People might plan a little more sensibly if they admitted this.
No shit. I wonder how many "till death do us part" marriages have pre-nups? I mean, they don't belong on the same page. Un-loving and unmarried as I am I don't have any problem with pre-nups, but don't ask me to sign one and tell me you'll love me forever and we'll last for eternity.
Good things don't have to last, do they? Is it a mark against us for not being permanent? Or do we really have to know this before signing up for matrimony, and otherwise just stay outside the institution? Then there shouldn't be government perks.
A lot of weddings don't have "till death do us part" any more, as far as I know, regardless of the actual intentions of the participants.
So ridic tired. Mac not asleep yet. DhjdkdjjdKjl
We didn't have 'til death, and we didn't have "obey" either.

Cool. Not that I could tell you any of the vows of any of the weddings I've attended in the past few years.
In New York State, apparently a marriage license is valid for 60 days. [link] Not sure what that says about NYS, but I'm guessing they mean 60 days in between getting the license and getting married....
Hey now:
Q. Can two first cousins marry?
A. Yes. However, New York State does not permit Marriage Licenses to be issued to an ancestor and a descendant (such as between a parent and child or grandparent and grandchild), a brother and a sister of either full or half blood, or an uncle and niece or aunt and nephew, regardless of whether or not these persons are legitimate or illegitimate offspring. >[link]
I love the internet.
(The upshot is, I can't find the text of a civil marriage ceremony in NYS.)
I have finely developed senses that allow me to ignore instrument cacophony at will. Handy skill.
Especially given your profession!
I recognize, Hec, that you see it as a fuck you. But I certainly don't. I think it's a politically semi-pragmatic decision. I am not even disappointed so much as I'm eyerolly. I'm as irked by their being an invocation AT ALL as I am at whom is making it.
Also, I'm intrigued that Melissa Etheridge "has nothing but good things to say about Warren, who she described as a thoughtful man of the cloth.".
The movie I'm watching just made me buy Smooth by Santana. Why do I never learn? I only have it twice already in iTunes. At least I've rated it now. But I am out 99¢.
