Let Quantum Physics Officiate Your Wedding

"Conceptual artist Jonathon Keats has come up with the ultimate in a nondenominational wedding ceremony: quantum entanglement. From the article: 'Keats has designed an entangling apparatus, which, when situated in a sunny window and exposed to the full spectrum of solar radiation, divides pairs of entangled photons and translates them to the bodies of a nearby couple.' As unusual as it seems, the ceremony is serious business to Keats, who says, 'The quantum marriage will literally be broken up by skepticism about it.'"

I wonder if I can get this to do my wedding... Hmmm...

i'm sensing a smacked head in this vicinity in 3.....2.....

Who is going to smack my head? I reckon Pam will love the idea, she wont understand it (and to some extent neither do I) but it gets rid of that pesky problem we are faced with...

[rustypup]

i have my doubts as to the efficacy of the device... since when does a "conceptual artist" get to wave quantum physics around in the name of publicity and not get called a faecal excreta artist....

[KatrynKat]

and what pesky problem would that be.....

and this is on behalf of Pam....

[Anakha56]

KK The pesky problem is finding someone to officiate our wedding. Both of us are not religious so to have a religious session is something we dont want. This could work perfectly...

/I see you can post outside the chill section...

[rustypup]

i always understood that barmen could officiate?

or was that chocolate vodka ?

<confused> - kidnap a ship's captain and withhold rum privileges until he capitulates...

[KatrynKat]

i don't know if they can still do it but my dad as a magistrate could wed people in the past....
as i say.... don't know if they can do it now a days.....

do NOT drink chocolate vodka on an empty stomach..... it burns a hole in you.....
and makes for interesting walks at the bottom of the garden.....

/ and i can post outside the chill section..... just never know what to say in the tech threads so don't post there.....

I will just laugh. Because you can be both married and single at the same time and when asked you will then say you are married which will stop you from being in the single position.

My head hurts

[KatrynKat]

your head hurts from thinking about marriage.... or is it from something else?

[KillerByte]

my wallet hurts thinking about marriage.

[KatrynKat]

when's the big day....

my wallet hurts thinking about marriage.

It isn't too late to pull out of it.
Consider paying someone to leap up during the wedding ceremony and object to the union.

Think of cheaper options:
Invite a small, select group of people to a backyard wedding, followed by a braai, tea and biscuits or snacks and cocktails.
Dress can be informal. Why waste money on something you may never wear again if you can get away
with jeans and a t-shirt.

Collect donations for your wedding at the entrance and let it pay for itself.

Insist on taking a laptop along on your honeymoon, which will comprise a weekend of paintball with the PCF crew
