OK, this is the craziest thing I've read in a while. From Carolyn Hax's weekly chat:
Kansas City: Maybe this isn't a Carolyn question, but as long as you're talking weddings....
My sister wants my six-year-old to be her flower girl. The thing is, I have a little boy, not a girl.
I spoke to the woman who runs the bridal salon and she said she's seen this several times and if the boy doesn't mind, it's a lot of fun.
I'm not sure I want to see my son in a dress, made up, etc (she'll even have hair extensions for him) but it is HER wedding and I'm probably going to cave.
Am I doing the right thing?
washingtonpost.com: Okay, this is just really weird.
Carolyn Hax: Speechless.
Please don't cave.
SERIOUSLY!?!?
Um...don't cave on not putting a 6YO boy in a dress for a public event, ok. Don't cave on letting a 6YO boy strew flowers at a wedding -- WTF?????
See, having a flower boy? Awesome. Dress, makeup, hair extensions?!? CRAZY.
Someone upthread was speculating about Bush ties to the UAE. Here's an article about that.
The oil-rich United Arab Emirates is a major investor in The Carlyle Group, the private equity investment group where the President's father once served as senior advisor, and is a who's who of former high level government officials... Just last year, Dubai International Capital, a government buyout firm, invested in an 8 billion dollar Carlyle fund. Another family connection, the president's brother, Neil Bush, has reportedly received funding for his education software company from UAE investors.
Damnit. I just found out a good friend and her family are moving to southern Virginia. We started here within a month of each other. It's a really good move for them and I'm happy for her, but damnit. I like my friday lunch trio the way it was.
The resolution would recognize "a Christian god," and it would not protect minority religions, but "protect the majority's right to express their religious beliefs."
'Cuz we really do need more protection of the majority's right to fuck with the minority....
