George Takei of `Star Trek' gets marriage license
Jun 17 02:40 PM US/Eastern
By LAURA E. DAVIS
WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (AP) - "Star Trek" star George Takei is ready to "live long and prosper" with his partner of 21 years.
Takei will marry 54-year-old Brad Altman on September 14th in Los Angeles.
The 71-year-old actor, known for his role as Sulu on the "Star Trek" sci-fi TV series, was the first to pay $70 for a marriage license in West Hollywood early Tuesday. The marriage license is good for 90 days.
Takei was jubilant, saying "it's going to be the only day like this in our lives and it is the only day like this in the history of America."
He told reporters and a swelling crowd outside the West Hollywood city auditorium "may equality live long and prosper."
The California Supreme Court has legalized same-sex marriage.
Here's the announcment and a picture of the excited couple (courtesy of the AP):

I could give equally as much of a fuck as any other celebrity wedding.

Why do you hate going where no man has gone before?

Fuck a wedding. Fuck a "shower". Fuck my fucking friends double, triple and quadruple dipping on the fucking gift registries.
Fuck.

Damn...that sounds a little catty...(or at least like a nerve was struck?)

Neat, I wonder if they do the Vulcan to each other.

I thought that Takei was Shinto...not Jewish.

I wonder if Cap'n Kirk will serve as the "Bethsstest Man"... Or is "Maid of Honer" more appropriate in these things? :blink:

That's right. Everyone knows that funerals are the place to go to pick up women, Chas.

I'm really surprised at your unenthusiastic reaction about the progressive move by the State of California to allow gay marriage what with your very lively and spirited defense of it on another thread in the SGA not too long ago; I would've expected you to be squealing with glee.

I simply resent getting juiced for worthless household items by rich people.

Reread my comments. I would never squeal with glee if every state allows it or every state banned it. I simply could not give a fuck because it doesn't affect me and I'm not in the business of telling other people what they can and cannot do as long as no one is affected by it.

Again, my sarcastic jest was lost but I suppose that it is difficult to grasp in written form.

Sort of like smoking pot too... right? The affects aren't always evident or overwhelmingly obvious. While I can appreciate your concept of liberty, it's the downstream and longer term affects to our society that concern me. It's easy to claim that the actions of others don't immediately affect or impact you, but sometimes, you do have to look a bit beyond the immediate moment and apply logic and reason to the situation and longer term consequences and risks.
As a relatively recent example of this, there are a number of states that do not currently recognize same sex marriages trying to figure out a way to process same sex divorces. Sure, the original homosexual marriage may not have immediately affected others, but now, tax dollars and other resources are being diverted to deal with something that these states didn't even approve or recognize in the first place. Maybe, it's just me, but I'd rather my government work on more important issues.

They don't have to wear condoms to keep from having kids, so they have that going for them. Fuck the fucking rubber cartel.
