They are! I hope he makes it through the whole wedding ordeal. I talked to him for 45 min. earlier, and he is already about to lose his mind! His mother, mother in law to be, sister, etc... He is the very diplomatic version of me; but he will tell folks to pound sand if pushed, and fly to Vegas to get married!! LOL!! I think I managed to talk him through his frustration for now. :lol:
Sounds like you should consider taking him on either a fishing trip or hunting so he can escape all that girly, excitement that will turn him into a blithering idiot of frustration.

I believe Mr.B would be just as happy if we did an online wedding party. :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
IDEA - send Slats to the kitchen where he can 'taste test' before the food is all arranged to present to guests. MAYBE he would fill up enough he wouldn't have to 'this little piggy' in front of guests.

An excellent idea :!: :thumbup: :-P
There was a joke years ago about an evangelist who went to observe and pray with this African tribe. They were going to celebrate a wedding the next day and they asked him to officiate. He asked if they needed any directions on how to proceed, and they told him, "No, we have read all about how you do it in America."
The next day everything is proceeding beautifully. The music begins to play and much to the shock of the evangelist, a fellow runs through the crowd touching the women on their breasts. After that disruption, all moves along as smoothly as an American wedding. When the couple leave the gathering, and the rice is thrown, the evangelist asks the chief, "What was the purpose of the fellow running through the crowd to touch the ladies on their breasts?" The chief answers, "In the book, it said a 'nervous titter' ran through the crowd."
At this point, the book did not say, "OK, so it's a groaner."

Better idea, have Slats prepare the food. He tells us he is an excellent cook. :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

I am not sure Mr. Alinsky had any ideas concerning food preparation, only consumption of others efforts and work.

Diverting and deflecting the direction of the subject...eating food as opposed to preparing food :!: :hunf:

That looks like a feral hog to me...maybe even a crossbreed with a javelina.
But, then, I'm not Marlin Perkins. :wink:
