THANK YOU, Larry Borgia - I hadn’t seen that before. The original letter was priceless, right up there with the Smithsonian Barbie letter.

Wait a minute. He wants to marry a product of the thing he previously tried to sue? That wouldn’t end well; there would be in-law issues for sure. nah how can he be so sure the computer would accept him?

Gay marriage isn’t even legal in Florida, anyway. So basically his argument is:  
“I want to do something that is not legal. For justification, may I present this other similar thing which is… also not legal.”

Hell, I support his lawsuit. If he wins, then homosexuals in the state can use it as precedence to win their rights as well.

I for one will bless this marriage if he can get a [USB 3.0 Micro B Male Solder Connector](http://www.showmecables.com/product/usb-30-micro-b-male-solder-connector.aspx) affixed to his penis. As the ad sez, “the USB solder connectors will provide dependable data transmission for years to come.”

Getting back to Sevier’s lawsuit. I can’t help but notice his comment about how gay couples “have the right to marry their object of sexual desire, even if they lack corresponding sexual parts”. If Chris isn’t aware that gay sex involves corresponding sexual parts, I think somebody needs to sit him down and explain the concept to him.

Seriously, you’d think a guy with all that porn would know this.

The report on Sevier’s last battle with computers and sex: [Lawyer Blames Apple for His Porn Addiction](http://www.thefix.com/content/lawyer-blames-apple-his-porn-addiction91913). And his previous [stalking](http://blogs.tennessean.com/tunein/2013/06/25/nashville-lawyer-accused-of-stalking-john-rich/) of country music singer John Rich.

And he had already been declared mentally ill before any of this. The crazy runs deep in this one.

One of my favorite early Woody Allen roles was when he portrayed “data” waiting for transmission. 😃

Exactly. All these attempts to compare same sex marriage to marrying objects, children and animals are fundamentally flawed in that one of the “partners” isn’t a consenting adult.

She’s probably just a size queen.

In this particular case, it should be called Eunuchs. That’ll teach him to fool around with naïve young processors.
