Choose wisely

Let's talk about choosing our friends.

Do you want a friend who will tell you when your outfit looks a little strange, or do you want a friend who will also wear a strange outfit so you're not the only weird-o wandering around?

Matt's strange outfit


Matt's college friend Ryan Christiansen


Matt's childhood friend Brian Gill


Do you want a friend who will always watch your back, or do you want a friend who will stick their backside out there next to yours?


Do you want a friend who is honest and true with himself, or a friend who, on occasion, might believe he belongs to an important group of superheroes?



Matt chose these fine men as friends, and great friends they have been. It might come as a surprise, but all of these guys have convinced someone to marry them - and between them there are 16 1/2 future superheroes wandering around (that I am aware of).

I have a piece of advice to share with anyone out there looking for a spouse - choose wisely or you will find you have married someone who sometimes dresses like a superhero and identifies himself as a member of the Giddywamps. And sadly, you will probably be very proud of him!

That is so funny, I was just looking at those pictures yesterday:) They did have some strange fun back then! I have to admit, the pictures make me feel a little nostalgic!
