''Runaway Bride'' Ready to Tie the Knot
kyw1060.com ^ | 8/6/05 | unknown

Posted on 08/06/2005 3:38:07 AM PDT by beyond the sea

Word out of Duluth, Georgia is that runaway bride Jennifer Wilbanks is ready to take the plunge with her fiancé, John Mason, 3½ months after wedding-day jitters prompted her to skip town and claim she was abducted.

The two have reportedly registered at Pottery Barn. The registry lists things like dining room furniture, a desk and some wine glasses, but shoppers say that's not what Wilbanks really needs:

"How about a mirror to take a look at herself?"

"A suitcase."

"A ball and chain to tie her to the room when he comes in."

"She should be registered at Athlete's Foot, right? Have sneakers!"

Wilbanks fled her fractured fairy tale wedding in April, attracting worldwide ridicule. Still, people say, they're hoping for a happy ending.

The two have reportedly registered at Pottery Barn. ---- This young lady is so "eccentric" you would think she'd be registered at "Bed Bath and Way Beyond".

At first I felt very bad for John Boy and saw his as a sympathetic figure. Now I think he's a complete Dumb***. Stay tuned for a miserable life, idiot!

And I'll kick in a 5-er for the Bud Light for anesthesia. Good luck to the happy couple!

Maybe he doesn't care either. They can honeymoon in Aruba.

Brings to mind an old 60's Del Shannon song:

===

As I walk along,
I wonder what went wrong,
With our love, a love that was so strong.
And as I still walk on,
I think of the things we've done
Together, a-while our hearts were young.

I'm a-walkin' in the rain,
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain,
Wishin' you were here by me,
To end this misery
And I wonder--
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder,
Why,
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away,
Yes, and I wonder,
A-where she will stay-ay,
My little runaway,
Run, run, run, run, runaway.


I'm a-walkin' in the rain,
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain,
Wishin' you were here by me,
To end this misery
And I wonder--
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder,
Why,
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away,
Yes, and I wonder,
A-where she will stay-ay,
My little runaway,
Run, run, run, run, runaway.
Run, run, run, run, runaway.
Run, run, run, run, runaway.

--Del Shannon, Runaway

This guy is galactic size idiot. Cheaters never stop cheating and women of dubious morality never change. They will continue to cheat on there husbands, write bad checks, charge huge amounts on credit cards, and yes make complete spectacle of their would be husband. A good woman is hard to find, and if you guys got one hold on to her.

I know my stepmother was that way. Marriages need a sound foundation, what kind of a foundation does this one have assuming you get this woman to the altar?
