The Irrevocable Shackles of Matrimony
The Guy and The Gal are going to get married! Fear not, this is not yet another case of The Marrieds claiming two innocent members of Team Bachelor as unwitting victims, The Guy and The Gal have been de facto married for years and years. They've been dating excluviely since the twentieth century, far longer than the duration of a great many marriages. They will simply be married de jure, thus officially solidifying their already sworn allegiance to The Marrieds. Congratulations, kids, on a purely symbolic but unimpeachably significant modification to the status quo. Kudos!

BTW South Song of the Day
Less Than Jake, "Scott Farcas Takes It On the Chin" from Hello Rockview (Mt. Love)

Commentary: The name of the bully in A Christmas Story is actually Scut Farkus, not Scott Farcas, but I only know that because of the Internet Movie Database. Growing up, I always thought it was Scott Farkus/Scott Farcas (either spelling seems fine to me). Of course, the title doesn't even really have any bearing on the lyrics. "Scott Farcas" is one of the world's finest songs and if you've never heard it you have my pity. And contempt. More pity, but still plenty o' contempt.
