    I have never been so proud of my wife!

    So I'm sitting at my desk in my make shift office, dligently working on stuff when my wife from the other room yells;

    "Hey honey!"

    I respond in my ever patient way when interrupted;

    "What?!?"

    "Is this a Mego?" she excitedly asks. You know I had to go look.

    Thanks to DVR technology she had paused and cued up a spot on 'Full House'. Everyone loved Uncle Joey. Admit it. Anyway...

    She hits the play button and lo and behold there he is... Mego Ponch, complete with grey head. The oldest of the Tanner girls (forgive my having forgotten her name, she's no Uncle Joey) and Kimmey (why I remember that one is beyond me) are having an argument and not Uncle Joey says "and here is your Eric Estrada doll!" and slams him in a box.

    "That's a Mego right?" says my blushing bride of three years, eyes wide with excitement (celebrated the anniversary yesterday gang, thanks for the cards ).

    "Why yes it is baby. Yes it is." I said, remarkably pleased that I have indeed landed the girl of my dreams.

    Now, Go Play!

    Nice. She's a keeper. I wish I knew a girl who doesn't care that a grown man collects "dolls", and one that actually calls them Megos. She certainly sounds like a cool wife. Congrats on your anniversary btw!

    And the of the oldest one is D.J.

      Jim, finding a soul-mate is so fantastic, they have yet to invent a word good enough to describe it.
      My soul-mate has been with me for twelve years/seven years married. She is a roller derby girl, and tells me to go play with my dollies. I love the way she tries to insult me as 'not masculine' because I'm an artist. It goes back to the day she introduced me to her mother. Her mother asks; "Is he gay?", and my soul-mate tells her mother; "Mom, I said this is my new boyfriend! No!"

        She now truly is...one of us...

        The same thing happened to my wife. Before we met, she didn't even know who Spock was, now she gets many of the references and in-jokes without any trouble.
        She has been assimilated!

                When I read the title I thought your wife helped you bury a retro body and then didn't tell the police. I MEGO sighting is cool too.
                If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.
