Probably going to be a Liberal Democrat wedding with all Republican parents. I wouldn't want to be them.

Getting married right before the presidential election might disrupt honeymoon plans, if they have any. With the economic crisis getting worse by the day, fueled by inaction of the stinkin <insert opposing party here> party, they may never be able to afford a honeymoon.

By the time their kids go to school there won't be any public schools left because the [enemy politicians] plan on leaving every kid behind to fend for themselves. After all, we are in desperate need of a new generation of ditch diggers who'll never live long enough to collect Social Security or a Pension.

Maybe they should just date instead.

Sir Patrick told us this story last Sunday at the Las Vegas Star Trek convention. We all cheered at the end when he said, "Engaged."

Perhaps if we could've heard the young man's heartfelt proposal in the video, it would've made a greater impression. It's not every day that you're asked to witness a proposal. Thank goodness she said "Yes!"

That was nice, but nowhere near being the coolest proposal ever. There have been a lot of great ones, but this is one of the best.

Have to be honest - I didn't find it first. Someone else posted it some time ago. I couldn't find the original thread, or I would have linked to it as well.

Quite clever. It would have sucked if she said no!
