That site tells such a beautiful story. I love the way everyone just pitched in to help: being sworn in so they could officiate, acting as witnesses, calling for pizza. It restores my faith in people.
( here's the pic (http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/object.cgi?object=/chronicle/pictures/2004/02/15/ba_samesex7lm.jpg&paper=chronicle&file=MNGMN51F8Q1.DTL&directory=/c/a/2004/02/15&type=news) )
where he is looking happy as a clam. Not a politician's smile, but one of happiness at other people's happiness. Nice story about how he decided Bush had to be kneed in the groin.
(LJ wouldn't show me anything after 9 Feb for a while, so please excuse the late feedback?)
This is a great story. Thanks for sharing. As half a het couple who counts several gay/lesbian couples in her circle and who is sitting in Massachusetts typing, I am hoping we'll be seeing a similar outpouring of love and courage and open-heartedness here soon.

I'm hoping to see similar pictures from Massachusetts soon too.
