I really should stop reading the New York Times wedding announcements; they're starting to give me ideas. Take this story, for example, about a couple who met through the Teach for America program. They hadn't seen each other for ten years when he looked her up in the Teach for America database and sent her the following e-mail:
Where are you?
How are you doing?
Are you married?
A year later, he proposed to her under the Brooklyn Bridge.

(Sigh. The passive-aggressive implied e-mail proposal. Why do I have the feeling I'll be resorting to you one of these days?)
