Yes, I Was

Was I missing something about this? Yes, I was - it's a hoax:

The site's primary purpose is pretty obviously to pull some legs and yank some chains. And in fact, the site's creator, John Ordover (who has conducted a number of radio interviews in which he pretended to be the site's fictional publicity director, "Roger Mandervan"), has acknowledged that he did indeed set up MarryOurDaughter.com as a parody intended to draw attention to inconsistencies in state marriage laws.
Consider my leg pulled and my chain yanked. I'm off to the blackboard to write "I will be more skeptical" 100 times.
