I have no further comment

A question posed to the "Ask Jane" advice column in the Austin Statesman:

"A friend's fiancee attended a wedding in which the bride played "Wagner's Bridal Chorus" on her accordian as she marched up the aisle. My friend's fiancee has decided she wants to do the same thing. Is this considered taboo at a wedding, or at least inappropriate? If not, should the accordian and the bride's gown be color coordinated? Where should she have the bridal bouquet? If her father accompanies her down the aisle, what should he do because both of the bride's hands and arms will be busy moving as she plays her squeezebox?"

Taboo, no. Ridiculous looking, yes.
Good luck coordinating a bridal gown with a, let's say, black and red accordion. Forget the escort--the dad should march in beside her playing his bagpipes. And let's have someone from HeeHaw--maybe Buck Rogers--officiating the ceremony.

Just some ideas.

You really need to get a hobby or something to use up the free time you obviously have too much of.

I think he's talking to me, Bob, since he posted this immediately after I did.

Well, for my part I am going to tell him I do have a hobby - searching the news and the web for obscure bits of information to put on my blog.

As to what you tell him...
