The BobboSphere: Don't believe everything you think.

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung...
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.

Update: I received some sad news this evening of August 27. Del Martin died today. She was a fighter and a great lady. My sincere condolences to Phyllis Lyon and to everyone who was touched by Del Martin's wonderful life. .

Shortly after 5 PM on June 16, 2008, longtime lesbian activists Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin were wedded by San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsome. Both women were well up into their eighties and had been together for 55 years. They were founding members of the Daughters of Bilitis which began way back in 1955 and became the nation's first lesbian advocacy group.

Given their history, it was fitting that they were the first gay Californians to get legally hitched. They were followed by hundreds more, joining the many gays who had already married in Massachusetts where it has been legal since 2004.

Amazing rebel music from Matthew Grimm and the Red Smear. Best damned thing out of Iowa since sweet corn. ­
