After being denied a marriage license in Massachusetts, Wendy Becker and Mary Norton challenged a 1913 state law that prohibits out-of-state residents from marrying if the union would not be permitted in their home state.

7. Clearly another sign of the coming Apocalypse!
But at least for today, it's a beautiful sunny autumn day here
