows that ever men have broke,—  
In number more than ever women spoke,—”
