Surrogacy cases are cluster of people. Likewise, at my current favorite Disneyland attraction, the Tiki Room singalong is a whole flock of ridiculous 1960s animatronic birds of various cultural archetypes. The birds hosting the show are Jose, Michael, Fritz, and Pierre. Each speaks with an accent arguably from Mexico, Ireland, Germany, and France. Also present are…

At Gay Days Anaheim, Wil and I wasted no time in posing for a photo with a Moana-impersonator and…

It’s fair to say that in Peter Pan, Captain Hook is a single man. However, let us pretend that after the end of the movie, Captain Hook marries Wendy, Tiger Lily, or maybe even Mr. Smee.

Michael Jackson is still popping up in the news. On July 20th, the current co-executors of his estate said to The Post, “The music of the greatest entertainer that ever lived, Michael Jackson, is in the hands of the number one publishing company in the world.” The executors were referring to a renewed deal between…

Most homeowners have heard of umbrella insurance. Sometimes it is offered as an add-on to an automobile insurance policy. But, how many individuals purchase umbrella insurance? Not enough. If one of my clients is involved in a fatal car accident where they survive but the other driver does not, umbrella insurance may come into play….
