• Did they meet at a support group for men with bad hair?

• Bad plastic surgery for Sigal, while Hoylman easily looks mid-50's.

• They seem very sweet. But those Lionel Richie jheri curls are so not working.

• They both seem very accomplished. I wonder if they are insufferable. Sigal has that "slightly surprised" look that seems like plastic surgery, yes.

• Sigal could win the "Josh Groban Lookalike" contest.

• In December 2010 their daughter, Silvia was born from mixed sperm. Brad remains a Christian. Silvia will be raised Jewish.

• [R1] you think everyone's parents are cretins like yours and everyone's famliy is a freak show who are a bunch of hillbillies like yours because you feel so alone. But don't feel so bad because you are famous! And your famliy happen to be very proud of you because you are a major hit at the carnival. People pay and stand in line for hours to see what kind of hideous creature that you are who came from chemical waste. Your famliy are so proud that you're voted the most grotesque phenomena in recorded history. That means a lot to your famliy.

• SLightly off topic, when will they invite us?

• It isn't the best work, is it? Thank God, though, they don't look like two matching creatures off a manufacturing line.

• The Jewish weddings used to be announced in Monday's paper. I used to get the Sunday and Monday Times when I was a boy, and dream of my own wedding (to another boy, of course). I definitely wanted the Monday announcement.

• r10, if you married a Goy Boy would the family sit shiva?

• How is a child conceived from "mixed" sperm? Only one spermatozoa can fertilize an egg.

• R12, I think the idea is by mixing it you don't know whose swimmer did the deed, so you can both claim paternity.

• Only ugly gay men get married. The attractive ones are too busy having sex.

• Hoylman's not ugly by any stretch. I dated him about 20 years ago, and as a 27 year old, he was as cute as cute can be. And he's smart. And he's aged well. He looks good for 47.

• Are you kidding, R15? He's not ugly, but he looks like he's turning 60 tomorrow.

• [R16]: maybe it's that big, mid-80s hairdo that makes him look older. But I see that he's still as pretentious as ever. And the spouse looks like a perpetually surprised John Oates, bless his heart.
