My friend Aaron is going to Holland for an internship for his Ph.D. in chemistry so he had a going away party last weekend. There was great food, great music and a lot of fun people with a good mix of gay and hetero folks in San Leandro.
Some dancing (that I actually participated in)!
Landlords divorced after decades and foreclosed, basically. I can’t buy the place, so unless a family member comes through with a cash offer, we have to move anyway by beginning of April.
I’m traveling to Phurfest and hoping to see friends and family in Arizona in late April/early May. It’s a state I’ve never stepped foot in, to my knowledge, but which my family has a long history in, apparently. I’ve seen a lot of relatives going back generations move and return to Arizona, and I know my dad lived there for a time as a kid. Ancestry.com has helped prove the links I have to the area, but I’m also looking forward to some pool parties and dry heat, which is one of the reasons I moved back to the West Coast.
I’m sure the check was deposited before she released the statement today.
It’s no surprise that she would support her lesbian sister and concur with her father, but somehow this hypocrite whose family still profits off of the wars in the Middle East, still holds herself out as some kind of new age Repub.
Doubt the Palin clan knew actress portraying mentally retarded character on Family Guy has Downs Syndrome before they started lambasting it. Before the Palins had a stage, the “Petarded” episode, where the main character was found to have a very low IQ, didn’t get much flack. Apparently SOME of the letter that the actress wrote to the New York Times was published, but not the part that accused Sarah of carrying her son around “like a loaf of bread” for sympathy votes!
I think I like Judy Sheindlin (which is her husband’s last name, anyway) more when interviewed on Larry King than on her own, insipid show. Sarah Silverman pointed out just this kind of self-hatred among people with ethnic names (in these cases Jewish) when she had a show within her show wherein they renamed her Sarah Saint Clair. I’m always a little miffed when people drop anything that could be construed as ethnic to achieve what they perceive to be better mainstream popularity. Indeed, when Sarah was on the View the other day, she was asked about her Jewishness by Joy Behar and Sarah said, “I can’t help it, it just oozes out of my pores.”
So kathlicks in DC would rather let orphans languish and remain homeless than give them to a potential gay couple b ending it’s foster care program in that city? Klassik! And on Ash Wednesday they decide to announce this, no less. I wonder how many of those kids are going to grow up still respecting the kathlik church after this?
Can’t get “Midnight Train to Georgia” out of my head….She’d rather live in his world than without him ….in hers? “I’ve got to go, I’ve got to go…” Years later Gladys Knight did a cover of “Superwoman,” so I guess she redeemed herself.
