Congratulations to jonmc and pips! Married! For real! With Elvis!
Awesome! Congrats and many happy future days!
Since you found Elvis, can you pass on that he still owes me a sixpack and a bag of pork rinds?

Since I found Elvis, I don't seem to need Jesus so much anymore.
Congrats kids. May your many future days be filled with cheap beer and good music.

I'd raise a toast to the lovely couple, but my toaster's on the fritz, so let me raise an oven-burned bagel to life-long love and happiness for the both of you, even if it HAS to be together! Matzo tops!

Shame all Vegas Elvises are FatElvis, instead of 68ComebackSpecialElvis. Probably due to the fact that a pair of giant glasses and a truncated Boy Wonder cape hide a myriad of non- Elvislike traits. You can't hide anything in black leather.

At least you had the sense to marry up, jon. This whole thing makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Just the fact that there were more Meta community members present than (any) family members shows that this is more than a website.
So, you didn't answer the question; any possibility of the stork flying over your abode?
Monday morning and I'm drunk. Sorry about the alcohol-induced non sequiturs.
