20. i'll take that action for $2000.00
and CStT...I will cut you in for 50% :-) Don't think that is legal (you know, throwing a wedding and all) but if the corp bigwigs can do this sort of thing...

PS : Good Luck ChavezSpeakstheTruth...marriage is a wonderful, if challenging, thing!

4. I hope so my friend
Actually - I'm surprisingly not nervous - Stephanie is my best friend - so it should work. Plus I've got you and Pagerbear to flirt with :)

5. We'll be here. :-)
That's so important, what you said about Stephanie being your best friend. That's a sign of a marriage that will last many, many years.

G'luck.

It's coming pal there ain't a damned thing you can do about it either. As Hunter S. Thompson said...."And that's when things got weird".

10. Actually her mom (my godmother) is VERY cool about not getting in
the way. She knows WE are the opinionated artistic folks. We're having canolis instead of a wedding cake - fer instance. MY mom is far more to fear than hers

21. cannolis...nice touch
Leaves a little too much room for Clemenza-like lines: "Leave the wife...take the cannolis..."

11. Congrats CSTT

I never had the privilege of marriage, but I heard it can be ok. Enjoy these last few days of singleness. I was thinking about tying the knot before, it's just not for all of us. I think you will really dig it though.

18. That guilt over "living in sin" will pass too.
Take it from a fellow Papist! :hi:

19. My favorite Oscar Wilde quote "I am not a Catholic,
I am simply a
violent Papist."

22. as one who was raised Catholic but agrees with the heirarchy
on very few points, you don't need to worry about "legitimate" sex. Love is love. There is no "living in sin." I did for uh, many years! Personally, I don't think God cares.

COngratulations! You sound like a way cool couple. I should send you some pictures of my "black boot" wedding, i.e., what most of the guys wore! I myself, was dressed pretty traditionally.. well, not in white, fersure, but traditionally for me. But no one else was!

:toast: and a :toast: to John Kerry for great debate, as well!
