We're Still Here

In case you wondered, Massachusetts hasn't been struck by violent earthquakes, or thunderstorms, or plagues of frogs today. I guess that means God's pretty cool with gay marriage. Good for Him.

Hilary and Cathy got their license today and are hitchin' up on Monday. I wish I could go, but they're keeping everything low-key. But congratulations from the whole BunkoSquad family to two awesome people.

Meanwhile, I just saw on Fox25 that Governor Mitt spent the day hiding from cameras and reporters, for the first time ever. Maybe he was trying to keep the national Republican Party from throwing him overboard after allowing this to happen on his watch. Maybe he was unearthing a 1675 law that he thought might pertain to the situation. Wherever he was, we don't mind if he stays there a while.

Elsewhere, Mom reports that my sleepy little sub-suburban hometown, 40 miles west of Boston, gave out 12 marriage licenses today.

And finally, from the lunatic fringe, a man who owes his job to "activist judges" confirmed today that he's willing to screw around with the United States Constitution, just because it makes him sick to see these people so happy. Telling.

Your opening sentiment was echoed by my favorite Globe columnist, Mr. Brian McGrory, in his delightful column yesterday.

Thanks Michael. We did indeed get hitched. We went to city hall, they said some words over us, poof: we were married. Afterwards I had an urge to go up to people on the street and say, "Haha we're married now. Nothing you can do about it!"
