You may call me Reverend Omunene

It's official! After years of grueling studies, months of humiliating maintenance of custody of my eyes and days of antagonistic oral exams in front of a hostile synod, I am a Minister of the Faith, affiliated with the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. A Pastafarian.

 

Those of you familiar with the "VOWS" section of the Sunday NYT will be aware that with every passing month, more and more of the haut monde are being married by ministers specifically ordained just to marry one specific couple.

 

Just this past Sunday was an announcment of the wedding of Morgan Cummings and O'Neal Gray. Here are the first two sentences of the announcement IN THE EFFING NEW YORK TIMES:

 

"Morgan Janet Dixon Cummings and Robert O'Neal Gray Jr. were married May 12 at Texas Discovery Gardens, a botanical garden and butterfly habitat in Dallas. Edward Kuyper, the bride's brother-in-law, who became ordained by the Church of the Latter-Day Dude, officiated."

 

Like the Dude, I can now marry, divorce, or baptize you and/or lead you on your spiritual journey -- and I will be happy to do so, on your request, absolutely free of charge.
