Bono: Saint or Dickhead?

[Drunk Monk]

I'm not sure which side of this debate that supports, but as the token DOOM rastafarian, I had to post it here. Yea mon...

It was the secret of the century, but don't forget, the century is young. And never mind what you learned online by searching Google. There were not 600 guests at Larry Page and Lucy Southworth's wedding; that's about four times the real figure. And Carl Page, the bridegroom's brother, was the best man, not Necker Island owner Richard Branson. Branson's job was to preside over the vows.

Some tiny details: The bride and groom had specified they wanted no presents. Festivities started in the Caribbean on Friday morning. The wedding was on Sunday, the bride's gown was by Vera Wang, and Alice Waters catered the wedding dinner. The bride looked beautiful, the food was great, and the couple is "very much in love," said O, which stands for observer.

After the ceremony, the bride and groom changed into swimsuits. Their version of the traditional first dance was a first wind-surf together. ("They are very talented wind surfers," said O.) All furniture used for the party was donated later to a nearby children's facility.

The guest list was "mostly family, or family-oriented," with a few billionaires, "but also college friends." Guest Bono brought along a poem he'd written for the newlyweds. He also did an impromptu musical performance with the Wailers (who used to play with Bob Marley).
