Will you marry me? Fuck yeah!

When you have two kids (a kindergartener and a 1-year old) at home, your options for New Year's Eve partying are limited. So we settled for watching the KING5 Seattle Space Needle fireworks celebration. The fireworks stopped because of a computer problem, but the best part of the show came shortly thereafter. Several couples got engaged live on the air with a crowd watching and "whooo"-ing behind them. A young man got down on bended knee and proposed to his fiancée; after she accepted his proposal a watcher in the crowd shouted an enthusiastic "FUCK YEAH" which was heard on live broadcast. For me that made up for not being able to go anywhere to party the night away. Looks like someone captured this and posted it, which is why the internets are the blessings of God.
