Can the Love be Real If the Flowers are Fake?

Hmmm. My take on weddings are much the same. Fake flowers, cheese factor is super-high, tackiness everywhere. What does this actually accomplish? I really don't know. I've been to a million weddings and they just get worse and worse as time goes on. I guess while most people are wrapped up in "showing" everyone else how deep their love is, I'm thinking that many, many couples (especially the women) are missing the point of this. This is sharing a moment of starting a new life with someone but somehow weddings seem to turn into grandstanding!

What is the point of this? And why do men let this happen? Why don't they stand up to the crazy women and say, "Whoa, whoa, what is the big deal? It's just a wedding!" But men seem to be afraid of women planning weddings and don't say anything.

And women! This is the biggest day of your life? Really? Is your life so empty and meaningless that this is the be-all and end-all of everything? Oh, come now. Life should be full of wonderful moments. Full - every single day should bring happiness and living life to the fullest. Living it to the most. Getting a new job, accomplishing something great, getting my EMT certification. Buying the first house. Moving into the first house. Buying the second house. Moving into the second house. Getting my car. Discovering new friends. Firing a rotten person, hiring a great person! Life is loaded with magic moments! My first life saved. The first life lost - oh, yes, living life to the fullest means experiencing and remembering the lows, too. Complete people have that - the good, the bad and the ugly. All of it.

So if your wedding is the only amazing moment in life, you need to really get out of the house and start living life!

Interesting Aftermath a From Season Five of "MasterChef"

Do I agree with this? You will have to read it first and decide for yourself. I had long since made up my mind before finding this article. MasterChef Season 5 Fixed: Courtney Lapresi Won Finale After Getting Preferential Treatment – Former Stripper Favoritism BY  STORMY ELIZABETH  ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2014 "They say if you can’t take the heat, you should get out of the kitchen, but what if you like it hot? If you’ve been watching  MasterChef this season 5 , you may have noticed that one contestant in particular seems to  be “winning” challenges  when her dishes don’t seem to be quite up to it.  Courtney Lapresi  has been billed as an “aerial dancer” on the show. So what exactly is that, you ask? It’s a fancy word for stripper. You may term what she does as burlesque, but nekked is nekked and she takes off her  clothes  when she dances, so you have to call them as you see them. Plus is it really fair that she’s up for a MasterChef win aft

Here's what the last 14 years look in numbers: So far we have sent out 3,782 unique words and 297 AWADmail compilations to 640,000 present subscribers in 200 countries, that is more than 1.6 billion pieces of email. Well, this week we're seeing all things 14. We'll feature words that are 14 letters long, and define each of them in 14 letters. acritochromacy (uh-KRIT-o-kro-muh-see) noun Color blindness.

The Longairc-Green Family

This is a family that was on Nanny 911 , the precursor to Supernanny , which airs on Wednesday nights. While Supernanny is a better production and leaves out some of the dopey American-isms of stupidity (such as the opening scene with a much older nanny head whose television showing the family and their issues turns around into a painting on the wall), this show has its value. These families are clueless or don't bother to try and definitely need help. This family is an exception in that the mother couldn't care less what the monsters do and will do anything to mollify them. The father is more consistent and definitely takes a much more disciplinary stance, but the mother undermines it at every step of the way. The two boys are so unbelievably rude, I'd've killed them where they stood. The little girl only wanted a moment of attention and was not doing anything negative, and the mother was awful to her. The nanny, Nanny Stella, spent the first day observing. When she s
