We have a list of JPs that can perform our wedding ceremony with e-mail addresses. I have googled all of them to get a sense of what they are like, but I have no idea what to say in an e-mail other than to ask if they are available on our chosen date.
Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.
'War Stories'
Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
My faith isn't in a deity and attendant supernatural entourage but more in a sense that the cosmos has an awareness of some sort, though I have no means of defining it. When I die, I'll need to present myself to the cosmos and all eternity, and so far I don't feel like I'm going to be ashamed of what I have to show for what I did with my existence.
Totally cool, but still a faith that there will be a you after death, and someone bigger than you to discuss what you did with your life with. Just saying that some people do just fine without it. That having that faith and losing it does not have to be seen as a tragedy. And I'm also fine with someone losing one faith and replacing it with another. Just that I hope that is not seen as the only choice, even the only non-tragic choice.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm OK with being a tiny little spot in the immensity of eternity because even a tiny little speck is part of the greater whole. And at the same time I am the center of the universe, because if the universe is infinite then it does extend outward from my perceptions. Everyone is the center of the universe as they see it.
That's what I believe, too.
I have no idea what to say in an e-mail other than to ask if they are available on our chosen date.
Maybe give them an idea of what you're expecting?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Zen, how did it go in Tennessee?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't think you have to say much in the initial e-mail, sj. You and TCG are planning to get married, where and when, are they available and how do you proceed with ironing out the details if they are. If you'll have witnesses with you or if you'll need someone. Once they answer, you'll have a better idea of how to proceed, I'm sure.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Sorry about the ongoing maintenance issues. I'm getting that you have a disability, omnis? Yeah, elevator would be pretty important!
Shir, sorry you're feeling that way. I don't know much about Judaism but Yom Kippur - at least the making amends for the past year part of it - has always seemed very cool to me. I was raised Catholic but I'm agnostic. I've suffered from some pretty major depression for most of my adult life. Only in the last couple years have I tried harder to slog things out. And part of that has come from being wowed by the natural world (as viewed in microcosm in my garden). So even if you're not feeling in touch with a great supernatural being, this world alone - not to mention the entire universe - is pretty chock full of things to be in awe of.
But, yeah, sometimes it gets hard to see that because there are so many stupid human tricks in the way of it.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
yup, I get around on crutches.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
like Skee-Lo covering "Mr. Morton"
One of JZ's all-time favorites. "S'up Cat."

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

This is a good thing to have YOUR lawyer say ... your opponent's, NSM.

Sounds like the Boggle tournament at Ari Gold's house.
