no one brought a gift?

I have experienced the lateness, etc. but not bringing or sending a gift? That's cold.

This sounds familiar ...

Was this a latin wedding or a black/Catholic wedding? (don't ask)

I think 95% of these things occurred in my first ceremony in the 'states 16 years ago. Got smart this time! We just went to the JP here ... :: smile ::

Don't forget the chicken...

Whose neck can be wrung to ensure that bloody sheets will be on the clothesline in the morning.

Kids or no kids, every female is a "senorita".
