    According to AP:

    Tens of thousands of people have attended the funeral in Northern Ireland of a 27-year-old schoolteacher strangled on her honeymoon on the resort island of Mauritius. Mourners packed narrow country lanes leading to a Catholic Church to honor Michaela Harte McAreavey. Her widower, Gaelic footballer John McAreavey, and father Mickey Harte led pallbearers carrying her coffin. She was buried in her wedding dress. McAreavey was known as Ulster's candidate in the 2004 Rose of Tralee, Ireland's traditional beauty pageant, and as a match-day sidekick to Harte, a national championship-winning Gaelic football coach. Mauritian police say she was strangled a week ago after encountering burglars in her honeymoon suite. Three hotel employees have been charged in connection with her slaying.

    Denise and Mark Duffield-Thomas go snorkeling after renewing their wedding vows for the 80th time at Knuckle Reef on Nov. 7, on the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. As the winners of 'The Ultimate Job - Honeymoon Testers' competition for Ireland's Runaway Bride and Groom, they are visiting Queensland on the last leg of the 12-month honeymoon promotion testing wedding venues across the world. As part of the promotion, the couple will attempt to break the World Guinness Record for the most 'wedding vows' renewed by a couple. The record currently stands at 83.

    While this sounds like a ton of fun to me, one person here in the newsroom remarked that he would get tired of renewing his vows every few days, and that any couple who would attempt such a feat would probably end up divorced at the end of the year. (He will remain nameless in the event that his significant other is reading.) How about you? Would you want to give this a try?
