Why the Sudden Interest?!?

[true story] Normally I am a progressive, but I just assumed my first wife would take my last name. A month before the wedding the issue came up in earnest, and she was balking. For a two day period the wedding was actually off, but then we decided on a compromise. We would compete to see who took the other's last name. If I won, she took mine, and if she won, I took hers. I suggested a sporting contest, a pure physical contest, a (metric)mile running race on the track. At first glance this did not seem fair as the only chick in Chicago at the time, whom I knew of, who was faster than me was Jenny Spangler. So, being a sportman of the fairest order, I agreed to spot her 800 metres. I nipped her after the last turn in the final 50 with a ferocious finishing kick in 4:21. My fastest mile ever (hi coltrane). [/true story]

You married someone who couldn't run an 800 (700?) in 4:21? Weak!
