How Kyle met Lisa

It all started--about a year ago--on a telnet based talker called "The Dating Game". The first conversation that Lisa and I ever had was about the sale of body parts on ebay.

Yes, it's hard to believe a friendship, and later a relationship blossomed from a conversation about severed extremities, bodily fluids, and online auctions. Although, I'm sure if you know Lisa well, this isn't THAT surprising.

Anyway, soon enough plans were being sorted out for us to spend some time together. I took four weeks off, and braved the 850km(ish) drive to Long Island. I learned several things that night--NYC drivers have no mercy, Mapquest needs to use a larger font, and it's true Belmont Park is on Long Island but it's no where near Lisa's place.

After pulling in across the road, she came walking out simultaneously holding BOTH pant legs (pants were too long for her =) and a cordless phone. Which she promptly handed to me and proclaimed she couldn't carry the phone any longer. Why you ask? When I posed that very same question she answered "because I'm not wearing a bra!"...
