Golden State of Bliss
The L.A. Times has an
interesting blog full of reported snippets from this week's
historic gay marrying in California, my favorite of which might be
this tale of the first gay couple to be married in the great
military town of San Diego:
[Bob] Lehman, a former Marine, and [Tom] Felkner were married by Lehman's brother, Jeff, a retired Marine.
"I'm a Marine. I like to do things first," said Bob Lehman.

Ah, yeah! Not a single "Real Jock" banner!
But, seriously,
, it's just not normal," said the protester, Dennis Agajanian, a member of Bikers for Christ.
A "Biker for Christ" commenting on societal norms?

I've always tought laws aimed at gays made and as much sense as laws aimed at people who engage in different sexual positions...Wait a minute, we had that too and conservatives went ape-shit when they were struck down!

I have long been out of the Air Force but I still keep my hair short. I like not having to do anything to my hair in the morning. Just dry it after a shower and I am done. I don't have to waist money on hair jells or anything like that.
Bob Lehman|6.19.08 @ 10:26AM|#
Dude, you're not a Marine anymore...you can change your
haircut...
Once a Marine, always a Marine, boy!
Although I wouldn't expect any of you lily-livered hetros to
understand that...
|6.19.08 @ 10:33AM|#
"I'm a Marine. I like to do things first," said Bob
Lehman.
Well, this at least explains why neither of them are wearing
white.

The Takei wedding had a disappointing lack of shirtless sword
fighting, though.
Of course, maybe that was saved for the honeymoon...

Yeah, saw his quote in Time. Hey, if you can't escape the

might as well give it a tight, warm hug.

I guess Takei was afraid Shatner would start chewing up scenery at his wedding.

Mr Man: I was just wondering whether it would be possible for me
to join... the women's army?
R.S.M.: The Women's Royal Army Corps, sir?
Mr Man: Yes. I was just thinking, you know, if it was possible for
me to have my choice ... I'd prefer to be in the Women's Royal Amy
Corps.
R.S.M.: Well, I'm afraid that the people that recruit here normally
go straight into the Scots Guards.
Mr Man: Which is all... men... I suppose?
R.S.M.: Yes it is.
Mr Man: Yes. Are there any regiments which are more effeminate than
others?
R.S.M.: Well, no sir. I mean, apart from the Marines, they're all
dead butch.

Start Trek was a path breaking show. It was very well written
(except for the last season) and technically sophisticated for the
time. I also like all of the spin offs except for Voyager. Also, I
don't think that Boston Legal would have William Shatner if it were
not for Star Trek.
Episiarch|6.19.08 @ 10:51AM|#

To Takei, about Jeffrey Ross: "Jeff is such a huge asshole you
won't have to spit on your dick first."
I couldn't find that quote anywhere, except...parentstv.org.
Now that's funny.

There is something horribly, horribly wrong about this.

I think this news cycle is going to get me over my squickiness
about seeing dudes kissing. It's weird that various gay parades and
so forth have gotten me completely inured to dudes in thongs and
all sorts of other stuff, but for whatever reason the kissing thing
still gets a reaction.
Except that scene between Captain Jack and Captain John. That was
just awesome.

With any famous enough program there is a danger of type-casting.
One way around it is to SELL your typecast as a plus and find a
niche archetype that you play well. I think that this is what got
Rob Morrow onto Numbers. On Numbers he plays a character who is
intelligent, somewhat arrogant and socially inept. On Northern
Exposure he plays a character who is intelligent, somewhat arrogant
and socially inept. As for Shatner, the character he plays on
Boston Legal is like the persona he invented for himself for when
he goes to Star Trek conventions.

A great question to ask people who say gay marriage somehow
destroys marriage is "If a gay couple near you got married would
you love your wife (or husband) any less?"
|6.19.08 @ 11:21AM|#
"If a gay couple near you got married would you love your wife (or husband) any less?"
I'm not married, but I could see how it would. "Keeping up with the Joneses" and all, my wife and I would have to get a gay marriage, too.

The argument about "destroying marriage" isn't that people
currently married will break up, but that, in the future, people
who would have gotten married will not.
I have no idea how making marriage more common, and reducing the
prominence of the cruising bachelor as a model for how to live your
life, is supposed to accomplish this, though.
I strongly suspect that the argument doesn't actually make any
sense.

Does anyone else remember the National Review article about the
danger of gay marriage and the need to maintain strong taboos
against homosexuality in general?
The author's thesis was - I swear to God I'm not making this up -
that sex with men is so much better than sex with women that OF
COURSE men would choose to be gay, unless there was some strong
countervailing force to dissuage them. So much so that it would put
our society in danger of not producing enough children to carry
on.

I strongly suspect that the argument doesn't actually make any sense.
One of the
blog entries from Matt's link:
"Let the people of Bakersfield see the disgusting results of them getting married. Men kissing men. Ewww,'' she said. "Then everyone will make up their minds on what they want to do about it.''
I think that sums up their arguments rather succinctly: "Ewww". On
the rare occasions I look at the wedding notices in our local
Sunday paper, I'm generally confronted with pictures of a bunch of
fat cows squeezed into bridal gowns. The thought of these heifers
having sex and ultimately reproducing is repulsive, but I'm not
about to oppose obese marriage on the basis that I find it
disgusting.
I especially like how the Bakersfield anti-gay marriage groups is
named "Bakersfield Citizens Opposed to Obscenity and Lewdness". Get
it? BCOOL.

