Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

(X-post in Bitches) From the NY trial courts:

Two days after George W. Bush renewed his call for a federal constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, a court in New York has just ruled that gay men and lesbians in that state must be granted the right to marry.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

In non-boxing news, NY rules for gay marriage.

The boxers I know -- admittedly, mostly amateurs -- are all fine folk. (It's the promoters who are sleaze.) (And Tyson. But that's a Tyson issue.)

Not just you, and quite distinct from shrinkage.

The decision is 75+ pages, but very read-able.

Now, now. Technically San Fran was first, even if it didn't last.

No, no. Much different circumstances.
