    Sorry if this has already been posted today, but here's an interesting bride-related piece of news:

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31042857?GT1=43001

    BRIDGEPORT, Conn. - A Connecticut family has been saved from a house fire by a new bride who rushed inside through thick smoke while wearing her wedding gown.

    Officials say Georgette Clemons had just left her wedding reception Sunday evening when she spotted smoke coming from a Bridgeport home.

    Clemons got out of the car she was riding in and ran into the home. She says a woman was yelling about her animals and didn't want to leave, so she had to pull her out.

    As firefighters arrived and battled the blaze after members of the Eitelberg family were rescued, Clemons was nearby folding her blackened wedding dress.

    Clemons says she messed up her shoes, but says that's no big deal because everyone is safe.

    Amazing!  She's very brave. I would think that would be an extra dangerous thing to do in a wedding gown, which I would assume would be very flammable!
