Most refused to reveal how much they were making, but one said they generally received between $10-$35 an hour. <\/p>\n<p>Kathleen Perrin from California and Jason Hewett from Georgia were the first non-placeholders in line, in the 14th and 15th spots. To get that far up, they had to arrive Friday morning  at 8:00 a.m. and endure a Saturday night of cold rain. They said a water-resistant tarp was a must, as was a sleeping bag, a comfortable chair, an umbrella, sunscreen, a flashlight, clean clothes, snacks, a phone charger and &#8230; binder clips. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Binder clips! That&#8217;s the secret to line-standing,&#8221; said Perrin, showing off her gear. &#8220;Especially if you have to have a tarp, the tiniest bit of wind blows it up. So you can secure everything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Kathleen Perrin, Jason Hewett and Brandon Dawson.\" src=\"http:\/\/i.huffpost.com\/gen\/2883738\/thumbs\/o-PERRIN-570.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div><em>Kathleen Perrin, Jason Hewett and Brandon Dawson.<\/em><\/div>\n<p>\nThis binder clip pro tip was gleaned from past experience waiting in line for marriage equality. Hewett said he befriended Perrin in 2013, when they were trying to get tickets for the oral arguments against the Defense of Marriage Act and California&#8217;s Proposition 8. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I met a <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/?mp_code=akftr\">girl<\/a> the last time we were here,&#8221; said Hewett. &#8220;The first thing she did was sat down, put her tarp out and grabbed a giant bag of binder clips.

Lee III, and their neighbors, Jason Turner and Robert Listerman. Scarborough and Lee have been together for 14 years and married in Boston in 2013. Turner and Listerman have been together for 19 years and married about a year and a half ago, right on the steps of the Supreme Court. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are a <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/couples\/?mp_code=akftr\">couple<\/a> of things that come with marriage equality. It&#8217;s important at birth, it&#8217;s important at death and important for securing yourself for the unknowns of the future,&#8221; said Scarborough, discussing what it&#8217;s like to have a marriage that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/2015\/03\/04\/alabama-gay-marriage_n_6800138.html\" target=\"_hplink\">many officials in his state don&#8217;t recognize<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"C.A.

Lee III, Patrick Scarborough, Jason Turner and Robert Listerman.<\/em><\/div>\n<p>\nThe line in front of the Supreme Court was a reunion for many people there. Perrin and Hewett were catching up with Frank Colasonti Jr. and James Barclay Ryder from Birmingham, Michigan, who were also there two years ago and were Nos. 17 and 18 this time. <\/p>\n<p>Colasonti and Ryder married last year after 26 years together. They were the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theoaklandpress.com\/general-news\/20140322\/birmingham-couple-takes-vows-in-oakland-countys-first-same-sex-marriage\" target=\"_hplink\">first couple to get married<\/a> in Oakland County on March 22, 2014, when same-<a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/couples\/?mp_code=akftr\">sex<\/a> marriage became legal in the state. <\/p>\n<p>The two of them were some of the lucky ones. After just a few hours, an appeals court <a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonblade.com\/2014\/03\/25\/appeals-court-halts-michigan-sex-marriages\/\" target=\"_hplink\">halted same-sex marriages in the state<\/a> and later upheld the state&#8217;s ban, leading to the Supreme Court case Tuesday. <\/p>\n<p>Colasonti and Ryder, however, were part of the group that sued the state of Michigan to recognize their marriage. A judge ruled that the state had to recognize the 300 same-<a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/couples\/?mp_code=akftr\">sex<\/a> marriages performed during that brief window of opportunity and in February, Gov.
