The Happy Couple met at the Brooklyn Heights Public Library. They bumped into each other in the library's fiction section. The intricate binding of the '100th Anniversary Edition of The Wizard of Oz' caught Christopher's eye. Excitedly, he reached for the book. "How neat," he remarked. "These are W. W. Denslow's illustrations from the first print edition!" Andrew, was in the same aisle and heard this remarkable outburst. Even though he had the last available copy of Frank Herbert's 'Dune,' he dropped the book the instant he heard this stranger's cherubic voice. He turned around and Christopher was still admiring the Denslow illustrations. "What an interesting voice you have," Andrew confessed to Chris, then he mysteriously walked away, disappearing in the library's vast selection of fiction.

Christopher saw Andrew at the library's circulation desk with too many books to read. "This must be fate," he thought. "As strange as he seems, I can't let him get away." With little hesitation, Christopher hurriedly ran over to Andrew. At this point, Andrew is still packing the books into his reusable tote bag as Christopher taps him on his shoulder. "Hey, I'm going to get brunch with some friends after this. Do you want to join?" Andrew, stares at Christopher for a brief moment. ..."I do." ...And the rest is history.
