**Maureen** and **if6was9** Wow, very cool! I guess I’ll have to rescind the semi-proposal to **Mo** and just stick to playing the Movie Game with her then. ---

Congratulations **Maureen and if6was9!** That was one of the coolest proposals I’ve been witness to! As for my own invitations to virtual matrimony–I’m in. But just as **swampy** still gets the burly men bearing beer and cookies, I get the brawny men, with or without the beer. And for clarification-I only smoke when I’m gambling and drinking after 2 am. I wouldn’t want people to include smoking in a list of my vices–my vices are much more interesting than that. Is it just me, or are we starting to look like a Robert Heinlein plot varient? A serial, line, generational, open, multinational, transdirectional, polydimensional internet marriage. All we’re missing is Lazurus Long. ---

Yeah, \*\*kitten \*\* already rubbed it in my face that she’s above me in **harmless** ’ pecking order. ☹ I just may have to rethink the whole “joining the harem” idea. 😛😛😛 ---

Congrats **Maureen** and _if6was9_\*! I see **bumba** has gotten into the spirit of things asking to borrow the credit card already. 😛 I’m all excited over all the acceptances to my proposal so far. I proposed to **Shibb** but it appears he is rejecting me. All the more beer and cookies for me then! 😃 Oh, **vunderbob** , burly huh? 😉 and dangit he’s straight but he does have beer and cookies, so that helps make up for that. ---
