I just got invited to a stranger's wedding. When I opened up my mail this evening, I found an invitation - properly addressed to me, so it's not the post office's fault - for a wedding in Bahamas in January. Neither the Bride's nor the Groom's names look familiar.

Most likely, they know a Scott Duffy who lives in Toronto, and looked up my name in the phone book. Still, you think they would have checked before blindly sending me mail.

I wonder what would happen if I decided to go? I mean, return the RSVP, book a plane ticket and hotel, and show up at the reception. And when they realize I am not the same “Scott Duffy” they meant to invite, what can they do? I'm here, the other Scott Duffy isn't, and I've even paid a lot of money to be there.

Of course, as funny as that would be, it would also make me look stupid. So I probably will not be attending this event. But, whoever you are, thanks for thinking of me.

And of course, if a total stranger DID mean to invite ME, send me an email to introduce yourself, please.
