When the ceremony starts and the minister says, “332759 2356833, 93 273 42843733 4373 86329 86 5646 8447 626 263 8447 96626 56 843 4659 78283 63 628756669…” all of the well-wishers at the nuptials would pull out their cell phones and start punching numbers in madly.

Imagine as everyone punched in, “36 968 7766473 86 5683, 46667 263 7768328…?” Wouldn’t that just give you chills?

Since cell phones are so pervasive in our lives now, everyone should be able to follow along with the ceremony. When the minister gets to the point where he announces, “4 669 77668623 968 4872263 263 9433”, everyone could set off their cell phone ringers in lieu of the traditional crying.

Now, on to the honeymoon!

Annotation:







       Scene: a recent funeral for a cousin's 90 year old grandma. Let's just say she's had a rough but interesting life.   

       Enters stage left a manager, saying the Rabbi is about to enter and so the casket must be closed, and please, everyone turn off your cellphones.   

       Said cousin, a hefty specimen that might easily take advantage of the Paraloon, is just completely broken up, wailing away over the open casket -- a no,no in Jewish tradition as noted above. Many in the audience remark how the Oscars might just be challenged by this performance.   

       And then, magically, out of the audience, as the Rabbi enters the room, the Ride Of Valkiries+

       [tc] too funny and too sad, but better the Ride of the Valkiries than something else. <link>
