I guess that's why in Minnesota they say "life's a beach."  Meanwhile, the news from Las Vegas is that Sunday will be the most popular wedding day of the year.  Because it's as easy as 1-2-3-1-2-3 to remember your anniversary.  That reminds me of my clients long ago, who hurried to Las Vegas to get married before the end of the year because they thought married couples paid less tax.  Told them to always check with their tax guy before making such a move.
