She probably wanted it so that she could shoot her mouth off afterwards, in regard to her wedding presents.

It was to send a message to her husband of what he could expect in the event of problems.

I hope she wore a helmet and appropriate padding, especially if the discussion might get heated.

Yesterday, during the early morning program on my local CBS TV station, the Meteorologist stated,
