CA Supreme Court to rule on Gay Marriage today (5/15) at 10:00am

[innerSpaceman]

Only a few places are staying open past 5:01 pm to perform marriages tomorrow evening. Most places will start with business as usual on Tuesday morning ... and I hope there's enough time before November to demonstrate to the good people of California that it will be business as usual for all of our lives even after a flood of homosexuals marry the ones they love.


I find it fitting to be attending the LHC meeting Tuesday night. I hope they are on to something, because I want to get involved.

There is at least one exception:

Phyllis and Del
For decades, Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon were little-known outside America’s lesbian movement, which they helped launch in San Francisco in 1955.

That was until 2004, when a moving photo of their post-wedding embrace shot the couple to fame overnight. Longtime gay-marriage supporters and a then-brand-new mayor of San Francisco hatched a plan to make “Phyllis and Del” the face of same-sex marriage, as the first of more than 4,000 gay couples were issued marriage licenses in the city.

They correctly figured the couple, now in their 80s, would begin to bust stereotypes and bring new converts to the cause.

Now, virtually everyone in the gay community, and many outside it, refer to them simply as “Phyllis and Del.”

As they were during San Francisco’s 2004 experiment with same-sex marriages, the couple will be the first ones married in the city. At 5:01 p.m. today, surrounded by a group of 75 friends, family members, supporters and politicians, they will be wed at City Hall in the winter of their lives.

But that is a very worthy exception. From here.
