So tell me, is this really true? I've never heard about this.
beautiful
Sunday River, Maine,
where folks gear up
for the
Wife Carrying
Championships!
On Saturday, Oct. 6, men carried their wives or other women
over an obstacle course where teams compete for a grand prize
of the wife's weight in Redhook beer and five times the wife's
weight in cash, plus a chance to compete in the World
Championships in Finland. 2006 winners John and Tess
Farra of Owasso, Oklahoma set the crowd on fire with a narrow victory in the final heat and a course record of 1:15.1. The Farra's overcame fierce competition from 35 teams-- including the

Let your anger be your energy.
Age is a wise thing to possess.
Faith is connected to hope and hope means believing in spite of the evidence and then watching the evidence change.
Slowing down gives us a sense of who we are and helps us pay attention to little gracious details.

It is true. I posted an article about it at the old KV. It's pretty funny to watch. I suppose that's one way to support your wife.
