Thanks, Andy, for posting the video of Beth Robinson's swearing in ceremony. I was fortunate to be in the audience for it, and it was a thrilling day for us in VT. Here's the person who was absolutely the leader of the marriage equality fight in VT (from the original Court case through the legislative victory over a decade later) being appointed by the governor to the state's highest court as the governor speaks about the importance of Beth's wife, her gay advocacy, and the struggle of LGBT people to gain equality. Beth also happens to be brilliant, and she'll do a great job.

So glad the "gay baby" short took a turn because I was close to being pissed off about the stereotyping - especially after just watching the David Testo video.

Loved the Gay Baby short! And it starred cutie pie Larry Sullivan (from "The Trip"). Larry's had a strong career as a character actor with a long list of credits to his name.
Larry has also been in a long-term relationship with actor David Monahan (another excellent character actor).
The David Testo interview was excellent. Kudos to David for coming out.

XTRA: In the tradition of Dalia Royce and Mary Cherry, I think we should all come together and start a charity drive that will help the unfortunate comb-less in Canada's journalism industry.

I was just shocked that he's a pitcher! Definitely took him for a catcher.
