#1 But when the father saw the woman he decided to marry her himself and told Maher he opposed the match.

Following in the footsteps of the Prophet (may bees pee upon him).

You see, ol' Mo' went to see his son and new daughter-in-law, and shortly after meeting her, he declared that Allah told him the two must not be married, that their marriage had never even occurred. Once everyone got over their confusion (and, likely, a few rather confused people had been stoned and/or murdered), ol' Mo' said Allah commanded HIM to marry this poor, benighted woman who had not, in fact, been married to Mo's son (previous marriage ceremony not applying).

I remember this story because of the comment of one of ol' Mo's other wives: "Convenient god you have, this Allah."

#2 He must have met her at a famous Saudi Strip club- "Jahada- Bing", where for a $10 cover charge, the showgirls flip up their face veils for a peek at the whisker on their chin.
...but unfortuantely, there is no champaign in the Champaign Room

#4 So if dad marries her, does that mean it's okay for the son to kill her? You know, the "honor" thing?

#5 For some reason, that Ray Stevens song "I am my Own Grandpa" popped into my head while reading this . . .

#6 If I was writing this, Dad would have a "heart attack" on his wedding night, Junior would inherit daddy's money and comfort his griving bride.

#7 I'm thinking more like Tom Lehrer's "Oedipus Rex."

#9 Ed, we're talking Saudis here . . . no such honorable tradition for real men among them. Swords directed at one small target in particular might work, though . . .

#10 âSurprisingly, she chose to marry the father,â the paper said.

More like the head of both households agreed that the father would marry her or die.
