Same-sex couple marries in Texas under one-time order

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Defying Texas' longstanding ban on gay marriage, a lesbian couple wed in Austin after being granted a marriage license on Thursday under a special court order because one of the women has cancer.

Texas' attorney general immediately appealed to the state Supreme Court, which later agreed to block other gay couples from obtaining marriage licenses but didn't address the Austin marriage of Suzanne Bryant and Sarah Goodfriend.

Hello,

Found this on the web

Glad to see that some Judge in Texas gets it, but I hope it is not just for illness like in this case.  Love to see more of this soon!!! Also marriages on love too!!! :D

The Rose that Grew from Concrete
Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams,
it learned to breathe fresh air.
