That’s Kevin Olson there with his fiance. They are tying the knot and all of us here at Wonders in the Dark wish him the weekend of his life and a glorious marriage. As everyone knows, Kevin is a man of eternal effervescence, a guy with a dynamic personality and a passion for everything he encounters. Encountering Kevin has been one of the great joys of the blogging experience. Check out his last post before his sabbatical at Hugo Siglitz:

Best Wishes Kevin! I’ve enjoyed all your contributions and can see easily why everyone says you are a great guy. That picture tells it all.
Congratulations Kevin! You the man this week.
Indeed Joe and Frank. Kevin is a prince.
Congrats indeed, Kevin!
A sign from the movie gods that your marriage is meant to be — under “Possibly related posts” there is a Kevin Costner link! (Kevin has had an eternal man-crush on Costner dating back to his 6th grade days of watching Robin Hood on a daily basis).
LOL Troy! So that Costner link has added meaning! Cool! And I am speculating that’s the Oregon Pacific Ocean in the background there, right? God’s country!
Ha! Troy you bastard! Yes…I have an unabashed affection for Costner. Sam, thank you so very much for the kind words and well-wishes…I too am glad to have found this blog and all the wonderful people on it. Thanks everyone for the kind words.
And yes…that is the Oregon Pacific Ocean…God’s country indeed! I love it out here and wouldn’t trade it for anything. Although, I really do want to visit the East Coast.
Thanks again Sam.
Ah, Kevin, the East Coast is to visit for sure, but once out there living, one can never give that up!
I wish you all the success in the world, Kevin.
Have a great honeymoon, even if marriage is something I shudder at. Something I see as the necessary first step on the road to the divorce court. May you take a better path and prove me wrong.
Congrats Kevin. You are about to enjoy the week of your life. Seems like it couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.
Congratulations Kevin!! It”s great to hear about nice things happening to people we know. I’ve been browsing your site and am completely impressed. Good luck to you and your lovely Bride-to-be (you lucky dog-she’s a real looker) and many happy wishes for your wedding and the life you are about to begin. Being that this is a movie site I’ll quote a famous marriage moment from film: “DON CORLEONE, Thank you for inviting me to your daughters wedding (hic),on the day of your duaghters wedding. And, may their first child be a masculine child. I pledge my ever humble loyalty to you daughters bridal purse.” (And don’t feel bad about the man-crush thing Kev, I’ve had one on Paul Newman since 1970). All the best! Dennis
Bobby, Allan, David, Dennis:
Thank you all so much! I really appreciate the kind words and well-wishes.
Hi! Kevin Olson,
Congratulation! on your pending…Nuptial this Friday…may, you and your lovely bride-to-be, both have a very happy life together!
DeeDee 😉
Congratulations Kevin, I hope that she’s movie-lover too! 😉
DeeDee and Bobby J.:
Thank you for the kind words of congratulations. Bobby she is not as much of a movie lover as me, but she’s always game for an interesting looking film. She’s a casual movie-goer, but I didn’t even have to twist her arm to watch There Will Be Blood with me…so I’ll be alright, hehe.
Thanks again for the kind words.
Congratulations Kevin. You two look perfect together.
Sam, surely that should be fiancée not fiance. He’s marrying a young girl not another man.
Congrats Kevin. Byron said “all women are angels. wedlock is the devil.” Hope you do not let this devil overwhelm the better angels of your (and your spouse’s) nature!
Congratulations Kevin!
You look so damn happy in that photo 🙂 And so you should be, you’re a smashing chap and it’s always a pleasure working with you – Kevin has been Counting Down The Zeroes most avid contributor – and just shooting the breeze.
All the best for the future young man, you deserve it.
