At this rate soon Wes and Joe will be the only straights in the village!

It's 'Little Laramie'.

I'm assuming Wes only stays with Edna for her baking? :laugh:
Regarding Wes and his need to:
Quote
The officiating sheriff must keep  :-X  :-X  :-X

Now, a $500 dollar slap on the wrist is insignificant when you have the fabulous wealth of Ellery, so surely Wes could go ahead with that.

Although, Sherriff Jim Pond, the current Sherriff of Laramie, was of the opinion that such an act would be met with instant dismissal, loss of pension, and a 95% chance of jail-time.  He also opined that it would make Wes

[uote]"a corrupt sheriff who has no regard for the law, his peers and the people he is supposed to set a good example to."[/quote]

Which doesn't sound like our Wes at all!  :(
Hope that's helpful.

PS Are we sure about Joe? Maybe he's sublimating something with all those muffins.

I think he is sublimating his desire for spaghetti and meatballs with the muffins.

The delmarriage has occurred. So I would say the rings can go in the gallery.

Delmarriage...

I do too. And I think it is a very real phenomenon, too. My husband (then fiance) and I had a scene very, very similar to what you wrote for Ennis and Ellery. It was the same situation (the day we picked up our rings) and the same place (ie, in bed). We tried them on, didn't want to take them off, I cried. We wore them all night then the next morning, took them off, put them away, and didn't even look at them again until the "real" wedding. But something happened that night which finalized everything between us. No more cold feet, no more doubts...
