Well, I can't tell family about this; that's my son's call. But I gotta tell someone! So you guys are it. Num. 1 Son started dating a girl when they were 15; married her when they were 23. Very big deal, her daddy dropped somewhere ~$250K-$500K for the wedding. She left him for a guy at work 1.5 years later; much psychic damage, much newly-single-stupid behavior. Last year he reconnectd with a chick from college, and has, of late, been living w/her in Sacramento. Tonight (7 years post-dump) he calls at 23:35 CST; "Did I wake you guys ?" "Not me." "Then you better wake her up - we're in Vegas, and we're waiting for the limo to take us to the Little Chapel of Love!" So best wishes to Ryan & Jen, another beer for the happy dad, and DAMN it's hard not calling my folks, his brothers, aunts, uncles, etc. Peter, the proud father of the groom.

Peter: Congrats! By the way, a "$250K-$500K" wedding? Did every guest receive an Alembic as a party favor? Heck, my wedding cost an EXTREMELY small fraction of that ... and we had JGB as the wedding band! lol Bill, tgo |

Thanks, All. Yeah, Bill, it was way over the top (alas, a standard wedding band, though). And he did it again 6 months later for her sister. Peter |
