      Congrats! My wife and I hit 21 this year… though we met in person, in a cage filled with vending machines.

      Crazy to think she has been a contact on almost all of them, at least the main ones of the time AIM/ICQ/IRC/MSN/YAHOO…

          Lol… Nah, there was an area at our high school with a row of vending machines, to keep kids from buying stuff outside of lunchtime they put two big sliding metal grates in front of them with a padlock on it. At lunch they would remove the lock and slide the grates in front of each other a bit and put the lock back on. It left us with a little cage with an entrance on each end.
