    GATZ!

    I smell a road trip coming on upon the annoucement of a date.
    Party at the reception!

    WOOT!

    Congrats, but can she cook?
  • UlricT - Friday, December 19, 2003 - link

    hey... congrats man! This is truly going to be a life-changing experience for you!

    I just hope your life does not change so much that you are kept away from the hardware scene... and all of us :)

    Iron City Congratulations!
    I got married three months and six days ago, and it was the best day of my life. It is truly a blessing. For all you've done for the community, I'd pitch in 10 bucks, and I think we could get few 100K people to match that. We could really help you have an incredible wedding... please create a gift site! I hope happiness follows you both for eternity.

    #79 that has to be the most messed up thing I have heard in a long time....I hope some of Anand's buddies hack the shit out of your computer for that......
  • Soumaxeridis - Thursday, December 18, 2003 - link

    Congratulations!
    I wish you a happy and healthy relationship (and marriage)

    can i bang her
  • Creig - Thursday, December 18, 2003 - link

    Congratulations Anand. I wish the two of you the best of luck together. Although you may have nice logical computers figured out, women are a WHOLE different matter. And marriage multiplies that by a factor of four. :)

  • Cara - Thursday, December 18, 2003 - link

    YAY!!!! Now let's see some pictures! I think a wedding webcast will be in order. :) Soooo happy for you both! This is an amazing time your lives. ENJOY!

    Congrats from Virginia Beach, VA Anand! As for me, I've just turned 17 so i've got a good long while before I even *think* about getting married :P If your wedding is going to be in Raliegh I wouldn't mind driving down to be there in person :-D

    -May God bless you and those you love the most
  • peetu - Thursday, December 18, 2003 - link

    Congrats from Bulgaria, Anand. Be joyful and embrace the new challenges and joys. Not so easy to analyze them as comp. stuff but that's probably the beauty of it and of life.

    Cheers to both of you!

    Congrat's on your Wonderful news..
    I appreciate the informations and solutions provided your you and your org. over the years..
    I wish you well into the future with your new-found love. I do hope that your relationship does not end up like a typical California Relationship.
    Short lived, emotionally terrible, lacking in support, and eventually ending in misery..
    Although I am sure this wil not happen to you since you do naught live in California,, and therefore it cannot poison your relationship..
    I wish you all the best in your future..
    I wish I could be invited to the weending, that woudl be a sight to see.. But, because I am not apart of your "inner circle" I understand, that this cannto happen.. although it Would be nice..
    Best wishes and many hopppppy returns,

    Gk.

    Tillykke med det!

    ... It's Danish, and yes, you guessed it... It means congratulations.

    note to self: that was cheesy... but I meant it none the less.

    Looking forward to my invitation :)
  • GL - Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - link

    Congratulations! All the best and take a very un-Anand-like long rest from work for the honeymoon.
  • Mday - Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - link

    Congratulations. you realize this means you have to invite all the forum members to the wedding.

    ;-)
  • BigBen - Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - link

    #35 - for his money? Maybe you haven't read that she is a first year at Yale Law - thats no joke. This girl has a great head on her shoulders and doesn't need or want to use the man for his money. Sometimes people get lucky that the one they love happens to be a good breadwinner. Its a perk, not a reason for marriage - I am in the same boat! :-D
  • Big GUy - Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - link

    Make sure she isn't using you for your money.
  • uncjigga - Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - link

    WOOWOO!

    For those of you that don't know Vinney (99+% of you here), she truly is an amazing girl and the perfect one for Anand :)

    Congratulations bud!
  • Beau - Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - link

    Hey Congrats man! I just got married in September, and it's the greatest thing I've ever done.

    Just a suggestion, but since you've got such a huge following, it'd be fun to let everyone watch it. I posted a video of my wedding, and 3 months later, I still have 9 or 10 people download it daily. (http://www.priceyoursite.com/wedding)

    Anyway, congrats again.

    Like #7 said, is there a date set yet? We all need time to plan a wedding gift. [Let's see... couple million readers, each one chips in a buck. We've got some cool gift potential...]
  • GTaudiophile - Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - link

  • GTaudiophile - Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - link

    Congrats, Anand!

    You opened your Christmas present early I see...
  • Ecmaster76 - Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - link

    Happy (my) birthday!
    Its great to here that, Anand. You'll be out of college soon, with the beginning of your own family, a degree, and a successful business (hobby) to boot.
    It sounds like your life is true happiness.
    Good luck!
