It's quite topical...like a rash

I noticed that many people on Facebook made it a point to change their "STATUS UPDATE" commenting on today's auspicious supreme court ruling. I've captured as many as I could find to commemorate what a historic day this is - for gay people and for equal rights. Enjoy!

Great entry! Happy day indeed!

I think Andrew and I are going to get married in August, as close to our anniversary as possible.
