Just when you thought you had heard every bizarre divorce story out there comes this one out of Vancouver. A Winnipeg man got permission from a judge to run a radio commercial in search of his wife, so he can divorce her.

Sounds ridiculous, but it's a last resort in a strange situation. The couple was married in December 1989 and separated in October 1990. And the guy hasn't seen his estranged wife since. He wants to remarry now, but he can't find his wife in order to get their divorce finalized.

Do you get the feeling that this story is headed toward an ugly ending? Would it surprise you if it came out that this guy has something to do with the fact that his ex is nowhere to be found? People don't just disappear into the ether for 17 years. It also makes you wonder about the whole idea of requiring a certain amount of time for a divorce to be finalized. If a couple agrees that the marriage is over, why drag it out any longer than it has to be? Of course, the flip side is, who lets their marriage hang in post-separation limbo for this long? After a couple years, don't you think you'd make sure the plug got pulled?
