Not Quite Back Yet |
I’m not quite ready to be part of the blogging community yet. However as I was going through my old emails, sorting the wheat from the chaff, I found a bit of wild oat that I found amusing:
(Warning: Contains naughty words…:-)))
1. Ahhh…I see the fuck-up fairy has visited us again…
2. I don’t know what your problem is, but I’ll bet it’s hard to pronounce.
3. How about never? Is never good for you?
4. I see you’ve set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public.
5. I’m really easy to get along with once you people learn to worship me.
6. I’ll try being nicer if you’ll try being smarter.
7. I’m out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message…
8. I don’t work here. I’m a consultant.
9. It sounds like English, but I can’t understand a word you’re saying.
10. I can see your point, but I still think you’re full of shit.
11. I like you. You remind me of me when I was young and stupid.
12. You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers.
13. I have plenty of talent and vision. I just don’t give a damn.
14. I’m already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth.
15. I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you.
16. Thank you. We’re all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view.
17. The fact that no one understands you doesn’t mean you’re an artist.
18. Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.
19. What am I? Flypaper for freaks!?
20. I’m not being rude. You’re just insignificant.
21. It’s a thankless job, but I’ve got a lot of Karma to burn off.
22. Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.
23. No, my powers can only be used for good.
24. You sound reasonable… Time to up the medication.
25. Who me? I just wander from room to room.

Control |
This is the kind of thing that can happen if we aren’t diligent to our rights as individuals against those within the majority. The Taliban isn’t necessarily wearing a turban and carrying a gun.

Another Reason to Boycott Wal-Mart |
From South Bend Tribune and found by me on Joe My God a New York blogger who covers queer news.
Wal-Mart Bans Gay Couple For Shoplifting (Even Though They Didn’t Do It)
A Wal-Mart in rural Indiana detained two gay attorneys and their two adopted special needs sons and then banned them from patronizing any store in the chain, even though video records proved that the couple had not shoplifted the packages of Bic lighters that employees claimed they had. One of the men had used the store’s self-checkout lane and security cameras clearly showed him scanning the items in question. According to the couple, Wal-Mart security threatened them in the store’s detention room and made disparaging remarks about their “lifestyle.”
Even after their innocence was proven by the store’s own surveillance, Wal-Mart refused to compensate the couple for their ruined frozen groceries and is even demanding that they pay ten times the value of the items they were wrongly accused of stealing. The couple says they can’t sue, because Wal-Mart historically “plays hardball” on such actions and they don’t have “a couple of million dollars” to proceed.

Someone Once Told Me
“467This warm and friendly volunteer, with a penchant for pancakes, was keen to have his picture taken, but slightly nervous about having it done exactly here. This was because the bench was opposite where he worked, and he was a bit shy about being spotted for his modelling debut. He says this quote “encapsulates everything about the mind”. Taken in Shoreditch, London. His rather swish blog can be found here http://www.litmanlive.co.uk/”
