Rowrow is correct, you can only marry if you're alive.

Two brothers were talking. One said, "I am fed up with living in Birmingham because I have to drive all the time. Why don't we move to London?" His brother replied, "But that would mean that I would have to drive all the time." What is going on?

One brother works in London and the other one works in Birmingham, and both are currently living in Birmingham?

If not, do the two brothers live in the same town?

I believe that the brothers were Siamese twins... must be joint together on their side. Birmingham must be in the U.S. When they drove on the right-hand side of the road the steering wheel was on the left-had side... the brother that is joined on the left always has to drive. In London, they drive on the other side of the road, so the other brother said that he would always have to drive (the steering wheel being on the right-hand side).

Is that right?

That's right.
For those that don't understand it:

Starting with the second line, every line describes the line before it. In writing, it is:
One One
Two Ones
One Two One One
and so on...

EDIT:
It is really quite easy after you understand what it is doing:
1
11
21
1211
111221
312211
13112221
1113213211
31131211131221
13211311123113112211
11131221133112132113212221
3113112221232112111312211312113211

Ok, I just found a really cool riddle. Try this one:

There is a common English word that is nine letters long. Each time you remove a letter from it, it still remains an English word - from nine letters right down to a single letter. What is the original word, and what are the words that it becomes after removing one letter at a time?

I will be going out of town soon and will not be able to check the site for a while. I am going to help this along by giving the base word:
Startling

Removing one letter will make it a new word... then another letter removed still makes another word... all the way down to one letter.
Put all of the words from the 9 letters, down to the last.

Well, that makes it really easy:

Startling
Starting
Staring
String
Sting
Sing
Sin
In
I

I'll think of a riddle later on.
