Congrats! Only a year and a half for me, but had to wait almost three decades to find her again from the high school crushes. Strangely enough, I got HER the Mr. Beer for Christmas, but secretly I probably knew that it would come back into my control.

Thanks everyone! Great day, I made my wife some cornish game hen for dinner. Did not get to brew unfortunately, we were house sitting. But I sure will be brewing tomorrow!

Congratulations. I hope you guys have many many more years together. Funny thing, my wife also bought my first Mr Beer kit also. Actually, she authorized it and I bought it. But now she says since I've become so obsessed with it, she says it's the best investment she's ever made. Says she's never had so much quality time before this alone with her boyfriend.

Belated but never too late...CONGRATS JimH and SWMBO, You both deserve the best and thus each other. Kudos on the first 8 years, the 2nd 3rd & 4th 8's are much easier but still requires 100 % participation from both of you. I shall have a drink or two in your honor (I am also thirsty as well).

Heck, I naturally figured Rick teases me because we're friends here and he knows I like to kid around a lot. If I'm wrong, don't let me know. Ignorance is bliss.
