Gay people in Alabama.

Then his boycott ended last week, but I'm sure Pat still isn't happy.

Your link's busted. But anyway, one lousy state don't count.

Just because they don't have any special position doesn't mean Pat et. al. aren't coming, I'm sure between Beef's neuroses and Ray's party-hosting instincts they wouldn't leave anyone off the invite list.

Also: Worst Man. So perfect.

Wouldn't Massachusetts count as another lousy state?

I thought they took it back in Massachusetts or something. After some half-awake Googling I think what I was remembering is that it doesn't do you any good unless you live in Massachusetts, more or less:

Massachusetts does not have a residency requirement for marriage, but an old law from 1913 was revived to deny marriage licenses to same-sex couples from other states unless they intend to reside in Massachusetts. GLAD filed a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of this law and the final decision by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court was that same-sex couples from other states could marry in Massachusetts provided there was no statute, constitutional provision or controlling appellate decision in their state that prohibited same-sex couples from marrying. Since most states have one of these prohibitions, at this time the only same-sex couples who can marry in Massachusetts are residents of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Mexico, or residents of any state who intend to reside in Massachusetts.
