Instead, our families can dine out at a cool Sushi Bar. Cheers and good luck.

The odds are stacked in our favor. After all, this is the same court that voted for marriage in the first place, and arguing on our side will be the state attorney general, the governator, and a large consortium of other groups (one more reason why I love Apple). Of course, you already know all this, but a little positive reinforcement never hurts. :)El Geniohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02801064758712821345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33131983.post-12379307386736091372009-02-03T19:48:00.000-08:002009-02-03T19:48:00.000-08:00Wow, this is a bit surprising.
