…See you later!

I don’t know if anyone cares, but I will be away from the board for about 2 weeks. I’m getting married this weekend! Then it’s off to Cancun for a week and a half for our honeymoon. So this thread is a good place to post congratulations, good wishes, attacks on my character, and anything else you’d like to post to feed my rabid egomania. See you in 2 weeks!

Oh, you can see the happy couple [here.](http://www.geocities.com/dougjonz/pics.html)

I’ll also throw in my congratulations.

And once you’ve been married long enough to “know the ropes” I’ll throw in a few condolences. 😃

Wahoo you dog…

Getting Married during Duck Season and Football season??? What greater tribute of your love does she want.

Congratulations and enjoy Cancun. Gazoo and I will hoist one in your honor at Partner’s this Saturday. (Okay we’ll host two, no five…)

Anyway good luck to you and your bride.

Congrats to you and your lovely bride.

BTW, what makes you think that the simple act of getting married and going on a honeymoon excuses you from posting? Get your priorities in order, man!

Veel geluk toegewenst in jullie huwelijk!

(Many happiness wished upon your marriage! Don’t ask, it’s how we Dutch idiots express ourselves)

Your wife has beautiful eyes, Wahoo. Enjoy the honeymoon, and DO get out of Cancun from time to time. Visit the Mayan ruins of Chitzen Iza for example, it’s a 2 hour drive away.

And you’re still the man, maried or not. You played rugby with a decapitated goose. That alone makes you one of the coolest posters on these boards 🙂
