    This was an entertaining read, as ever, Phyllis!. Yet I'm surprised that you awarded +2 points to groom Jesse Weinraub solely because his dad covered presidential politics and the movie business for the NYT for decades.

    If anything, that kind of meta masturbation deserves a -2 score. Lest we forget, Weinraub Père was guilty of romancing studio head Amy Pascal during his "extremely objectively bad-ass" reporting tenure in Hollywood, and also, subsequently, of unleashing upon the world a LAME-ASS play called "The Accomplices."

    Sins of the parents fall upon the children and all that, right?

    That being said, best wishes to the bride & groom.. #weddings

    Kay Bailey Hutchinson really needs to stop voting to restrict abortion and start making out with Kathleen Sebelius in a slow, deliberate way that gradually crescendos into Delibes' "The Flower Duet" but with sex.

    Unrelatedly, the fact that your picture of Heinz horseradish is really blurry somehow makes this post even better; kind of adds a spicy tang. #weddings

    Brava, as usual, Phyllis.

    Is it revealing that when I read "a delicious addition to the Bloody Mary you are drinking right now, an important part of Passover" I assumed the antecedent to "part" was the Bloody Mary, not the horseradish, and therefore assumed you meant to type "hangover," not "Passover"? #weddings

    The real change in this year's Weddings and Celebrations is that people are fooling around (or married) when they meet their soon-to-be significant other. Then they announce this fact to the NYT reporter during the phone interview.

    I have noticed this change because of your insightful summaries, Phyllis. And truly do believe that this fact shows a significant change in the American mentality.

    Everyone cheats or is tempted to cheat, but now the Grey Lady says it's OKAY, because this is how you meet Mr/Ms Wonderful.

    @smithhimself: Yeah I mean, it's not so much that I'm even judging -- I realize these things are often fluid; in this case, he had been separated for some time -- but it's just the way they compose the articles I feel like I always make it two or three paragraphs away from the end and then get flicked in the ear with some cleverly-worded little aside about someone's divorce becoming final and I do one of those Scooby-Doo whaaa? head shakes and end up having to re-read the entire piece to see if I missed something crucial.

    @Phyllis Nefler: I've thought about asking you to marry me (and yes, we would be in the NY Times with a photograph of the ceremony).

    But my ex-wife would be at the wedding with a large knife and that would ruin your perfect day...

    @MattyMcboy: Yes, of course. I had a cocker spaniel who ate ***everything*** that was in the trash, and lived to tell the tale. This happened repeatedly, despite modifications to the trashcan, including a brick in the bottom to keep him from knocking it over.

    FROM THE TIPLINE: a shadowy source who "works for the city" has confirmed that the office of Marty Markowitz sends these certificates to every couple that gets married in Brooklyn. How have none of you sent these along before? I honestly think they are created with Kid Pix. #weddings
