Wow, no gay marriage and already people are marrying animals! Actually, I believe that gay marriage isn't legal in Israel...but marrying a dolphine is. You religious nuts are a riot! And so cute!http://lfpress.ca/newsstand/News/International/2006/01/01/1374907-sun.html
JERUSALEM -- Sharon Tendler met Cindy 15 years ago. She said it was love at first sight. This week she finally took the plunge and proposed. The lucky "guy" plunged right back.
In a modest ceremony at Dolphin Reef in the southern Israeli port of Eilat, Tendler, a 41-year-old British citizen, apparently became the world's first person to "marry" a dolphin.
Dressed in a white dress, a veil and pink flowers in her hair, Tendler got down on one knee on the dock and gave Cindy a kiss. And a piece of herring.
"He's the love of my life," she said yesterday.
Tendler, who said she imports clothes and promotes rock bands in England, has visited Israel several times a year since first meeting the dolphin.
While she acknowledged the "wedding" had no legal bearing, she said it reflected her feelings for the bottlenosed, 35-year-old object of her affection.
"It's not a bad thing. It's just something that we did because I love him, but not in the way that you love a man. It's just a pure love that I have for this animal," she said.
While she keeps open the option of "marrying human," she said she is a "one-dolphin woman."
Wow. That must have been a pretty lonely lady. Dolphins are pretty interesting. I wouldn't mind eating one. I don't really wanna know what their kids will be like tho.
