Ok, in the interest of being thorough...
That "gay bill" (sounds like a bird native to Key West) I yapped about has a wrinkle I didn't catch the first time. It allows for transgendered people to use whichever restroom fits their perceived sexual identity. I'm not putting transgendered in quotation marks because they're not fictional characters ( Read more... ) -
*Siiiggghhhhh*
The Colorado senate is about to vote on a bill granting "protected class" status based on sexual orientation, specifically in public places. Our own Focus on The Family responded with a radio ad starting as follows: (Girl's voice) "Mom - some guy in a dress just came into the girls' bathroom!"
1) Cross-dressers are among the least predatory people ( Read more... ) -

I'm back and ready to bitch a little
A few hours ago, Angela and I were psyched to go to a seminar on Chinese adoption. The agency hosting it comes pretty highly recommended to us. We got there and noticed nooooo other cars. The church was locked with no info at the door about the meeting. Right place, right time, but nope. After fifteen minutes, we gave up and went home in near ( Read more... ) -
Did they just not read the news?
Today's Parade magazine features a cover story on Benazir Bhutto: "I am what the terrorists most fear."
Ummmm, guys................about a week and a half ago, remember?
Allowing for the lead time between submitting articles and the printing deadline, they could've replaced the Bhutto story with an Oprah homage. Or, at least they could amend the ( Read more... ) -
'Scuze meeee, while I kiss the sky
Leaving work today, I saw one of the most beautiful skies ever since I came to Colorado. To the west, the Rockies were in silhouette against blazing red. The sky all around me was a mix of dark blue and bronze clouds. I wanted to raise a sword into the air and yell something cool from "300". In fact, a short story took shape as I gazed across ( Read more... ) -
You say you want random, mundane stuff? Welcome!
Well, the kidneystone seems to have disappeared. I didn't have any AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHH! experiences Passing The Stone*, so it must have disintegrated.

Hooow does it FEEEEEEL?
(With apologies to Bob Dylan)
to be weary to the bone?
Until you pick up the phone,
drag you wife from sleep at friggin' 1 am,
hyperventilate until you're as pale as a ghost,
have the ambulance come to your house and then have your wife drive you to the hospital to save $700-$1000 on an ambulance ride?

FINALLY, I'm in the club!
AT LAST, I've gotten one of those African scam emails. I feared maybe I wasn't worthy of laundering money for an exiled millionaire.
I filed this with the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). I just don't want some 73-year-old widow losing three grand on this crap if I can play any role against that. Also, I don't like crooks using The ( Read more... )
