Proposal On Stage with Robots

Chicago actress Nina O'Keefe is currently starring in the play Heddatron, which is about a woman who is kidnapped by robots. Her boyfriend, Erik Schroeder, works for a different theater company, but was called on stage for the curtain call because it was his 30th birthday. However, that was just a ruse.
After Sunday's show, Schroeder was called up on stage, ostensibly so the cast, crowd and the robots involved in the play could sing happy birthday, but instead of receiving the birthday song -- and prompted by a robot -- Schroeder pulled out a ring and proposed to his girlfriend of six years (watch video below).

"It was my great grandmother's sister's ring," said Schroeder. "She had to take off the costume ring she was wearing for the play, but I was lucky because it fit perfectly."

And of course, O'Keefe said yes.

It's three degrees above zero here in Kentucky right now. I just realized I haven't been out of the house since Tuesday. That has less to do with the temperature than it has to do with the fact that two cars are in the shop.

That wasn't a "hose outlet" inside the house, it was the faucet of a laundry sink next to the washing machine, which is pretty common all over the U.S. They just used it because they would have already drained the water lines leading to the outside water taps (where the garden hose would be attached during the summer) in preparation for winter, so they needed an inside tap that had outside threads to couple with the hose. Ergo, the laundry sink.
