« Another Marathon ... Only Faster | Main | Happy New Year » December 30, 2005Marnie n' Gary, Sittin' In A Tree
Gary popped the question in a pretty cool way: Marnie had just returned from a trip to Napa, and the he invited her to play a game of "Life" to unwind. So they're sitting there, spinning the wheel and moving their cars along the board, until Marnie gets to the big "STOP AND GET MARRIED" square. Gary promptly picks one of the blue "guys" from the box, puts it in her car, then pauses and furrows his brow. "Oh, wait," he says. "This might work better." And produces the ring. (Gary, you are a stud. Seriously.) They're tyin' the knot in 2006. (And Marnie: please, please, please don't schedule the wedding for the weekend of October 8...) Way to go, you guys!

Posted by: marnie at December 30, 2005 1:47 PM Thanks for the good wishes, Gavin! The letter-writer-to-the-editor in me must speak up, however: you got some of the proposal events out of order. But no worries; this weekend Marnie might write up something for our site. Thanks for the popular coverage -- now we're famous! :-) Posted by: Gary D. Cannon at December 30, 2005 1:50 PM Congratulations to Gary and Marnie. I proposed to my lovely bride nine years ago tonight on New Years Eve. Wow, time's just flying by (and I'm getting old).
