McKenna and Timberlake: Bonded for life?

Seventh-grader Ryan McKenna will maybe get married one day.  At that ceremony, he and his partner might vow to be bonded for life.  That’s what has traditionally warranted “unto death do us part.”

These days, however, you just have to be in the right place at the right time.  Such “rightness” (as opposed to righteousness) is largely determined by society’s latest whim.

Today’s society is big on the Super Bowl and big on Justin Timberlake.  Put the two together, and you allegedly can’t go wrong.  So if you’re at the Super Bowl and Timberlake dances up to you, you’re good as gold. And gold is right up there with (beyond?) marriage.

So if you're seventh-grader Ryan McKenna and Justin Timberlake is coming your way, you must whip out a camera to prepare for the “wedding” pics.  The great moment has arrived and must be immortalized on social media.

Fame rubbed off on McKenna (if only for 15 minutes) as he and Timberlake were “bonded for life.”  At least that’s how talking heads have viewed it.  And who knows?  When McKenna is 95, he might not remember his partner’s name, but chances are that he will remember Timberlake’s.
