Geaux Ingli and S-li!

Werd ich zum Augenblicke sagen, "Verweile doch! Du bist so schön..."

Oh, lordy, Fritz, I don't think I could be married to him.
I'd be in a constant state of...what's the right word?

Excitement?

And Margaret Court can go and stew in the misery of her own making.

She doesn't come off so well in Battle of the Sexes, either.

Not completely certain whether the notary will be able to register the wedding or not, but if not it will be subject to the courts, and CR has announced that it will follow the recent ruling of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights.

Even now, I still can't get enough stories like this. Two Apache helicopter pilots.

I just saw this on the NY Time's Twitter feed, Fritz and was going to post it here for you! It's so great to see this!!  They are so handsome!!

We need to let Ingy see this as their first dance as a married couple was:

Only Him for Me The first dance was to “La Vie En Rose” by Edith Piaf, performed by Violette de Bartillat and the La Vie En Rose Band, a French/jazz band.

They're the first active duty couple to be married at the Cadet Chapel. I'm a complete sucker for stories like this.
