16 Oct 03 - 05:43 PM (#1037045) Subject: BS: One year count-down please From: Clinton Hammond After 10+ years of co-habitation, through troubles untold, hardships unnumbered, joys unbound, and pleasures uncounted... Long time Mudcatter Clinton Hammond and his Ladyfaire, (Unknown to Mudcat.org, and indeed to most of the internet) Sarah FitzGerald have set a date to make their commitment official. Having now found a hall to have the ceremony and reception at, on October 16nd, 2004, we will stand before our friends, our family and before the great spirits of the unknown and the ghosts of our ancestors (and any other gate-crashers I suppose) and vow one simple word, "Forever"... Thanks to my many chums here... Some of you helped me get here... some of you just entertained me while I travelled to this place in my life... But I value both equally! Clinton Hammond |

16 Oct 03 - 06:16 PM (#1037062) Subject: RE: BS: One year count-down please From: Rapparee I'd suggest running, but after 10 years, well, I suspect you know each other pretty well so I'll just say, "Congratulations." Did you know that you forgot to mention *where* this was going to be? I'll bet some Catters would send presents or something if we knew where it was going to be. Yessir, NOBODY would think of crashing the party.... |

16 Oct 03 - 06:29 PM (#1037067) Subject: RE: BS: One year count-down please From: Clinton Hammond If yer not willing to CRASH my party I don't want your gift! LOL Seriously, I assume that most people will use the locator and discover that I'm still in Windsor, Ontario Canada... where I've been my whole Mudcat life... :-) Gifts of large bills and or real estate deeds are best I think... As for the ten years thing, ya... I told her the other day that with good behaviour, if she'da tried to kill me, she'da been out by now... She said she didn't think of it at the time... Hehehehe |

16 Oct 03 - 08:05 PM (#1037129) Subject: RE: BS: One year count-down please From: Clinton Hammond "Are you gonna let her come out and meet the Cat?" It's not like she's never ghosted the place, or looked in when I talked about some of the *rabble* around here... It's just that she really has very little interest in posting to MBs, and having conversation this way... And well, she's not exactly as dyed-in-the-wool folkie as I am... I will likely emaal her the url to this thread though... :-) |

Yer gonna find yourself promising all KINDS of things.... well, if anyone can fulfill it all, I suspect you are just the one to do it. So, again, congrats! ~Susan |

17 Oct 03 - 12:19 AM (#1037232) Subject: RE: BS: One year count-down please From: LadyJean Congratulations Clinton and Ladyfaire, now the advice I offer anyone planning their wedding. Lock and hide your car. Lock and hide your luggage. Give the key to your place only to friends with no sense of humor. That goes double for the address of your honeymoon hotel. Be a little careful about opening your wedding gifts. Some people like to "surprise" couples at their weddings. I admit to wrapping a motion activated "honking goose" and slipping it among a couple's wedding gifts, and my only regret is that I wasn't there, when they unwrapped it, and it started honking! |

18 Oct 03 - 03:12 AM (#1037633) Subject: RE: BS: One year count-down please From: Mark Cohen You thought you were going to get away with it, didn't you, Clinton! Didn't anybody else notice that Clinton announced that the Big Day is scheduled for "October 16nd, 2004"? So when the supposed Big Day comes, and everybody's all gussied up and ready for the ceremony, he gets to put on this surprised, wide-eyed look and say, "But no, my dear, you must have misunderstood. I agreed to have a ceremony on October 16nd, but today is October 16th! So sorry." Aloha, Mark (Mazel Tov to both of you) |
