What about marrying inanimate objects? This new pen I received...
is so great, I'd like to marry it. Do you think there would be a uproar against man/inanimate object marriage?

This IS a great pen. Really sleek looking. :-)

1. I once made a beef stew and the recipe said to let it sit in the
refrigerator overnight so the flavors could marry. :-)

2. Now that you mention it. . .
My computer REALLY kicks ass. I might want to marry it. Then again, once it gets old and slow, I'll want to dump it for a younger model. A "trophy computer" so to speak. Perhaps I should get a pre-nup! It could end up with half my games.

4. That brings up other questions. When the ink runs out, would you be
eligible for survivor benefits? Could you simply replace the cartridge? What if the rollerball got clogged, could you buy another cheaper pen with similar DNA and sacrifice the "donor" pen to save your betrothed?

Or maybe it's all just nobody's business but your own! Congratulations! Remember, the First anniversary is Paper, you're gonna have a grand time then!!

5. I think the total would be $254 from SS, wouldn't it?
I'm not sure. He may be pen-alized for not marrying one of those newer, longer lasting models...pre-existing conditions and all...;)

7. Whew, I'd better get some legal help, and pronto!
I hadn't thought of those thorny questions you brought up.

8. I'm sure Bob Dole will be pedaling a "refill" for the dry pen
it's never too late.

6. You would not accept my box turtle love
therefore I will fight to the end to ban relationships between humans and inanimate objects. It's a sin and you are corrupted the eggs of my ovaries that could be future children of this world

13. reminds me of something
I was out with a bunch of folks having drinks after work. By 8:00 there was only me, another guy and a woman attorney I'd known for a while, and we had a great case of alcohol-fueled hunger. We went to a place that had great steaks. After consuming most of a bottle of caberet, the steaks finally came to the table, sizzling and smelling wonderful. She leaned back in her chair, stared at the steak, and said in a very deliberate voice, "I want to fuck this steak." It was several minutes before any of us could stop laughing enough to actually take a bite.
