I now pronounce you. . .
The Beeb reports:A Sudanese man has been forced to take a goat as his "wife", after he was caught having sex with the animal.H/T - a man known only as "Chesty."
The goat's owner, Mr Alifi, said he surprised the man with his goat and took him to a council of elders.
They ordered the man, Mr Tombe, to pay a dowry of 15,000 Sudanese dinars ($50) to Mr Alifi.
"We have given him the goat, and as far as we know they are still together," Mr Alifi said.
Mr Alifi, Hai Malakal in Upper Nile State, told the Juba Post newspaper that he heard a loud noise around midnight on 13 February and immediately rushed outside to find Mr Tombe with his goat.
"When I asked him: 'What are you doing there?', he fell off the back of the goat, so I captured and tied him up".
Mr Alifi then called elders to decide how to deal with the case.
"They said I should not take him to the police, but rather let him pay a dowry for my goat because he used it as his wife," Mr Alifi told the newspaper.

post a commentWell, it's better than doing that out of wedlock.
Wow. And we're worrying about same sex marriage. These Sudanese fellas have advanced so far as to have inter-species marriage. They are obviously far ahead of us socially and culturally.
But do they permit, for example, a man to marry both a goat and one or two women? Or do they balk at such disgusting behavior?
Lord. Can we PLEASE have a post on Glib and Superficial that DOESN'T include even a passing smirk-ridden reference to:
(a) "moonbat liberals";
(b) how gays are ruining our country;
(c) why the Times building should be burned to the ground;
(d) how Jimmy Carter's 4 years (FOUR, PEOPLE) in office somehow irreparably screwed up our country;
(e) the idea that Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid somehow speak for every person with left-of-center beliefs, everywhere.
Thank you.
Rant over.
"Moonbat Liberals" appears with great infrequency (go ahead - search). "Gays" aren't ruining anything (that I know of). Neither are people who are left-handed. The Times building should not be burned to the ground. It's quite a nice building. Given it's history and tradition, however, it might make sense to turn it over to some journalists. Since Liberal Democrats have elected Reid and Pelosi as their political leaders, it's hard to ignore them. If you don't want to be stuck with those folks speaking for you, then announce that you're not a liberal or a Democrat.
And it's Jimmy who's singin' in the rain with the murderous anti-Semites. If you lay down with dogs, you're like to get up with fleas.
BWJOFM -- YOU post about bestiality (albiet sanctified by solemn marriage vows), and then YOU complain about moonbat references? When I have to live in the middle of the world's largest protected moonbat sanctuary? Sheesh.
Smirk, smirk, smirk.
BWJOFM?
Two comments. First, this whole story sounds like a hoax. I mean, given what I know of the "culture" of the Sudan and environs, if such an atrocity had happened, then undoubtedly the goat's family would have murdered her in an "honor killing". Second, how do you know that "Chesty" is a man? Granted, "Chesty" was the nickname of perhaps the manliest man of the 20th century -- Chesty Puller -- but it was also the name of "Chesty Morgan", who most definitely does not appear to be a man.
I can assure you that the 'Chesty' in question here is undoubtedly a man - nay, a man's man.
Yeah, definitely a man. He can pull trucks with his teeth and stuff. It's great.
