The wedding toast...
A couple of days ago (before the big hack), Shepcat had requested that I post what I said in my toast at my friend Bill’s wedding. I’ve decided not to attempt to copy everything that I said there, but I will post something that was present in the speech (even though I didn’t actually write it).
It began like any monologue: a couple (or three) good jokes to get the audience going, and then a quick turn into something more serious. My goal with this speech was to say something profoundly different — something drunken wedding guests, waiting to cut the cake, aren’t prepared for. In this case, I read a short benediction for my friends, Bill and Rocio.
And it went a little something like this:
May your love abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruits of righteousness which come through the love of Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. Amen.That’s it. And, to tell you the truth, I don’t even remember where I found it.
Bill and Rocio are currently in Jamaica for their honeymoon. I hope they’re having a great time.

(I must say, though, that my jokes were pretty killer.)
It’s excellent, Tim, and so much better than the usual “Hey, Bill, remember the time we stole that goat…” brand of wedding toast.
