What is it about Hollywood actors who want to use thier fame to advance a cause? I dont want to know about anyones gay wedding or even thier private life. Keep it to yourself ! If I was Shatner I would be thankful I wasnt invited. !

Brad Altman But Altman beat him to the punch. “We were at home in the kitchen and we had the TV going, and when the word came down suddenly Brad got on his knees in front of me and I said ‘What are you doing?’ He said, ‘George, will you marry me?’ I said ‘Yes. You beat me to it. I meant to ask you.”

That puts me in mind of a famous Motown song on the same subject:

You Beat Me To The Punch-Mary Wells

That day I first saw you
Whoa-whoa, passing by
I wanted to know your name
But I-I was much too shy

But I was looking (lookin’) at you so hard
Until you must have had a hunch
(You must have had a hunch)
So, you came up to me
And asked me my name

You beat me to the punch
(You beat me to the punch) that time
You beat me to the punch
(You beat me to the punch)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
You beat me to the punch
(You beat me to the punch)

Oh-oh-whoa, after I hadn’t known you
For what seems like a long, long, time
I wanted, wanted to ask you
Would you please, please be mine?

Whenever you came around
(You came) my heart would pound
So, you must have had a hunch
(You must have had a hunch)
So, you came up to me
You asked me to be yours

You beat me to the punch
(You beat me to the punch) one more time
You beat me to the punch
(You beat me to the punch)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
You beat me to the punch, yeah
(You beat me to the punch)

Since I love you
I thought you would be true
And love me tender
So, I let my heart surrender to you-hoo
Yes, I did

But I found out beyond a doubt
One day boy, you were a playboy
Who would go away
And leave me, blue-ooo

So, I ain’t gonna wait around (go around)
For you to put me down (what you oughta do)
This time I’m gonna play my hunch
(I’ll be here, you can blame my stunt)
Then walk away this very day

And beat you to the punch
(And beat you to the punch) this time (go!)
I’ll beat you to the punch, yes I will (go!)
(I’ll beat you to the punch)

FADES-

Let you know, now
(I’ll beat you to the punch) how little it feels
(Why don’t you)
Ho-ho-ho
(I’ll beat you to the punch)
Ho-ho-ho.

I’m happy for George. Seriously, I am. He’s marrying somebody he cares about – not everybody can say that.

As for no Shat – please, it then become a double ceremony, Gorge would be marrying his lover and Shat would be marrying himself. That’s the true scope of Shat’s ego.

But God bless them, I love all of them. I’m just sorry that D. Kelley and J. Doohan are no longer with us to wish Takai good luck and smooth sailing.

Japanese-Mexican food? I grew up in Los Angeles, eating a diverse range of food–occasionally at the same time, so if I attended the wedding, I would turn into a full-blown eating machine!

#97 — was it that obvious? ;-)

Okay, so, in all fairness, from #96’s link it is clear we have to include Austin, Texas among the locations where Mexican-Japanese fusion is already a done deal. Also, I recall from my visit to NYC a couple of years ago that the concept is well established there, too.

96. Dierna are you serious? I live there. I love Sushi but I’m not not a fan of Tex Mex.

The CA Supreme Ct has just denied the request to stay the Gay Marriage Ruling until after the Nov. election. That means that the way is cleared for George and Brad to marry!

Thanks for that. It looks like the most apparent crossover is on the sushi and sashimi menu, but it all looks good.

#90

Now don’t go showing off your Cali cred. We all know Californians will eat anything. (This was just a little joke, for the humor impaired patrolling the site)

Congrats to George and Brad!!! :D

No surprise that Shatner’s not invited since they don’t get along at all.

As for Japanese-Mexican fusion….Hmm…sounds fascinating…. Heh…there’s a Japanese-Mexican restauraunt in Austin, Texas called Sushi Caliente! You can see the menu at their website…fuuuuunky! I wanna try a Tex-Mex Maki roll! *lol*
