My favorite Phoenix-based couple (there used to be more than one I knew) is celebrating the major milestone in Costa Rica, this was according to an e-mail I received from the Radman. I tried calling over a couple weeks ago only to discover his phone number changed the hard way; I had an awkward conversation with the gentleman who now has what I had on file.
Hmm. Tenth anniversary gift…the usual stuff nobody cares about (semi-common metals) or can reasonably purchase (diamonds). Shopping for Rad is relatively easy, I’ve known him off and on for 20 years now. I can almost remember meeting Rad like it were yesterday. Steve brought him by at GDW. He seemed pretty cool. Our friendship ratcheted up a year later when GDW needed some pointers from DG, where Rad was working. Eventually I got a job there. Kim is a mystery for tastes but I have a hunch, she’s cool with whatever Somara and I pick out.
Their kids are pretty cool from the pictures. Their daughter being named Kylie has always made me wonder if Kim and Rad chose it as a reminder of the reception. The only tune I can remember was Kylie Minouge’s comeback hit, “Can’t Get You Out of My Head.” Coincidence? I will have to ask them.
Congratulations!
