In a fairy-tale setting, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes exchanged wedding vows Saturday in a glowing 15th-century castle in this medieval lakeside town.

The evening ceremony was performed by a Scientology minister in front of more than 150 relatives and friends, the couple's publicists said.

eeeecchhh!

[Not A Snowbird]

Good. Now can the media shut up about them?

[dfwgator]

Well la deee freakin' da!

[cripplecreek]

What in the name of Xenu is wrong with those people.

[Clintonfatigued]

I'm surprised that they went through with it. Do they think that the large expenditures and A-List guest list will give it credibility?

[HitmanLV]

They appear to have a large, hairy, Japanese newborn. Strange.

[Clintonfatigued]

The National Enquirer says that another baby is on the way. Of course, The National Enquirer isn't a giant of credibility, but neither is CBS News.

"They appear to have a large, hairy, Japanese newborn. Strange."
Well, here is a description of a Ravenna monster [1513] from a contemporary chronicle:
"Another great wonder was seen in the city of Ravenna, where a monster was born with a horn on his head, the wings of a bat, one foot like a bird of prey, the other like a human foot. It had an eye on its knee, and was of both sexes! It had a mark of 'Y" on its breast, and an appearance of a cross, with a crescent beneath - which signs, according to my lords the philosophers and prognosticators, signify many things!" [Monstrelet chronicle, 3, 229].
So, let my lords the scientology philosophers interpret their "large, hairy Japanese newborn" as well. Indeed, in comparison with the Ravenna one it looks like they got off easily.

I really, really don't care about stuff like this.

I don't mind your ping list, but can you take me off if you ping stuff if they are about celeb stuff.

[ExTexasRedhead]

Considering what's going on in the world, this is ridiculous. I could care less what these two never never land types do.

[Clintonfatigued]

I don't normally ping on celeb stuff, only when they're highly unusual and amusing (and this marriage is the biggest joke of the year).

[Lawgvr1955]

...and this marriage is the biggest joke of the year.

I heard on the radio yesterday, the ceremony was to be performed by a Scientology "minister" and that Italy does not recognize the marriage.

Sounds to me its a "non-sanctioned" union if that is the case.

And I quote:

Frankly my dear I don't give a damn.

[Irisshlass]

You have to pick on a baby? She is a very adorable pretty little girl to me.

[HitmanLV]

I'm not picking on her - she is cute. She just looks too big and too hairy to be a newborn to me. Oh, and she's Japanese, and neither Cruise nor Holmes are Japanese.

[GSlob]

Picking? I have not even seen the photo. I took the HitmanLV's description at face value, and tried to put it in a historical context. You, as a lord/lady scientology philosopher, provided an interpretation "a very adorable pretty little girl". The point was, though, that you were supposed to find what she signifies, not what she is.

[hsmomx3]

Uhm--I will bet she had a sperm donor since he might not be her type if you know what I mean.

Fox News kept saying today that they exchanged bizarre vows. I wish they would elaborate on that.

[martin_fierro]

The groomsmen were tastefully attired.

[mplsconservative]

LOLOL! They appear to have a breast implant..in the...er, uh, wrong place.

Could be fitting for a TomKat scientology wedding though. :)
