i took her hand, looked deep into her eyes and said "look, in spite of what other people keep telling me, i think you are good enough - here is your ring and by the way, where's my dinner?"

honestly, there was no ceremony. we both wanted to be together forever and we both knew that. we saw no reason to cheapen our relationship and what we have by hiding rings in a desert and pretending the moment is a surprise.

.... and if it is a suprise... then its far too early to consider marriage. its not exactly like bringing home a kitten or something.

She's a very fine looking woman.

Though she may need to have someone take a look at that ooogly thing growing out of the left side of her head

Power to you! Nice sentiment, JR.

And btw, you look like Matt Damon in the Bourne movies.

When was the last time you had your glasses checked.

Trev, apparently long before you went totally blind.

... Sorry, JR! Hey you look better than me!

DUDE!

It may be the hair that makes it work for you... but JR ain't looking like Matt D to me... but then my eyes work.

that was me at 190 and 16-17% bodyfat. today i am 250 and about 20% bodyfat. hopefully, by march i will be able to get back down to around 12-15% and see signs of my abs again

my wife is a vegetarian mostly... so when she starts cooking, i shrink to nothing.

When I propose I will show up on a white horse wearing a knights shining armor.

I will get off my horse, get on one knee and say.

...Long live my queen. Please do me the honor of being my wife...

Now this could be a knee bender...

Hopefully she's swooning and not planning to land you with one.

I'm more concerned about having to go the bathroom.

I grew up going to Riis Park in New York, and I remember those single engine planes that fly up and down the beach pulling a sign behind them.

I always thought that might be a cool way to propose...

when i was little... 8 Is Enough was popular and i looked exacty like Adam Rich. it was weird. I was the same age etc and people always wanted to talk to me and take pictures with me. it took me a couple years of that to understand why

Dravyk · 10-12-2005

LOL! Adam Rich ... I remember him.

And why I watched that show at the time, I have no clue. I'll have to blame it on being young and my folks.

MorganGrayson · 10-12-2005

JR...I was so glad that I wasn't the first to say that. I wanted to say it earlier, but hesitated.

"Pop the question" has always struck me as a dumb and dangerous concept. When you are truly ready to marry somebody, the two of you have already discussed it at length.

I don't have an engagement ring. For me personally, it was wrong. First, I don't like diamonds, and secondly...it's too much money. I wanted major appliances!

A much better use for the limited funds. The wedding ring was another story. I thought a plain gold band was fine...my husband nixed that idea. The very first rings we looked at were absolutely gorgeous and I fell in love. My husband said "you're going to have a wedding ring on your finger for the rest of your life. I want to make sure it's exactly the one you want." So...he proceeded to haul me around Louisville, Kentucky, so that we could look at - I swear it felt like it! - every wedding band in town. Yep. We went back and bought the very first rings we looked at. I got a story out of it as well as gorgeous wedding bands.
