But if Wikipedia gets its info from audience members it could be wrong...that's what the audience has thought until recently.
Sorry for the double post...haven't mastered the double quote yet!

They had a fight about her going, and she ended up going to the art program, lest she regret not having done so the rest of her life. She realized that she'd been with Marshall since freshman year of college and hadn't really been 'on her own' and had issues. Of course, from what we know this season, SF didn't turn out like she wanted/expected.

They could always get around that at the end. Perhaps he is referring to mom as Aunt Robin so as not to give it away immediately. There could be a real Aunt Robin, and Ted has switched the names. This is TV... anything is possible!

I think I remember an episode last season where when the kids first found out he had been interested in "Aunt Robin" they were like "eww you kissed Aunt Robin?" or something like that.

Hmm, I guess that shoots down the idea that he does marry Robyn and is talking to someone else's kids...like Marshall and Lily's...or Barney and XX's (XX being the "mother" in the how I met your mother) who might call him Uncle and her Aunt Robyn..courtesy titles... because surely they are too old to go Eww at the idea of a man kissing his wife... right?

Not really... I have a friend who claims to be 14, but he still grosses out at the thought of anything, even hand-holding. I think it depends on the person, and how the writers pictured things being in 2036. I don't know, maybe it will all be totally different then.

Neil Patrick Harris says he is gay
Fri Nov 3, 10:36 PM ET

LOS ANGELES - Neil Patrick Harris is gay and wants to quell any rumors to the contrary. "(I) am quite proud to say that I am a very content gay man living my life to the fullest," Harris tells People magazine's Web site.

The 33-year-old actor said he was motivated to disclose his sexuality because of recent "speculation and interest in my private life and relationships."

Harris stars on the CBS comedy "How I Met Your Mother." He started on TV as a teen, playing the namesake doctor on the series "Doogie Howser, M.D."

It didn't help that his publicist catagorically denied it. But Kudos to him and T.R. from Gray's for handling their respective coming outs with class. My hope is that this becomes mundane and not important. They are both class actors and do a wonderful job in thier parts.

Enjoyed tonight's episode (Swarley - ha, still laughing), but particularly enjoyed the presence of yet one more Buffy/Angel actor. For those that thought that they might have recognized him, that was Tom Lenk behind the counter at the coffee shop. I am now anxiously awaiting further visits from other Freaks & Geeks (Martin Starr was on last year).
