Woodstock. The moon landing. The most sexually suggestive year on the 20th century's calendar.

Add this Pine Tree State gay couple as another thing that's celebrating its 40th anniversary this year:

Maine Couple Celebrates 40th Anniversary [PHB]

Ugh. How inhumanely condescending of Stand For Marriage Maine's Marc Mutty! He's talking about these two men's four decade union as if it's a soufflé that can never rise because someone forgot the eggs. In terms of marital arrogance, it ranks somewhere in between a bride who sends her invited guests her checking account routing number so that friends and family can directly deposit her wedding gift, and a drunken uncle who rises during a ceremony's "speak now or forever hold your peace" and cites his magic 8 ball as reason why the betrothed couple should walk away pre-"I do." Except, of course, Mr. Mutty's brazen action has the extra element of destroying constitutional guarantees in the name of supposedly state-separated religion, which kinda puts him in a special category to which no Bridezilla or inappropriate relative could never hope to aspire!
