I’m reposting this in the TDay thread, but if you’re up now, here’s a funny from NRO:

Veruckt, don’t know if you saw this way up there on the thread, but this sounds like what you’re looking for. And while in RI, you can check out Newport for the mansions, the court house where John Adams tried the Amistad case, and the Newport Tower that some say that the Knights Templar built when they journeyed to America before Columbus did.

No wonder the bills are so costly. All the wrong people are writing it.

Yeah,Veruckt,I saw that Arrington website this morning..looks nice.Why don’t you have a Greek wedding at the Parthenon (anyone who has never been to Nashville has no idea what I’m talking about):you could grab a handful of lightning bolts and be Zeus!

Yeah Scott I went to the Arrington Vineyard with the future Mrs. V, my mother, and her boyfriend (the world’s loudest man) and it was beautiful. It was our visit there that triggered her wanting to have it at a vineyard but, as odd as it sounds, we want to have our wedding out of state so we can keep it smaller. We’ll have a big party when we get back.

Worth mentioning the future Mrs. V and I are paying for our own wedding (neither of us “come from money” so to speak) but I consider this a good thing since it really allows us to have control over it rather then caving to the wishes of over zealous in laws and parents.

Believe it or not, yes. Was almost tempted to make a pile of leaves ’round the corner just so I could jump in them. Sadly, Pablo Honey wouldn’t let me borrow his rake.

I don’t know…. it’s touchy sometimes. It seems to rotate. And I’ve even found my own comments in the filter before so ownership has few privileges.
