George Takei Takes Out Marriage License

WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — "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.

I love this guy . . . He got hilarious ever since he came out of the space closet. I wonder does his closet door whoosh??? Because I think that's even more gay than originally anticipated. I really hope they make fun of him on the next DFT News at Digitalfuntown.com . . . It's all in good fun.

Just kidding

assuming we can get obama elected in november, this will have been one heck of a good year for america!! there may be hope after all.

It is cool to see two men who have had a long term relationship go the distance
.Alot of straight couples might want to seek relationship counseling from those guys. I met Mr. Takei in 94 he was a class act then and he still is.
Best regards to the Groom and Groom

Separate the Church and State in this issue of marriage. Take all the marriages on the State's books and change them to Domestic Partnerships. Have the State for legal purposes, issue Domestic Partnership licenses to all who apply, heterosexual, homosexual, platonic, multiple partners, etc. Let the Churches marry people ca this is supposed to be covenant with God. No one is offended but it is time for this separation of Church and State to occur.
