Milestones, 4.

Today is the protein wisdom four-year wedding anniversary — the fourth year being the fruit (traditional) or flower / appliance (modern) anniversary. So we’ll be having sushi.

The Wedding Anniversary Haiku

When we fell in love
You said, “this feels quite nice, eh?”
And I said, “It does.”

    Who cares?  When do you go back to parroting the day’s right wing talking poings, fucktard?

  2. Marble says:

    *squawk* parrorting right-wing talkpoints *squawk*

    Congrats Jeff. On both the anniversary and the new troll. A female one at that!

  3. Jeff G says:

    Nice, thanks, Linda.  I’ll pass along your wishes to my wife and son.  Then I’ll try to figure out what a “poing” is.

    Thanks, Marble.

  4. Bill says:

    “Indeed?!” Why you’re … is Jeff Goldstein … the Instapundit?!

    And I can definitively say that Jeff doesn’t quite “parrot” anything, least of all “talking points.”

  5. Oh and congrats.

  6. Ed Driscoll says:

    Jeff,

    Congrats to you and yours!

  7. fersboo says:

    Are you telling me there are lists out there that tell you what to buy for your anniversary?!?

    Well, I need to find one before my next one comes along.

    Congrats Jeff.  I’ll toast one tonight, wishing you and the missus to many more.  Whenever I’m asked how long, I always have to count, cause it has felt like forever (it has been 8, and I only know this off the top of my head because we celebrated less than a month ago)

    With regards to you ‘parroting the day’s right wing talking poings ‘, its good I don’t try to use them.  You make less sense to me now than when I first started reading your blog.  I think that was back towards the end of 2001, but of course I can’t remember.

    Regards,

    Fersboo

  8. SarahW says:

    Congratulations!

    True love makes my heart go Poing!

    Must be what she meant.

  9. Silicon Valley Jim says:

    Congratulations to you and Mrs. Wisdom and Baby Wisdom, and wishes for many, many more.  I’ll raise a Sierra Nevada to all three of you this evening.

    Here’s poinging at you, kids.

  10. Tman says:

    May your anniversary be Happy and Poingy!

    Er, ah…..or something like that.

    Really, congrats Jeff, she must be quite the catch….here’s to many more!

  11. It still feels quite nice.  Happy Anniversary!

  12. Rick says:

    I’ll admit to confusion.  As a neo-con caballist in the VRWC, I’ve never received a single “talking poig.” Certainly never one like this:

    Man Michael Moore

    With his hat on

    he’s about five thirty-seven inches taller wider

    than a taxicab.

    Cordially…

  13. bg says:

    Congratulations! Our 3 year anniversary was yesterday. This makes me guess that they’re one day apart by one year because we both wed on Saturdays, right? Of course, only I get to say my anniversary is 6/9.

  14. Jeff G says:

    Of course, only I get to say my anniversary is 6/9.

    Yeah, like that means anything 3 years in… wink

    Congrats to you. 

    And thanks to all who’ve expressed kind wishes.  Especially the missus, who broke blog silence for once!

  15. Chuck in AK says:

    Many hearty congratulations and thanks for the poings!

  16. Chrees says:

    Congratulations.

    I’m wondering if having sushi is surrendering to the fact that you can’t cook with a 5-month old in the house?

  17. BH says:

    Congrats to the two of you and nice poem.

    Linda F., how did you discover the hidden poings?  You’re supposed to be a 30th degree right-winger to even hear of such a thing!

  18. dario says:

    Congrats.

    Sushi in Denver is like eating Rib Eye in Hawaii.  Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

  19. bg says:

    Does it change back at 4 years? Hope so!

  20. A fine scotch says:

    dario,

    As much as it pains me to say it, the liberal asshats (thanks, Rachel Lucas!) here in the People’s Republik of Boulder do sushi right! 

    Check out Sushi Zanmai on Spruce Street. 

    Fantastic!

  21. A fine scotch says:

    Oh, and Jeff,

    Congratulations! 

    I just recently celebrated my -1 anniversary (i.e. T-minus 1 year til the big day).  Can’t wait to celebrate actual anniversaries.

  22. michele says:

    A poing-nant post, Jeff. Congrats to you and the Mrs. This Guinness if for you.

  23. Beck says:

    Stop the presses!  I have found the Poing! And it is good.

    sample:  poingpoingpoingpoingpoingpoingpoingpoing

    poingpoingpoingpoingpoingpoingpoingpoingpoing.

    Well, no, really, that’s why I put a link.

    Congrats, Jeff, and may all your poings (milestones) wing (be) right (happy).

  24. Average Joe says:

    Congratulations to you and yours, Jeff.  As a single man, I envy the happily married. (Please note the adjective “happily”.)

    As for the idea that finding sushi in Denver is odd, I often hear such things here in Brookline, Massachusetts, from people who are eating sushi made from Pacific Ocean fish.

    Finally, I love right wing poings, but talking poings?  Isn’t there are really bad porno movie about talking poings?

  25. Juliette says:

    Don’t ya hate when you troll somebody’s anniversary post and become the running poing of a joke?

    Happy Anniversary, Jeff and Mrs. Jeff!  May there be much poinging going on in your house.

  26. The Sanity Inspector says:

    Bon anniversaire

    Years show what hours didn’t

    Tie the knot anew

    …gawd, but that sucked…

    Oh heck…

    May most of your ups and downs be under the sheets.

  27. Kate says:

    You do realize you married an Canadian spy…?

  28. Jay G says:

    FOUR years? Pffft. You’re still on your honeymoon, for cryin’ out loud… wink

    Congrats, Jeff and Mrs. Protein Wisdom… And Protein Wisdom-ling.

  29. cthulhu says:

    Please add another to the list of people who congratulate you and Mrs. Wisdom on such a milestone.

    There’s only one ‘l’ in that, right? Good.

  30. Rae says:

    *giggle* Juliette-“much poinging.”

    Hey- that is so wonderful!  Happy Anniversary smile

  31. Leslie says:

    Gratz on the anniversary! 

    Also, here is the true story behind the word poing.

  32. I think she meant “poink”, but I’m just guessing.

    Happy anniversary, Jeff.

  33. Congratulation Mr. and Mrs. Protein Wisdom.

    Today is the 21st anniversary for the Sine Qua Non wife and I.  I guess we’re supra-legal now.

  34. …for the Sine Qua Non wife and I…

    There’s a trig joke in there somewhere.

  35. Slartibartfast—several, in fact, but decorum prevents me from listing them here.
