_High-Diving Hare_. Sam insists that Bugs Bunny substitute for Fearless Freep (who cannot get to the gig) in a high-diving act. Bugs climbs the tower, but never dives–instead, he tricks Sam into doing the dive, over and over and over.  
Favorite Sylvester the Cat episode?

Greedy for Tweety: The one where he and Hector (the bulldog) are in hospital beds wearing casts. Whenever Sylvester gets up, Spike starts barking at him, and Sylvester hits Spike’s leg cast with his crutch to get him to shut up. Later, Sylvester hits Spike’s cast again and Spike smiles back at him. Sylvester hits it again and Spike keeps smiling. It was a decoy leg. The smile said “I got you fucker.”

Tossup between _What’s Opera, Doc?_ and _Rabbit of Seville_. Both are equally funny, I find; especially the operatic dialogue: “I’ll get you with my spear and magic helllll-met!” “There, you’re nice and clean, although your face looks like it might have gone through a ma-chine.”

Black pepper. If that doesn’t count, then teriyaki sauce, which I put on all kinds of things. It’s great of fake chicken patties.

Walking Puppy-Cat on a leash. Apparently most people have not seen a lilac Siamese cat on a leash, but Puppy-Cat (original name “Lilac Lou”) was abandoned at birth and raised by a mother dog. Someone remarked “Trust you to adopt a puppy-cat.”

Subbookkeeper. Four pairs of double letters in a row. I also like yellowwood for it’s double-double-u’s.

Whichever one it was that had the Heat Miser and the Snow Miser; _The Year without a Santa Claus_, maybe?

And I’m so glad my parents let me watch all that stuff. A lot of Jewish parents didn’t, and I’m a more observant Jew than those other kids grew up to be.

All cola is gross, but if I have to choose, Diet Coke goes well with Jack Daniels.

This sparkling white from Russia. I don’t know actually how much it costs in dollars, but I know it’s not expensive. I know it is also the nectar of the gods. I have had real Champagne, from the Champagne region of France, and this Russian sparkling white is better. My father brought back a bottle from one of his trips, and I got to open it on my 18th birthday.  
MF wedding you ever attended. (There must have been ONE good one. And yes, you can say yours.)

OK, it was mine. It was small–her family was all out of town, and couldn’t attend; and I was in pretty much the same position. But we had a number of local friends whom we invited.

Note that I was quite involved in the local music scene, and all our local friends were musicians. So one friend used his fiddle to play us up the aisle in the small chapel (he played a traditional Irish tune), and did the same when we walked down after the ceremony (that tune was “Mairi’s Wedding,” as I recall); and at the cocktail hour before the reception dinner, another friend played gentle instrumental guitar. Then, after dinner and speeches, we all figured–why not? The fiddle and guitar came out, and I got a pair of spoons for rhythm (yes, I can play spoons, and it is the source of my username), and we all played and sang and danced until the wee hours. Great time!

Let’s hear more “Most Favorite Wedding” stories.

My friend Ted’s first wedding (of 3 so far) - It was a little Ren Fair, with ponfa fighting, tale telling, games, costumes, flagons, etc.

> favorite divorce

Some people I knew at my last synagogue, who I won’t name, so I’ll call them Susan and Gordon. They had a daughter and then a son who is autistic. They got divorced when they kids were about 14 and 9. Both remarried. Susan married a guy with a daughter in college, and Gordon married a woman with whom he had twin sons. Susan and her new husband were guests at Gordon’s second marriage.

When there are meetings for the autistic son, everybody shows up. He has four parents there, when some kids barely have one, which I think is great.

Susan and Gordon’s daughter babysits for the twins (and gets paid), and once in a while, Susan’s stepdaughter even babysits for them.

They are practically like a big, extended family. I don’t know whether it’s very cool, or very weird.  
Favorite person you know, besides the obvious (ie, your SO, your kids, and soforth).

I would say my friend Joel, who live 350 miles away. We’ve done so many cool things together, like drive around the mountains and look for haunted burial sites, hike trails, design games, visit the UK, come up with writing ideas, brew beer and mead, and so on. He lives with his aging parents and a brain-damaged son, but has a huge extended family, enough to populate a small town, and I come down for holidays to hang with them. I went there to watch the solar eclipse. I arranged to have a silversmith in my neighborhood make a locket for him embossed with characters from a story he wrote. He’s got a twisted sense of humor like me and always manages to prevail through hard times and crisis and come up with a good laugh when it’s over. We’ve also had some knock-down drag-out fights, but that’s what friends are for. He keeps me insane in a good way.
