But alas, not too many people would really want to sit back and watch something like that live unless they get a slice of the wedding cake afterwards :roll: That said, I plan on taking some of the video and photo footage afterwards and mixing it to a rendition of "Rock Me Amadeus". That should be good for a few dozen hits from family, right? I think Reiko would give me the biggest hit of all :P If there was enough of a demand, I would have set up a streaming video of the ceremony and reception.

Our friend, Mike, is gallivanting around Japan right now, so I'm seeing him far less than I did when he was online in Canada. I'd rather get a beer from the fridge and "go dancing" in Second Life with people I share common interests with, than physically go out to a restaurant, not be able to drink because I drive, and talk to people who have little in common with me. The internet has given me the freedom to work anywhere... although my mortgage keeps me here. :???: With your wedding just hours away, Mami and I wish you and Reiko a great day, although with your fondness of all things online, we're a bit surprised you're not beaming live, streaming video of the ceremony across the globe for everyone to see! :razz: I’m at the point where I’m happy to stay here in Japan and show my parents in England their grandson via Skype than have the hassle and cost of visiting them physically.
