Some folks love the old school looks, but digging through the bins at second-hand stores makes their skin crawl. Others are overwhelmed by the time commitment it takes to find that one perfect Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Silk tunic top from the 70s.

Sure, the National Bridal Show might not be starting for another couple of weeks (and Canada's Bridal Show has already ended), but that’s not stopping Random House from holding their own wedding-themed event on Monday evening.

It was only a few days ago that (now former) Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was given the support of the President. But now, the day after the Republicans were sent packing in the House of Representatives and (it looks like) the Senate, Rummy is packing his bags as well.

For free no less. And if there's something to be said about free tickets, it's that you can't complain about the seats. And we actually couldn't.
