#3 Both changed their names after beginning gender reassignment.

Jennifer (formerly known as Jason) and Andrew (formerly known as Anne) obviously have issues of their own. Guess they took the name "Unite Here" a little too seriously.

#4 This is like the time in the late 90s when ACORN was trying to get a proposition to raise the minimum wage in LA to something $9/hour. It turns out they weren't even paying the existing minimum wage to their employees. They argued (with a straight face) that if they paid that much, they couldn't afford to hire enough people to get the job done.

#6 He who's becoming a she meets he that's becoming a she. The sparks fly, they fall in love, they sue the corrupt union...

#7 I'm pretty sure I heard about it on Larry Elder when I was living there. That would have meant May '99 at the latest.

Then again, memory is the second thing to go.
