George Takei, who played Captain Sulu on Star Trek, has come out as gay. It's quite a week when a major athlete (Swoopes) and a well-known actor both come out.
This is no surprise to me. When I worked at Maggiano's a couple years ago, I waited on Takei a couple times. With his deep, sultry voice, he was always a perfect gentlemen. And, he always had to order his pasta HIS way. I'm sooooo thrilled that he has decided to take the leap. While he's not exactly doing a lot of work these days, he's a cultural icon and people will take notice of this.
"The world has changed from when I was a young teen feeling ashamed for being gay," he said. "The issue of gay marriage is now a political issue. That would have been unthinkable when I was young."
Hi would you mind stating which blog platform you're working with? I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm having a tough time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely unique. P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
