Golly, isn't that just too sweet for words? And Rosie's family must be so pleased that Rosie is now an honest woman. There was a period during which they despaired that Rosie would never marry.

But if the fine print on the marriage license is read, she STILL isn't truthfully legally wed.

For some peole, mock weddings work. Still one of the more honest things she has done in her lifetime.

I passed by there a couple times around noon while it was going on (I work in downtown SF). Real sick media circus going on.

What I'm wondering is the following. City of SF changed the marriage license to not read "husband and wife", "man and woman", etc. So they are not legally binding documents that the State of California approved. (And SF is breaking the law by using bogus altered official documents.) But what about regular couples who are getting married at this time. Lets say Joe Blow and Ima Lover are a man and woman and want to get married at SF City Hall this week. Is the City of SF using the doctored document, or are they using the offical State document?

If they're using the doctored document for all weddings (probably), then the heterosexual couple may have problems down the road when they are deemed not legally wedded. I believe more lawsuits are forthcoming.