Doesn't ARMY simply stand for "Ain't Ready for the Marines Yet"?
That's why Marines join the Army in droves after their initial enlistment or halfway through their careers. No, the Army is for people that care about technical training and people who are too retarded for the Air Force. The Marine Corps is for people who think they're John Wayne.

A question out of curiousity:
OK, hetero guys are turned off by male to male action, turned on by
female to female action.
Do women have the converse reaction?
Are hetero women turned on by male/male action?
How do they react to fem/fem action?
If not, why the diff?
|6.19.08 @ 11:49AM|#
Reinmoose,
I've read elsewhere that young people are having sex, too. Hasn't
anyone thought of telling these kids to abstain from sex until
they're married, fat and old?
|6.19.08 @ 11:50AM|#
Are hetero women turned on by male/male action?
One time I heard a woman make an offhand comment that hinted that she was, but at the same time I think this interest is fairly rare.

OH - along these same lines, there was a study a few years ago
that just blew my mind!

"They really don't seem to be enjoying that kiss."
Well, I've been to lots of straight weddings and the post-nup kiss
is often either perfunctory, or over-acted.
Really, the couple has just made a major life change, gone through
the stress of wedding planning, and are then expected to kiss
passionately and publicly.
The above applies to all couples, but this couple has the added
burden of not knowing whether their marriage will be valid after
November.

Most women that I know aren't too thrilled with swordfights (some

know several very straight women who swear they would go lesbo for
certain actresses.
It's what we men call win-win.

Simple answer: evolution. From the perspective of passing genes
onto the next generation, there is an advantage to a man having
intimate relations with more than one woman. More than one woman
can be pregnant by the same man at the same time. Not true for
women. A woman can only be pregnant once at a time. There is no
genetic advantage to a woman having intimate relations with more
than one man at the same time (though it happens).

To the person who said "barf, barf". Rarely have I seen someone
articulate their politics so articulately. In one word you

George Takei did not marry, he got his marriage license with the
marriage planned for the Fall.
As for Torchwood -- two seasons in the UK, two seasons in the US.
Loved the show so much that after watching the first part of season
one in the UK, I was in Berlin and arranged to watch it via my
computer using a friends cable television in the UK. Then watched
season two in the US and can't wait for season three. Captain Jack
and Captian John were rather intense but that was a love/hate
relationship. So where will things go with Ianto? Well, we know
where they went but where to from here?

Mr. DNA,
I see you're still running around the Net complaining and trying to
instigate a troll on In Cold Blog using other blogs and your "poor
me, I'm such a victim," stance. What exactly is your point of
posting that comment here? Do you always have a habit of posting
off topic remarks on people's blogs?
You were rude, just like now, and you were castigated accordingly.
In fact, if I remember right it was your continued BS that caused
me shut down the comments for the first time since I've been the
blog's administrator.
It's interesting that In Cold Blog has about 20 contributors, which
include guests, and many are well regarded and well known
personalities. You, being the consumate intellect that you clearly
are, feel that based on being spanked by the blog's administrator
(me) for your rude, condescending, argumentative, antagonistic and
deliberately nasty commentary that people who write there, such as
Erin Moriarty from CBS' 48-Hours, don't deserve respect? That the
entire blog is no longer worthy of any readers becasue YOU had your
feathers ruffled, and by a girl no less?
Not to mention slamming the entire National Lampoon entertainment
company because you don't like me, after all I spanked you. By the
way, genius, I didn't "used to be involved" with Lampoon, I still
am involved with Lampoon. http://tinyurl.com/6p2zru
Why don't you grow up and quit running around the Net acting like a
cry baby because someone calls you on your rude and childish
behavior. How about you stay away from the daytime SOAP operas and
act like a man. Not everyone will agree with you and when you're
rude some people will get in your face about it. The door on
freedom of speech swings both ways. You got hit in the butt with
it, now quit your whinning!

nothing in my comments, but instead attacked me for my "ridiculous
internet moniker". The editor of the blog used to be involved with
the National Lampoon website in some capacity, so not only did I
lose a lot of respect for In Cold Blog, it made me mourn the days
when National Lampoon used to be relevant."

I wonder why the Catholic church opposes same-sex marriage.

So where will things go with Ianto?
I suspect he'll remain Jack's fuck-buddy while exhibiting one or
two new personalities in addition to the several on display last
year - but if we're lucky the "wacky jokester" personality will not
make any further appearance.

It's interesting that In Cold Blog has about 20
contributors, which include guests, and many are well regarded and
well known personalities.
lady, there's nothing even remotely interesting about your
staffing.

Chris Potter,
However, from the California Department of Health Services,
Marriage licenses are valid for 90 days from the date of issuance. If you do not get married within 90 days, the license will no longer be valid. You must purchase a new license.--bold added
In short, Takei and Altman have a license, they are not married
yet. A marriage license is necessary, but not sufficient for a
couple to be married. A marriage must be solemnized by a person
meeting the necessary criteria.
