Who's that smart, funny couple who always seem to be enjoying each other's company? They're the ones that met on nerdpassions because neither was willing to settle for less than the best! She's the semi-diminutive wordsmith with a yen for 70's music, good books and travel; he's the guy that some people might have called a geek in high school, but he had lots of potential and now that he's "grown into himself", he has very little to prove. Best of all, they became on-line friends before they started going out, so they got to know each other better than most couples who can't go the distance because the didn't bother to build a sound foundation. He knows her well enough to send something like orange snapdragons for special occasions instead of (hum-drum) red roses, and she gave him the collectors' edition of LOTR on DVD, even though the original books were much better (they agree on this point). Gosh, aren't you glad these two met? They've got so much in common that it would be a shame if they'd never run across each other on-line...

If you're a seasoned traveler on the road of life, go ahead and drop me a line. Conversation is a great way to kick off a friendship, and friendship is an excellent beginning to everything else!
