Sadly that is not even the first time I have heard of a parent and their child's spouse 'meeting' through the internet.

Well, the name is actually "Escape". But at this point it's pretty much become "the pina colada song".

LOL. Can't say I ever knew it had another name.

If I were young and trying to be on the market, guys who enjoyed getting caught in the rain would be deemed a dumbass and dropped from consideration.

My understanding is that he originally titled the song "Escape". However, at the urging of his record label, he reluctantly re-titled it "Escape (The Pina Colada Song)".

Pina Coladas? Si. (especially with a tilde over the n).
Getting caught in the rain? F*cque that sh!te . . . (that would be a "No".)

(i almost said: "Absurd Internet Hookup Story?" . . . How about CoxComm at $180-plus a month for The Noob Price of $77. (yet, i opted for the other jape instead. =)
