Kathleen Fent Read This Story

Kathleen, I wanted to do this in this most potentially embarassing way possible, and I figured doing it here and now, in front of a quarter of a million strangers was as good a way as any. I love you more then I can describe within the limits of this tiny little story. We've been together for many years now, and I've known for most of that time that I wanted to spend my life with you. Enough rambling. Will you marry me? Update 15 minutes 30 seconds later: Subj: "Yes", message body: "Dork. You made me cry. :)" Hazah! I'm getting married! :)

    Why don't we make it a new topic. Geeky marriage proposal stories. Or we can even make it simpler call it Geek Love, or Geek in Heat.

    Best of luck Taco. Another single geek down.

    At the next eco-hypocrisy-meeting, count the private jets used to get to the meeting. Should be interesting to see that

    Well, it was your first post. I always wondered what would finally provoke you into it. Now we know. ;-)

    To those wondering, user #570 is indeed Kathleen, according to a page at sarcasta.net (that I admittedly can't find right now). It was along the lines of "I have never posted to slashdot, and I never intend to, so anyone claiming to be me is an imposter. If I ever do post, it will be as user #570"

    Incidentally, I once posted a suggestion in a story Slashdot's owners running out of money that they could always set up a sarcasta ho cam, linking to the "bountiful bosum" picture. It was modded down savagely as Offtopic, by moderators who clearly had no idea what I was on about. Vindicated! Ah hahahahaha! Now we're all going to be panting after Cmdr Taco's squeeze. You lucky, lucky bastard. ;-)
