    Very funny. If we are down in the Chicago area (Naperville) visiting her folks I will have to look you up. That way I can properly 'thank you' for all your comedy gold. I remember you mentioning you had a bit of the Maker's Mark lower proof. I am going to miss the Whiskey Fest in Chicago this year, but I might make it next year if you care about that sort of thing.

    Thank you for the words. I'm missing it this year, too. I will try to go next year.

      I'm not overly active on the boards and pop in from time to time to share an opinion or get into a debate with the locals. However I had to share, because I am quite happy about the following. Finally popped the question to the SO over the weekend and she said yes! It only took 5 years of being together. I figured it was ample time to sort out most of the bugs in the architecture. Now deployment to prod is a little over a year away, but already working on those plans. Only a few more thousand :omg: dollars to go and everything will be paid for.

      SUCKER I mean Congrats man! 20 years this June for me, I thinks its been mostly worth it. :-D

      Treat stressful situations like a dog, if you can't eat it, play with it or screw it, then just piss on it and walk away. Be careful which toes you step on today, they might be connected to the foot that kicks your butt tomorrow.

        Congratulations. Although be careful, if she reads your analogy she could change her mind.

                Is that a typically inaccurate developer's estimate, because it looks like it may never happen. ;)

                  Congrats. Having had lots of experience, being married is a good thing. Best advice I've heard is "Go into marriage with eyes wide open, stay in marriage by keeping eyes half shut".

                    Oh yes, for some it might take much more time in the planning stage, and others might have an early beta release. But I hope he realizes that the boss can always change her mind and he doesn't have a say. It's the biological clock.

                            The boss could try to change her mind. Fortunately modern medicine has made that a little more difficult than just changing her mind. :-\

                                    Most people assume the same, so no worries. It was actually before she met me, so fortunately meeting me wasn't the reason which convinced her never to have kids.

                                        IMO it makes sense to have at least one kid, and THEN decide... even if you're not a fan of other people's kids doesn't mean you won't thoroughly enjoy having a child of your own. Granted it's a big commitment that you can't undo. But billions of people have done it - it's not that hard is it?

                                          I'm not overly active on the boards and pop in from time to time to share an opinion or get into a debate with the locals. However I had to share, because I am quite happy about the following. Finally popped the question to the SO over the weekend and she said yes! It only took 5 years of being together. I figured it was ample time to sort out most of the bugs in the architecture. Now deployment to prod is a little over a year away, but already working on those plans. Only a few more thousand :omg: dollars to go and everything will be paid for.
