I asked: “What’s the most romantic thing he’s ever done?”
Her: “Well, there have been many things…”
Him: “What about that time in Geneva?”
Her: “When you were in Baghdad?”
Him: “No, the other time.”Then I asked, “When were you in Baghdad?”
And he said, “Which time?”
“We timed our wedding so we could honeymoon at Star Wars Week at Disney World, then walked down the aisle to the Imperial Death March.”
“I want to be President of the United States.”
“What do you think will be the hardest part about being president?”
“You have to do all your homework.”
I found these two walking arm-in-arm, ever-so-slowly, up a staircase in the subway station. When I asked for a photo, they posed just like this.
“Is this your mother or grandmother?” I asked.
“Oh no,” he said. “I just met her on the train.”

I asked his favorite thing about his son, and he replied: “That he’s very loving.” Hearing this, the boy asked:
“What about basketball?”
The dad answered: “I like that you’re good at basketball. But my favorite thing is that you’re very loving.”
