how to keep your love alive

...Zimbabwe-style. Musician Dino Mudondo's been spilling the beans on his 'spiritual wedding' with local woman Cecilia Dapeta earlier this year. The pair went to a n'anga or prophet in Marirangwe. He got them to hold live pigeons ("just like the pigeons that never leave each other, we would never leave each other's side") and to catch and swallow -- while still alive, of course -- a fish apiece. The n'anga told the pair that swallowing the fish would ensure that their riches would multiply ("just like the countless eggs that fish lay").

After countless fights, Mudondo's just been slapped with a 14-month jail sentence for the physical abuse of Dapeta. She too got a suspended jail sentence.
