This article goes over the idea of planning a wedding over the Internet. Thanks to Web 2.0 and social media, the days of hiring a professional wedding planner are long behind us.
Tying the knot is one of those unique occasions that is planned out to the finest detail, from the flavor of icing on the cake to number of flower petals in each bridesmaid’s hair. Okay, some folks plan a little too many details, but regardless, weddings are typically one of the most highly coordinated events in human nature.

As fine as the intentions of the educational
system are, there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all teaching system.
There is a balance to be found between the structured education and the
creativity and individualism of our children.
I’m getting a second education.
No, I haven’t gone back to school yet again. I’m watching,
through the keen eye of a parental observer, the experience my son has as he
walks his way through elementary school. I may be more skittish than most after
all, even in my most enlightened moments, I witness my son’s experience through
a lens that is colored by the memory of my own school days.
