"I am happy," said her mother Dyuti Bhoi, who has two other daughters and two sons to marry off. "She was always the crazy-a$$ daughter we thought we'd be stuck with for-frikkin-ever."

How long was the snake? Not that size matters...right?
Actually...that's nothing new. A lot of women marry snakes.

...meanwhile on the outskirts of Bhubaneswar. A good bet this a preamble to a dog story of jaw dropping consequence at the minimum.

brass replica snake
Is that what they call it in India? Where's the battery compartment?

They better have conducted the whole ceremony in parseltongue, or it's not binding. On the snake.

Priests chanted mantras to seal the union, but the snake failed to come out of a nearby ant hill where it lives...
Typical guy, probably in there watching football or rugby or whatever snakes watch.

Yeah, a lot of women marry guys who lay around all day, and eat till their bellies protrude, while the woman is out supporting them and the little whelps slithering around on the floor.

Das, from a lower caste, converted to the animal-loving vegetarian...
WTFBBQ???

I blame the gays! First it's gay marriage. Then women marrying snakes and dogs. Then human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria ...
Posted by: Boo Augustus | September 12, 2007 at 10:56 AM
Big deal. So she knows he's a snake before she marries him.
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | September 12, 2007 at 11:00 AM
If the snake wouldn't show up for the wedding ceremony, I don't think there's much hope for the wedding night, IYCMD!
Posted by: Eleanor | September 12, 2007 at 11:00 AM
They'll probably have a fantassssstic life together. Actually the sssssss sound brought another word to mind, but that's kinda creepy.

And THIS is where grammaw has to call for computer tech assistance - well, it explains everything!

Will they travel on the honeymoon by plane?
(Dang-it, CJ, I said GBTW!....ok)
Posted by: CJrun | September 12, 2007 at 11:55 AM
CJ, only if she keeps her snake groom in a one-quart, clear plastic resealable bag.
Posted by: Siouxie | September 12, 2007 at 11:58 AM
So she married a lawyer... . Happens all the time.

who is this 'jon' and who invited him without telling him the rules? ;)
Posted by: Eleanor | September 12, 2007 at 02:10 PM
The snake doesn't require a dowry. I'll bet that makes it a bit more agreeable for the parents.

Opposites really do attract...
I have a new student at the gym who is an attorney with the D.A.'s office.
His wife is a professor of Ethics!
Maybe he was just a case study that got out of hand?
