Crappy Bus Service

Thank God I don't live in Arizona. If I lived there and I drove as poorly as I do here (and how could my driving skills possibly improve simply by crossing state lines?) I'd undoubtedly have to rely on public transportation. Sun City, Arizona apparently didn't think it was at all odd to name their transit system SCAT (Sun Cities Area Transit System). See link above.

A New Ideology of Evil

The pope, in his new book, declared gay marriage part of "a new ideology of evil" that is insidiously threatening society. He stated "It is legitimate and necessary to ask oneself if this is not perhaps part of a new ideology of evil, perhaps more insidious and hidden, which attempts to pit human rights against the family and against man." He then drooled and wet his gown. Poor guy. Can't he be forced into early, er, exceedingly late retirement? And how does one pit "human" rights against the rights of "man?" Apparently human rights are part of those "special" rights we're always clamoring on about.

Good Night Gonzo

I just read that Hunter S. Thompson killed himself. There will never be another like him (maybe that's a good thing). A moment of silence, please, for the crazy mother fucker who influenced and confused millions.

Praise the Lord and Pass the Dental Dam!



Lesbians around the world were heard screaming in excitation tonight as "The L Word" returned for it's second season. The wife and I hunkered down for an early evening in anticipation. As if that wasn't enough Marge's sister Patty came out on "The Simpsons!" We always knew Patty was a muff diver but now it's official. I'm sure the folks at Focus on the Family will have a full plate in the coming weeks, what with Spongebob and Patrick being upstaged by a real life (albeit cartoon) lesbian.

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary !

Yesterday was the one year anniversary of the mass gay marriage that took place in San Francisco, which my wife and I were a part of. The mayor, Gavin Newsom, held a little shindig for us and the other 4000+ couples who married at City Hall last year. It was wonderful to be a part of such a historic event. Mayor Newsom congratulated the crowd and told us "This door is open and nothing the president of the United States can do will ever shut this door. It's no longer acceptable for politicians to come to you every election cycle and to ask for your money and to ask for your support and then say it's too much, too soon. Civil unions are not good enough. Civil unions are not marriage. Marriage is marriage." Perhaps the finest piece of advice he gave the crowd was this: "Don't give up the fight. Don't feel discouraged. Don't listen to the president of the United States." Indeed. Let the fight continue.

It's Almost Friday!


Hot Diggety!

Trailer Park Wife Swap

I'm embarrassed to admit that I even watched this TV show, but I did. And I'm here to write about it.

Last night's "Wife Swap" featured a conservative Christian interracial couple and a lesbian couple. When the poor little Christian woman had to live for a week in the lesbians' house o' sin all hell broke loose.

The first cardinal sin occurred when the nice Christian woman was subject to the lesbians' aberrant "alternative lifestyle" which involved eating most meals off of paper plates! Gasp! I know! I can't believe they had the nerve to even show that on national TV...in front of children no less! And of course, because lesbians can't cook, they ate microwaved meals.

The lesbian who lived with the Christian family for a week got a much better deal. She didn't even have to mow the lawn! Heck, that's what Christian children are for!

At one point on the show the Christian woman made the tired argument about "I'm black and can't change that but you choose to live your life as a sexual freak."

The whole episode was very dramatic and white trashy, which would have made for wonderful entertainment had it not featured real-life lesbians who were whipped and dragged through the moral mud by Mrs. Right Wing Christian. She actually accused the lesbian who swapped places with her of being a "sexual predator." I must've been away from the TV when she was molesting the children so I can't say what really happened.

All entertainment aside, unfortunately this was perfect ammunition for the Right Wing Nutjobs in their maniacal drive to outlaw gay marriage.

But hey, isn't sweeps week coming up soon?

SF is Hotter Than LA

A poll commissioned by the San Francisco Convention and Visitors Bureau found that residents in both San Francisco and Los Angeles think the city by the bay is more (romantic.) The poll also found that Los Angeles is more romantic than both Cleveland and Buffalo. Now you know.

Caffeinated Beer! Posted by Hello

Mmmmm....Caffeinated Beer!

Because there's nothing better than a hyperactive drunk. This morning while waiting for the bus I saw this ad for a new beer. Not only does it contain caffeine, something much needed in an alcoholic beverage, but it also contains ginseng, guarana extract and natural flavor. Nothing says refreshing like some natural flavor and ginseng.
