Essay 1731


A Presidents’ Day MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• A gay couple were married in New Jersey (pictured above), becoming the first people to take advantage of the state’s new same-sex equal-rights law. “It’s a tremendous step forward, but we want more,” said the head of the gay-rights group Garden State Equality. “It is progress but it’s not the final goal.” Perhaps they could do a promotional tie-in with Snickers.

• Nicole Richie was charged with her second DUI, which means she could be facing jail time. Good luck finding a prison uniform that will fit her.

re: Nicole: I keep thinking of that scene in Private Benjamin (remember that one) where Goldie Hawn is looking over the Army uniforms and asks if it doesn't come in other colors.
