  • I can shed some light on the Couch grave - that was my aunt and uncle. Valva was his legal name but he NEVER went by that. In fact at the funeral most of the family had no idea that was his name, and in fact a couple of his brothers disputed that was even the case. But in any event, no it was not a same sex marriage and I have feeling that if he knew that was in question he would have some words for John Green.

  • this was the first video of the vlogbrothers I ever watched :D. I remember it was so weird for me to hear a guy talking with someone who wasn't even there :)) But I liked the kind of poetic way in which he talked, and that made me subscribe :) "nothing is etched it stone. well..until it is". epic
