The converse also holds ;-)
(That is, spouses sleeping in separate rooms, in case I was too oblique.)
Sure, but that's a luxuary that's not available to poor people.
Wedding prices go way lower than $7K. If you want to just go to a registry office and then have drinks with friends afterwards then I'm sure it would be well below $1000.
Depends if they're sysadmins. Did LCA drink the pubs dry this year?
My observation was that not much alcohol was consumed at LCA. At the cloud computing free drinks event I didn't observe any signs of excessive drinking and I was there until 5 minutes before the free drinks were closed. I also didn't observe any significant drunkenness at the penguin dinner which apparently had free alcohol with few if any limits (I was drinking Coke so I didn't care much about such things). This was a stark contrast to previous LCAs which had significant obvious vomit problems at conference events and binge drinking contests. Anyway if someone has a registry office wedding then they probably aren't going to buy lots of drinks for everyone that they know. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
