I have no alcohol. I should have planned better.

NY Times map, with something like 1% reporting in each state, has Obama lead in New Hampshire and McCain lead in Kentucky. ION, completely meaningless results.

I hate waiting.

Go here and click to picture number 18.

Something about the stark beauty of this shot made me teary.

Photo #15 is pretty damn awesome, I tell you what.

And then #20: That's Compton, y'all. Awesome.

I love the pictures of smiling people standing in long lines to vote.

Academic job, Vortex? (Go you!)

ugh a guest just insisted on telling me why she voted for prop 8 (to keep men from molesting little boys) despite my repeated protesting that I didn't want to discuss it because I am one of "those people". When it finally sunk in what I was saying she said, "oh well I think gay women are OK." I came so close to telling her how glad I am my vote will cancel hers out.

I never knew the molesters were interested in marrying the little boys?

yeah but there's no point arguing with crazy people. It wastes your time and annoys the pig.

I voted absentee, Evidnetally there weren't lines by lunch time most places, lots of earlier voting around here.

I kinda... stepped in it I think with two of my co workers, in my same department. I was on break and they were talking about Amendment 2 and how they hoped it passed (it's the same as Prop 8). And they kinda looked at me and I said "oh I'm against that."

And they kinda looked at me and I said "Well I think anybody who wants to get married should and the way the amendment is worded it could invalidate current common law marriages and partnerships between opposite and same sex couples."

They countered with domestic partnerships and living wills and I explained that it wasn't the same and that they can be challenged and marriage comes with rights and I didn't think Seperate but equal was right.

But it finally ended. They grew up being taught that marriage is a man and woman and that's what they think. I also mentioned that some of the couples who were the first to get married in Canada and California had been together 40 or 50 years (I was fuzzy on the exact years) and when they were first together they had to worry about physical threats, losing their job, maybe being arrested. just for being together.

Anyway I'm not sure if they will be friendly with me but I'll see.

This is why people climb towers with loaded weapons.

I think to some people, those homosexuals are like, theoretical monsters. This is the second time someone found it hard to believe that I, standing right in front of them, could possibly be gay. Maybe they can sense that I love the cock.
