The weather here in Seattle is usually dicey through July 4, and this was no exception . . . although it didn't rain, it was a little chilly and partly cloudy. Luke -- it is very cool to perform your own child's wedding. Tell your Dad congrats for me. I've performed a few more weddings than he has, however. I used to be in a tiny resort town on the southern coast of Oregon (Gold Beach). A lot of tourists wanted to come and get married on the beach, in the forest, etc., and I got pretty good at it.

(Get it? A "hitch"? Yeah, okay, that was dumb.) Seriously, though...just got back from my older brother's wedding, performed by my preacher dad, so this sounds somewhat familiar. :) Believe it or not, though, that was the first wedding he'd done since getting ordained some 20-odd years ago. It was a fun wedding, though. He should do more of them. Not sure if anyone cares about any of that, but I thought I'd share. :) I always find it amusing when people say that a wedding went off “without a hitch”…when technically, every wedding goes off with a hitch.

Evan, I'm gonna go see the Johnnie To. After all, it <i>is</i> father's day, after all. And yes, it's kinda weird to be marrying her off.

My wife chides me because at certain restaurants I always order the exact same meal, but why should I pay $15 to experiment on something I <i>may</i> like when I know I can get something I <i>will</i> like? And congrats on your daughter's wedding! Is this your first child to get married off? My daughter is only 20 months now, but I can't imagine what it will be like to send her off with another man for the rest of her life.
