When I see a headline that reads "Scotty McCreery's Marriage Advice Is Spot-On," I immediately say, "Whoa there Sparky...tap the brakes."

After all, he's been married for what....a cup of coffee? <g>

However I will agree with the FIRST part of his admonition.

Scotty tells PopCulture.com, “Well, my advice for the wedding day and preparing for the wedding is just enjoy it, and, don’t get too caught up in if the napkins are the perfect color or everything. You’re gonna get married regardless; that’s the main thing for the day."

NOW, here's where we're gonna part ways.

"But then while you’re married, I will just say communication. That’s something I can always work on. Just ask Gabi.”

Uh...be careful with that communication thing.  I think you can communicate too much.  Just ask my on-air partner/wife, Debbie.

Then again, this particular issue may just be a me thing. <g>
