George probably wishes he could buy up all the second day's newspapers and burn them.

If the parents do have pics, I'll betcha those 2 houses are regulars on the "Annual Tour of Homes" in their neighborhood.

I am really glad that the blonde bride standing in front of the white limo is clutching a glass in her right hand, instead of...

Inspired by spouse's skepticism the response to Al's post, I did some additional research at Snopes.com.

Turns out that some brides feel a professional obligation to wear a revealing wedding dress. Getcher minds out of the gutter-- not that kind of profession. But there are photos at this link, and they're even sort of safe for work:
snopes.com: Beaded Wedding Dress

Al's photo appears to have been taken in Moscow. (Yes, there's a city behind them her!) It's not clear whether it's a real wedding or a publicity stunt, but the accompanying sample e-mail is worth the read:
snopes.com: Wedding Dress of the Year

And it includes a photo of yet another marvel of cantilevered construction... probably with a Pro-Grip kicker.
