The wife is now an engineer; the "ex" is a prosecuting attorney (ADA). She's still psycho too. | |

| Re: How did you meet your significant other?
I'm not married, however my boyfriend and I had our first "date" in court. I live in a small town, and everyone who has court is required to appear at 9am on Tuesday and sit in the courtroom waiting for their name to be called. We ran into each other on the way in. I was there because of a vandalism charge my ex boyfriend pinned on me, and he was there because he had been picked up for D.U.I.
Being a bit of a troublemaker growing up, I had been to court before, so it wasn't a big deal. He hadn't and was worried he was going to go to jail. So sat next to him and held his hand. Afterwards, he took me to lunch.
We met through my sister, her husband, and a friends boyfriend. Turns out my sister graduated high school with my boyfriend, and her husband, my boyfriend, and my friend's boyfriend played Magic the Gathering together every Friday night.

Before that, I had Compuserve on a 300 baud. And then Dad brings home this thing called "Prodigy"...

Had to shut it off when "The A-Team" and "Riptide" came on, though.

LOL...you all are giving me a chuckle. The funny thing is, I was probably your age or older during those years. I remember signing on the internet when there were maybe 20,000 people online. There was the first online community started by some hippie deadheads called "The Well" based in Sausalito, California. I was there! Live and in Living DOS  Then I started hanging around these folks and started crunching what was to become HTML...damn, I'm old.

I tried, though. But by 1987, it was already pretty damned crowded, so I limited myself to the BBS communities in Atlanta.

| Re: How did you meet your significant other?
I met my wife in college. I dated her roommate first, but my eyes were secretly on Blythe (my wife). The roommate and I fizzled out quickly, then she graduated. For my senior year, I moved into my own apartment and noticed Blythe outside one day. She had moved into the apartment building directly across the street from mine. We hadn't seen each other in about a year. We started talking, and the rest is history. That was in 1996. | |

He lasted 3 years there and then moved on to a better airline that treats him with respect! | |

We met on the inter-web (as doug calls it) back in the early 90's when browsers didn't even HAVE images!!
now a days, there's more than technogeeks on here, so you gotta be careful. | |
