Our church has no bells.
I'd start a poll, but it's not really worth trying to figure out. Anyway:

My 20th HS reunion is Sunday and I've been invited to a cookout on Saturday with the guys with whom I played football and basketball and their wives/girlfriends/etc. So far so good. I went to a very integrated school and there were only a couple of us who played ball who were white. Hence, it is almost assured that the Next Mrs. Rugby and I will be the only white folks at an old school, dirrty south, throw down, crunk-tastic cookout. The question, then, is whether I inform her of this in advance or just roll up and let her find out for herself. I really don't think she would have any problem with it, but it would definitely be a surprise. Is the joke worth the drama?

If she wouldnt have a problem with it, why would there be drama? Does she have no idea where you went to high school? Never seen your HS yearbooks? You don't talk about your HS sports years at all? What I'm getting at is, I don't understand how she would be, by now (marrying you soon and all) at all in the dark about the ethnic mix of your alma mater.


Otherwise, speaking as a female, we don't like those kinds of surprises. That crap ain't funny.

I'd put "Soul Man" on a repeat loop on her iPod for a week.

Oh, wait too late for that.

Just tell her - if you want a cute intro, ask her if she has ever been to an authentic "soul-food" cookout. Better yet, just tell her straight up - honey, you know that reunion thing, I may be one of only two male Caucasians there.

Go out and get her some FUBU gear and some hair extensions and tell her she needs to wear them to the party. Tell her this week that you would like her to start using the phrase "oh no you dittent" and to use the word "girlfriend" more often. But don't tell her why
