Friday Night Photos Gettin' Hitched Edition

Happy Friday everyone. Welcome to Friday Night Photos your once a week escape from the day to day insanity of the world we live in. Post any photos, memes, music or whatever else you find of interest that helps tune out the madness.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday, and are enjoying the leftovers today.

As many here know, last month I wandered off to Las Vegas for my niece's wedding. She said she did not want a traditional wedding. The ceremony was performed by a female Elvis impersonator at one of the hundreds of small wedding chapels that can be found all over town. Seems to me you couldn't get more traditional than that in Las Vegas. Lets throw in a Vegas showgirl, too. There was no wedding cake but there was wedding cannoli (yum). The showgirl (double yum) was there to fill cannoli shells for the guests at the reception.

There was no wedding singer. Just this guy playing the organ.

Sorry for the late posting. Must be lethargy from too much festivities yesterday.

Thanksgiving and the day after have always been my favorite holidays. A series of days - clean the house, cook, bake, prep for a crowd, then the house filled to capacity with gratitude for those present and those who live in our memories, and to complete the holiday a quiet reflective day. Then normal life continues.

Thanksgiving

Another Thursday, another Thanksgiving! Yay!

I hope everyone is having a great holiday, with good food, family and friends (if one desires), and loved ones. I would like for all of us who have been ill from whatever cause to have a wonderful day and, I dunno, maybe the powers above (and/or below) would let everyone get better? That would rock!!

GOP Singing the Blues

It is up to about a dozen forlorn emails to "me" from the Republicans whose outreach program has mistaken me for MAGA stalwart. I posted most of these missives here because I find their Hijinx to be risible.

The latest one shows a change in tone, from nervous insecurity to panic:

From the Scalise office:

We’ve lost every race this fall.

There is only one opportunity left to build momentum before the Midterms
