Is she hot now or what?
With all the talk about where you were when the Challenger exploded twenty years ago, I remember watching this story unfold even more vividly. It still makes me feel old, though.
Congrats to her and her new husband.

MIDLAND, Texas -- "Baby Jessica," whose dramatic rescue from an abandoned Texas well was televised across the country 18 years ago, got married in a private ceremony, People magazine reported on its Web site.
Crews struggled for 58 hours to rescue Jessica McClure after she fell into an 8-inch-wide pipe in October 1987.
The celebrity magazine reported that McClure, now 19, married Daniel Morales, 32, at a rural church outside Midland on Saturday. A sign on the door instructed guests not to take pictures or video, the magazine said.
The two met at a day-care center where Morales' sister worked with McClure, according to the magazine.
The case of 18-month-old Jessica created a nationwide sensation. Emergency crews rescued her -- a dramatic moment covered on live television -- after digging a parallel shaft and then breaking through the wall of the well.
Is she hot now or what?
I would assume she is trailer trash. How I came to that assumption is beyond me.
So she was in an eight-inch pipe...now some guy is giving her his eight-inc....
Nah...
(I sort of threw this out as bait for someone to find her myspace profile and show us)
"Well," I've got some time to kill. Here goes.
It's her in 2004..."well" according to Fark.com that is.
this, I ain't looking through 139 MySpace profiles.
Although some of the Jessicas in the Midland area are pretty hot.

MIDLAND, Texas – Jessica McClure, the toddler who captured the nation's heart and evoked its prayers 18 years ago from 22 feet below the surface of this oil patch town, is a married woman.
McClure – now 19 and a student at Midland College – was married Saturday to Daniel Morales, 32, at a Church of Christ in a small rural community outside of the town. The couple met at a day-care center where Morales’s sister worked with the bride.
Inside, the church sanctuary was decorated with loops of white tulle for the private afternoon ceremony. At the altar was a white archway, and suspended underneath were two open hearts, mirroring the interlocking hearts on the couple’s wedding invitation. Posted on the door was a request made to guests: "No Cameras or Picture Phones! No Video Cameras" – a message in step with the extremely private McClure family.
"She's always been that way, just laid-back and not a lot of fanfare," says Cedie Proctor, an aunt of Jessica’s.
McClure – known to the world as Baby Jessica – was 18 months old when she fell into a narrow, abandoned well in the back yard of her aunt's home in 1987. Within hours, scores of rescue workers were feverishly boring into the earth, hoping to reach her before she suc bed to the cold. After 58 hours and with a global audience, two paramedics plucked Jessica from the well and brought her to safety.
At 25, McClure stands to earn a trust fund reportedly valued in excess of $1 million, made up of contributions from well-wishers around the world.
"She's 'Baby Jessica,' everybody’s baby," Morales recently told PEOPLE.
Those who know McClure say she's a quiet person and that the family long ago decided to strongly resist attention for the famous event that occurred almost 20 years ago. One of the only clues to the impending wedding was a Wal-Mart registry.
"She hardly talked," says Abby Casas, who went to Greenwood County High School with Jessica, who graduated in 2004. "But everybody knew who she was."
She has taken the first step towards divorce.
Props to the new husband and the 13 year age gap. He got to play the field for at least ten years AND tap a chick who probably hasnt.![]()
And you're banging everybody's baby...good job there, Mo.
That AND she's gonna be loaded, the mother er is living the dream.At 25, McClure stands to earn a trust fund reportedly valued in excess of $1 million, made up of contributions from well-wishers around the world.
She was in Maxim not too long ago.
She'd definitely get stuck in the pipe now.
That dude is living the dream indeed. What hispanic teenage boy doesn't dream of marrying some loaded white chick and living it up on easy street?
Nah, that wasn't really her.
She's getting a million bucks for getting stuck in a well as a kid? Well, I know how I'll pay for my kids college education.
That was fake.
Keep in mind she's white, if some minority baby fell down a well. People would be wondering how parents let a baby fall down a well. I could see the news, "Day 2134 of the missing Aruba white girl who ended up being loose an d her mom thought she was an angel, coming up after the commercials, what happens when a mexican child and a well get together? Hilarity."
Yeah, I just looked it up on museum of hoaxes - unfortunately the page isn't loading.
Was there a story behind it, or were they just being stupid?
It was just a fake "Where are they now?" thing. I know I have that issue somewhere (it was Stuff BTW. I'm pretty sure I even remember it saying on the page it was fake.
They had some hot chick in the shot and a fake interview.

Jason, you are NOT ALLOWED TO PUT OUR CHILDREN DOWN A WELL. Dear lord, why do I have to spell that out?
As for the other, I hope they'll be happy, but I'm always creeped out by such a big age difference, especially when the girl is under 25 . . . I've never seen it work out, but I suppose it has somewhere. . .
The CHallenger explosion and this make you feel old?
try remembering when you were just a kid and watching and hearing about the Moon Landing in '69.

I was watching the Challenger on TV at my elementary school when it happened, very sad.
On a bright note, that means you probably saw Joe Willie and the Jets win the Super Bowl that January.
