23/6 Gay Wedding Ceremony-o-Tron

Not the hot kind.

As of 5 p.m. PST Monday it became legal for California county clerks to issue marriage licenses to same sex couples. Lesbian octogenarians Del Martin, and Phyllis Lyon were the first and only couple to be wed in San Francisco that day, in a small ceremony attended by family, friends, and thousands of homophobic protesters outside wishing a hellfire-filled death to the elderly couple.
