1. I heart that guy

[JackBeck]

5. In 2009 he publicly shared his full support for our right to marry in NJ.

I've been in love with his progressive politics ever since.

I have to admit, regrettably, that as a full-blooded Jersey Boy he was never on my radar (hello...Madonna fan!) but I've always been intrigued by his celebrity since a young kid.

6. What I love most about Bruce is that he appears to be a typical bad ass boy from Jersey but

He is really, shall we say, evolved. And I say that with the utmost affection towards Jersey where I spend my summers!

7. Happyhippychick, no offense taken, and glad to hear you enjoy summers at The Shore ;)

I was raised in South Jersey, in the Philly suburbs, so we have a different take on the Jersey thing.

We've been spending our summers recently in Asbury Park, which is rich with diversity. Bruce would be proud.

8. I go to Cape May in the summer, it is literally my favorite place on earth. I am going to check out

Asbury Park this summer, saw a program about the development going in there.

2. One of my heroes!

11. One of our best straight allies. n/t

3. Springsteen is the best!!

Heard him in concert recently!

[JackBeck]

10. Saw Springsteen for the first time last summer at the Meadowlands.

Concert delayed until 10 pm due to thunderstorms. He played until almost 3 am and it was his birthday.

Rumor has it that Paul McCartney was scheduled to perform but due to the weather delay backed out.

Nonetheless, great show.

13. The Boss has never given a bad show!

I mean NEVER. How many performers of his age and experience can boast of that?

[myrna minx]

4. The boss knows best.

Hiya Jack!

[JackBeck]

9. Proud to know allies like The Boss and myrna minx.

Love you tons!

[myrna minx]

12. What a year it's been! Love to you too, my friend.

Onward to full equality.

Here's a little Margaret Cho to bring the party:

14. Moral of the story...if your gay friend is into you...don't punch! Say 'thank you'.
