Daughter ask this at supper one night.

"I was at Riverside (grocery she worked at) and had to poop.
Met her coming out as I went in. She had crapped, and the smell was
so bad I spun around to leave, slipped/fell and hit my head.
When I came to, she was leaning over me, and I thought she was an angel."


Girls didn't believe me, wife said I'm full of shït.
But it's a great story!😁😁


She worked with my sister.
It was a blind date, i met her in her parents kitchen.

I met my first wife in my early twenties at a McDonald's that was right by my work. I used to go in there everyday and noticed a new girl workng there turned away from me making a drink that had a nice ass in those tight black pants. She turned around and shot me a huge smile at first sight and I know I did too. We flirted everyday that I went in there for a few weeks, went out on a few dates and eloped in a week. I got two wonderful kids out of her but lost her to an accident a few years ago. My current wife and I have known each other since kindergarten and literally had the same kindergarten teacher and went through school together and never thought a thing about the other but reconnected on Facebook of all places and been going strong ever since.

I am so sorry kaywoodie.

Prayers for her Morewood.

Had to warm up or freeze to death. Car was having engine replaced, ex-wife took the truck. Only thing I had running was a ducati monster. Went down to 7 degrees on the way home from work. She was the manager of the place I stopped at. Main Street Bistro, Springville, AL.

Our fathers were best friends. I used to hunt with her father and grandfather and her grandfather gave me my first real summer job as a kid. We never really knew each other because she was born right about when I was finishing high school but it's a very small town and we knew of each other. Finally, circumstances brought us together, we looked at each other, and that's all she wrote.

Yep. During Covid, China was running a buy 1, get 3 free special. Very popular with the Mormons.

We were both attending the same evangelism event.

1st encounter, did not actually meet, didn't even see her face, that came later........

I was at a HS basketball game, with a co-worker Doug, we were sitting about half way up the bleachers....

This creature, apparently sitting above/behind us, came walking down past us....

I noted to Doug '...that's the best pair of walking away bluejeans I have ever laid eyes one...'

To which he says '...HEY!, THAT'S MY SISTER...'

Introduced a week or so later, began dating a few weeks after, Summer of '74........... married '76, still here.....

PS: I should have had those jeans BRONZED...............

Cruising main street 44 years ago, we were both 18, married at 20 and she still loves me, and puts up with my crazy stuff. She's the very best thing that ever happened to me. I'm a blessed man.
