If your FIRST instinct is not to say yes, maybe you shouldn't get married...

[cyaneyed]

Well we know the streaker is 28, because they said in the previous article. What's the big deal about marriage? Every married woman I've spoken to wishes they never did it. I'm sure they're husbands appreciated the comment.

[fivver]

The woman said he suddenly had the idea to run down the street naked,

If this happens often, I'd advise against buying a home next to an elementary school.

[angstly yours]

"This has been hard." What has?

[CandyT]

So...you can get a permit to carry a gun but streaking can still get you in trouble? Shel Silverstein was right...
"...They're afraid that you might grab it, if if gets within their reach,
And they won't let you show it at the beach!"

-Shel Silverstein, Songs & Stories

[Straw]

For crying out loud! If you have to think that hard about it, don't do it! Cut the poor shlub loose and let him go find someone else.

*zips in*
ahhhhhhh...must...proofread...
Note to cyaneyed: their not they're

*zips out*

Streaking was a lot simpler in the 60's.

[ASK, the CD&AC]

those crazy Ann Arbor...eans...ealisans...etums...Michiganders.

The couple also has been surprised at the attention the case has received. People from as far as Texas, London, Washington, D.C., and elsewhere have written, asking whether the woman planned to marry the streaker.

The power of the Dave Blog!

""Every married woman I've spoken to wishes they never did it.

Cyaneyed, perhaps you should ask more people. My wife would marry me again tomorrow, as I would her.

Dammit... now NOBODY is going to believe I'm a curmudgeon.

You can't hiiiiiiiiide
Your cyan eyes....

[ASK, the CD&AC]

I still believe in you, Lab.

"because of the way he has handled events"

HAR

nuff sed

[jazzzz]

You should not run with pointed objects in your hand. As a guy of the male gender, I can tell you he was.

[Glix]

Is this such a good idea? I mean, what if he chooses to solve all her future doubts in a similar manner? This could be a Darwin Award in the making.

[blurkernomore]

I once ran down the street naked with a guy shootin' at me...but it was for an entirely different reason.

[ceeg22]

the rest of us Michiganders just call them A-squares

[random thunking]

blurk, you've picqued (piqued? peeked?) my curiosity. What was her name? Didn't you know she was married?

[blurkernomore]

rt,
For privacy (and safety) reasons I cannot reveal her name, but she wasn't married. It was her daddy doin' the shootin'.

[Olo Baggins of Bywater]

Cripes, now every sad sack is going to try this.

[Musically Challenged]

If someone has to do this for ANY woman...she is not worth it.

[angstly yours]

Blurk: "daddy", "doin' shootin'", it had to be a shotgun, so how did he miss you, or did he?

[blurkernomore]

Thankfully, he missed. That bein' said, he still managed to get his point across.

[angstly yours]

Good thing you ran. if not, you'd probly have to have married with a little prompting from Ol' Betsy.

[random thunking]

Note to self #1: Only... ya know... with my wife.

Note to self #2: Buy a shot gun before my daughter is old enough to... ya know.

[blurkernomore]

Yeah, my daughter is about to turn 13. I just bought a new 12 gauge over-and-under. Hey, I know what I was like as a teenager.

[angstly yours]

My daughter is 19. I bought a miniture guillotine and kept in prominent displayed. No worries to now - that I know of.

[Mikey]

MAybe this guy is related to Tom Cruise, withtout the couch, that is.

[blurkernomore]

I swear I am not making this up.

I have seven sisters. When they brought boys home dad would take a shotgun shell, write the boy's name on it and put it on the mantle.

[angstly yours]

What a great idea, blurk. Your daddy's a man after my own heart. Think I can start that now?

[kj]

She should definitely marry him...think of the money they'd save on tux rental

[blurkernomore]

Angst,
Absolutely start now. Believe me, it has the desired effect.

[Mad Scientist]

If she thinks this little stunt was really hard to deal with she won't last through the really bad times. Keep on running naked man...

[Nobody]

Lab-
Yup, you're right. I now believe you're a curmudgeon.

HAR! I slay me! :)

[DimWitte]

blurk, et al.,

When I was a teenager and dating, I had a very effective way of dealing with dates who became a little too...friendly. I would give him a quarter and tell him, "Go call my Dad; if it's okay with him, it's okay with me." It worked.

I guess she liked what she saw.
