    Are they aware of the move? I bet the new look of the boards will be the biggest surprise of their lives!

    Were they even active on the JC before their trip? I remember them posting regularly back in the day but I don't recall much since, I don't know, the start of this decade?

    If the news media finds out they met through here they might end up here whether they like it or not

    That she used to be an Ariel, but now she's more of a Belle.

    I can't wait for the phrase "Can love Blossom on a Messageboard" be broadcasted on CNN

    Which Disney princess provides the best allegorical model for being coopted as a Donald Trump foreign policy victory?

    This was a great CNN headline to wake up to this morning, so glad their whole family will be coming home alive.

    That makes sense. Beauty & the Beast could be subtitled "Stockholm Syndrome, The Movie."

    Seriously, though... I'm really glad to hear they're safe and coming home. I hadn't dared to hope for a positive outcome.

    Wow. Unbelievably good knews. Who knows what the hell Josh is doing refusing to get on the plane. But at least Conn and the kids are headed for safety.

    Some of the earlier article have mentioned that they met online on a messageboard, but never what kind of messageboard.

    The article should have suggested they met on a messageboard far, far away

    The original article that's linked in the OP said they met online "through a shared passion for Star Wars movies".

    So first I thought, "Oh good, their nightmare is over." Then from the article:

    The family has not yet departed Pakistan, however. The U.S. military had a C-130 waiting to fly the family out, U.S. officials say, but Coleman's husband Boyle would not allow the family to get on the plane and even refused to allow medical personnel perform an examination of his children.

    WHAT THE &^%$!!! Let the kids get checked and get on the damn plane!
