Beautiful true story
« on: September 17, 2006, 08:35:14 pm »
Don't exactly know why I keep checking the NYT's Wedding and Celebrations page. It's not as if I'd know any of the happy couples, since I live on the west coast, but some days the cynical side of me is silenced, and the romantic and hopeful is rewarded.

Thanks for the post!  There is not nearly enough good news in the world, so it is nice when people take the time to share it.  cheers -- Alec

That is beautiful.  And if their ties are an indicator, they play for opposite teams politically - all the more heartwarming. :)
