It was my sister. “He’s single” it said.  Since my divorce her matchmaking skills have fallen flat to say the least, so it’s not surprising I ignored the text and carried on about my day.  It wasn’t until the headline caught my attention later in the day that I discovered who she was referring to: “ Bill and Melinda Gates  are ending their marriage after 27 years.”  Three thoughts came to mind: first, I would need to set my sister straight.
