Dear Cr-Abby from Texas Bridal Mom

September 3, 2008
DEAR ABBY: My daughter, who is being married in three months, mentioned to me that her fiancĂ©'s friends have a tradition of covering the newlyweds' car with condoms. Whatever happened to tin cans and a “Just Married” sign?
I'm no prude, but I'm appalled at the tackiness of it. There will be grandmothers and children attending the wedding. My daughter agrees that it's poor taste but doesn't think there is anything she can do about it. Should I stay out of it, or go clean off the car myself during the reception?

Dear Texas Tea Totterer,

News Flash this just in....it's 2008
(much as Cr-Abby hates to admit it).

The movie Steel Magnolias was done 15 years ago,...dont you remember the Sally Field/Julia Roberts interface about the Armadillo Grooms Cake and the Condom Clad Cadillac?

This is also a Green time,...we recycle cans, we dont drag them behind a car and yell "Yeehaw".

My advice; During the reception rather than sneaking out to "clean the car",...go to the bar and take about 6 shots of Jose Cuervo to kill that Giant Potato Bug that has crawled up your ass.

Cr-Abby
