I haven't had a proper vacation since 2002. We've had a few weekend trips, but not a real getaway with sand and sea gulls and she crab bisque. You know, the beach. Today, three things fell into place and we went for a plan that had been roiling around in our minds for a few […]
Keeping with my theme of today's idiots, I must nominate Randy Cohen – “The Ethicist” for the New York Times, a feature I usually like. Today, he tackles WHEN to out a transgender date. Not when that person should disclose, but what a shocked date must do in response to learning this information. No handbills, […]
LezGetReal.com has something up on the Pentagon pushing back on the LGBT community's outcry over the ridiculous survey the Pentagon has mailed to 400,000 members of the military. Pentagon Press Secretary Geoff Morrell said about the stories that have resulted from the leak of the 103-question survey that many “have been inflammatory in the worst […]
Tom Corbett is a major ass. If this is his view of Pennsylvania's labor force (the “working man”), just IMAGINE what he thinks about people relying on the safety net for survival. From Capitol Ideas: According to our podcasting pal, Scott Detrow, of Pennsylvania Public Radio,the two-term attorney general told reporters that “the jobs are […]
The evolution of mainstream Protestant churches continues to intrigue and bore me. I love that the dialogue continues, but I'm also of the opinion that its 2010 already … let's get it resolved so we can fight poverty and war and all that biblically based stuff.
I'm a bit slothful. After the holiday, we bought a Wii Fit Plus to make exercise as easy as possible. I used it sporadically, but in May it really caught my attention. I began using it 3 or 4x per week. Then I stopped drinking pop (2 lapses in 8 weeks). Then I filled our […]
What a joke. The Pentagon survey sent to nearly half a million members of the military plays right into fears that the troops will be forced to encounter homosexuals in the shower. http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/10191/1071838-84.stm The Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, a nonpartisan legal services group providing counsel to troops discharged under the policy, said the survey's design […]
EQuality Giving, an LGBTQ equality campaign fund, has included two Pennsylvania candidates among their lists. This project is a viable complement to the ongoing call for LGBTQ persons to stop donating to the party, from the DNC to the ACDC, and focus on the candidates who support equality, rather than a party which is wishy-washy […]
Interesting news from Boston. In an enormous victory for same-sex marriage, a federal judge in Boston today (Thursday, July 8) ruled, in two separate cases, that a critical part of the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) unconstitutional. In one challenge brought by the state of Massachusetts, Judge Joseph Tauro ruled that Congress violated the […]
Every year, I dread this holiday. I hate the firecrackers, the crowds and the bickering. This year, we were proactive and had a joint family/friend cookout on Saturday evening. We had about 20 people throughout the whole evening which worked out well since we only had 17 chairs. They were ostensibly there to see our […]
