Blind date.
Buddy of mine had a gf that wanted to double date, but had to find someone for her friend. After one bad experience with this......I said hell no. He whined and begged 'cause he didn't have any reliable wheels, so I made him throw in a bag of weed. Married her the following year. 31 years ago. |

High school. She was dating a friend of mine. They broke up on "decent" terms. She expressed interest in me to him. He set us up.

High school. I was dating her best friend. That went south, and she snagged me when I showed interest.

I met my wife in 1995 at the house she shared with her sisters and mom. They came to this country from Vietnam in 1989. A mutual friend introduced us. I had my first taste of Vietnamese food when they served Pho a Vietnamese beef soup. I liked it and had 2 bowels. We got married in 1996 and I have no regrets marrying her. Before we got married I never even dreamed of going to Vietnam but since we have been married we have made 2 trips to her home country. First trip in 2000 we spent 6 days in Thailand, 3 in Singapore and 3 weeks in Vietnam, Second trip in 2006 4 days in Hong Kong and 3 weeks in Vietnam.

Across the street a few hours ago, I asked my neighbors how they met...they been together 32 years....both have ex's.......but no kids of their own...
now they have some krazy southern life stories about them, but so it seems they are all true....too many times told the same tale....if you get the drift.... so anyway, they met over the large truck parts counters from buyer/supplier...on the phone, and so she goes to his parts house to meet this guy she been buying part from for some time.... and the guys say...look for the pissed off SOB with the cigar in his mouth coming through the doors there, with a pissed off look and shouting.... (if you met Bob, you would know).....at any rate she plays cool and they start to date.... so the story goes....HE remembers honking at some kid setting on her father's porch.....as he passes by.... I personally think the story is BS....because how in hell anyone could remember THAT after 20 years....but Bob and to a certain extent his wife admit it could be true....as Bod recognized her folks place when she brought him to it...... life is stupid some daze......this my best recollection of the story as I can give.... WTF...probability....nearly ZERO on that teenage drive by memory....

At the track.
I had just bought my Mercedes 190E daily driver and the transmission was having some trouble, so I figured I should look into some reliable parts sources. Was at the track and saw a group standing by a 190E drift car, so I went over and asked some questions. Instead of parts I found someone to do the work on my car for me. Oh, 3 years later, the transmission is still going strong.
