On a more serious note... Shannon and I are very touched by the number of well-wishes in this thread. Clutchfans truly is a great community of great people (except the GARM of course) I've met a lot of awesome people via this board and it has made me feel a lot more welcome here in Houston as a whole. Raven - I remember those chats and your advice at the time was spot on. It feels a lot better not having to express my angst by challenging bear-handed young men to chat room rap battles. Cheers.
Congrats, you two! Marriage is a beautiful thing. Yall will make it because you both have a good sense of humor. Very important. That spot you popped the question at looks like the exact same spot I did. Pirates beach?
Congrats! Have any dates in mind? Or, are you waiting for the Rockets schedule to come out first to make sure there are no conflict of interests.

Nice work, Derrick. Congratulations, Shannon! Extra points for ensuring that this thread isn't meaningless.
