i'll try to send some art back as well. it's not going to come as easily for me as it does for you though

^YAY jen

ok. so i lied. all the art pieces are coloured. i felt bad for the black and white ones, so i spent more time on them. i plan to steal all my mom's stamps beacuse im broke and dont feel like spending 6-7 bucks. haha. and... yah thats it. i plan to seal them and put them in the post box on thursday or friday. sonya will probably get hers first because she lives closest to me and then all you canadians will get yours.. i dunno.. a few days, i think.

that reminds me... when Sooz sent her postcard, way back when, it said something about me marrying her(so she could get into canada), it was an inside joke. But then my mum read the postcard first.
And freaked out.
It was sooooo funny.
Well, for me.

excellent

A marriage isn't legal in Canada unless it's consumated. I learned that in class, just thought I'd share. *leaves*

con·sum·mate (kŏn'sə-māt')
tr.v., -mat·ed, -mat·ing, -mates.

To bring to completion or fruition; conclude: consummate a business transaction.

To complete (a marriage) with the first act of sexual intercourse after the ceremony.

The second one?

Yes. You must have sex with the person you just married in order for it to be legal.

Can you cite that? Because that doesn't sound right. I mean, there's no way of proving that you have or have not had sex...

I could cite my note or my textbook, or i could find a link somewhere I'm sure. I believe they just take you on the honour system saying that you did have sex.

lol, wouldn't that be utterly pointless then?

It would be. But it's in place for some reason. Like you can't marry a millionaire, then an hour later be like "I want a divorce and half this bastards money." The courts would declare it to not be a legal marriage because it hadn't been consummated. I dunno I'll check my notes on monday, I'm too lazy to google it.

hehe. I can see the reasoning behind it. Like being unable to marry an illegal alien just to get them citizenship.

But again, there's no way of checking on consumation specifically. The government does (if shows like Drew Carey have served me correctly) check on newly married aliens to ensure that it is a valid marriage and not just a scam. But I imagine the law wouldn't speak of consumation specifically, since it's entirely possible for a married couple to not have sex.

What about a couple in which one partner is handicapped? Or some guy who got his junk blown off (and not in the good way) while in the army?

I'm not entirley sure. It just says that the marriage must be consummated in order to be legal. I guess if the guy was handicapped or had his equipment blown off, it would have to be consummated the same way that a lesbian marriage is consummated. Remeber it only needs to be done once to be legal.

LOL

Well what if both people getting married are completely devoid of sexual organs? Like... they got into a car accident, and lost everything below their torso. Everything. They're hooked up to machines for bowl evacuation and all that. Are they not legally married?
