Matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match

If you know of a "good", tall, Marathi speaking, (preferably Konkanastha Brahman) girl, living in USA, willing to relocate to middle-of-nowhere-town, USA, please suggest for my "good" friend's son.

If you know a "good" boy, from a "good" family, 3-5 years older than Sulekha, please let me know. Don't let Sulekha know we are looking. Once we find a good match for her, she will be more open to an arranged marraige.

Patidev and I are now obviously considered old and wise enough to be in these conversations.

The only problem here is the definition of "good". What is a "good" boy, a "good" girl, or a "good" family? Ofcourse, the smarter parents only ask recommendations from people who are on the same wavelength as themselves, so the word "good" is hopefully understood the same way.

So far, the only matchmaking we have done is our own. Should we just "leave on a high" like George Costanza?

I guess so! But, I had forgotten my very key role in finding you a bride :)
