  • A look that's bullet proof -- fashion's use of military styles takes a turn I could not have fathomed. Meanwhile, fall 2010 menswear collections, I have very mixed feelings about you.

  • Children in focus in NJ same-sex marriage case.

  • Gay rights to be part of Nepal's charter.

  • Bet this story will be ugly and all about bigotry when the whole thing comes out: plane "forced down" because of some sort of "disruptive passenger" and "prayer beads."

  • For those of you wishing to see Dogboy & Justine, my one-act about dominatrixes and head-injuries, tickets are now available from The Secret Theater website.



    Dogboy & Justine is part of Act Five: One Acts and has made it past the first round of judging. Now it runs with five other plays through Saturday night. At the end of the performances each night you will have a chance to vote for your favorite plays! After Saturday's performance a winner will be declared and hey, for $15 you get five plays!

    So:

    Go here: https://www.ovationtix.com/trs/cal/1681/1262377800000/prm/ to buy tickets for this week and please vote for Dogboy & Justine.

    The theater is located in Queens, one stop from Manhattan on multiple train lines. It's part of a larger arts center with galleries and studios and stuff, so it could be a fun outing!

    I find it rather bizarre that Nepal will grant gay couples the right to marry but our country is still struggling with it.

    You're asking for sense, sir. ;)

    Oh, I know not to expect miracles, I just have this quixotic idea of civil rights for all people being one of the things that this country is all about. *sigh*

    It really is a lovely thought, a good ideal to strive for. It's a bit like communism, though; the theory has potential, but then people get involved and there goes Utopia. :\

    Well, it's why the Declaration of Independence says a "more" perfect union rather than a perfect union. No such thing exists, and if it did, no one would probably want to live in it.

    Oh, see, someone told you gay folks are people....

    *snerk*

    I'm reminded of a line from Family Guy:

    Women are not people, they are devices built by our Lord Jesus Christ for our entertainment.

    Sadly, I think a lot of people in this country take that line seriously.

    They're Communists and believe everyone is equal under the law no matter who you are.

    When the monarchy was abolished, the federal government retired the King, as in, they fired him.
    He's got a retirement fund last I hears, though that could be a rumour.

    Not that that is the actual answer, but it is a part of it, I think.

    Well, I guess that's better than the retirement plan Czar Nicholas II and his family got.

    Maybe it's part of being mostly Buddhist?
