I rarely post things here about my personal life, sticking instead to things related to this site’s content, plus the occasional rant, opinion, or experience that I figure might be of interest.
But I decided to make an exception in this case because, as Lisa has already mentioned in her blog, we got engaged. Now of course everyone’s dying to know when the Big Day will be, and all that, but it’s only been a couple of days, so we’re still hammering out the details.
On the one hand, getting engaged solved some problems - questions about dating and the relationship aren’t much of an issue now, but they’ve been replaced by plenty of other questions about the who, what, when and where of the wedding. Crazy. But in a few months we’ll be able to move on from getting married to being married, which was the whole point anyway.

Every time I think about your engagement I start smiling. You have six new nephews who are thrilled about Uncle David (three of which can’t wait to meet you…) We’re all so, so happy that you and Lisa are getting married. Welcome to the family!

Nicely written. Glad you made an exception. Perfectly done. Best blog on the web. I know I’m biased…especially when you encourage people to read my blog, too…is this the beginning of a His and Hers blog? Love you!

David, Marianne and I are very much looking forward to welcoming you full-time into the family.
Hasta luego, Pa Hacken
P.S. I’m really quite shocked that you, as a legitimate programmer, would consort with someone (Lisa, for example), whose maiden name is a German verb meaning “to hack.”

Congratulations!
The name Lisa works well historically, given David’s Macintosh love: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Lisa

Well, when you guys find a date be sure to give plenty of planning time for the Bachelor party. Hmmm… wonder if we could get Optimus Prime to jump out of a cake.

Hi - I’ve been continuing development in a UT game type called Siege. I’ve been attempting to get CTF4 working with it. I have seen Siege and CTF4 work together before so I know its possible. Upon running CTF4 it seems to work (the initial spectator few secs show a normal game), but once the game starts the server crashes. I wonder, could you please drop me a little note? Would be good to hear from another UT mod developer.
Kind regards
David Heiland
