In honor of Valentine's Day, a radio station in Charleston, W. Va., is running a contest that offers a free divorce lawyer to an unhappy spouse. The contest ends at 4 p.m. on Feb. 14, and the winner's name is to be drawn at 5 p.m. the same day.
The WKLC-FM contest contemplates a relatively simple case, however, and the station, better known as Rock 105, also cautions contestants not to seek the prize unless they really do want to divorce, reports the Associated Press. Rusty Webb, a Charleston lawyer, will handle the filing.
More details are provided on the radio station's website, which features an illustration of an apparently warring bridal couple on a blood-stained wedding cake.

take this as another example that divorce has changed so much more in the past 5 years than the last 20. Like the station said, sure they can give away concert tickets but they are acknowledging the growing rate of divorce in this country. I do not think they are making fun of it as much as nodding at it’s growing acceptance. I work for www.firstwivesworld.com, it is an online community for women navigating through the various stages of divorce and life thereafter. Our theme for today is “10 things divorced women can love about Valentines day” check out the article at:
