Of course, this ruling will be appealed on one level or another
Isn't there only one level above the 9th Circuit? The Supremes?

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

All is well that ends in pizza.
The only appeal would be to the Supreme Court. And then it would have to be one of the 1% of submitted cases to be accepted. By most measures a District Court of Appeals decision is the precedent-setting one, until and unless the SC picks it up.

Heh, what David said, only wordier.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
They could appeal to have it heard by the entire 9th Circuit.
The ruling is good, but it's very narrow, applying only to the had-the-right-then-revoked-it situation in California. They specifically declined to rule on the broader issue of the constitutionality of banning same-sex marriage.

I do not want to go down to San Diego to deal with my family tomorrow. Alas, it's what I'll be doing.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Late coming in, but de-guiltify Omnis! It's one strike. Unless you had multiple speakers built into the set in such a way that not having someone super skilled could result in carpenters being blown up while doing scenic strike, you really didn't need to be there. There are further days.
In completely unrelated news, I am ON VACATION! At my Dad's house just had a 1/4 glass of really nice wine along with some cheese and crackers for lunch. Woot! Totally getting ready for a nice french island. His glasses are rather large. I might be slightly buzzed. Listening to Wait Wait Don't Tell Me while surfing the internet. Life is really good right now in my world. Let me share the glow with all of you! Beams and rays of buzzed awesomeness to all!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
The ruling is good, but it's very narrow, applying only to the had-the-right-then-revoked-it situation in California.
But isn't that precisely the issue on which everything turned? That the constitutional right had been revoked by popular vote?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Has he asked to compare Daddy's tummy-print yet?
Oh, Connie. Why do you want my son to know disappointment? So, so many reasons why that ain't happening.
But I have been giving a fuck when it ain't my turn since 1973. Also, Stringer really is awesome.
Probably my favourite character so far. (Just ahead of Omar and Bubbles. I rather like William Rawls too.) I just don't see Marlo's crew having the same depth as the Barksdale people.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

All good choices!
I rather like William Rawls too.
That's a curious one, though. I'd go with Carver or Bunny instead. Wait, or Lester. Prop Joe. Uh. There are a lot of good characters.

I could never really get into Marlo.
