Star Trek or
The Green Lantern was his favorite Superhero.
But he was funny . . . and interesting and friendly with lots of different kinds of people. He had a curiosity about new things. He made a really great best friend. He was a terrific listener and didn’t mind my ‘Suzy Homemaker’ hobbies. You can see why we were far from being a fashionable couple. He continued to study computers and math. Even so, he was never boring. His enthusiasm for even what seemed like mundane things was contagious.
tosses off technical terms nonchalantly as if I might know what the heck he is talking about and leaves me dazed when I asked him to explain how the computer works. He gets a kick out new gadgets and the possibility of futuristic devices.
He likes solving computer problems. But best of all, he still makes me laugh. He’s still my best friend and he’s still a geek, but geeks seem to be quite the fashion these days. Finally, I think I might be trendy.
Happy Anniversary Babe!

So contagious that marrying him seemed like a really great idea. Not only that, I loved him fantastically. So that’s what I did.
And I can tell you this guy hasn’t changed much. He still looks at a slide rule with a sense of nostalgia,
