"Apparently, the National Organization for Marriage is asking businesses to "stay neutral" in regards to the MN Marriage Amendment. So let us go on record here, in full defiance of the hateful people involved in NOM, that Muggsy's Beans fully supports gay marriage and looks forward to defeating this horrible piece of legislation."

I'm headed over there to buy some coffee!
