At least your Elvis performed well. \<–grumbleling Raven’s fan. 😉 Seeing it on the web was really cool. ---

Congrats, you two! I tried to watch, along with everyone else in #straightdope, but apparently, I had to upgrade my version of RealPlayer and didn’t do it in time. ---

Damn you people and your fast modems! _I_ wanted to be first to congratulate 'em! Anyway - me and **Valkyrie** caught the whole thing on RealPlayer - lousy video, lousy sound; you could only hear Elvis when he swallowed the mike while singing. It was one of the most beautiful things I’ve seen in a long while. Congratulations, you two. A long and happy life together. [sub]Cool! Now I have a reason to celebrate Swedish holidays![/sub] ---

Dagnab it…an hour late and a dollar short. I miss everything. :mad: I tried to go to Montfort’s website to find the archived pics, but I don’t know which one is their wedding; there seem to be a ton of them. Any help to a moe-ron doper, kids? ---

We got back home late last night. We had a great time, right now I’m very tired and a bit owerwelmed by everything. I’ll write more later and I’m sure **Montfort** will too. Just wanted to make a quick post and say once again, thank you so much everyone, and it feels good to be married.🙂 I also did 2 pictures that you can see now, it will be more later. The first one is us in the limo going to the wedding, the second one is us celebraiting. 1.[http://www.weintraub.nu/wedding/pictures/02.jpg](http://www.weintraub.nu/wedding/pictures/02.jpg) 2.[http://www.weintraub.nu/wedding/pictures/01.jpg](http://www.weintraub.nu/wedding/pictures/01.jpg) And for you that missed the wedding, go here, [http://www.vivalasvegasweddings.com/livewebcam\_september\_weddings.htm](http://www.vivalasvegasweddings.com/livewebcam_september_weddings.htm) and click on Weintraub wedding. ---

How exciting! You both look so happy. I was a little worried about the 2nd link. My mind is in the gutter today because I took “celebrating” to mean something _entirely_ different! 🙂 Congratulations. ---

Thanks for the link, Anniz. I’m watching it right now! It’s lovely — quite possibly the best wedding ever. You and Montfort look a little blurry in realplayer, but you both look so, so happy. I’m very nearly about to start crying. ---

It was a wild but great weekend. We got back into Washington around 2am on Monday night, and work was hell for me yesterday. Since I couldn’t get online all weekend (thanks for bumping this in my stead, **Olentzero** ), I haven’t read the boards since Friday. The wedding started a little later than 4.30, so they didn’t turn the webcam on until then. The quality on the webcam is pretty poor (did anyone grab some static images from the non-video cam? E-mail me if you did.), but the videotape we got is great. We’ve watched it a few times already and have cracked up over it each time. We’ll be bringing the videotape with us to **Jonathan Chance** ’s Dope-a-ween party on the 27th of October, but I’m hoping to digitize it beforehand to put online, too. I also have five rolls of film to develop today, and my lovely bride is busy today cleaning up and uploading pictures from both of our digital cameras. Viva Las Vegas! ---

Wow, Michael you look SO grown-up! 😉 I, too, missed the actual webcam event; what name should we be looking for in the archives…? ---

The still-cam seemed to be broadcasting a different wedding - some cowboy-themed affair with a fence in it. I kept refreshing to see if it changed but it didn’t; last time I checked the celebrants had all disappeared and the fence was completely destroyed. Looked like fun, though.
