Hi Chuck,
a very, very happy New Year to you. Let's hope it's one where we see positive changes on the gay marriage front. I am sorry to say but Americans are so parochial and also hypocritical. Carry a gun, fine that's legal, marry someone you love is not, Hmmm funny old country.
Move to europe, with your style and sense of humour you would be welcomed with open arms !!!
Take care and enjoy seeing out the old and seeing in the new.
Might I suggest Santorini as a final destination for you. An amazing Greek island, wiith the most beautiful sun sets in the world, and a totally incredible gay night life scene. When I was there, I lived in the gay bars as they were way more fun. Not to mention a whole island of stunning Greek Gods of men, sigh !!!!! OK enough now, I am drooling just remembering !!!
