I can be father of the bride. I was going to pretend to be her father at the Dallas DopeFest on Saturday if she attended. Just so we could get her something to drink. I may not want to give her away, though. Jim ---

Better make it after dinner. We need to talk. He’s a Redskin’s fan. It’s one thing to _not_ be a Cowboy’s fan, but it’s something else entirely to be a Redskin’s fan. Jim ---

Well, since I am officiating, I am going to take Wildest Bill’s advice (you very rarely see _those_ words!!) and require that the two of you undergo counseling. Each of you must first answer these questions: #1–If the virtual baby begins virtually crying, who will virtually drag his/her tired ass out of bed and virtually feed it? #2–Both sets of virtual in-laws want you to visit at virtual holiday time. Who do you virtually visit and how did you determine this? #3–It is the end of the month and the virtual electric bill is due, the virtual kids need new virtual shoes for virtual school and the virtual car is in bad need of new virtual tires–you only have enough virtual money to do two of them. Which two do you virtually do and why? #4–The virtual dog just ate the neighbor’s virtual cat. Who goes next door and virtually explains and apologizes? Please respond with your answers ASAP. From your individual answers, I will determine if you qualify for a virtual marriage license. ---

If they did, there would be more ceremonies performed in bars by guys who became ministers in some attempted tax dodge. There would be a bar there already, and you could get pizza delivered for the reception. ``` [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/iampunha-and-palmyra-virtually-engaged/37058.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/iampunha-and-palmyra-virtually-engaged/37058.md?page=3)
