hey, for those of us newbies who don’t know exactly what’s going on, could you 'splain how/when you two got together? I’ve been hanging around for a while\*, trying to figure it out, but I haven’t been able to. You can email it to me, if you like.

And **Rasa** , you’ll love California! I spent the first 18 years of my life there. Have fun driving…  
\*[sub]therefore, I already kinda feel like I know both of you, even though we haven’t been introduced or anything. That, and I’m just plain nosy. 😃 [/sub]
