When they develop the Virtual Reality Honeymoon, then I'll be
impressed.

| I thought they already had that kind of stuff in the
dodgy adverts at the back of some of the trashier PC magazines?

| A similar VR wedding took place in California last summer. It was
published in an issue of the US edition of "Digital Today" -- July
or August of 1994, I think.

It was also featured on an episode of "Beyond 2000".

| The "Virtual Wedding" actually took place at CyberMind here in San
Francisco, CA, USA. I remember seeing the Digital logo prominently
displayed in the photo in the newspaper at the time.
CyberMind is a virtual reality game arcade where you strap on a headset
and "walk" around "shooting" other competitors. Pretty neat, actually.

pretty sick actually.
shooting people, real or virtual has never seemed to me to be something
we should teach kids to do.

Maybe they're shooting photographs of each other??

I don't know, I think it's a good idea to teach kids to shoot in self
defense. That's what mine will learn.

| I'm confused. Digital had something to do with a VR wedding where people went
around shooting each other?

Must've been a virtual shotgun wedding.

I'm proud to be a Tennessee Hillbilly (I'm from scenic, downtown
Pigeon Forge, home of Dollywood!). My great-grandparents were even
1st cousins! If that isn't a hillbilly, what is?

Dollywood...Pigeon Forge...Gatlinburg....Dixie Stampede...and the list
goes on. Tennessee Hillbilly all the way and proud to be one. Born
here and you can tell from my "southern" accent. Now if I could just
get the figure that the girls have on Hee Haw then I would be happy.

| >> Grandpa John...huh?? Sorry don't get it.
That should probably be "Grandpa, John." A reference to a family tree
something like that described in the old song "I'm My Own Grandpa," about a guy
who married a widow, and his father married the widow's adult daughter. He was
his own grandfather, his father was his son-in-law, his son was his uncle,
etc., etc., etc....

| Nope sorry don't have that situation in my family. I may be a
"Tennessee Hillbilly" but I didn't share a bed with any cousins etc..
Oh and by the way...I have all my teeth and wear shoes too!!
