So there's this crazy rumor floating around that our very own Mark G is getting himself hitched tonight. Anyone hear any gossip on this? Anyone with pictures? I certainly hope the photographer is using Nikon lenses!

Paparazzi time!

Is he eloping? Of course if he is reading Film-Tech on his wedding night, then well...

Posted by Monte L Fullmer (Member # 2797) on 03-29-2007, 12:51 AM:

Yea, wonderful little lady he's marrying (he brought her to ShoWest), so the best wishes and success for him.

Awww, why so quiet about it? Congrats!!! [beer]

I thought he was already married? [Confused]

Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 03-29-2007, 02:59 AM:

Maybe he forgot?

Also, which Mark G do you think we're talking about? There could be several.

Judging from sitting next to her at the DTS distributor breakfast.....she is not going to let him get away [Big Grin]

There is more to life than projectors [Cool]

He is going through an annulment from an FP5 at the moment.

Yes it's true...he told me about it when he was here a few weeks ago.

(To clear up any confusion for Joe, it's Mark Gulbrandsen.)

Posted by Tim Reed (Member # 137) on 03-29-2007, 10:56 AM:

Mike, yes, he's the one I was thinking of.

Richard, that's FUNNY! [Big Grin]

Yes it is true. Last night at 7PM we were married by Justice Paul Thompson (thats right!). Had a nice reception afterwords with friends and family. We chose the 28th because that was both our birthdates put together.

The Phillips FP's at my place are quite safe as Brenda is also interested in film stuff. She is a CAD specialist and has worked with Autocad and its new 3D counterpart for over 16 years. The company she's with designs waste water treatment tanks and associated systems for refinreys and chemical companies all over the world.

Will post a few pics in a day or so. Both Canon and Nikon lenses were used [Cool]

He does live in the part of the country that would be most accepting of this. [Wink]

Joshua! ROFL!!! [Big Grin]

LOL!

Well, Mark, congratulations! You should let people KNOW these things before the fact, pal!

Hey Mark!

Congrats to you both...I hope you'll be supremely happy.

(Must admit I got a lump in my throat though when you mentioned Paul Thompson)

Marriage...they should have invented it years ago!

Best wishes to you and your lovely lady.

John

Well Mark, now that you have that big chrome ring in your nose with the chain to be led around with, I hope you cut some of your BS. ...and, I trust your lovely lady knows what she's in for! [Razz]

Seriously, congrats to you both! I wish yous many happy years! [beer]

Mark,
Congrats ... Did Brenda do any design work in Egypt? I met a lady in Alexandria who was working on their water treatment plant.

Thanks everyone!!

Yea, I just asked Brenda and she did do drawings for tanks that are in Egypt. She is working on a job now that is going to China. A number of huge above ground tanks. If you see big blue tanks around with traveling bridges those are built by the company she works for and she most likely did the drawings.

Mark...has anyone ever told you that you look very much like cinematographer Dean Cundey? At least in your profile image you do.

I'll try to locate an image of Cundey and post for comparison. If I can't find one, cue up "Back To The Future Part III"...Cundey had a bit part as the photographer during the 1885 segment.

Congratulations Mark!

Thants funny, Paul Thompson was a great guy, an excellent Cinema tech, Radio engineer and a good personal friend. He is dearly missed.

All the best, Mark & Brenda!

WAY TO GO MARK!!!!

When I started reading this thread, I was thinking, 'That poor girl having to live among old projectors, and piles of parts.'

BUT it seems like you have hit the jackpot there!

Wow. You were married by Paul Thompson. What a coincidence!

All the best, my friend!

Hey Mark, Congrats to you and yours!

I am sorry that I didn't keep up with you to know this, I would have definately attentded, possibly wearing pants.

Welcome to and or back to the land of the dead, otherwise known as marriage and or Utah, or both.

Ciao!

Mark,

Its wonderful to read of this news! Congratulations and best wishes to you both. [Smile]

Marriage almost sounds surreal and such a major step into probably one of the biggest steps of showing emotion one can take in life... and I'm in awe of what that sanctifies. So in all seriousness I'm really happy to hear anyone I know be able to experience and express going through that.

Anyways, I really hope that you two will have many many wonderful years together. [Smile]
