DAVID GREENE, HOST:

Good morning. I'm David Greene. Barbara Tatge's daughter gave her a dare when she ran the Boston Marathon last month - find a random, attractive man on the course and give him a smooch. Tatge kissed and then she told. Her daughter wanted to track down this mystery man, so she posted a picture of the kiss online. And this week, someone came forward - the guy's wife. She's not mad. She says the kiss captures the energy and fun of the marathon. Though, Tatge says she's going to stick to kissing single guys in the future. It's MORNING EDITION.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
