I was trying to talk a guy with a cool last name into marrying me (just for a week or two, sheesh) and remembered this piece of writing. A couple of anti-marriage freaks get married in a Vegas drive-thru. Heh.
I never thought I'd change my name, but now that I'm engaged, the idea of being "Mrs. Cockrum" is perversely funny. I guess it be less funny if there were children getting stuck with that last name, though.
Dude, that is the most awesome idea of heard in a long time. The anti-marriage freaks have now earned a place on my hero list.
As for the fatherhood clip, I will forever keep that on my desktop to play and replay just in case I do get hit by those "motherly instincts" people always warn you about come 30
