Flowers From the Heartland Folks from all over the place are sending flowers to the people waiting in line to get married in San Francisco in a show of support. Supporters in the Bay area have been bringing tea, pizza and other snacks. Simply wonderfull. Via Boing Boing and Metafilter. More information about a collective flower effort can be found here. Previous (and amazing) discussion on the topic here.
  • This is just so beautiful. One of my best friends from college is going to make his third attempt to get married to his partner of 8 and a half years on Wednesday (they're going to get in line at 1 a.m. on Tuesday night). When they were there today, he said that the couple behind him in line got flowers from someone from his podunk small town in Virginia. He and his fiance were really touched.
