At my cousin's outdoor wedding, a guest parked within view of the seating area, got out of the car, beer in hand, wearing cut-offs and a wife beater. He did go to his trunk and put on a button up shirt but didn't bother to button any of the buttons. Oh, and he grabbed his personal cooler of beer to bring with him.

At that was only one of the guests on the bride's side of the ceremony. It was pretty easy to figure out who was related to the bride. Luckily she seems to have overcome her background and so far she and my cuz are happily married.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Also visited by the insomnia fairy last night.

Well there was the wedding where the DJ caught the garter and grandma caught the bouquet. when the DJ tried to get the garter above grandma's knee - grandma pulled out the stiletto.

and then there was the wedding where the sister of the bride were sure MOB was drunk, not an unusual occurrence. Luckily the sister of the groom, who was training to be a nurse, recognized that the MOB was having a heart attack.

or the weding where the priest was talking about how marriages were for having children and you could here the horrified 'no" that went through the congregation at the though of this couple having children

or the wedding where the priest scolded the couple for living together and followed it by the infamous speech " Adam tried all the animals but none of them were for him"

any guesses why we eloped? Of course it was vegas and our driver did tell us how to tell the good prostitutes from the bad on the way to our wedding

Ann, that's a ferret.

msbelle, does it help to know that you can claim your property taxes as a deduction on your Federal income taxes?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Today's lesson: "bending the curve" is the new "moving the needle."

I have no idea what either of those are supposed to mean.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I have told this story here, but a friend's dad showed up drunk at her wedding with a woman he'd picked up the night before (who was also drunk) and whose name he didn't know.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Making a difference in the field, more or less.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

My Father's drunken bride got handsy with my cousin's new fiance at another cousin's wedding this summer.

Yet another cousin and I were all "Didya warn him?" "Ah, he's gotta learn to swim sooner or later - best to just toss 'im in."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I just went to the NYTimes website and there's a banner ad across the middle in a type font which is totally inappropriate for the New York Times. Gawd, it's a design disaster. It looks crappy.

They need to better juggle their ad revenue needs and design elements.

I don't have this problem when I go to the Guardian UK website, dangit.
