George Takai and his longtime partner and business manager have announced that they will soon be married. Congrats George!
Nitpick: “Takei.”
Bah. Stupid vowel.
He should have posted an audio clip so we could have heard it in his own incredibly distinctive voice.

Think Shatner’s going to be invited to the wedding?
The engagement ring was made from a dilithium crystal, no doubt.
I’m sure he’ll help with the travel arrangements.
Well, I’m stunned.
To boldly go where two men have almost never gone before.
“Oh, my.”
Seriously, they’ve been partners for, what, twenty years? Good for him.
sniff
All those years of Sulu slash-fic and now it’s coming true!
I feel so out of it these days. Did this actually happen?
Demora must be so confused.
From the Howard Stern Show website, Monday 5/19:
Wish 'em luck.
Some gay couples have experienced the phenomenon that a lot of straight cohabiting couples have experienced for years, that being that they’ll live together 10 or 20 years or even longer and get along fine, then they’ll make it legal, and then a year later they’re split up. Some gay couples (I don’t have stats, but it does happen) who’ve been together forever have similarly split up soon after having it legalized and officialized.
But none of them played Sulu, so here’s hoping his goes fine. (He was probably just waiting until his character was dead on HEROES anyway so that he wouldn’t have to share those paychecks if they divorced.)
So? Shouldn’t gay couples have the right to fuck up their marriages or do we need to protect society from gays doing the same thing straights do everyday?
Cool. But it says “possibly short lived.”
That usually means, “definitely short lived.”
It’s good at least until November, when there might be a constitutional amendment against gay marriage on the ballot, which might or might not pass. Otherwise, the Supreme Court of California has spoken, no one in the state can gainsay them, and the SCOTUS has no grounds to get involved.
Anyone know if the proposed amendment to the California constitution would retroactively void existing same-sex marriages?
You mean Walter Koenig? Cool!
