Answer:
I had the privilege to attend a wedding recently at The Woodfire Lodge in Brillion, Wi. The wedding was a country themed wedding. All of the men and women in the bridal party wore country western style clothing from their hats down to their cowboy boots. When I arrived to set up for the reception, I met the bridal party. I knew a few of them. That’s when I met the best man. The best man was a 27 year old named Wes. Wes has downs syndrome. It was instantly clear to me how sweet and sincere he is. He introduced himself proudly as “The Best MAN”. He was beaming with pride as he told me who he was. I realized how important this was to him and it really touched my heart. There was a young lady at the wedding with downs syndrome. I found out Wes has been dating her for six years. I thought to myself, wow, Wes is a stud! So later that afternoon the dinner starts at the reception. It’s time for the toasts. The maid of honor goes up first and gives a fantastic speech that was funny and appropriate.
Then they hand the microphone to Wes for his speech. He started off strong, but then the emotion and pride got the best of him. As Wes got more emotional, everyone in the room did with him! It was impossible not to get choked up as he expressed how much being chosen as the best man meant to him. There was not a dry eye in the house as he said his speech. It was beautiful.
Later on I got a chance to meet the grooms mother. I told her how impressed I was with both of her sons. She told me that Brandon, the groom, chose Wes over a year ago. Ever since that day, Wes has been introducing himself as The Best Man! He even answers the phone “Best Man speaking”.
Occasionally we get to be a part of something that reminds us of what is really important and special in our lives. Brandon is a great man. He chose Wes because he understood how much it would mean to him. I love Brandon for that. Wes is a blessing. He keeps us grounded in what is most important in life.
I am thankful for the opportunity to be a witness to something so beautiful.

Typical of the monsters and guardians of hell, Dante's Minos is an amalgam of figures from classical sources who is completed with a couple of the poet's personal touches. His Minos may in fact be a combination of two figures of this name--both rulers of Crete--one the grandfather of the other. The older Minos, son of Zeus and Europa, was known--because of his wisdom and the admired laws of his kingdom-- as the "favorite of the gods." This reputation earned him the office-- following his death--of supreme judge of the underworld. He was thus charged, as Virgil attests, with verifying that the personal accounting of each soul who came before him corresponded with what was written in the urn containing all human destinies: "He shakes the urn and calls on the assembly of the silent, to learn the lives of men and their misdeeds" (Aen. 6.432-3). The second Minos, grandson of the first, exacted harsh revenge on the Athenians (who had killed his son Androgeos) by demanding an annual tribute of fourteen youths (seven boys and seven girls) as a sacrificial offer to the Minotaur, the hybrid monster lurking in the labyrinth built by Daedalus.
Minos' long tail, which he wraps around his body a number of times equal to the soul's assigned level (circle) of hell (Inf. 5.11-12), is Dante's invention. How do you think the judged souls travel to their destined location in hell for eternal punishment? Might Minos' tail be somehow involved in this unexplained event? Dante leaves this detail to our imagination.
The original Italian of the first line describing Minos --"Stavvi Minòs orribilmente, e ringhia" (Inf.5.4)--is a wonderful example of onomatopoeia<span> (the sound of the words imitating their meaning) as the repeated trilling of the r's in "orribilmente e ringhia" evokes the frightening sound of a growling beast.
