Morgan Freeman didn't get more than a little scrape (and a blow job)in that auto accident he had last year, but I just read that the female passenger was partly to blame. I laughed out loud. Good for him, the randy old fart. No wonder his wife divorced him right after.
David Carradine went out exactly as the guy from Kung Fu should have gone out. Naked,his hand on his dick, a rope around his neck, in a Bangkok hotel room. If you gotta go, at 72, that's the way I say. To hell with all this laying down and moving on.
Let me crank out just one more before I go. Or better yet let me flip the car while getting a hummer.
One can laugh at the way Carradine died, but I assure you he already got the last laugh.
Go on with your bad self Grasshopper.

Monday madness
I heard on NPR this morning that there are people in Palau who don’t want to take in the gitmo detainees because they’re afraid of terrorism. I particularly liked the woman who said seomthing to the effect of “This is a Christian country and I’m afraid of terrorists. What if these terrorists are sent here and then the tourists are afraid to come?”
1.Let’s be primarily concerned with our pocketbooks, and NOT the Christian thing to do.
2.I, personally am more afraid to go to Palau right now because it IS a Christian nation than I would be after they’ve imported terrorists.
3.I always love how the religious among us can take the precepts of their religion and twist them to suit their current fears. Never mind that these people need a home, that they need to be taken in, and the no one else wants them either.
Hell no! let’s not do the good Christian thing and take them in and let the chips fall where they may. Nope! We’re gonna kick and scream cause we might not make our per capita income of $10000 if this happens. Seriously, when are Christians gonna actually be Christians again?
I read also, over at Proceed at your own risk that Richard Rothstein has taken the Bilerico project to task for their stance against a proposed march on Washington this fall. I’m with Richard on this one, as usual. The Bilerico Project is not a very interesting blog. They seemed full of promise when they started, they pushed all the right “Hate George Bush” political buttons, and then they became appeasers. I was disappointed but not surprised.
I stopped reading Bilerico project a long time ago. I commented that Joe Solmonese was worthless and had done nothing to further our cause, and they deleted my comment as a personal attack on him. Seriously, if you’re going to censor political comments on your blog, WHY, oh WHY are you blogging?
There are arguments for and against a proposed march on Washington in October. I realize I’m older, and that my generation saw the need and benefits of marching and the benefits they produced. But it’s a different day, and though I’d go, I doubt there will be much of a turnout because of the lack of cohesiveness on the part of the participants. It’s a shame really, a march produces all kinds of benefits that many of these people can’t imagine.
The federal level is where the attention needs to be focused, where the Constitutional wins will come from, and where we, ultimately must concentrate our efforts if we’re ever to secure our civil rights.
Alas, since we, as the keepers of gay history do NOTHING to educate our populace about the subject we’re doomed to repeat history and lose big time in this battle. Our ineptness in this regard will be our undoing. Maybe another generation will actually get their civil rights despite us.
