Trivia: I went to Sepang when we went to KL.

We stayed at a place that was built entirely over the water in the shape of a palm tree.

You can go to the F1 circuit and race go karts on a replica track built to the side of the F1 circuit.

For some god unknown reason I have that Ace of Base song 'The Sign' in my head this morning.

I think I now have an idea of what the fiery pits of hell might entail.

Well, except for the heat bit and I haven't seen anyone with a pitchfork but this is Queensland so I can expect both of these before lunch time.

My 14 year old daughter and her friend were down town shopping earlier today when they came across someone preaching against ssm and handing out pamphlets. They stopped and asked him why he was against it. He said a proper marriage was between a man and a woman for the purpose of reproducing. My daughter says some people can't have children though which he agreed with. So she says are you saying they don't have a proper marriage then? This caught him off guard and his only response was you need to behave yourself little girl. Lol. Best yet was they recorded it so I was able to watch it back. What I can't understand is why he thought it was a good idea to hand out pamphlets to the girls as they are obviously under voting age

I don't understand why people who can't (or don't want to) have kids feel the need to get married either. What's the point if you're not going to have kids?

And when you've had kids and they move out of home, then your job is done so might as well get divorced .

Why go to the effort? It's easier to just stay married.

Of course, many do get divorced when faced with the empty nest. Especially the ones who only stayed together to benefit the children.

Good point.

I've been married for 12 yrs. Before we got married we both knew that we didn't want kids and that position has only firmed as we have both gotten older.

Our wedding was really low key but to be honest I reckon we both could have done without it. Not really sure why we felt the need to get married.

Bartman's probably seen the photos though.

Gronk tells me the purpose of a marriage is so people can get dressed up and eat cake, so maybe that's the need you and your wife were trying to fill Gary?

Yeh, but you can't have a wedding without getting married. Well, I guess you can, but the guests tend to feel a strange mix of disappointment and embarrassment.

I think the eat cake part is the only bit you quoted accurately. The rest you made up. Do you work for Bauer Media ?
