Lois Wyse, a woman who writes a column for some woman magazine, and has writen a book, and used own a big Madison Avenue Ad agency, was widowed rather young, just as she was starting her company,(she had 2 young children at the time) for a long time, work and kids keep her busy, and she had almost no social life to speak of..

She attended some social function one day, and met an interesting man..they talk, had a glass of wine, and finally she told him "you seem very much like my second husband..." He asked.."how many times have you been married?" and she replied.. "just once."

less than a year later, they were married! i always though her's was a great line!

my kids were always "goops" from the book of manners (E.B. White?)Goops, and How to be One.
