Subject: Getting Engaged (wtih a word of wisdom from Dr Cuneo)

I thought the attractive title might pull some responses. So, let's be honest: A lot of people have been getting engaged lately. Maybe its the spring, maybe its the looming graduation, maybe its even direct-desire-esque love. Whatever it is, it seems to be spreading. I have a roommate who happens to be a senior and also happens to be dating someone. Recently, upwards of FIVE people have asked "When is ***** getting engaged?" It appears that the fever is spreading, with more couples getting engaged and more people believing that even the person they are talking to might spontaneously get engaged. I have personally been asked twice this weekend if I had just gotten engaged. Everyone suspects everyone, and its only a matter of time before a wedding or some other form of ritual violence is needed to purge this contagion from our midst. Perhaps this is what Dr. Cuneo warned of when he so aptly warned long ago: "Beware: marriage may happen to you too."
