Imagine this: You spend $4-grand on a wedding dress, only to have it tear in front of the entire congregation... mortification!! An Italian woman is suing the dress maker for $40-grand after her dress ripped at the alter exposing her bum. The priest finished the ceremony, "but of course she was not able to take any proper photographs of the ceremony because she was semi-naked." Because of privacy laws in Italy, the bride's name and designer's name were not revealed to the press.
Find the lowest gas prices
here, and while trying to find gas below $4/gallon, take a look at why $4/gallon gas prices ARE A GOOD THING from Time magazine.
Four-Day Workweeks: Companies, colleges and governments are moving to four-day weeks.
Less Pollution: As people consume less fuel in America, vehicle emissions should drop.
Fewer Traffic Deaths: We know that higher gas prices cause many of us to slow down and drive less -- which means fewer people die. Early research into 2006 accident data suggests that many lives have already been spared. If gas remains at $4 per gal. for a year or more, expect as many as 1,000 fewer fatalities a month.
Cheaper Insurance: If you are driving less, you could qualify for lower car-insurance rates.
Less Traffic: Travel on all roads dropped 2.1% in the first four months of 2008, according to the Federal Highway Administration.
More Cops on the Beat: Across the country, police bike and foot patrols are up, and cops are being told to cut down on idling their cruisers. In Shelby, North Carolina, police officers have been ordered to park their cars for 15 minutes every two hours and to stop taking patrol cars out for lunch.
Less Obesity: People walk more, bike more and eat out less when gas is pricey. A permanent $1 hike in prices may cut obesity 10%

DIVORCE PAPERS FILED Alex Rodriguez's wife, Cynthia, filed divorce papers yesterday claiming Madonna as the final straw. But Earle Lilly, Cynthia's attorney, says the relationship was not sexual, but more like "an affair of the heart." He says A-Rod was smitten with Madonna, but she is not the main cause of the break-up or even mentioned in the divorce papers. The couple has had a series of problems for "a good while" and the Madonna stories were "the last straw."
