the one-year anniversary

Isn't that redundant? If it were six months, it wouldn't be an anniversary.

It's one of those stories we can all aspire to forgetting about, even if we don't. This story is like the undead--there's just no killing the darned thing.

By all accounts, Wilbanks and Mason still haven’t tied the knot, but they remain engaged.

According to their pastor at the time, Wilbanks and Mason were living in the same residence but not having sex. I wonder if that guy is still their pastor.

Did anything else ever happen in Gwinnett Co? The Gwinnett Daily Post must desperately wish those halycon days of yore to return. Back when they actually had something to report, however ridiculous....

Many people have anticipated a book or movie about the runaway bride since ReganMedia purchased rights to her story last year for a reported half-million dollars, but execs for the company said nothing is in the works.

Now that's pitiful, did they really pay her a half-mil? If so, maybe nothing's in the works because they can't figure out how to write a film script for it that even the late Ed Wood would have touched.

LOL

A recent story from a bonifide news site with all the required info including links and a correct title and you stuff it back into the chat abyss.

What NEWS/ACTIVISM rule was violated?

It was almost as much of a fiasco on FR as it was in the MSM.

One of the few of these weird stories that had a happy ending.

Ok, so she turned out to be a goof-ball and he was blind as a bat to the fact that she was a goof-ball not to mention being slightly batty himself but it didn't end with grieving families and rotting corpses.

So all in all a happy ending.
