#1 "Ah, your teeth are coming in the wrong order? Let's see what the dental textbook says... Page 184... Hmmmmmmm. Marry patient to a dog.
"That will be $45, please. Do you need me to write out a prescription?"

#7 At least having the in-laws over for a visit won't be so bad.

#8 I consider drinking out of the toilet and peeing on the carpet to be bad.

#9 Ed-
Considering where this is, I doubt they have either a toilet or carpet;)

#10 After a bath, the children are taken to a place of worship in a procession accompanied by a band.

But is the new canine spouse is left tied up outside the mud hut, so it won't soil the dirt floor inside?

#11 Multiculturalphobes and caninephobes. That they are different don't mean they aren't as good or a moral. Don't be trapped by your capitalist/Judeo-Christian/afraid-of-thems-who-is-different mind set. There are probably lots of reasons why marrying dogs is good.

#12 There are probably lots of reasons why marrying dogs is good.

o No complaints about your sloppy eating habits.

o Leaving the toilet seat up makes it easier for your spouse to get a drink.

o You can refer to your wife as a bitch and be completely and utterly correct.

"Oh yeah, Raj? At least she's got a pedigree....unlike your brother Krishna's wife!"

#16 I suppose any discussion of "doggy-style" would be inappropriate.

#18 Lol, Sgt!

Phil - I don't get ya. Hmmm, I just know I'm going to regret being your straight-man, heh, but okay, I'm game:

What about dogs and chocolate?

;-)

#19 Sometimes, even the dog will object to the situation...

#20 It all sounds like lots of fun to me. A wedding, a band, children, puppies and tooth fairies. Children being forced to sleep with (gasp!) puppies.

Not exactly my idea of a nightmare...more like a pleasant dream sequence.
