Michael Vick... who will you pick?

Dear Michael Vick -

It seems the world of daytime television is fighting over you. Who will you pick?

If you know what's good for you, Oprah should be your first choice.

From one HPT'er to another - take the advice.

Sincerely,
Rebecca

How much would you pay to be a part of my wedding?

My friend, Sara, just introduced me via Facebook to a Bengals football fan who is auctioning off his allegiance to the team. The highest bidder will determine what team the guys gotta root for. Right now, he's going for $631.

Check it out.

This has got to me the smartest thing I've ever heard of.

So, I was thinking... dangerous I know... and my mother will probably kill me...

Should I attempt auctioning off an invitation to my wedding? A spot in my wedding party? Someone to do a reading at the ceremony?

I've developed a list of pros and cons to help me make my decision:

Pros:
1. If someone were to pay a large sum of money to attend/be a part of my wedding, it would certainly help with the costs
2. Any person who is willing to pay a large sum of money to attend a wedding probably has a good amount of money - it pays to have rich friends
3. This idea would have potential to get some press - and with press comes connections - and connections are always a positive
4. A story to remember for the rest of our lives, indeed, and our friends will tell their friends who will tell their friends who will tell their friends - we'll become legendary
5. We may need another groomsmen

Cons:
1. This person could be absolutely crazy and ruin my entire wedding - maybe even a psycho-killer, like the ones off of Criminal Minds
2. This person could just be trying to pick up a date, which would be dangerous for all of our single friends (although this could go both ways - maybe we needs some singles at the wedding?)


There seem to be more pros than cons... hmm... what do you think?
