A British woman says she has finally found the true meaning of marriage now that she has divorced her husband and married her dog.
Amanda Rodgers and her dog/wife Sheba appeared on British television's ITV's "This Morning" Tuesday to discuss why she decided to wed her pet in a ceremony attended by 200 people in Croatia last week, reports the Mirror.
"She was two weeks old and she was new to the world but I fell in love with her," Rodgers, 47, told the show's hosts. "I knew that we were meant to be."

I am not married to my Maltese, but I am her b!tch.
The editor had to suffer through the story, now it’s our turn.
Yeah, those too. They need to lower/eliminate the age of consent and age to marry laws as well. After all, pedophiles are just like you and me, except they never forget to slow down in school zones! </Richter scale sarcasm>
Spot on!
Lesbian bestiality pedophilia.
If she had just waited until the dog was dead she could have become the new liberal saint.
It is the natural extension of gay "marriage", closely followed by polygamy and marrying of various items in the Sears catalog.
Can you marry a plant? I want to marry an orange tree... /s
I meant to say “our building employs”(verb) not employees(noun).
It was very cute, happened in 2010. Her name was Cecilia. His name was Uwe something. He wore a top hat. One account said that she wore a wedding gown, but I don’t think he subject her to that. She did have a lovely veil. The veterinarian told him that she didnt have long to live, so it was kind of like Zorba the Greek, except he truly loved her. It is not legal for them to have a real officiant in Germany so an actress performed the ceremony. The groom claimed that they were already sleeping together in the literal sense.
I admit Ive considered marrying my Malcolm, but he’s a self-centered bum.
Now, see what you've done, I've gotta go and watch the whole DVD again, right now!
I regret nothing.
(That song is from their second album, btw - post-movie.)
Do you know about those that think Kirk and Spock were gay (for each other)? This fat chick created an entire series of you tube videos with her “evidence”.
Those people are sick, no gay character? No problem! They’ll invent their own!
To shut up the rabid gay rights crowd, they were finally going to make a reference to a useless throwaway character being "gay" in 1996's Star Trek: First Contact (Fieldmarshaldj hates that movie), where the glorified extra Lt. Hawk, who was temporarily serving as helmsman after Data got kidnapped, would have mentioned he had a boyfriend, prior to the scene where Hawk was attacked by the Borg and Borgified, forcing Picard to kill him. The "boyfriend" reference never made it to the filming stage because they were short on time (Picard's romantic relationship with Alfie Woodward got cut too), which caused the lefties to cry some more.
They comfort themselves by pretending that the old "Sulu" and new "Spock" must be gay since the actors that play them are, and ignore the fact that both characters are clearly shown to only woo women romantically. (oddly enough, Sulu continually woos Uhura in the old show, while Spock hooks up with her in the new movies)
Forgot to ping you on #53
Yup a slippery slope indeed, 12 replies to a British Soldier killed in Afganistan and how many replies from you lot about some facile rubbish reported in an American rag? Yup your seriously on a slippery slope, can you not see your own arrogance and stupidity? Is this what you’ve become? Facile and shallow. Maybe it’s just freerepublic. I don’t believe it is but perhaps I’m wrong. It makes me sad to see some of these uninformed and foolishish comments.
The problem I had with “First Contact” was the historical revisionism that has become a hallmark of AbramsTrek (although “ST:Enterprise” was chronically guilty of it as well). I was infuriated that they completely destroyed Zefram Cochrane, turning him from a NASA-esque scientist into a giant hippie lush (nevermind changing his location from Alpha Centauri to a post-apocalyptic hippie commune scene in the Montana sticks, although the “Alpha Centauri” is a debatable point never entirely clarified).
In reality, the invention of the warp drive would be the product of the scientific community (as reflected by Glenn Corbett’s portrayal, a highly intelligent scientist/astronaut) at a state of the art facility. No way would a one-man operation at a decrepit underground missile silo “invent” and be able to launch such a ship (what about the hazards posed to all the people living nearby ?).
When you write science fiction, there has to be an element of believability to it, and there wasn’t one iota of it when it came to that abomination of a story. It was shamefully embarrassing.
That’s a valid point, I probably have been shocked by the portrayal of Cochrane as an obnoxious drunk more if I had seen the episode “Metamorphsis” prior to viewing First Contact. The classic OS episode was a handful of ones I hadn’t seen in 1996, so I just had the 1996 version of the character to go by, and it worked within the context of the story they were trying to tell.
Obviously there’s no way to reconcile Glenn Corbert’s Zefram Cochrane as being the same person as James Cromwell’s Zeframe Cochrane. They look nothing alike, and have completely different backgrounds, personalities, and even ages. (Cochrane was in his early 30s when he invented warp drive in TOS, whereas he’s in his mid 50s when he invents warp drive in First Contact). I saw Metamorphsis about a year later, and was floored when I realized how different the TOS version was.
Although the 2009 movie has its share of “WTF” moments (like Starfleet already having a drink named after Cardassians in the Pike era!), I didn’t think there was anywhere near the level of character revisionism that First Contact did (even characters that were way off like Chekov still maintained some major traits from their original version). But then Into Darkness came out, and I consider what they did to “Khan” to be an evil worse revisionism than Zeframe Cochrane. It also makes NO sense from a sci-fi standpoint, because whether the timeline was altered or not, Khan was cyrogentically frozen in the 20th century and would have been exactly the same when they unfroze him as he was in Space Seed.
Yeah the poor bastard who you knew would die as soon as Picard said his name. LOL. The gays would probably be pissed off because he died.
I read also that they were gonna make a character on "Enterprise" gay (Malcolm Reed) but didn't.
Picard's romantic relationship with Alfie Woodward got cut too
Good, the sappy heartache of having to leave her behind in the past would have sucked. And frankly he needs a better looking woman than that like the chick "Q" stole from him "Vash".
I like "First Contact", certainly more than "Generations" and "Nemesis". I have not seen "Insurrection" recently if ever, the plot sounds like I'd be rooting against the Enterprise crew.
Maybe Cochrane was an astronaut working at NASA before WW3 or whatever and then continued the work latter, and moved to Alpha Centauri after he invented warp drive, clearly the colony couldn't have existed till it was invented. That doesn't explain why he was too old, he was supposed to be born in the 2030s according to the Internet meaning he should have been in his 30's during the movie, Cromwell was 50 something and looked older than that. And of course much taller than the actor who played the fountain of youthized Cochrane on TOS. The only BS explanation is that he was prematurely aged (and also got taller) because some kind of radiation poisoning, that would explain his drinking problem.
They also changed Chekov's age in the new movies, he should been 13 not 17 in the first one.
About Kahn's racial makeover (which I heard was done for BS PC reasons), the only thing that would make sense, perfect sense at that, would be that he was given plastic surgery to change his appearance so no one would recognize him (failing to do so would be like not recognizing Hitler). Of course Spock (who I thought was an expert in Earth history) didn't know who the hell he was and had to ask Old Spock.
I enjoyed watching the new movies but the plots of both of them were pure ass.
Alfre Woodard was wasted in “First Contact.” If you’re going to have some (interracial) romance, make sure they have at least the most remote level of chemistry. She had neither with Stewart or Cromwell. She’s a competent actress, just a bad role.
Malcolm Reed did seem borderline poofterish, but that’s an affliction of many British actors.
The Khan recast was viscerally offensive beyond all comprehension. Benedict Cucumberpatch was about as menacing and charismatic as a lost cousin of “The Waltons.” In fact, there was very little in “Into Dorkness” that wasn’t viscerally offensive beyond all comprehension.
I love my dog too. I’m also not letting it near a certain part of the anatomy.
