Oops!

In my excitement at being able to type the name of the flying Finn, I, once
again, have forgotten the OSO:

Am I the only person in the world who feels obliged, whenever a good friend
offers the earth-shattering news of an impending marriage, to utter aloud
the unmatchable sentiment:  RAISE HIGH THE ROOFBEAM CARPENTERS   ?

(And/or, given the somewhat sad--if not disastrous--conclusion of the events
invoked by the above story, should I think about seeking out other salutations?)

Cheers,

Paul
