True life, stranger than fiction
-- millionairess Sharon Tendler recently had a very fishy wedding, to Cindy. We're sure this will outrage the right
wing, but not because Cindy's a she -- Cindy is actually a he. Confused yet? Cindy also happens to be a dolphin. The
twain had a, uh, seaside ceremony on a dock in the
southern Israeli port town of Eilat and tied the mariner's knot. Sharon fully expects Cindy to play the field and have
lots of baby dolphins with "all the others girls" in the ocean, which seems like a highly enlighted approach
to me. I consider myself a fairly hip social egalitarian but I've got to admit that interspecies marriage is a
challenging new development, and lord knows that in culture at large folks will still get het up that Aunt Esther and
Aunt Bea who've already lived together for 30 years want to go down to the courthouse and get it formalized. But you
know, who am I to squelch more love in this world? God knows we need as much as we can get. Congrats to the happy
couple.Woman marries... dolphin?

3. I truly thought this was bogus when I first read it but then it turned out to be try.. go figure. It really should not surprise me as I was reading recently how a lady in the UK was fighting in court to have her dog as her legal beneficiary to her entire estate.
Do not get me wrong, I love animal.. I have a cat, dog and bird but I draw the line at marriage or inheritance. That however is truly up to each individual.. who am I to judge.
I did have to laugh at this statement about the dolphin marriage though...
...according to Sharon , she arranged a pre-nup, which allows Cindy to ?play with all the other girls? in the ocean.
Lucky for the dolphin.. :)

5. The world is going completely crazy. I too thought this was a crazy joke...but when it showed up on 50 separate, reputable news websites I was convinced.
One can only wonder if they consummated their marriage and/or plan on having kids. I suppose you could ask her - but maybe we're better off just wondering.
