What's with the Ynet story about a woman marrying a dolphin?

I have been seeing blog posts about this since Thursday. Isn't it a joke? Update: I got curious as to whether there were any other stories about it with different details. It turns out the AP had a story that included the following:

On Wednesday, she made it official, sort of. While she acknowledged the "wedding" had no legal bearing she did say it reflected her deep feelings toward the bottlenosed, 35-year-old object of her affection.

"It's not a bad thing. It just something that we did because I love him, but not in the way that you love a man. It's just a pure love that I have for this animal," she said.

OK, it seems that the answer is that it really happened, but that it was one of those goofy symbolic and/or meaningless things that celebrities do sometimes. Ynet did not decide to become the Onion although they did play up the jokey aspects of the story. (Hat tip: ParshaBlog)
