No, really!



quote:
Till death do us part? An unusual wedding ceremony was held in the southern resort town of Eilat on Wednesday, as Sharon Tendler, a 41-years-old Jewish millionaire from London married her beloved Cindy, a 35-years-old dolphin, Israel's leading newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported Thursday.

The groom, a resident of the Eilat dolphin reef, met Tendler 15 years ago, when she first visited the resort. The British rock concert producer took a liking to the dolphin and has made a habit of traveling to Eilat two or three times a year and spending time with her underwater sweetheart.

[...]

And so on Wednesday afternoon, the thrilled bride, wearing a white dress, walked down the dock before hundreds of astounded visitors and kneeled down before her groom, who was waiting in the water.

Cindy, escorted by his fellow best-men dolphins, swam over to Tendler and she hugged him, whispered sweet nothings in his ear, and kissed him in front of the cheering crowd.

After the ceremony was sealed with some mackerels, Tendler was tossed into the water by her friends so that she could swim with her new husband.

"I'm the happiest girl on earth," the bride said as she chocked back tears of emotion. "I made a dream come true, and I am not a pervert," she stressed.

[...]

"But what kind of children would they have?" one of the children in the crowd asked his father.

Sorry, I already started a thread about that here. Nobody seems to want to respond to mine either.

Babblers are a tough crowd to impress. Maybe if it was a same-sex marriage?

I wonder if Cindy had to crush the glass with his flipper.

Anyway, Mazeltov!

(look for lots of medals for the Isreali swim team in about 20 years)

Did ya hear the one about the farm boy who was caught having sex with a sheep?

When he was asked if it was a ram or an ewe, he replied, "An ewe or course, I'm not a pervert!"

From the book, "Disorder In The Court." This was said in open court, word for word:

quote:
Q: On the morning of July 25th, did you walk from the farmhouse down the footpath to the cow shed?

A: I did.

Q: As a result, you passed within a few yards of the duck pond?

A: I did.

Q: And did you observe anything?

A: I did. [Witness remains silent.]

Q: Well, could you tell the Court what you saw?

A: I saw George.

Q: You saw George -------, the defendant in this case?

A: Yes.

Q: Can you tell the Court what George ------- was doing?

A: Yes. [Witness remains silent.]

Q: Well, would you kindly do so?

A: He had his thing stuck into one of the ducks.

Q: His "thing"?

A: You know... his thing. His di-- I mean, his penis.

Q: You passed by the duck pond, the light was good, you were sober, you have good eyesight, and you saw this clearly?

A: Yes.

Q: Did you say anything to him?

A: Of course I did!

Q: What did you say to him?

A: Morning, George.

How long do dolphins live? Because 35 sounds pretty old in dolphin years...Is she just marrying him so that when he dearly departs his watery life she'll get to take all of his hard earned brine shrimp and beautiful sea shells!?

I'm surprised the Orthodox lobby hasn't been all over this. I mean, won't they be worrying that if they let people get away with this sort of thing, it's just a slippery slope that could lead to (gasp) gay marriage, and possibly even dancing?
