I think Miss Manners flubs it . . . again!

In a recent Miss Manners column, a bride-to-be expressed frustration that so many people asked her if this was her first marriage. I can't imagine people doing that, but she wanted to know what her answer should be without having to tell them she had, indeed, been married before.

Miss Manners said her reply should be, "Well, I don't make a habit of it."

I think the better answer is, "I prefer to think of it as my last."
