When people argue against animal rights with gems like, “What’s next, the right to vote? To drive?” I just have to roll my eyes and shake my head. And when people argue against same-sex marriages with “next humans will be marrying animals,” I just sigh. But then there’s this

Woman marries dolphin

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.
