If the placement is off, then you should bring it up with the flag designer. Also, his web site shows the earlier versions of the flag - as more states 'add' marriage equality more stars will be added to the Flag of Marriage Equality.

M. Ezhoule]]> Sun, 05 Jul 2009 18:20:55 -0700 The Stranger I need some expert Gay Advice.

I was watching a 1/2 hour presentation on Michael Jackson last night, and I was thinking...this guy is a 1980s Liberace. I mean, it's so obviously gay, so over the top mincing with doilies gay, that it brilliantly hides the gayness.

Like they bring on "Michael Jackson's Girlfriend From the Thriller Video". Remember that girl? No...of course not. You're gay. But every straight dude in the world remembers that girl in the black dress that Michael Jackson was singing to because she had the hottest bod ever.

So then, they ask her -- did you have sex with Michael? And she makes this excuse about how Michael couldn't because Brook Shields, his "real life girlfriend" was around and how could he do that!!

Seriously, all that was missing from Neverland was a candelabra!

But don't take my word on it. I call upon the experts.

Michael Jackson:

1) Effeminate Loverboy

or

2) Wishes he had a white piano and boa to match

You tell me ?!?

And civil union.
And not to recognize either from other states.
And we have a stripe on the "gay marriage" flag.

Reason enough for me not to want any association with the Big Dipper.
