Congrats to Emil Jones

According to this column in the Defender, Senate President Emil Jones was married in Las Vegas over the weekend.

"Word" from Las Vegas is that Illinois Senate President Emil Jones Jr. and Dr. Lorrie Stone were wed Saturday at high noon during a lovely garden ceremony at the exclusive MonteLargo Village on the shores of sparkling Lake Las Vegas. The one-of-a-kind posh, luxury resort 17 miles from the Vegas Strip is set amid Nevada's desert mountains. The Mediterranean-themed village, we're told, offers exquisite shopping and dining, golfing, European-style gaming, championship golf and lakeside recreation.

Congratulations, Senator!

Also, while congrats may be in order, Jones' house was burgled while he was away. His car was also stolen but later recovered.
