A slightly exhausting day

I had a nice surprise this afternoon. I got an email from a new advertiser who wanted to take out a quarter page ad for a year in Erie Gay News. Yippee! They had already laid the ad out, but the dimensions were rotated 90 degrees. I emailed them back and they were able . . . → Read More: A slightly exhausting day

Mixed message on a sign

So, I am driving home, and I notice one of those large PA Lottery signs with the big numbers indicating how many millions the jackpot. Then I looked below that and saw that they had a compulsive gambling 800 number hotline. It just struck me as an amusing juxtaposition.

French woman with rare facial tumor, who had sought euthanasia, found dead – International Herald Tribune

How horrible! I really feel for this woman. I don’t think that people should choose to end it lightly, however, I think that there are definitely circumstances where the decent, compassionate and humane thing is to let someone go.

My mom has been pretty clear that if she is in a vegetative state . . . → Read More: French woman with rare facial tumor, who had sought euthanasia, found dead – International Herald Tribune

Trautman just doesn’t get it

What a clueless creep! Bishop Trautman does not get it. One of his priests is let off for molesting a minor on a technicality, and his response is to start bashing the folks who reported it about ethics?? They sidestep talking about the real issue – an adult taking advantage of someone who . . . → Read More: Trautman just doesn’t get it

Sen. Jane Earll opposes SB 1250

I am very sorry that this made it out of the Judiciary Committee, but I am thrilled that Sen. Jane Earll was quoted as opposing this. I just left her Erie office a voice mail to thank her. (Always good manners to say thanks to folks for doing the right thing.)

Mega tired

It was a fairly full day. I still feel overwhelmed at work. I am not sure whether I am making progress or not.

We had a fairly small get together for the Greet ‘N Chat, which included a visit from US Congressional candidate Kathy Dahlkemper. It ended up okay. I felt badly that I . . . → Read More: Mega tired

St. Patrick’s Day parades to run into Holy Week roadblock

I find this oddly amusing. Although I was technically baptized Catholic, I have never identified as Christian in my entire life. I am also a lifelong teetotaler, so that doesn’t cramp my style either.

Basically, the guy I don’t listen to anyway is telling me not to do the thing I don’t do. . . . → Read More: St. Patrick’s Day parades to run into Holy Week roadblock

Long day

It was a fairly long day. I worked on catching up on the usual geek and domestic stuff. We met about the Pride Picnic at 2 PM. Someone had asked about adding a talent show to the other aspects of the picnic. After some discussion, we figured that we would go for it. There . . . → Read More: Long day

Stand up comedy at the Zodiac Dinor and a GAY lamp

Technorati Tags: Zodiac Dinor

My friend did his first night of stand up comedy tonight at the Zodiac Dinor. He had been meaning to do it for a while. There were 4 comedians, and 2 of them were first timers. Big kudos to Uncle Pete for trying something new!

New photos

So, here is the new hair color. Please don’t laugh too hard. But my stylist and a few of his friends (ranging from 19 to 38)  say that it takes 10 years off me. (Which probably works out to make me only late middle aged.)

Ken and I will probably go out in a . . . → Read More: New photos
